After getting on with the enemy

Chapter 36 36

There is no soundproofing in the house, and the sound of the shower water running continues.It never stopped.

In the bathroom, Zhou Xiyun didn't feel uncomfortable, and didn't delay at all. After entering, he did whatever he wanted, wet his back with the water, and rubbed the foam on his body.

The current conditions are there, and there is no other way but to adapt as soon as possible. After all, I have to stay in the local area for two nights, and today is the first day.

Zhou Xiyun was meticulous and did not move quickly. It took a long time just to wash his hair, unlike Qiao Yan before, who quickly passed through the water and finished.

The temperature of the hot water is indeed high, and it is warm in the enclosed space.After washing her hair, Zhou Xiyun closed her eyes and faced the direction of the shower, raised her head slightly to face her face, raised her thin chin, turned around after a while, wiped her face, and took a deep breath...

Outside, Qiao Yan didn't dare to turn his head. He bowed his back and bent his legs, almost curling himself up like a shrimp.Listening to the voice behind her, her chest was beating fast, breathing brokenly, feeling very guilty for no reason.It's not as messy as usual, and I can't even do something casually.

Totally disappointing, extremely hopeless.

I didn't choose the right bed during the day, but I chose the one in the middle. I thought Zhou Xiyun wouldn't come, and it doesn't matter which side I sleep on, and it would be easier to be closer to the bathing place. Unexpectedly, it would be the opposite, but I found it for myself. trouble.

Qiao Yan tried not to pay attention to it, ignoring those voices.But it has little effect, and it is obviously self-deception.

The more you try to avoid it and imply that you don't want to pay attention, the more you can't do that, and the more you care about it.

Maybe it was a strange thought, Qiao Yan only felt that his hearing became more sensitive, and he could easily hear the sound of water splashing on the ground, patter—pat——

One after another, it grinds people's spirits.

Qiao Yan lowered his head like an ostrich, turned to the other side, blinked, and stared blankly at the carpet under the bed, looking at the cloud border pattern and the pattern in the middle, distracting his attention.

After a while, she fumbled to grab her mobile phone and bluetooth headset, and played music instead.

European and American rock songs are harsh, and the heavy metal style is too noisy.

Qiao Yan didn't like this type of song, but she still pinched her nose and "appreciated", whether it was good or not.

Behind him, as if he had sensed something, Zhou Xiyun paused and looked in the direction of his right hand.

It was also unclear, only a white figure could be seen, and the rest was gone. After a while, Zhou Xiyun also lowered his eyes and continued on his own, as if he didn't notice someone's abnormality.

After nearly 10 minutes, the shower was turned off.Room

There was no sound, and it was completely quiet.

Zhou Xiyun wiped off the water in silence, put on body lotion before putting on her nightgown, stayed inside for two or three minutes before going out.

The early summer nights in the town are cooler than those in the city, and it is suddenly a little cold with wet hair.Zhou Xiyun put the towel on his shoulders, pulled on the disposable cloth slippers and walked to the other bed, passing by Qiao Yan at a leisurely pace until he appeared in the other's field of vision.

Qiao Yan was still looking down at the screen, with his back to the bathroom from the beginning to the end, and he never glanced indiscriminately. He was more honest and disciplined than ever before, and he still maintained a posture of ignoring all the movements of the outside world.

She also covered her head with a pure white towel, blocking the sight on both sides, avoiding suspicion very thoughtfully, even covering her peripheral vision.

Zhou Xiyun asked out of curiosity, "Don't you blow your hair?"

The music was too noisy, Qiao Yan couldn't hear clearly, only saw the man's mouth open.Qiao Yan took off the earphones in a daze, and asked, "What?"

Zhou Xiyun repeated: "Your hair is not dry yet."

"Oh," Qiao Yan nodded without hesitation, and involuntarily scratched at the ends of her half-dried hair, "No hurry, it's still early, wait until I blow it."

Zhou Xiyun said, "The hair dryer is on the bathroom wall."

Qiao Yan replied: "I saw it."

Zhou Xiyun hummed, rummaged for the essence in the suitcase, and took out a bunch of miscellaneous things all at once.

Qiao Yan stretched his neck curiously, then retracted his eyes, turned off the music and exited the app, and put aside all the things he didn't use.Without looking at Zhou Xiyun, she asked, "What are you looking for?"

Zhou Xiyun replied, "Cream."

Qiao Yan nodded again, and the messenger kindly said, "If you didn't bring it, I have it here."

Don't be too obvious about looking for something to say, the attitude is completely opposite to that of the day, and at first he avoided it, but now there is always something wrong.Xu was disturbed by the incident just now, which made her unable to hold back her mentality now, her mind was floating, it was very unreal, so she had to babble a few words to turn the atmosphere back to the normal mode.

Zhou Xiyun sat on the side of the bed and looked at her probingly.

Sensing this gaze, Qiao Yan instinctively felt that he was talking too much, so he rubbed his hair repeatedly to cover up his weird thoughts. "Let me just say it casually, just forget it if you don't want it," she explained.

Qiao Yan: "Yes."

Zhou Xiyun also explained: "It's too troublesome."

Qiao Yan's lips moved, and when she was combing her hair, she touched her red-hot ears with her palms. She was even more restless. She appeared normal on the surface, but in fact, it seemed as if she had been exposed to the other party at a glance.

It wasn't because of refusal, but because he couldn't control himself, his mind became a mess, he couldn't move, and he didn't know how to face Zhou Xiyun.

The scene tonight was unusual. Although similar situations had never happened before, they were all accidents, but this time was different.Living in the same room in a waking state, even if the two beds are separated, without contact, but after thinking about it, it is still strange, it seems that Ping is too close?

Qiao Yan couldn't describe what kind of feeling it was, he just felt that it shouldn't be anywhere.It's not that I shouldn't, but I can't tell what kind of feeling it is.

In fact, ever since the incident in the small villa, the two of them started to keep a distance intentionally or unintentionally. They each took a step back in a very tacit understanding, returned to within the red line, and paid more attention to propriety. It was in the study of the Zhou family, even though Qiao Yan still pretended to be weird from time to time, and always wanted to provoke her, there were some things that they all knew by heart.

The illusion is a piece of window paper that is covered in front of the eyes, no one will expose it, and the two maintain the original state together.

Qiao Yan wanted to speak, but opened and closed his mouth.

Zhou Xiyun suddenly said: "Aunt told me to get up at 07:30 tomorrow morning and go boating in the morning."

Qiao Yan came back to his senses, put aside those chaotic thoughts, and said, "Okay, got it."

Zhou Xiyun said, "Rest early."

Qiao Yan stood up evasively, "Then I'll blow my head first."

The two sides separated again, each taking care of his own.

After that, it was like that, lying on the bed after finishing the work, it was really an early rest.

This room was the first to turn off the lights in the entire inn. Without the light, the room became pitch black.

The night in Qimu Town was not hazy enough, it was not interesting, the sky was gray and gloomy, not a single star could be seen, all were swallowed up by the thick clouds, leaving no dregs behind.

Qiao Yan lay flat on his back, staring at the ceiling in a daze.

It's too early, it's not even ten o'clock, so I don't feel sleepy at all.

At this time, there are occasional noises from tourists who have not left the night tour outside, and sometimes they are far away and sometimes near, I don’t know why they are so excited.Occasionally, a car passed by, jingling a few times.

Zhou Xiyun closed his eyes, listening to the rustling turning over, pulling the quilt, moving around...

After a long time, Qiao Yan suddenly called softly, "Zhou Xiyun—"

Ignore it here, listen but don't hear it.

Qiao Yan turned sideways, pressed the quilt under his arms, and looked over.

Zhou Xiyun was keenly aware of her actions, and guessed what she was doing without turning on the lights.

The outlines of some objects can still be vaguely seen in the room, and the raised quilt in front can be seen.Qiao Yan was really bored, she stared at Zhou Xiyun silently for a while, and then said again: "I remember you were very afraid of the dark when you were young, right?"

Then he added: "Aunt Zhou threw you home on a business trip. You were only a few years old at that time. You didn't dare to sleep alone at night, and you didn't let the nanny go to your room, and even kicked him out. Do you still have any memory?"

There was still silence in the darkness, and there was no response.

Qiao Yan said: "You are crying and making a lot of noise at night, the nanny can only come to our side to ask my grandma for help, and my grandma took me to your house, but you didn't want to sleep with me and beat me up .”

It's all a thing of the past, and it really happened.

Zhou Xiyun still remembered, but never forgot.After a while, she turned sideways and replied in a low voice: "I'm not unhappy."

Qiao Yan asked, "Beating people is true."

Zhou Xiyun said, "First you pretend to be a ghost to scare me."

Qiao Yan said, "I didn't do that to make you happy, who knew you would react so strongly."

Childhood memories are always interesting, and I can't remember the details. Zhou Xiyun couldn't remember why he did it, so he didn't refute that person.

Qiao Yan rolled up the quilt and asked again, "Are you really going to sleep?"

Zhou Xiyun was quiet. "Soon."

Qiao Yan said: "I'm not sleepy yet." Zhou Xiyun: "Yes."

Qiao Yan: "I don't think you seem to be able to sleep." Zhou Xiyun: "..." "Come talk to me."

"Is it okay?" "No."

Qiao Yan slapped his face: "What do you want to talk about?" Zhou Xiyun said softly, "I'm sleepy."

Qiao Yan: "Liar, you pretended." Zhou Xiyun: "No."

If the objection is invalid, we still have to continue the conversation.

Qiao Yan chattered away, Zhou Xiyun had no choice but to listen, replying from time to time.

The wall lamp by the bed was turned on at some point, and the room was brightened up again.

The two dealt with each other perfunctorily, and they both sat up in the back.At about 11:30, Zhou Xiyun asked for no reason: "Do you play cards?"

Qiao Yan's thoughts were empty, and he couldn't turn the corner for a while.

Zhou Xiyun didn't care and said, "Find something to do."

Qiao Yan asked, "Did you bring the cards?"

Zhou Xiyun said: "My mother asked me to take it."

Qiao Yan: "I see."

Zhou Xiyun said: "It's okay."

Qiao Yan immediately lifted the quilt, "I didn't say I didn't want to."

"Come here." Zhou Xiyun said, giving up some space, "You sit here."

Qiao Yan went over without thinking, and took it seriously.

"Then you go and get the cards." She also said, and climbed onto the opposite bed unprepared.

Zhou Xiyun said: "Wait."

Then he turned around and touched the switch, and there was a snap——

Qiao Yan didn't expect this to happen at all. After her eyes darkened, she was still dazed for a while, until the weight in front of her was placed on her. One hand touched the side of her neck, pinched her chin tentatively, and lifted it up slightly.

The person next to her stepped forward, not giving her another chance to talk.Qiao Yan's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Well……"

Zhou Xiyun was strong, and took the opportunity to press her other hand on the back of her head, preventing her from being pushed away.
