Tian's little cook

Chapter 416 Night Watch
"Lin Jiao, why don't you go and have a look?" Lin Zhimo was puzzled, "Since the thief came to my house, he might come to your house as well."

"Let's see it tomorrow, it's too late now." Lin Jiao had his concerns, "I'm still not sure if the thief has left."

When Lin Jiao said this, she lowered her voice.

"No way." Lin Zhimo was taken aback by his guess.

She wasn't afraid at first, but now she heard Lin Jiao's words, she suddenly felt a little uneasy: "Should...you should have left long ago..."

Lin Jiao continued in a low voice: "The yard is so big, I'm not sure if it's just the two of us."

It also makes sense for him to think so, if the two of them really act separately.If the thief hadn't left and let Lin Zhimo face it alone, it was absolutely impossible for Lin Jiao to let this happen.

"Then what do we do now?"

"We have searched this room just now, and we can confirm that no one else is there." Lin Jiao said, "We will stay here tonight, and when Chen Zhu arrives at dawn, we will start looking for other places."

stay here?
Lin Zhimo pursed his lips, what did he mean by that?
Noticing her expression, Lin Jiao immediately realized that he had said something wrong just now, and quickly added: "Zhimo, you go to bed first, I will sit here."

"I can't go to sleep by myself, let you stay here alone." Lin Zhimo naturally refused.

Lin Jiao knew that she couldn't be persuaded to leave now, so she agreed.

It just so happened that there were still books in the bedroom. Lin Zhimo sat aside and read, while Lin Jiao began to write on the lamp.

Because the surface of the lamp is made of translucent silk, writing must be very slow, otherwise the ink will disperse easily.

Lin Jiao wrote a stroke and waited for the ink to dry before writing. Lin Zhimo read it seriously at first, and then turned to the book in his hand.

By the time Lin Jiao finished writing four lines of poems, Lin Zhimo had already fallen asleep lying on the table.

According to her previous work and rest habits, she had already fallen asleep, and she finally couldn't bear it anymore.

"Zhimo." Lin Jiao put down his pen and touched her lightly, but Lin Zhimo didn't respond.

Thinking of the last time Lin Zhimo fell asleep in the study and accidentally kissed her when he went to hug her, Lin Jiao smiled.

Then, he bent down again, picked Lin Zhimo up, put him gently on the bed, took off his shoes and covered him with the quilt.

After finishing, Lin Jiao felt that there was still something wrong, so she moved the screen on the side and placed it in front of the bed, so that Lin Zhimo and him could be separated, and it would not have a bad impact on her reputation .

Lin Jiao continued to return to the table, staring at the lantern with the poem written.

He remembered Lin Zhimo's joyful expression when she looked at the lantern at night, she smiled at herself on the arch bridge, and remembered the poems she wrote on the river lantern.

Lin Zhimo's voice and smile kept appearing in his mind, and Lin Jiao finally picked up the pen again and wrote two more poems on the lamp surface.

After finishing writing, Lin Jiao picked up the book that Lin Zhimo hadn't finished just now, and slowly flipped through it.

When he was really sleepy, Lin Jiao drank another cup of ice-cold tea, then walked back and forth by the table to prevent himself from falling asleep.

In fact, he guessed that the thieves had already left, but even if he was slightly worried, he didn't dare to take it lightly.

Lin Jiao felt at ease when she thought that she was sleeping next to her just a screen away.

He is willing to protect her forever.

After standing for an unknown amount of time, Lin Jiao sat down and continued reading with a book in his hand.
