374 Three People With Insomnia

Back in the dormitory, Zhou Jiajia carefully fiddled with the rose in her hands, fearing it would be broken. She picked it up gingerly and looked at it.

“Jiajia, what are you doing? Why are you being surreptitious today? It’s just a broken flower. Are the flowers you received daily any less than this?” Wang Xue asked inexplicably. Even if Yang Ming gave it to you, there’s no need to behave as such! It’s merely an item which doesn’t even mean anything special! This Zhou Jiajia is really a goner!

“Vase? Where’s my vase?” Zhou Jiajia didn’t bother with Wang Xue, but she jumped out of bed and began to rummage around to find the vase.

“Your vase? Didn’t you lend it to Miao Miao in the next bedroom as a pen holder? Have you forgotten about it?” Wang Xue reminded her.

“Oh, ya, it seems to be…” Zhou Jiajia rushed straight out of the bedroom door and ran to the next bedroom. Under the very strange eyes of the people in the next bedroom, Zhou Jiajia poured out the pens in the vase and took the vase back.

“Uh? Is that Zhou Jiajia?” A girl in the bedroom next door asked.

“It is by her appearance. Is she possessed?” Another girl in the bedroom next door replied.

“Most likely!” A third girl shook her head.

Zhou Jiajia ran to the bathroom. She brushed the vase clean and filled it with some water. Then, she returned to the bedroom to insert the rose into the vase on the bedside. Wang Xue was dumbfounded looking at her.

When Zhou Jiajia got all of this done, she breathed a sigh of relief and spoke to herself, “I will nurture this flower all along…”

“Nurture? How many days can you nurture it?” Wang Xue looked at Zhou Jiajia’s infatuated expression as she said with annoyance, “Jiajia, don’t be stupid. Even you nurtured the flower, how many days can it live? Two or three days. By that time, it will already be dead!”

“Ah? You’re right!” Zhou Jiajia slapped her head. It’s all my bad by being too impatient. How can I not think about this? Zhou Jiajia shook her head with a self-deprecating tone, “Wang Xue, how can I not let the flower wilt?”

“Not wilt? Are you a flower fairy? Unless you make a specimen!” Wang Xue was a little dumbfounded. She shook her head helplessly and said, “Jiajia, stop being like this. Isn’t it just a flower? Is it worth it?”

“Oh ya, why didn’t I think about that?” Zhou Jiajia only heard the first half of Wang Xue’s words and turned a blind ear to the latter half. “Wang Xue, where do you think I can make a specimen?”

“…you can go to the gift shop and ask…” Wang Xue was helpless. It seemed that Zhou Jiajia didn’t listen to her at all. She almost lost her mind, so she changed the topic, “Oh ya, Jiajia, what did Chen Mengyan say to you when she went to look for you? Isn’t she Yang Ming’s girlfriend? Why was she looking for you?”

“Ah… nothing in particular…” Although Zhou Jiajia was very buddy-buddy with Wang Xue, she was so embarrassed about the incident with Yang Ming kissing her that she couldn’t say it.

“That’s strange, Jiajia. You are so strange today!” Wang Xue frowned and sighed.

Zhou Jiajia was lying on the bed as she stared blankly at the vase and giggled from time to time…

When Yang Ming returned to his dormitory, Chen Fei’s phone call came in. Yang Ming found it somewhat inexplicable. What’s going on with Uncle Chen? In the middle of the night, it’s almost two o’clock. Why is he calling so late?

“Hello, Uncle Chen, what’s the matter?” Yang Ming asked curiously.

“Oh, Yang Ming. Nothing much. Where are you?” Chen Fei was actually afraid that Yang Ming would bring Chen Mengyan someplace to stay overnight. As a father, obviously he was very concerned, so here came a phone call.

“I’m at the university. What’s wrong, Uncle Chen?” Yang Ming replied inexplicably.

“Nothing, nothing, right now at the end of the year, the law and order outside isn’t quite good. I was worried about you…” Chen Fei laughed.

“Worried about me?” Yang Ming found it even more inexplicable. “Uncle Chen, don’t forget. I faced two fierce gangsters and killed one…”

“En, I’m relieved that you went back to the university. Then, it’s alright. Take an early rest.” Chen Fei hung up the phone with a sigh of relief! It was such a great display of parental love!

Yang Ming edited several text messages and sent them to Zhao Ying, Li Dagang, Xu Peng, Yang Xiaobo, etc. The main intention of the message was to wish them Merry Christmas. Suddenly, Yang Ming remembered Lin Zhiyun and quickly sent a message to her. However, Lin Zhiyun didn’t rest yet, and soon replied with a message, “You haven’t slept yet? Did you just come back with your girlfriend?”

Yang Ming broke into a sweat as he held his cell phone. Lin Zhiyun was now his girlfriend by name. Now she asked this question and made Yang Ming feel awkward.

“Ugh… I haven’t slept yet. You too?” Yang Ming deliberately avoided the problem that Chen Mengyan had just returned.

“Not yet. A few of my mother’s friends for many years had come over to the house. We celebrated Christmas Eve together and it was very lively. They just left. I’m helping my mother to pack things up.” Lin Zhiyun replied.

“I see. Is your leg alright?” Yang Ming asked.

“En, there’s basically no problem now… Oh ya, Yang Ming, can you come to my house tomorrow? My mother just told me to invite you over.” Lin Zhiyun replied.

Yang Ming looked at the message and contemplated a little. Logically speaking indeed today’s Christmas Eve is suitable for couples to go out and play together. Since I didn’t ask Lin Zhiyun out, it didn’t seem right. It’s hard to guarantee that Mother Lin won’t be suspicious about it.

Yang Ming beat his head as he realized his mistake! Even if I went to Lin Zhiyun and paid a visit, that would be great! No wonder Lin Zhiyun just asked me if I just came back after accompanying my girlfriend!

“Did your mother suspect anything?” Yang Ming sent a message over.

After a long time, Lin Zhiyun replied, “Well, my mother asked me if we had a quarrel. I told her no. You went to Wu Zhongjie as a tutor today. She just saw you texting me. She should rest assured. If you have something tomorrow… it’s fine if you can’t make it.”

Something? Even if I have something, I have to come! Yang Ming’s feelings for Lin Zhiyun were quite strange and overbearing. There was a strong desire to protect and a duty-bound feeling!

As long as it was involved with Lin Zhiyun, Yang Ming had to let go of anything and deal with her matter even if he had another serious matter on hand! So, Yang Ming replied without thinking about it, “I’m going. I will drop by tomorrow morning. You should tell Aunty Shen beforehand. I will arrive about nine o’clock. Is that alright with you?”

“Alright. Then, you should rest early, or else how can you get up tomorrow?” Lin Zhiyun replied.

“Okay, you should sleep as well. Let’s sleep together. Good night.” Yang Ming answered ambiguously.

Lin Zhiyun didn’t reply. He didn’t know whether she understood it. In fact, Lin Zhiyun certainly understood Yang Ming’s text message. For such a sensitive word “sleep together,” her pretty face suddenly blushed. She had recalled the memory fragments she had in the hotel where she was naked with Yang Ming. She couldn’t help but feel a heat crawling up within her.

From the moment of feeling hatred against Yang Ming to a calm mind after the event, and now to the present… Lin Zhiyun found out that she had an indescribable feeling for Yang Ming. In short, when she was with Yang Ming, there was a feeling of a slight increase in heartbeat. It was a bit exciting, a bit enjoyable, but most of it was fear.

Ever since her youth, Lin Zhiyun didn’t like any boys. The family conditions caused her not to consider other things besides studying. This was why she was lacking in terms of social experiences.

Therefore, Lin Zhiyun didn’t know what it was like to like a person. This also caused her to felt unnatural under the shadow of Yang Ming for now. Lin Zhiyun always reminded herself that she shouldn’t have a substantive relationship with Yang Ming because the relationship between them was feigned! Also, Yang Ming had a girlfriend. However, Lin Zhiyun didn’t know that feelings weren’t something that could be controlled perfectly.

If feelings can be controlled, then there wouldn’t be so many unrequited loves in this world!

Looking at the last message sent by Yang Ming, Lin Zhiyun obviously didn’t know how to reply, so she simply pretended to fall asleep and didn’t reply.

Although she was pretending to be asleep, in fact, Lin Zhiyun didn’t sleep for half of the night. She didn’t know why when she thought of Yang Ming, she felt a sense of sweetness in her heart.

Yang Ming tossed and turned all night, but soon he entered into a dream. However, what he didn’t know was that on this night, three people were destined to have insomnia. Moreover, they all had insomnia over the same person.

These three people were Chen Mengyan, Lin Zhiyun, and of course, Zhou Jiajia.
