Olvera's scolding filled with shame and anger disturbed the silence in the corridor, so there was a rustling sound in every room, especially in Saint Xalia's room, where her voice was already heard through the door.
Came: "What's the matter, Olvera? Aren't you asleep yet?"
"Ah...no, it's nothing, Sister Xiaoxia, I'll go to bed right away!"
Oveira hurriedly replied, then pushed Linger hard to go in, lowered her voice, gritted her teeth and said: "Go in, come in quickly! Do you want to be discovered by Sister Xiaoxia?"
Being discovered... so what?
Ringer thought to himself, but did not resist, letting Olvera push his body into the room, then turned around and closed the door with lightning speed, and locked it with a click, and then let out a sigh of relief.
He stretched out his hand to wipe away a few drops of cold sweat on his forehead, looking like he had narrowly escaped death.
Is Saint Xalia so terrible that she can leave such a big psychological shadow on Olvera? If she knew that she had this image in her sister's mind, she would be very sad, right? Maybe she should find some time,
Let two sisters spend a day alone to enhance their relationship?
The young man, who was completely unaware that the problem was actually happening to him, was thinking endlessly about irrelevant things. When he came back to his senses, he realized that Princess Beimang was glaring at him angrily. She clenched her hands and raised her head.
Her little face turned red. If she could breathe fire, she would definitely spit out a stream of flames when she opened her mouth.
"What's wrong?" he asked.
The young man didn't open his mouth to retaliate. When he opened his mouth, it was like throwing a spark into a powder keg, which instantly aroused the princess's emotions: "You, you, you, you actually have the nerve to ask me what's wrong? Tell me, why are you?"
Will you appear in my room!? Breaking into a lady's room without her consent will be punished by death!"
Which country's law is this?
But Ringer was not frightened by Olvera's threat, because he had a very good reason: "Didn't you ask me to come?"
"Eh?"
"Or have you forgotten what you said in the morning?" Ringer paused and asked thoughtfully: "Do you need to ask Rorona to help you refine some medicine to treat amnesia?"
"No need!"
Olvera replied firmly, her eyes like knives, piercing the young man: "I just asked you to come to me at night, I didn't say you can enter my room at will!"
"You haven't come back yet, so I can't just wait outside, right?"
"Why not?"
"Because it will be seen by Saint Xalia."
"Well!"
This reason was indeed very good. Olvera choked and didn't know how to refute it for a moment. However, after fighting with Lin for a while, the shame, anger and a little bit of nervousness that filled her chest disappeared.
They disappeared. Princess Beimang, who gradually recovered her mood, pouted. Although she was a little reluctant, she decided to be merciful and let Linge go for the time being and not worry about this issue.
Ringer himself did not realize that he had saved his life. When he saw Olvera suddenly shut her mouth and stopped talking, he just thought that she had nothing to say, so he turned around and walked to the desk and picked up the bookshelf.
Sitting on a chair and reading a book, he said: "If there is no problem, you can try to sleep. I will stay here until you fall asleep."
Olvera subconsciously asked: "What happens after I fall asleep?"
When Lin Ge heard this, he gave her a strange look: "After you fall asleep, of course I will leave. Is there any problem?"
You ask me if I have any questions? Then I can only answer that you not only have them, but they have big questions!
The princess hesitated and hesitated, unable to explain clearly, and finally decided to answer with practical actions. So she ran to her bed, leaned over and groped under the bed for a while, and then dragged out a set of... bedding?
There were not only bedding, but also matching pillows and quilts, and even a nightcap with cotton balls. Based on the pattern of Shemi woven on it, Ringer could only reasonably suspect that it was the work of a certain landlady.
"Dang Dang Dang!" Oveira showed off her tactical reserves to Ringer with a proud look on her face: "Look, I have already prepared a neat three-piece set for you: quilt, pillow, pillowcase, and
This is my favorite nightcap! You are guaranteed to enjoy a good night’s sleep! Of course——”
She walked between the quilt and her bed again, drew a line on the floor with her feet, and then threatened Ringer with a fierce expression: "You can only go here, you can't cross... Bah, what I meant is
Yes, you can only sleep on the floor and don't have any weird delusions, okay?"
"I actually wouldn't sleep here at all."
Ringer repeated expressionlessly: "After you fall asleep, I will go back to my room to sleep."
"Hey! Why?" Oveira exclaimed, with an incredible expression on her face.
You still ask why, was he assimilated by Alice?
Ringer's eyes seemed to care for a mentally retarded child: "There are differences between men and women. I thought this was the most basic principle. I didn't expect that you have lived in human society for so long and you don't even know this kind of thing?"
Olvera immediately blushed and muttered: "Of course I know about this kind of thing!"
The thing is, I thought you wouldn't care!
Obviously he is usually so slow and has no interest in emotional matters. In the process of getting along with him, he never sticks to the identity boundary between men and women. He always says some embarrassing things, but he doesn't care.
…
Or is it that Ringer is not slow, on the contrary, he is the most sober person?
Thinking of this possibility, Olvera couldn't help but take another look at Ringer, and happened to meet the young man's calm and profound gaze, so she took it back with a guilty conscience, and said in frustration: "Then the things I prepared are completely useless?
Ringer, you are too much, you should have told me earlier!"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "If you think carefully before doing everything and understand its necessity, you will not make the same mistake next time." Ringer
So commented: "Don't do things on impulse, Olvera."
"Linge, you're so verbose."
Olivia muttered, stuffing the quilt back under the bed, then stood up and patted the dust on her skirt, sat on the edge of the bed, and for a moment she didn't know what to say.
After experiencing the farce just now, the atmosphere in the room was a bit awkward - maybe only Olvera felt this way, because Ringer always looked so at ease, sitting quietly at the table reading a book, as if he couldn't understand the meaning of the name.
The feeling of embarrassment. The sound of rustling and slender fingers turning over the paper was particularly clear, and it even made the princess feel that her heartbeat became clearer.
She was a little restless, rubbing the corners of her clothes with both hands, rubbing against the bed. She wanted to speak, but didn't know what to say. She could only secretly look at the young man from the corner of her eye, and quickly took it back without even taking a second glance.
He kept his sight out of sight, fearing that the situation would become even more embarrassing if he discovered it.
Time passed quietly in this almost frozen silence, until Linger finished reading a chapter, put down the book and let his eyes rest for a while. When he raised his head, he found Oveira still sitting by the bed. He couldn't help but be startled and asked: "
Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
"Ah?" Olivia didn't react for a moment.
Ringer pointed to the night outside the window: "It's almost twelve o'clock. I don't expect you to fall asleep right away, but at least try it before midnight. If you just sit on the edge of the bed in a daze, I don't think it's necessary.
I can do it too.”
After hearing what he said, Olvera stopped kneading the hem of her clothes unconsciously, and her face changed for a long time. It looked like she had gone through a fierce psychological struggle before finally making a decision. She lowered her head in anger.
He said quietly: "Okay, I know! I just want to sleep, I don't need you to urge me!"
She muttered and took off her shoes and socks, rolled over and climbed onto the bed, then slowly lay down on her back, letting her head rest lightly on the soft white pillow. The velvet in the pillowcase suddenly sunk in slightly, warming her up.
Surrounded by those smooth and supple hair like waterfalls - the whole set of movements is not only unfamiliar, but also cautious, as if you are afraid that the bed board under you will not be able to bear your weight and collapse suddenly.
The young man saw it, but was not surprised. Counting the days she was sealed in the castle, the princess of Bemang had not tried to sleep for at least seven hundred years. Everything in this world requires practice, and nothing is born.
Yes, even those things that seem to be taken for granted will be passively forgotten due to no contact for a long time. Therefore, Her Royal Highness Princess Leslie of the Royal Family has not only forgotten what sleep feels like long ago, I am afraid she has also long ago forgotten
Just forget how to sleep.
Lie down, close your eyes, empty your mind, and you will fall asleep - it sounds natural and simple, but how do you lie down? Will you feel nervous when you close your eyes? How can you clear your mind to ensure that you will not think of those things?
Messy things? And, as long as the above steps are completed perfectly, will you be able to fall asleep?
It's really unsettling.
Olvera was lying on the bed, with her hands folded on her lower abdomen, staring at the ceiling with wide eyes. The elegant chandelier was still emitting dim light, reflecting several hazy circles into her foggy golden eyes.
The hazy halo was like a beautiful scene after the nebula dispersed. The princess felt that she was very energetic now, and she didn't feel sleepy at all.
I don't want to close my eyes at all.
Why don't we just stay in a daze like this until dawn?
It seems to be a good choice too.
She thought endlessly until the halo under her eyes was suddenly covered by the outline of a human figure. She was startled. After a closer look, she realized that it was Ling Ge who had walked to her bedside without knowing when, and there was not even a sound of footsteps.
There was no sound, just like a ghost. The princess couldn't help puffing up her cheeks and complained: "Linge, how can you scare people like this? I was almost scared to death by you?"
Ringer was speechless for a while: "Have you forgotten what you should do?"
Olivia blinked her beautiful eyes and pretended not to know: "What's the matter?"
"I'm here to help you sleep, not to see you in a daze." The young man sighed: "If you really can't sleep, just say so. I won't force you. Wait until you are mentally prepared.
One day, we’ll try again.”
Olvera was a little unhappy when she heard this. She admitted that she was a little scared, but she didn't want anyone to expose her fear, so she said harshly: "I have been mentally prepared for a long time! If you hadn't scared me just now, I would have
Time to sleep!"
"Really?" Lin Ge raised his eyebrows slightly: "Then I apologize to you. I won't disturb you anymore. Please start sleeping."
"Just sleep, what's the big deal!"
Being provoked to this point, Olvera couldn't back down at all. She muttered a few words. Linger didn't hear them clearly, but she was probably blaming herself, so it didn't matter if she didn't listen.
Then, the princess took a deep breath: "Ha——"
He exhaled another long breath: "Huh~~~"
He tried his best to lower his eyelids.
Boundless darkness suddenly enveloped the place.
Countless grotesque colors twisted and changed in the darkness, and countless strange shadows bared their teeth in the deepest part of the heart. It was such a familiar and abominable feeling that the princess seemed to have returned to her own past in an instant. At that time, she hugged
She huddled up with her legs in the corner of the endless night, praying for the protection of a little light; then she walked alone on the rippled sea of darkness, hearing people's whispers of sorrow and pity; then she stood in a garden full of violets.
Here, facing the fragrant and gorgeous flowers, she smelled the sourness and bitterness of them rotting in the swamp; at that time, she lived under a sky cut into pieces by black and white, like playing a jigsaw puzzle.
Just like that, trying hard to jump over those black grids and stand on the white grids, but when you look back, you are shocked to find that the world is actually neither black nor white, and it can be more colorful...
Darkness is invisible, soundless, tasteless, and colorless, but it is far more terrifying than those senses. It once occupied the princess's nightmare, making her fearful of returning to her dreamland and facing all the fate she was born with.
Until, a breath broke in.
It's so calm, even, neither happy nor angry, just like an unchanging lake, but it makes people feel more at ease, because underneath the lake lies a warmth that is vaster than the darkness, enough to dispel those fears and bring a little bit of happiness.
, even if it is a life-saving comfort.
Immediately afterwards, the breaths of many people appeared in my ears one by one.
Sister Xiaoxia's breath is gentle and bright; Ieta's breath is weak but happy; Metien's breath is small but full of hope; Lorena's breath is cheerful and full of vitality... In this small hotel
In the middle, there is a big cloud whale island. For a moment, it seems that all the breaths are gathered in the princess's ears. There is no light in the darkness, so people will feel scared. But if there is always the ups and downs of the companion's breath in the ears, let
People who sleep know that they are not alone, so even the most distant night and the deepest sea can flow through it without fear, right?
The princess's stiff hands and feet gradually relaxed, her breathing began to become gentle, her chest rose and fell gently, and each breath was filled with a calm rhythm, like a soothing serenade.
Generally speaking, stable breathing means stable sleep quality.
so--
Lin Ge looked at this scene and thought: I shouldn't need to worry, right?
He stood quietly by the bed for a few more minutes, and after confirming that there was no problem with Olvera's sleep, he turned around quietly and wanted to leave. But as soon as he took a step, he was caught by the corner of his clothes.
The force was very light, but it still made the young man stop. He turned around in confusion and met a pair of pleading and sincere eyes.
"Um..." The princess opened her eyes again for some reason, her lips murmured, her eyes were wandering, and she didn't dare to look at him: "I seem to be unable to sleep again, so can I stay temporarily...?"
