Chapter 42: Should I… massage it for you?
Hmm~
Sui Lier was in the midst of a pleasant dream when she was suddenly awakened by Chen Ling. Her petite body couldnt help but tremble.
When a normal person is abruptly awakened from a sweet dream, they would undoubtedly be furious and impatient, wishing to chop off the person who disturbed them. At first, Sui Lier also opened her eyes in confusion but suddenly realized: Oh! Chen Ling is back!
Ding~ Target feels happy, +100,000 points!
+100,000 points!
Chen Ling! Youre back! As she spoke, she sat up straight, looking at him with joy.
Chen Ling, at this moment, felt despair. Should I have not woken her up? Why did I bother calling her?
The points dont keep accumulating while shes dreaming. But the points have been accumulating non-stop since she woke up
I accidentally fell asleep hehe Sui Lier quickly stood up from the chair. At 1.58 meters tall, standing in front of Chen Ling, who was over 1.8 meters, she looked like a junior high school student standing in front of a college student.
Her little hand was placed in front of her, and she shyly and happily raised her small head to look at Chen Ling.
Chen Ling originally wanted to punish her, but when he saw her radiant eyes, he instantly changed his mind. I well Im back.
Sui Lier noticed his sigh and felt a little puzzled. Whats wrong? You seem unhappy.
As she spoke, the points stopped increasing as well.
Chen Ling frowned when he saw this. He knew very well that his mood was affecting Sui Lier. The more he realized that, the more he couldnt bear to be harsh with her. Well um
Chen Ling hesitated, shook his head, and said, Alright, Im back. You should go to sleep.
Huh? Oh Sui Lier really wanted to know what was bothering Chen Ling.
Although she probably couldnt help with his matters, she still wanted to know. What if what if she could be of assistance?
Unfortunately, Chen Ling didnt say anything.
As she pondered, Sui Lier thought about herself. Did the Lord God have so many worries before meeting me?
Could it be because of me? Its very possible! The reason Lord God didnt tell me is to protect me from getting hurt!
Is it because of me that he have so many worries? Am I too bothersome?
Alright then~ Ill go to sleep too, goodnight~ See you tomorrow! Oh no see you today! Hehe~ Although Sui Lier was smiling, Chen Ling felt that she didnt seem as happy as she pretended to be?
As expected, the points notification from the system betrayed Sui Lier:
Ding~ Target feels sad, -10,000 points
Chen Ling was momentarily stunned. Although he didnt know why, his heart couldnt help but ache.
Looking at the points that were flooding the screen, it was what he wanted, yet not what he wanted.
At this moment, Sui Lier had just reached out to open the door.
Mind reading forget it
Wait! Chen Ling called out to her directly.
Hmm? Whats wrong? As Sui Lier released her hand from the doorknob and turned around, the deduction of points stopped.
Indeed, this was the most effective method.
Um well Although he called her back and stopped the deduction of points, Chen Ling hadnt figured out how to say it yet.
He could only grit his teeth and force himself to say: If you have something to say or if youre troubled by something, you can tell me. Ill help you solve it.
Huh? Although Sui Lier was puzzled, when she heard Chen Lings words, a smile already appeared on her face.
I I dont have any troubles! How could I have any troubles when Im with you! Hehe~
Her mood clearly improved.
Chen Ling also sighed in relief: Alright, as long as youre happy. Then go to sleep, okay?
His tone was extremely gentle, and Chen Ling himself couldnt believe he was speaking so softly.
Hehe~ Okay! Then Ill go now? Sui Lier was afraid of laughing too proudly, as it would make her look ugly. She tried her best not to laugh too exaggeratedly, like a fool.
Well, go ahead, dont forget to apply your lip balm.
Hehe~ Okay! Goodnight, Chen Ling!
Goodnight.
Hehe~ Sui Lier chuckled lightly, happily turned around, and was about to bounce back to her room.
Chen Ling had a somewhat helpless smile on his lips as he watched her walk away. However, he noticed that the little girl didnt even turn her head and was already jumping out without even opening the door, as if she wanted to crash through it and break it.
Hey, you At this rate, she was bound to hit the door with her little head.
Sui Lier finally fully turned her head and noticed that the door was getting closer to her face. She hesitated for a moment but couldnt stop herself! Fearfully, she closed her eyes.
Oops Its over
Thud went the muffled sound.
Ah~
Sob so embarrassing
That was Sui Liers immediate reaction. She was going to be seen as a fool by the Lord God again Sob
Are you stupid?
As expected! Chen Lings voice rang in her ears.
Wait a minute Why was it in my ear?
Surprised, Sui Lier lifted her head and saw Chen Lings half-smiling expression. His eyes slightly narrowed, and there seemed to be a slight curve at the corners of his mouth. He seemed like he was laughing, but also not.
Chen Ling!?
Chen Ling looked down and saw Sui Liers perfect face just inches away.
Thud! His heart began to race again.
Um
The night was very quiet, and both of them fell into silence as they looked at each other. At this moment, Sui Lier felt as if she could hear her own heartbeat.
Chen Ling lost his focus again.
And Sui Lier remained motionless in his embrace, her face visibly turning red.
Youre so beautiful Chen Ling suddenly murmured, it was his innermost thought.
He accidentally said it out loud.
!!!
Sui Liers heart skipped a beat, her beautiful eyes widened involuntarily, and her small mouth slightly opened in disbelief.
What did he say
What did he just say!
He said me
Ding~ Points +100,000!
Those few words that Chen Ling feared the most appeared before his eyes once again. Startled, he immediately regained his composure.
He quickly let go of Sui Lier and stepped aside, looking at her in disbelief. W-What did I just say?
Chen Ling suddenly released her, causing Sui Lier to panic as well. The points were momentarily frozen.
Chen Lings face turned red instantly, and he quickly explained, Ahem! I I meant to say, Are you feeling okay?'
Sui Lier: ???
Oh Okay then~ So, I misheard Oops~
The points bonus instantly stopped. She had just gotten excited, and with one sentence, he killed all her enthusiasm.
Um Are you in pain? Sui Lier looked at Chen Ling with concern. Im sorry
Cough Chen Ling coughed and spoke seriously. It hurts so much. Your head must be made of iron. Luckily, I reacted quickly, otherwise, you would have knocked a hole in the door.
He was skilled at using this slightly teasing, diverting approach to change the subject and alleviate awkwardness, which had proven effective with others.
Unfortunately, the other person was Sui Lier.
Ah Does it hurt that much? Sui Lier apologetically touched her forehead.
Inner thoughts: Was it that hard?
Um Im sorry. Should I massage it for you? She looked at Chen Ling earnestly.
Chen Ling: ???
You want to massage me? Dont I have hands of my own?
Yeah cough you can! With a blush on his face, Chen Ling looked out the window, assuming an arrogant and proud demeanor, as if it was his rightful demand.
You bumped into me, so you have to massage me. He inherited his fathers thick-skinned nature perfectly.
However, Sui Lier genuinely felt sorry and walked gently up to Chen Ling. Looking at him, who had turned his head and was looking out the window, she asked softly, Where does it hurt?
Here. Without turning around, Chen Ling pointed to his chest.
Oh. Without much thought, Sui Lier instinctively extended her delicate little hand.
Chen Ling glanced at her hand, which seemed to reflect light due to its fair complexion, and his heart couldnt help but beat faster and faster!
Thump thump thump! His heart was about to explode, making him unconsciously hold his breath, feeling a bit nervous.
She placed her hand on his chest.
But in that moment of contact, even through the fabric, she could feel his warm body temperature. The moment Sui Lier touched him, he suddenly became tense.
Cough
Ah!
Chen Ling suddenly coughed lightly, startling Sui Lier as if she had pierced by a needle. She quickly withdrew her hand and looked at Chen Ling with concern.
Does it hurt a lot Im sorry!
!
Cough its alright, just a little, its nothing.
Well Then Sui Lier reached out her hand again, gently placing it on his chest. Does it still hurt like this?
Chen Ling suddenly felt his mouth dry and couldnt help but swallow. Its fine.
Well. After saying that, Chen Ling had a feeling that something was off in this conversation but he couldnt quite put his finger on it.
