Chapter 312: Chapter 313 Sleepwalking…
Dong Xiaoye instinctively took a step back, holding her chest with one hand, and the other hand covering the private area between her legs. But at the same time, after noticing my weird behavior, she held back and did not scream.
I secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Dong Xiaoye was a policewoman after all. Assessing the dangerous situation calmly had already become a professional habit of her. But at the same time, it was also the only weakness I could take advantage of. What I wanted was exactly her hesitation at this moment.
Ignoring the existence of Dong Xiaoye completely, I stood in front of the sink. I picked up the toothbrush in a feeble and slow motion, squeezed the toothpaste, brushed my teeth, and rinsed my mouth… my toothpaste still had the lid on, so I could not squeeze out any toothpaste, and there was no water in the cup, so I couldn’t rinse my mouth. Everything was just a pretense.
Under Dong Xiaoye’s suspicious gaze, I was not in a hurry to leave but suddenly turned to face her…
With a soft cry, she squatted down in a panic. Under the moonlight, it seemed that not only her face, but her skin became red. Looking down, her cleavage was deep and charming, and her back was smooth and sexy. Blood almost shot out from my nose and sprayed on her embarrassed face. Holding back the dirty thoughts in my mind, I sat down on the toilet, shaking my head and humming lightly.
Dong Xiaoye only squatted a step away from me on my left side. From this angle, she should be able to use the moonlight to clearly see that my eyes were closed.
“Sleep… sleepwalking?” Dong Xiaoye said to herself in a low voice. There wasn’t much surprise in her tone. Instead, it was full of suspicion and a trace of somewhat self-deceiving relief.
I may act like I was very calm, but my palms were already full of sweat. This was a risky game. If Dong Xiaoye saw through it, I would definitely die. But if I was really able to fool her, I could avoid a lot of embarrassment.
Although what I was doing was indeed very despicable and shameless…
. . .
Next day morning…
I carried the breakfast I bought downstairs and hobbled upstairs with difficulty. Before I opened the door, I heard Dongfang Lianren apologizing to Dong Xiaoye and Chu Yuan.
“Sister Xiaoye, I’m sorry! I threw up all over you last night… Your bed sheet and quilt were all dirtied by me, I will buy new ones today to replace them…”
Uh… Actually, after I woke up and went to the bathroom again this morning, I finally understood why Dong Xiaoye would take a shower in the middle of the night. It was all because Dongfang that little brat suddenly threw up all over Sister Tiger’s body. Because of that, her pajamas and bed sheet covered in vomits were still stacked under the sink.
As for why she didn’t turn on the light in the bathroom, I didn’t know. Originally, I thought it was because the light bulb was broken, but I tried it in the morning, it was still working. Maybe it was Dong Xiaoye’s personal habit to take a shower with the light off?
In short, it was all because of Dongfang, that little brat. If she didn’t drink or encourage Chu Yuan to drink, Dong Xiaoye wouldn’t have taken a shower in the middle of the night, and the embarrassment that followed wouldn’t have happened!
Dong Xiaoye’s attitude towards little girls was always so gentle that it made me confused sometimes, “No need. The weather is very good today, I will wash the pajamas and the bed sheet and dry them on the balcony. They will be dried before the night. But if you really feel sorry, then promise me that you will not drink again in the future. At least, not until when you are old enough. Do you understand?”
“Where is my elder brother?” When Dong Xiaoye mentioned the topic of drinking, Chu Yuan asked tremblingly, “Sister Xiaoye, I was also drunk yesterday, was my elder brother angry? Where did he go? I didn’t see him in the morning… He must be angry at me.”
“I don’t know if he is angry or not, but even if he is angry, he will not run away from home. Hehe, he went out to buy breakfast.”
I was dazed a little when I heard this. The three of them hadn’t gotten up when I went out, so how did Dong Xiaoye know that I went out to buy breakfast?
At this moment, the three of them all heard the movement at the door. Probably knowing that I came back, all of them fell silent. I sighed and walked into the living room at the right time. Glaring at Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren, I said in a bad mood, “why should I run away from home? I wasn’t the one who made mistakes.”
Except for Dong Xiaoye who was neatly dressed, Chu Yuan and Dongfang Lianren were still wearing pajamas, all their hair was very messy. Clearly, they had just gotten up and had not yet cleaned themselves. Probably they had just moved the sofa to the balcony, all of their faces were flushed, and they were a little breathless.
Seeing me walking in with a long face, both Chu Yuan and Dongfang felt guilty.
“Elder Brother…”
“Elder Brother Nan, I…”
“I don’t want to hear any explanations, I’m not your sister Xiaoye, you think you will be able to fool me? Not a chance!” I put the breakfast on the table and pretended to sit calmly on the chair next to Dong Xiaoye, “I won’t ask you why you two drank alcohol yesterday, but this is the last time. If I find out you are drinking again, I will not bother to scold you, I will simply call Zhen Nuo and ask her to take you home, lest your mother will say that I have a bad influence on you.”
Dongfang was scared to say anything. Facing my serious and angry expression, her usual mischief and tricks were completely useless. Her face turned pale in fear and she nodded repeatedly, “I won’t do it again, I definitely won’t do it again…”
“And you!” I looked at Chu Yuan coldly, “it is also the same for you. If you don’t behave yourself, I will let mom and dad know. Just look at yourself. What do you look like? You are a girl, but do you even behave like a girl? !”
Facing Chu Yuan’s help-seeking eyes, Dong Xiaoye sighed helplessly, “your elder brother is right, Yuan Yuan, Little Dongfang, you shouldn’t drink, do you understand? Otherwise, Sister Xiaoye will not help you.”
Dong Xiaoye was clearly pleading for leniency for them indirectly. Chu Yuan and Dongfang were both very clever girls. How could they not understand this? They quickly nodded obediently.
Seeing this, if I still didn’t choose to forgive them, it would only make Sister Tiger feel very embarrassed. But I felt like I owed Sister Tiger a lot, so I could only sigh and say. “Since you two know that what you were doing was wrong, I will let you off this time. But it is all because of your Elder Sister Xiaoye, do you understand?” I flicked the two little girls’ foreheads respectively and smiled, “now go get the plates, so we can have breakfast.”
God knew what Chu Yuan and Dongfang were doing in the kitchen. They just needed to take a few pairs of chopsticks and plates, but it took them a very long time. There were only two people, Dong Xiaoye and me, in the living room. I knew why I would feel that I owed Dong Xiaoye, but I didn’t understand why I was nervous. Especially when Dong Xiaoye’s gazes swept past my face, my heart was throbbing so quickly that even my legs were shaking.
“You don’t look well,” Dong Xiaoye said suddenly, “Are you alright? You didn’t sleep well last night?”
It was not that I didn’t sleep well last night, I couldn’t sleep at all! After returning to my room last night, whenever I closed my eyes, her firm breasts, beautiful slender legs, and curvy figures would appear in my mind. I couldn’t tell whether it was purely because of the shock or because of my lecherous mind, anyway, when I came back to my senses, there was already light in the sky. This was why I still felt exhausted.
I couldn’t fall asleep at all! I almost blurted this out when I heard Dong Xiaoye’s question. Although I quickly stopped myself, the faint suspicious light flowing through the corner of Dong Xiaoye’s eyes made my heart suddenly sink. I smiled awkwardly and said, “really? Probably because I got up too early today.”
“Really?” Dong Xiaoye picked up the phone on the table to check the time, “It’s just half past six, it’s indeed a bit early.”
Before I was relieved, I saw Dong Xiaoye taking a sip of tea, and seemingly inadvertently asking, “By the way, I heard some noises in the living room last night, was it you?”
My body trembled and I couldn’t help but think to myself, ‘she really has doubts about my sleepwalking, and she wants to trick me into confirming her doubts!’
“Me?” I pretended to be confused and said, “I didn’t get up at night, could it be the wind? The windows were open last night.”
“Maybe,” Dong Xiaoye chuckled, and said to me playfully, “I thought it was you, because it sounded like someone was humming songs.”
I was sweating like a pig… If it was not because of her red earlobes, I would’ve really thought that she didn’t keep what happened last night in mind.
“Humming songs in the middle of the night? Seriously? Are you telling me that my flat is haunted? “I chuckled awkwardly and said, “are you sure that you were not hearing things? Some people say that when you live in a new and strange environment, you will often hear and see things. It is a kind of psychological effect.”
“I don’t believe that there are ghosts in this flat, and there was no wind last night,” Dong Xiaoye surely said, “it was definitely someone humming songs?”
“How is that possible!”
“Why is it impossible?”
This damn woman was definitely pretending to be stupid. The purpose of it was to observe my reaction. No wonder people would say that being suspicious was the most prominent professional characteristic of the police. I felt like a shameless, heinous, stubborn, and cunning criminal who was trying to pretend to be as innocent as possible, “there were only us in the flat. If it was not me or you, then it was Yuan Yuan or Dongfang? But Yuan Yuan was sleeping like a pig last night.”
“Maybe… it was you.”
