Chapter 260: Is This the Price of Buying a Big Pillow?!

Ah…. So that’s how it is.

An Yu had done something, but the result was already very clear.

Ning Dongli blinked as she realized it. Although she didn’t know exactly what Ning Wanciu had done to An Yu last night, An Yu had probably become aware that Ning Wanciu liked her.

Had she realized that girls could also have that kind of possibility? Or had she realized that Ning Wanciu liked her, which was why she was so embarrassed that she ran away from Ning Wanciu’s side?

Ning Dongli didn’t know. But she did know that An Yu was feeling shy.

Was she confused? She was even covering her chest because her heartbeat had sped up and she didn’t understand why.

A complicated look flashed through Ning Dongli’s eyes, but she still acted as if nothing had happened. She slowly walked over to An Yu’s side and gently patted her back.

An Yu.. are you okay?

When touched by Ning Dongli, An Yu instinctively felt a bit of panic, but it quickly subsided.

Her face was slightly flushed, but she still shook her head.

I’m fine.

Mm.. really?

Mm.

An Yu nodded expressionlessly. She looked just like she always did.

But.. what she was really thinking, no one knew.

She silently turned on the faucet and began her daily washing routine.

Then.. An Yu, you go first…

She would just go ask Ning Wanciu directly. Ning Dongli made a move to leave. She wouldn’t be able to get anything out of An Yu anyway.

This was also one of the benefits of laying her cards on the table. Relationship problems could be asked about directly without hiding anything.

It wasn’t a bad idea when she thought about it.

But Ning Dongli had never expected that An Yu would actually reach out and grab her sleeve.

Don’t go. Stay with me.

The girl’s voice carried a bit more warmth than usual, as if she was unconsciously acting spoiled.

Ning Dongli froze for a moment. She looked at An Yu in front of her with some surprise.

Right now, the usually cold girl was showing an expression Ning Dongli had never seen before. She slightly lowered her head, her amber eyes staring straight at her, as if she was afraid Ning Dongli would suddenly leave.

What did that mean.. was she pleading?

Ning Dongli felt as if her heart had been struck. Her body trembled slightly as her protective instincts were wildly triggered without control.

Especially when a beautiful girl like An Yu, who rarely showed expressions, suddenly made a face like that. It was hard not to feel distressed.

What the hell.. that expression.. was way too unfair!

The longer Ning Dongli stayed silent, the closer An Yu moved toward her.

Mm… The girl suddenly shook her head. “I-I won’t leave. Let’s wash up together, An Yu.”

Although she didn’t know why An Yu had become like this, Ning Dongli chose to go along with it.

Or rather, she didn’t know what kind of creature could possibly refuse An Yu when she was acting like this.

Mm!

An Yu’s voice rose slightly. Her little head nodded gently. She looked incredibly cute.

At the same time.. she felt a little more at ease.

Then I.. will continue.

An Yu spoke hesitantly. For some reason, she had been acting like this all morning. She was completely unlike her usual self.

Okay!

Ning Dongli smiled and nodded. Since An Yu had suddenly changed, then she would play the role of the cheerful one!

It seemed like seeing Ning Dongli’s smile made An Yu feel even more at ease.

She scooped up some water and silently wet her cheeks.

Her heartbeat.. had finally calmed down.

It had been racing non-stop ever since last night.

Uneasy… This was normal, wasn’t it?

Because of those somewhat unclear feelings in her heart, An Yu was filled with unease.

It was precisely because of this that she had chosen to run away from Ning Wanciu’s side and dragged Ning Dongli to wash up with her.

Just as she had expected, after leaving Ning Wanciu’s side, her heartbeat.. had finally quieted down.

So noisy.. it was really so noisy.

So.. why exactly had she become like this?

An Yu herself didn’t know either. The only thing she knew was the sound of her own heartbeat.

Although An Yu knew this was an unreasonable request, she hoped that her heartbeat could quiet down a little.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t be able to sleep.

Since.. when had it become like this?

While washing her face, An Yu subconsciously touched her own lips.

Soft and smooth… The feeling was pretty good.

Was Ning Wanciu also because of this, that she…

Last night, Ning Wanciu had kissed her. She had definitely kissed her.

Why did she kiss her? Why did she do that?

The girl couldn’t figure it out, but she couldn’t stop thinking about it either.

Because the scene of Ning Wanciu kissing her.. mm, she couldn’t recall it clearly.

Because she had closed her eyes.

However, that sensation kept replaying over and over in An Yu’s mind.

She had been overthinking from last night until now. It was precisely because of that feeling An Yu couldn’t understand that she had chosen to escape for the first time last night.

Last night, An Yu had hurriedly pulled Ning Wanciu into bed and then turned her back to her before closing her eyes.

Although they still slept under the same blanket and were still pressed together, this time it felt a little different.

Because An Yu seemed to have finally become aware of Ning Wanciu’s existence.

She was a living, breathing person. Not just a pillow for sleeping.

Ning Wanciu had warmth. She could talk. She would also actively hug her.

Her embrace was very comfortable. More comfortable than any pillow.

But.. as expected, a big pillow couldn’t really be considered a true pillow. She was a person. She would do things that a pillow would absolutely never do.

And because she was a person.. she would have needs.

Ning Wanciu.

An Yu finished washing her face and gently wiped it with a towel.

She blinked at her reflection in the mirror. Those amber eyes were filled with confusion.

She didn’t understand.. To her, Ning Wanciu had always been a daily necessity. But would a daily necessity go this far?

A pillow only needed to be bought and brought home. But Ning Wanciu..

In order to have a permanent big pillow.. was this the price she had to pay?

If that was the case..

Then.. it was acceptable?

Acceptable. Acceptable what?

An Yu stared blankly at her reflection in the mirror. A blush gradually spread across her face.

For example, if Ning Wanciu wanted to kiss her again next time, then she would just let her, or something like that.

The girl fell silent. She didn’t know what kind of messy thoughts were running through her head, but she just couldn’t stop herself from overthinking.

An Yu held the towel and subconsciously glanced at Ning Dongli, who was staying by her side.

If Ning Wanciu had needs, then the little pillow.. Ning Dongli would also have them, right?

An Yu slightly lowered her gaze and looked at Ning Dongli’s soft, pink cherry lips.

Would she.. also want to kiss her?

The girl’s amber eyes unconsciously stared straight at Ning Dongli, making her feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Um.. what’s wrong, An Yu?

Ning Dongli subconsciously spoke. There was a hint of confusion in her voice.

Mm mm, it’s nothing.

An Yu shook her head and didn’t voice the doubts in her heart.

But.. if it was Ning Dongli, should she also agree?

The girl placed her hand on her chest. Her feelings were somewhat complicated.

Things like romance were, for An Yu, truly beyond the scope of what she understood.

Ning Wanciu would never have imagined that the kiss she had been interrupted from giving would once again create such a huge impact on An Yu.

If she knew, she wouldn’t know whether to feel happy or helpless.
