If it were a regular ti, being alone wouldn't be a big deal...
but recently, she had just gone through a huge change, and she was still a bit scared...
So just thinking about being left here alone made her quite anxious to speak!
Sensing her anxiety, Hu Xiaobei gently said, "It's alright! Don't worry, just go to sleep! I'll have Hei and Bai stand guard outside for you!"
Previously, Hu Xiaobei had considered having Hei and Bai stand guard by the door and window...
This way, they could ensure nothing would go wrong...
Hearing Hu Xiaobei ntion Hei and Bai, she whispered, "But, but I'm still scared, you...can you stay here tonight?"
Embarrassed!
When Murong Qingqing asked that question, she was particularly embarrassed!
But even so, she said it anyway...
Because she was truly afraid of Hu Xiaobei leaving.
Knowing that she was genuinely scared, Hu Xiaobei nodded, "Sure! I'll stay here! I'll go next door and bring a folding bed over, and then I'll be right beside you, so just call if you need anything."
"Alright, Xiaobei, thank you!"
Upon hearing such a gentle thank you, Hu Xiaobei softly replied, "Silly! There's no need to be polite with ! Don't be so polite anymore, otherwise, I'll get angry, okay?"
"Okay! I'll rember that in the future!"
With a calm smile, she quickly pulled up her blanket!
Soon, she lay down again.
Hu Xiaobei glanced at her and slowly walked out.
After closing the room door, Hu Xiaobei looked at Hei and Bai, who were lying not far away...
Sensing their vigilance, Hu Xiaobei smiled and said, "Alright! You two aren't needed here anymore. You can go back and rest!"
Hu Xiaobei knew that since he was staying here, they no longer needed to guard.
Whether it was Hei or Bai, they fully complied with Hu Xiaobei's instructions, so now, hearing Hu Xiaobei's command, they lazily stood up.
Soon, they wagged their tails and walked away quickly.
The rotund Treasure-hunting Rabbit, after they left, grabbed the ginseng it had been nibbling on and left as well.
After they had left, Hu Xiaobei quickly went to another room to bring back a folding bed.
Upon returning to the room, Hu Xiaobei saw Murong Qingqing looking at him with anticipation, truly resembling a woman waiting for her husband to return after just getting married.
"This feeling is quite nice!"
Praising it aloud, Hu Xiaobei carefully put down the folding bed...
After setting it up, Hu Xiaobei gently said, "Alright! Everything's ready here, so rest up. You'll be fully recovered by tomorrow morning."
"Mm!"
Nodding lightly, Murong Qingqing quickly lay down.
Soon, she looked at Hu Xiaobei with so excitent and said expectantly, "Xiaobei, I...I can't sleep! Could you tell a bedti story?"
Hearing this suggestion, Hu Xiaobei's lips twitched...
After turning around, Hu Xiaobei saw her looking at him with imnse anticipation!
At that mont, Hu Xiaobei knew he couldn't refuse!
With that thought, Hu Xiaobei said, "Alright then! I'll tell you a story!"
Truthfully, Hu Xiaobei wasn't really good at telling stories!
But he still wanted to give it a try!
Not knowing what to talk about, Hu Xiaobei decided to share so of his previous experiences in Miaojiang.
After finishing the story, Hu Xiaobei looked at her and asked nervously, "So, was it boring?"
Upon asking this, he received an extrely enthusiastic response!
"Not boring, it was actually very, very good! I've never heard such an exciting story before; did you make it up?"
"Not exactly made up, it's actually my real experience! I've been to Miaojiang before!"
"Oh! I've heard of that place too, but I've never been there! Now after hearing your story, I really feel like I should visit if I get the chance."
Thinking of the dangers in Miaojiang, Hu Xiaobei quickly said, "Hey! You'd better not go there! People there love beautiful girls, and if you go, your chances of coming back aren't great."
Murong Qingqing, who was initially looking forward, quickly replied to Hu Xiaobei's warning, "You...are you telling the truth?"
"Yes! I'm not lying to you! Plus, there are all kinds of snakes, insects, rats, and ants over there. You wouldn't be able to stand it."
Hearing Hu Xiaobei ntion snakes and insects, Murong Qingqing wanted to argue back but couldn't say anything...
Because she was really scared of snakes and insects!
Seeing her expression worsen, Hu Xiaobei said, "Alright! The story's over! Now go to sleep properly."
"Okay."
After saying that, Murong Qingqing closed her eyes.
Hu Xiaobei smiled and slowly closed his eyes too.
Hu Xiaobei had also gone through a lot today, so he was a bit tired...
Just like that, he soon fell into a deep sleep and didn't wake up until the next morning.
The mont he opened his eyes, Hu Xiaobei instinctively looked towards the bed not far away...
Only to see that Murong Qingqing wasn't there...
"Where is she, could sothing have happened?"
Thinking that, Hu Xiaobei quickly stood up!
Soon, he rushed outside, shouting, "Sister Qingqing!"
His frantic shouting startled Guo iyu and the others in the courtyard.
Sensing their puzzlent, Hu Xiaobei took a careful look and then realized Murong Qingqing was standing beside them at that mont. Apparently, she was chatting and laughing with the three of them just now.
"That was a bit embarrassing just now!"
While Hu Xiaobei was thinking this, he heard a gentle tease!
"Oh dear, what's going on? Just a little while apart, and you can't hold back!"
"Exactly!"
"I think so too!"
Hu Xiaobei's lips twitched...
He was long used to their teasing, so he wasn't too embarrassed this ti...
But Murong Qingqing hadn't experienced this before, so her face instantly turned red with embarrassnt!
Seeing Murong Qingqing look so nervous and uneasy, Hu Xiaobei coughed lightly and whispered, "Earlier, I...I had a nightmare, sorry for scaring you all."
After saying that, Hu Xiaobei awkwardly walked back to his room!
The mont he turned around, he heard soft laughter...
Twenty minutes later, Hu Xiaobei sat at the table with the others...
Glancing at Murong Qingqing, whose cheeks were still slightly red, Hu Xiaobei softly asked, "Sister Qingqing, do you feel better now? Why didn't you sleep a while longer before?"
At that ti, Hu Xiaobei was genuinely puzzled...
According to Hu Xiaobei's thinking, Murong Qingqing really should have slept a bit longer.
Hearing Hu Xiaobei's curious inquiry, Murong Qingqing rolled her eyes and softly said, "I...I wanted to sleep too! But so people's snoring was just too loud, I couldn't sleep at all, so I had to co out."
Hearing that explanation, the smile on Hu Xiaobei's face gradually faded...
Just as he was about to say sothing to defend himself, he heard further teasing from the three others!
"Sister Qingqing is right! Xiaobei's snoring is indeed very loud!"
"I agree with that!"
" too! too!"
"I...I..."
Hu Xiaobei rubbed his nose, at this mont, he really didn't know what to say...
