Endless Silver Machine

Aika sat by the bed and flipped through the PDA to kill time. Wei Xi spent a long time in the bathroom again this time. Of course it is impossible to pay attention to how long it takes a girl to do "that kind of thing" when she is at home, but a similar thing happened just now, and Aika felt an indescribable feeling of anxiety in her heart.

Even if it offends her, it doesn't matter.

Aika gritted her teeth and made up her mind, quickly walking to the bathroom door.

However, before he raised his hand, the door in front of him opened by itself.

"Eh……"

Aika happened to be standing face to face with the person inside at a very close distance. Wei Xi's face looked a little tired, pale with a hint of flush, but surprise took up more of it.

"Ah...no..."

First, explain! But I didn’t know which aspect to explain, so I could only stutter out my words.

Wei Xi's surprised expression gradually faded away. If Aika was more careful, she would have noticed that her legs, which were formed into a splayed shape, were trembling slightly.

"when……"

"I saw you haven't come out for so long..."

"Did you hear everything..."

"No, no, I didn't hear anything!"

Although I don’t know what Wei Xi is referring to, it won’t be wrong to deny it first!

Aika shook her head desperately in order to make Wei Xi believe in herself.

"..."

Wei Xi remained silent and did not continue to ask further questions.

Aika quickly stepped away from the bathroom door. If Ling saw this scene now, he would definitely be eradicated from society without hesitation. Fortunately, Wei Xi would never do this to Aika.

Wei Xi clutched her chest and ran away from Aika. Looking at her back as she left like a rabbit, Aika sighed. Worrying too much will cause misunderstandings. It would be great if Wei Xi could understand.

She must be able to understand...

With this faint expectation, Aika returned to the room where Wei Xi was while thinking about how to ease the awkward atmosphere just now.

…………

At first, Wei Xi still responded wordlessly to the "gossip" that Aika racked her brains to come up with. Gradually, her dull tone returned to its normal tone, and Aika let go of her tense nerves.

Turn off the glass chandelier in the house, and the streetlight light transmitted through the glass window becomes the only light source in the house. The heating in the room can be turned on all the time, but Aika still seriously told Wei Xi to cover herself with a quilt.

Sleeping in the bed that was not yet completely warm, Aika suddenly felt homesick. The sheets and bedding were all the same, but he felt a completely different feeling from home. No matter what position he was in, he couldn't feel the comfort.

In the end, Aika chose to give up and just stared at the dark ceiling. It's incredible to say that if it were normal, my eyelids would almost feel heavy now, but today I didn't feel sleepy at all, and there were no spots on the ceiling that I could count to sleep.

When you close your eyes, you are completely plunged into darkness. There is no concept of the passage of time, and it feels like the world has stopped. In the still world, Aika heard the only movement.

Wei Xi......

Are you sobbing...?

He looked in that direction. It was hard to see clearly in the dark, but the slightly squirming quilt told Aika that she was not asleep either.

Wei Xi was obviously suppressing her voice. She didn't know that on this quiet winter night, even if her whole body was hidden in the thick quilt, a trace of sound would be heard by those who cared about her.

After being kidnapped by those unknown men, Wei Xi only shed tears once in Aika's arms. After that, she never showed any signs of weakness, which made people forget her age. There must be panic and dissatisfaction hidden in her heart, but she refused to say anything, she just didn't want to be a burden.

"Wei Xi..."

Out of nowhere, Aika called her name. As soon as the words came out, Aika remembered that since he could even hear her sobs, there was no doubt that his voice was also heard by her.

The sobbing suddenly stopped, and there was no movement on Wei Xi's bed.

…………

The bed at home, when I first fell asleep, I could feel the coldness. Sister Ling goes to bed later than him every day. To be precise, he doesn't even know when she goes to bed. However, in this way, you can use your own body temperature to help Sister Ling warm the bed, although I don’t know if Sister Ling will find this disgusting...

Going to bed at this time has left a memory on your body. Soon, consciousness became blurred. Some intermittent fragments emerge like a slideshow under the influence of light sleep.

That night lingers in my mind.

At that time, I was unconscious most of the time. But now, I have to replay those dozens of minutes as an actor in a sober state.

As long as you scream hard or turn over slightly, this dream will disappear.

It's such a simple thing, but my body can't do what I want.

A day in a dream is just a moment in reality. Wei Xi was forcefully forced to perform until the end, and her body was freed.

The warm quilt finally became colder than before, but I could no longer feel that kind of thing.

There was a cold feeling in the corner of his eyes, and a small patch of moisture was already on the pillow.

My nose was sore and my voice could no longer be concealed. Pulling the quilt over my head, I felt the cold air coming towards me. I can only hug my knees under the quilt, curl up into a ball, and use my own body temperature to warm myself.

I didn't want to make any noise, but tears flowed to my nose and it became difficult to breathe. He could only sniff and wipe away the tears that kept pouring out with the back of his hand.

…………

Obviously, Wei Xi heard Aika's voice. She pretended to be asleep and remained motionless. It was impossible to hide this from Aika. Since she chose to avoid it, she could only use a tougher approach.

The heating was on in the room, so I didn't find it difficult to get out of bed, although the heat did not penetrate into the quilt. Aika grabbed the quilt wrapped by Wei Xi and planned to lift it off. An unexpected force resisted him. Wei Xi grabbed the corner of the quilt and refused to let go.

"don't want!"

Now that you’ve called it out like this, isn’t it pointless to pretend? Aika's hand relaxed a little, but she continued to maintain the stalemate with Wei Xi.

"It's okay, it's not that cold in the house."

"No..." Wei Xi desperately pulled the quilt back, but she soon understood that this was just useless, so she could only continue to maintain the current stalemate, "I just don't want Brother Aika to see... "

Of course, girls don't like to let others see their crying cheeks. Aika forgot this fact for a while. He let go of his hand and the quilt shrank into a small ball again.

"I won't turn on the light. Go wash your face. I'll wait for you."

Aika turned her back, and behind her came the rustling sound and the footsteps of indoor slippers on the floor.

It wasn't until the bathroom door closed that Aika turned on the chandelier and looked back at Wei Xi's messy bed.

"Now I have to apologize to the hotel waitress..."

Even if it is washed, it will not be used immediately. You can only notify the waiter to come over and replace it with a new set of bedding. Aika originally thought about making Wei Xi's bed, but then she thought about it and decided to wait until she came back and agreed before taking action.

The bathroom door opened, and Wei Xi, who had washed her face with warm water, took small steps back here. Seeing the mess she made on the bed, she felt very uncomfortable. So she didn't sit down, just stood there, waiting for Aika to say something.

"I'll contact the waiter and ask her to change the sheets for you."

"No need...and it's embarrassing..."

Wei Xi raised her red eyes. It was only eleven o'clock in the evening, and the hotel was open 24 hours a day, so it couldn't be called a big trouble at all. But since Wei Xi didn't want outsiders to see this appearance, she couldn't be forced to change it.

"Then let me help you repave it."

"No need! I can just do it myself..."

Wei Xi hurriedly stopped Aika.

But seeing Wei Xi's clumsiness, Aika finally compromised and helped.

"Don't cry alone," Aika deliberately rubbed Wei Xi's little head before going to sleep. "Otherwise, wouldn't the meaning of my being here be completely lost?"

After rubbing it randomly, Aika asked Wei Xi to go to bed first while he wanted to go to the bathroom.

After watching Wei Xi cover herself with the quilt again, he turned off the light in the bedroom.

…………

At this time, in a room very far away from here, four girls were sitting together, looking at the cards on the ground with solemn expressions.

"The decision is yours!"

Ling said this and readily took out one of the cards with the front facing underneath.

Seeing her expression immediately darkening, Abby and Xixi couldn't help covering their mouths and snickering.

"Sister Ling, no matter how you look at it, it can't be that picture..."

When it was Luoluo's turn, she drew the target card effortlessly.

"Why are you so skilled!"

"Ah haha..." Faced with Ling's aggressive questioning, Luoluo could only laugh dryly, "Maybe it's because I often played this game with my brother when I was a child..."

"Ah - it's nice to have a caring brother -"

"I was shown off again invisibly——"

Abby and Xixi laughed and teased Luoluo.

She covered her face slightly with the cards in her hand and smiled bitterly.

"But he is alone in a room with Wei Xi now..."

"On this dark and windy night, a man and a woman alone..."

"In order to seek each other's warmth..."

"Dry wood and fierce fire..."

"Brother, he wouldn't do that!"

Luoluo blushed and interrupted the two people's intensifying delusion.

"Besides, Wei Xi is not that kind of girl..."

Ling added, but her voice revealed her guilty conscience. Her hand had reached into the pocket where she kept her PDA.

"Anyway, just confirm it..."

Luoluo couldn't help but pick up the PDA. This is just to convince Abby and Xixi, who are very imaginative, and definitely not because they doubt their brother's innocence... Absolutely not!
