Chapter 999: Come Keep Me Company
Two letters together, as if neither would ever leave the other.
Yun Qiqi thought of this aspect of the name, and her ears unconsciously grew warm.
She looked for a long time, trying to remember something, but her mind was still completely blank.
Except for when she touched the bracelet, there was only a faint feeling of familiarity, nothing else.
In the end, Yun Qiqi could only give up and hang the bracelet back onto the little bunny’s neck.
Lying in bed, she started to look at the pink diamond ring that Yan Yan had forcefully put on her finger some time ago.
Coincidentally, a flash of lightning passed by, and the ring refracted an enchanting brilliance, looking particularly beautiful.
Truth be told, she quite liked the ring...
But the price for this, if only it could be exchanged for cat food, buying a ring was a complete waste.
Poverty-stricken Young Girl Qi thought so in her heart.
She closed her eyes for a while, almost falling asleep, and in a daze, she worried whether Yan Yan would climb in through the window to find her later, although the window seemed closed.
At this moment, her phone suddenly vibrated.
It was already one in the morning, who was calling her?
Yun Qiqi picked up her phone and saw just two words in the notes: Yan Yan.
In the middle of the night, what did he want to do? Moreover, being right next door, he actually called her.
After hesitating, she answered.
Putting it to her ear, there was no sound for a long time, only the man’s gentle breathing coming through, exceptionally clear in the night.
Yun Qiqi took the initiative to speak: "Is something wrong?"
A few seconds of silence.
Then came Yan Yan’s deep voice, with a bit of hoarseness: "Little Gua..."
This voice was extremely low, more painful than the usual laziness.
As if suppressing some emotion that was about to erupt.
Yun Qiqi noticed his unusual tone, and her mood disrupted from almost falling asleep was largely eased.
She frowned: "Yan Yan, what’s wrong with you?"
The man still didn’t speak, after a long while, he said: "I’m fine, just... kind of missing you."
The low voice sounded in her ear, carrying an unforgettable tenderness, Yun Qiqi’s eyelashes fluttered slightly.
She felt he didn’t seem fine, just from the voice itself, something seemed off.
But if he didn’t say, she couldn’t ask.
If it were before and he dared to call in the middle of the night just to say something like this, Yun Qiqi would definitely hang up immediately.
But now, for some reason, she didn’t have such thoughts, perhaps because today she felt more prone to soften her heart, or maybe faintly sensed... his mood seemed not very good.
Yan Yan seemed to adjust a bit, and asked her: "You haven’t slept yet?"
"Mmm," she replied softly, "I can’t really fall asleep."
Yan Yan continued to be silent, seeming to hesitate over something.
A few seconds later, he hesitantly spoke: "Then can you... come over and keep me company for a bit?"
Yun Qiqi: "...?"
She was stunned, her mind couldn’t quite catch up with his pace.
On the other side, Yan Yan seemed to realize his request was somewhat abrupt, after a long while, he continued softly: "Little Gua, I had a nightmare, kind of want to see you..."
Probably due to just waking up, his voice lost the usual nonchalance, instead becoming exceptionally gentle.
Carrying complex emotions, low, mixed with the sound of rain outside now piercing her ear.
Yun Qiqi’s heart trembled slightly, she hadn’t yet spoken.
Yan Yan seemed to think she wasn’t willing, then continued: "Forget it, sleep early, good night."
