DAVM Chapter 53.3

There were only Ji Zhile and Pei Jing in the room. Watching Pei Jing climb up to the upper bunk, Ji Zhile thought about it and gave Pei Jing his own doll.

“Let Wanwan sleep with you at night, so you won’t be afraid.”

Pei Jing said, “I’m not afraid.”

Ji Zhile insisted, “You’ll be scared, it’s dark at night.”

He would be scared when he went to sleep at his grandmother’s house because it wasn’t a place where he often stayed. Ji Zhile thought Brother Pei Jing would be scared too, but Brother Pei Jing was already in elementary school, so he must be too embarrassed to admit it.

Seeing Ji Zhile’s insistence, Pei Jing took the doll: “Thank you, Zhile.”

Ji Zhile said, “You’re welcome.”

Since he went to bed and slept with a new person, Ji Zhile had many questions to ask: “Is Brother Pei Jing sleeping alone at home?”

In the dark environment, Pei Jing pinched the doll’s soft body: “Yes.”

No one sleeps with him. He is used to being alone, so he is not afraid of the dark.

“My brother and I also sleep alone, we are both very good.” Ji Zhile praised others and wanted to praise himself too.

“Brother Pei Jing told a really good story tonight. Let’s listen to my mother’s story tomorrow night. My mother’s story is also very good.”

Pei Jing gave a low ‘hmm’. His mother’s drunkenness should be sober tomorrow, and he won’t be locked out of the door. For a while, Pei Jing did not know whether it was luck or misfortune.

Although Ji Zhile was very excited, his biological clock had a strong influence, and he fell asleep while talking.

Pei Jing put the doll beside his pillow and fell asleep too.

It’s just that Pei Jing was woken up in the middle of the night, and someone was calling him in his ear.

Pei Jing had a nightmare and thought that he was still at home. Once, his mother dropped something at home after being drunk. He woke up and was a little scared, but he huddled on the bed and did not dare to move, fearing that he would be hurt.

Even though he was not awake, his body remained curled up in a self-protective posture, frowning and motionless, as if this could avoid harm.

Until a pair of hands touched his face, accompanied by the child’s anxious voice: “Brother Pei Jing, wake up.”

This reminded Pei Jing of something, and his body slowly relaxed. He blinked and saw the surroundings clearly. He was in Ji Zhile’s room.

Ji Zhile withdrew the hand that touched his face just now, and he looked at him anxiously and a little bit shyly.

“What’s wrong?”

Ji Zhile whispered, “Brother Pei Jing, can you accompany me to the bathroom? I’m so scared alone.”

“Okay.” Pei Jing got off the bed, and Ji Zhile was standing by the bed and climbed down from the stool he had just stepped on.

He grabbed Pei Jing’s hand: “This way I won’t be afraid.”

A really timid kid.

After going to the bathroom, Ji Zhile said, “Brother Pei Jing can also call me if you want to go to the bathroom later.”

He is very fair. Pei Jing accompanies him, and he will accompany Pei Jing.

Jing Pei nodded and said yes.

But until the alarm clock rang the next day, Pei Jing did not ask Ji Zhile to accompany him to the bathroom.

Pei Jing woke up when the alarm clock rang for the first time and crawled out of bed. He found that Ji Zhile was still sleeping, but he was also disturbed by the alarm clock. He turned over, covered his head with the quilt, and continued to sleep.

Pei Jing wondered. They went to bed very early last night. How could someone want to sleep after sleeping for so long? (T/N: Ehm… are you mocking me, Pei Jing?)

After turning off the alarm clock, Pei Jing thought for a while and resorted to artificial waking up to call Ji Zhile.

Lifting the quilt, Ji Zhile said in a daze, “Brother Pei Jing, can I sleep for another five minutes? Just five minutes.”

After a night of sleep, Ji Zhile’s voice was rustling and childish, so he could act like a baby. Pei Jing had never met such a child before, so he could only say: “Okay.”

Last night, Si Tian prepared a toothbrush and towel for Pei Jing. After brushing his teeth, Pei Jing found that five minutes had come and woke Ji Zhile up again.

Ji Zhile was as dazed as before: “Brother Pei Jing, I’ll sleep for a while, one minute, just one minute.”

Pei Jing frowned: “But, you have been asleep for five minutes just now.”

“Just a minute more, please.”

“Okay…” Pei Jing still could not resist Ji Zhile’s coquettish offensive.
