It’s Colder Today

Fifteen Degrees Part 5

When Shi Yun heard him speak those obscene words, she raised her leg and kicked him lightly under the blanket: “I’m talking to you seriously.”

“Understood.” Wei Congying didn’t dodge, and let her kick him, “Then where do I go to find a bed that’s not soft in the middle of the night? How about we go down to the carpet and sleep on it?”

She still felt that he was not serious. Shi Yun turned over and faced him with the back of her head.

Seeing that she was angry, Wei Congying smiled even more happily. He raised his hand to fish her up, putting one arm under her neck, and the other arm around her: “There now.”

——The words, ‘There now,’ seemed coaxing.

Wei Congying: “Then pick a mattress that you feel is comfortable and good for your waist when sleeping. Send it to me, and I’ll buy it.”

Sleeping on an arm pillow was romantic but uncomfortable, but Shi Yun didn’t tell him to take his arm back, nor did she forbid him from hugging her. She half leaned in his arms. She closed her eyes and relaxed, her tone sounding a little tired: “What’s the use in me thinking it’s comfortable? Try it yourself, and then try to choose a hard one.”

“Try it myself?” Wei Congying teased her, “How is that enough? Won’t you come over to sleep later?”

Wei Congying’s eyes were beautiful, peach blossom eyes. The double eyelids were also very obvious. Perhaps it was eyelash growth liquid, but his lower and upper eyelashes were very long.

Shi Yun’s eyes fell on his face, every time she looked at him, Shi Yun would fall in a daze for a long time.

The night light had been kept on all night, and now its’ light and the light coming in from the curtains blended together.

Last night, Wei Congying had pulled his arms back at some point. Now he was lying on the bed on his stomach with his arms stretched out under the pillow, and half of his face sunken in the pillow. It seemed many guys liked this sleeping position very much.

Shi Yun looked at his face for a long time.

She noticed that a tuft of his hair was curled up, standing in the air.

It was like a little pigtail.

The room was very quiet. There was some fine dust on the projector, and the meticulously written words teeming the page lay silently on the paper. Everything in the room was silent, with only the sound of their light breathing.

Shi Yun raised her hand and pushed back the tuft of hair. After she was done, and before she could retract her hand back under the bed covers, Shi Yun realized that he was awake.

Wei Congying stretched out his arm and pulled her into his arms. Shi Yun’s face was pressed against his pajamas. He had just woken up; his voice was a little low and rusty. There was a little stubble on his chin which rubbed against Shi Yun’s cheek, a little ticklish but also painful. With his palm on her shoulder, Wei Congying could feel the coolness of her shoulder, so he pulled the quilt towards her.

Shi Yun struggled a bit, but he only hugged her even tighter: “Are you not sleepy anymore?”

“Not sleepy.” Shi Yun was not a person who could go back to sleep after waking up. And to begin with, this was her usual wake-up time.

But the owner of the two arms that were pressing on her didn’t seem to think so. He persisted in going back to sleep, showing that by closing one’s eyes and not talking, one could fall back asleep.

This was a point that people who have trouble falling asleep are unable to reach a consensus on.

But maybe she really was a little tired. Shi Yun closed her eyes, lay down for a while, and fell back asleep.

When she woke up again, there was no one next to her. But there was something under her head. She clearly recalled having taken the pillow out from under her head back then. Shi Yun yawned and turned to look. It was a few pieces of clothing, which were neatly folded and placed under her head.

The closed bedroom door was opened, and Wei Congying stood at the door. It didn’t seem like he intended to come in. Seeing the person on the bed looking back at him half asleep, Wei Congying opened the door completely, and stood at the end of the bed: “Breakfast is ready, do you smell the delicious scent?”

Shi Yun sniffed, then shook her head. She wasn’t a person who had a particularly difficult time getting up, and also because she was at his place, she found it too embarrassing to dawdle in bed and walked towards the bedroom door while yawning.

When Shi Yun came out of the bathroom after washing, her drowsiness was completely gone. As she walked out wearing slippers that were several sizes too big, Wei Congying was already sitting at the dining table.

There was only a cup of coffee in front of him, and next to the seat across from him was a bowl of porridge.

There were two small bowls next to the porridge.

In one bowl were fried eggs with yolks and whites separated, and a little soy sauce and vinegar had been poured into that bowl. The other bowl was empty, as he had just taken two hard-boiled eggs from the bowl, hit the tops of the eggs against the table, and cracked the shells.

A paper towel was placed beside him, and he threw the eggshells on the paper towel.

Wei Congying looked at Shi Yun, who was in a daze, and told her to quit standing there foolishly: “Don’t you not eat egg yolks? I’ve separated them.”

Fried eggs that had been cooked a little longer than usual.

The eggs with the whites and yolks separated were like fish meat without the fishbones. She ate without hesitation.

Shi Yun chewed on the fried egg that suited her taste and slowly raised her head to look at the person opposite. He had already peeled the hard-boiled egg. While cleaning up the eggshells, he met Shi Yun’s gaze.

In fact, he didn’t need to go this far, as she was not the perfect prey he was imagining her to be. She didn’t want to take Scheherazade’s script, and she wouldn’t act out such a script.

She felt a little guilty, especially when she met Wei Congying’s gaze, so she subconsciously looked away, but it led to him mistaking it for her feeling embarrassed.

The bowls and chopsticks for breakfast were waiting in the dishwasher together with the pots and pans from the previous night to be washed.

Wei Congying’s coffee was cooling on the coffee table, and he was lying on the sofa. He was a tall man, occupying most of the sofa. He lazily played with his phone, as if he usually had nothing to do. Shi Yun went to the sofa and sat down next to him, and took her feet out of the slippers that didn’t fit.
