Chapter 124: Waking Up to See You
More than an hour had passed since the earlier kiss, but he was still reminiscing about it.
Senior Sister is really too much. She suddenly kissed me, escaped into her bedroom, locked the door, and even called it a birthday present.
Isn’t this just torturing me?
Before he could even move his lips, the wonderful feeling had already disappeared, leaving him with no time to savor it.
He felt like a dog now. Senior Sister had teasingly waved a bone near his nose just enough for him to catch its scent, only to toss it away right after!
Too cruel!
What kind of birthday present is this?
It was clearly to torment him.And now, he had just resolved some teenage physical and mental health issues in the bathroom.
But here he was, facing the same old problem again. Do I have to solve it again?
It was harmful to the body to do it twice a day!
In the dimly lit guest room, Jiang Miao lay on the bed, reminiscing about Senior Sister’s soft and fragrant lips. He let out a deep sigh, unable to sleep at all.
Right now, he wanted to sneak into Senior Sister’s bedroom, burrow under her blanket, hug her tightly in his arms, and then chew on her soft lips.
He wanted to let her know just how intense the passion of a teenage boy could be.
But she had already locked her door, not giving him any chance at all, so there was nothing he could do.
With no other option, Jiang Miao helplessly slipped his hand under the blanket and rubbed it a few times to adjust its position.
He closed his eyes, trying to fall asleep.
At this age, filled with youthful vigor, he didn’t know when he fell asleep after the enchantress cast a spell on him.
As soon as he closed his eyes, his mind was full of Senior Sister’s face.
Her alluring peach blossom eyes, the charming teardrop mole at the corner of her eye, her small nose, rosy lips, and fair and soft skin…
This perfect Senior Sister was gentle and polite outside. She was a vice-captain of the debate team, a deputy minister of the Youth Association’s publicity department, and a class assistant of the first-years’ Class 2 in the Department of Accounting.
However, aside from her roommates, no one else knew that the beautiful and graceful Senior Sister Su Huaizhou was an illustrator skilled in anime art style.
Moreover, she liked reading romance novels and was a loyal fan of My Girlfriend Is a Content Creator, making her Jiang Miao’s all-time number one reader.
Not only that, but during the National Day holiday recently, Junior Brother Jiang Miao and Senior Sister Su had officially become a couple.
Although Su Huaizhou flew into a rage out of humiliation after her secret identity was exposed and only agreed to unlock one-third of the boyfriend privileges, in reality, they had already held hands, hugged, and kissed each other on the cheek.
Even tonight, Senior Sister had actively given him a sweet kiss.
… Even though it was only for a fleeting moment.
It was something that others could hardly imagine.
Moreover, they had shared a bed.
Holding Senior Sister’s soft body while sleeping was truly an addictive experience.
So it was only natural that Jiang Miao began to dream.
In his dream, Senior Sister quietly slipped out of the master bedroom in the middle of the night and sneaked into his room.
After lifting his blanket, she crawled into his warm bed, lifted his arm to place around her shoulder, and contentedly curled up in his embrace.
As a result, Jiang Miao woke up.
Upon discovering that Senior Sister had sneaked into his bed, he immediately had a serious expression as he began to engage in a battle of wits and strength with the perverted Su Huaizhou on the bed. Finally, he managed to capture her and pin her down on the bed.
Looking at the captured Senior Sister being restrained on the bed with a flushed face and exuding a bewitching charm, Jiang Miao immediately became alert.
He took out his punishment rod, preparing to punish her.
But at this moment, a wave of confusion swept over his mind. His real-life experience was not enough to sustain the dream, leading it to collapse entirely.
Jiang Miao opened his eyes and looked at the ceiling in confusion.
The soft morning light outside the window spilled onto the blanket, the glimmer making him squint.
But the next second, he felt a dull ache and numbness in his right arm, as though something heavy had pressed down on it all night.
Something soft and sweet on his right side jolted him awake.
When he turned his head to look, he was stunned.
Su Huaizhou lay slightly turned, nestled in his arms, quietly curled up like a stray cat that had finally found a warm bed to rest in.
Her head was resting on his shoulder.
Her soft hair cascaded over the pillow, covering most of it. With the slightest movement, the tousled black strands at his neck would brush against his skin, causing a ticklish sensation.
But at this moment, it was Jiang Miao’s heart that felt even more tickled.
The gentle light outside the window fell on Senior Sister’s face. Her slightly pouting lips resembled an alluring cherry, making him want to take a bite and suck them.
Jiang Miao thought last night’s dream was still continuing.
It wasn’t until he shifted his body slightly and hugged Senior Sister closer, causing her to furrow her brow and let out a soft gasp, that he realized it wasn’t a dream.
But before Senior Sister opened her eyes, Jiang Miao had already instinctively closed his eyes.
After a second or two, he felt the girl in his arms stir.
“Annoying. You can’t even behave when you sleep.” Senior Sister’s soft complaint echoed in his ears. “You pressed on my hair several times throughout the night.”
Sorry about that… Jiang Miao held back his laughter.
“Hmph. Junior Brother, you’re such a dummy.” Su Huaizhou took advantage of his ‘sleep’ to complain in his ear. “I even unlocked the door later, but you didn’t come over. You’re so dense.”
… Who could have guessed that? Jiang Miao felt speechless.
Without any hints, how could he have figured it out?
Seriously, Senior Sister, if you want to sleep with me, why not let go of your pride and stubbornness? There’s no need to make it so complicated.
In the end, didn’t you sneak over yourself?
Yet here they were, with a double bed available, but they had squeezed onto this narrow single bed instead.
Although this bed was wider than the one in the dorm room, it was still a bit cramped for two people to lie on.
If Su Huaizhou hadn’t snuggled into Jiang Miao’s embrace, she might have fallen off the bed in the middle of the night.
“And you like to move around when you sleep,” she continued to complain. “You must be dreaming something strange. Your hands kept touching all over the place.”
Jiang Miao: “?!”
When Senior Sister said this, he immediately felt he had suffered a huge loss.
Had he known she would sneak over, he would have stayed awake last night and made sure to execute her on the spot.
How could it be like this now, where he didn’t even know what he had touched?
Lost in thought, Jiang Miao suddenly felt Senior Sister sit up and lift the blanket. She seemed to be getting out of bed.
However, he didn’t hear the sound of the slippers walking away. Instead, his face suddenly felt itchy, like strands of hair brushing against him.
Along with this came Senior Sister’s slightly hurried breathing.
The next second, Jiang Miao felt a peck on his right cheek.
Then on his left cheek and forehead.
Immediately after, the touch of her hair disappeared, and the sound of slippers moving away came. He immediately felt a sense of loss.
Senior Sister, keep going!
What about after kissing my face?
Is that it?
With disappointment, Jiang Miao opened his and saw Senior Sister’s back as she walked out of the room.
Then the door closed.
If he had known earlier, he would have directly reached out and held Senior Sister’s head firmly.
Now, he sat up and adjusted his pants under the blanket before getting out of bed.
After putting on his clothes, he looked at the master bedroom. There was no one inside.
The living room was also empty.
When he reached the bathroom door, he heard the sound of running water and knocked. “Senior Sister, can I come in?”
“Sure.” Su Huaizhou’s muffled voice came. “I’m brushing my teeth.”
Jiang Miao pushed the door open and found Senior Sister still in her pajamas, brushing her teeth at the sink with her back facing him.
She leaned forward slightly, highlighting her beautiful curves.
Unfortunately, she wore modest pajamas today, with long sleeves covering her upper body. As she raised her wrist holding her toothbrush, a delicate section of her fair arm peeked out from the sleeve.
But she wasn’t wearing any pajama pants.
Although the hem of her nightgown was long enough to cover half of her thighs, as she leaned over the sink, the fabric naturally lifted, fully exposing her smooth, firm, and fair thighs.
Jiang Miao was frequently looking.
Fortunately, he had put his pants on beforehand.
“What are you looking at?” Su Huaizhou caught Junior Brother’s suspicious gaze in the mirror and immediately turned around. One hand still held her toothbrush, while the other tugged the hem of her nightgown, wanting to pull it down. Blushing, she said, “D-don’t look…”
“… I’m not looking.”
“Still trying to deny it?!”
“I just woke up, and my eyes aren’t listening to me.” Jiang Miao moved to Senior Sister’s side, picked up his toothbrush, and squeezed some of her toothpaste onto it.
But just as he raised his right hand, he winced in pain and quickly held the toothbrush with his left hand instead.
“What’s wrong?” Su Huaizhou asked, puzzled.
“It’s nothing…” Jiang Miao grinned and shook his right arm, pretending to be oblivious. “I don’t know what happened, but as soon as I woke up, my arm felt numb, and it hurts when I raise it.”
“…” She blushed and looked away, feeling a bit guilty. “Maybe your sleeping posture was bad? You should be more careful.”
“Yeah, it might also have something to do with my dream,” he mumbled vaguely while brushing his teeth.
Su Huaizhou looked curious as she rinsed her mouth and prepared to wash her face. When she grabbed a towel, she asked casually, “What kind of dream could make your arm go numb?”
“I dreamed you sneaked into my bed at night and slept with my arm as your pillow.”
“???” Her expression changed drastically. She immediately became annoyed and embarrassed as she pinched his waist with one hand. “You knew all along?! Pretending to sleep again?”
Jiang Miao looked dumbfounded. His mouth full of foam, he asked blankly, “Senior Sister, what do you mean? Did you really sneak into my bed last night?”
“Ah? Uh… um…” Su Huaizhou, seeing his reaction, felt awkward, thinking that Junior Brother was really talking about his dream. She panicked. “N-no…”
“I was wondering why my arm was so numb when I woke up.” Jiang Miao rinsed his mouth and adopted a righteous expression. “Senior Sister, how could you do that? If you want to sleep together, just say so. I won’t refuse.”
“I didn’t!” She blushed and didn’t even bother finishing washing her face before turning to escape.
But the bathroom was only so big. Before Su Huaizhou could escape, Jiang Miao had already grabbed her and pulled her tightly into his embrace.
“Let go…”
“Not a chance.” He wrapped his arms around her from behind and placed his chin on her shoulder. “Unless you tell me the truth.”
“You’re thinking too much… I really didn’t…”
“You said, ‘Annoying. You can’t even behave when you sleep. You pressed on my hair several times throughout the night,’” Jiang Miao whispered in her ear.
Before he finished speaking, Su Huaizhou’s body stiffened, and she fell silent.
But he didn’t let her off. “‘Hmph. Junior Brother, you’re such a dummy. I even unlocked the door later, but you didn’t come over. You’re so dense.
“‘And you like to move around when you sleep…’”
“Ahhhhhhh!” Su Huaizhou couldn’t take it anymore. She covered her ears and screamed, her earlobes flushed pink from embarrassment. “Stop it, stop it!”
“So, Senior Sister, do you still want to lie to me?” Jiang Miao asked with a laugh.
“You lied to me too!” She lowered her head and knocked him hard. In the end, her strength slowly faded away until she completely softened in Junior Brother’s arms. “You’re always up to no good.”
“Isn’t it because you’re so silly every time,” he said. “I wanted to sleep with you, but you refused. Then at night, you sneaked over anyway. What’s up with that?”
“You’re overthinking it.” Su Huaizhou tried her best to quibble. “It… it was also a birthday present!”
In short, no matter what, she could always use the excuse of gathering material or giving a birthday present, and there would be no problem.
In any case, it wasn’t that she couldn’t sleep after kissing Junior Brother.
It wasn’t that she was tossing and turning in bed, longing for his embrace.
And it certainly wasn’t that she really wanted to sleep together with him.
Everything was just a birthday present!
“But after midnight, it was already the tenth.”
“Who says you can’t give a gift a day later?” Su Huaizhou pushed him aside, quickly washed her face, and fled back to her bedroom with flushed cheeks.
After washing up, Jiang Miao went into the kitchen to cook a pot of congee and a plate of fried eggs with soy sauce. Breakfast was ready.
When Su Huaizhou came out, she had changed into her usual outfit: a loose-sleeved T-shirt, cropped pants, and white socks, with her long hair tied into a high ponytail.
She had returned to being the tall, gentle, and sharp-looking Senior Sister.
Seeing Senior Sister sitting across from him, sipping the congee he made, with their legs unknowingly intertwined under the table, Jiang Miao couldn’t help smiling.
“What are you smiling about?” Su Huaizhou asked after taking a sip. There was a thin line of white congee on her upper lip, making her look even cuter.
“Nothing. I just feel you’re beautiful no matter how I look at you.”
She rolled her eyes. “You and your glib tongue.”
“Senior Sister, don’t move.” Jiang Miao didn’t mind at all as he reached out to wipe the line of congee off her lip with his index finger and casually licked it off his finger.
“Hey! It’s dirty! Don’t eat it!” Su Huaizhou’s face flushed as she watched him put the congee that had touched her lips into his mouth. She kicked him several times under the table in a flustered protest.
“How is it dirty? It’s clearly delicious and sweet,” Jiang Miao said thick-skinnedly.
“Sweet, my foot! Pervert!”
“Then what does sneaking into my bed in the middle of the night make you? A flower picker?”
“Ah! Stop talking about that!”
…
After some playful bickering, the two of them tidied up the dining table and kitchen and walked out of River Mountain Residences hand in hand.
“Do you have morning classes?”
“Yeah. What about you, Senior Sister?”
“I do too.”
“Do you need to go back to your dorm to get your books?”
“No need. I’ll ask Yueyue to get them for me.”
“Oh, then I’ll ask Wang Xin to get mine.”
With that, the two of them set off lightly and headed for the school gates.
As a result, as they approached the entrance of Xiuye Commons, they ran into Wang Xin, Xun Liang, Qi Lianyue, Shen Yu, and Cao Jiayuan walking out together.
The seven of them bumped into each other unexpectedly.
[I Am Studying]: Wow wow wow!! Caught in the act!
As everyone looked at each other in awkward silence, Shen Yu couldn’t resist making a fuss in the dorm room group chat.
