Chapter 1462: You Are My Little Love Song (29)
She stared at the string of numbers, stared at the name, and bit her lip lightly. Her fingertips slowly moved back and forth on the phone. She considered this for more than ten minutes, but her remaining rationality forced her to retract her fingers.
She placed her phone back under her pillow and closed her eyes to see the string of numbers on her phone. She felt that she should do something, but what should she do? Even if she was really texting, what should she send?
After dawdling for a long while, s.h.i.+ Niange took out her phone again. She stared at the number on the screen and sent three words: [Qin Siting?]
After sending the message, she looked up at the time displayed on the screen.
It was already 10: 30 p.m.
It was winter vacation. Unlike usual, everyone slept very early. At this time, he must be asleep.
However, she had already sent it out. Even if he hadn’t slept, he probably wouldn’t replied. However, she felt very satisfied after sending it out. She placed her phone back on the bedside table and took a deep breath. All right, let’s sleep.
However, before she could fall asleep, her phone vibrated.
s.h.i.+ Niange opened her eyes in a daze and looked at her phone. When she saw the screen light up for a moment, her heart skipped a beat.
Could it be…
At this time?
Would Qin Siting reply to her?
She abruptly sat up from the bed and quickly picked up the phone. When she opened the screen, she felt as though her heart was about to jump out of her throat. She looked down and saw that it was really Qin Siting.
He really replied!
Qin Siting: [?]
A question mark.
Although there were very few words and it could be said that there were not even any words, only a punctuation mark, it was enough to shock s.h.i.+ Niange.
A question mark.
The question mark sent by Qin Siting!
Such a concise question mark definitely proved that it was really him.
But since it was a question mark, it meant that she could continue writing to him!
No more sleep!
s.h.i.+ Niange pressed the phone against her chest for a moment before quickly sitting upright on the bed. She held the phone and looked at the question mark on it seriously, then began to consider how she should reply.
Then she slowly tapped her finger on the screen word by word: [Did I disturb your rest?]
She then carefully pressed send.
Her phone vibrated again, and he replied quickly.
[No.]
She didn’t disturb him! Then he shouldn’t be reading or be busy right now. Perhaps he was lying on the bed like her and hadn’t fallen asleep!
This meant that her Almighty Qin was lying down and chatting with her!
s.h.i.+ Niange immediately laid back on the bed. She held her phone in one hand and quickly covered herself with the blanket with the other. She held her phone and muttered softly, “Calm down, calm down. I want to calm down. If this continues, we won’t be able to continue chatting…”
What should she say now?
She held her phone, her face full of sweetness but also a little troubled. Then she bit her lip and replied: [Recently, the weather in Hai City has been quite cold. Do you go out often during your holidays? You have to be careful against the cold. School will start in a week. Be careful not to catch a cold.]
She could not hesitate any longer. If she dawdled any longer, Qin Siting might fall asleep. However, after sending the message, she looked at the content and regretted it.
What was she sending?
What cold protection? What cold?
She buried her face in her hands and buried herself under the blanket. She held her phone in her arms. She couldn’t tell if she was upset or something, but there was a hint of sweetness in her heart.
Her phone vibrated again. She lowered her head to take a look and saw a simple and cold word: [En.]
She paused and looked at the time. There was less than an hour and a half left until today.
But in this half an hour, he could fall asleep at any time.
Looking at the words he had sent, there were only two words and three punctuation marks.
However, s.h.i.+ Niange felt that these words were too beautiful. Looking at Qin Siting’s words on the screen, she felt extremely warm and gentle.
She was also afraid that if she continued, Qin Siting would feel annoyed. She was afraid that if she continued chatting with him in the middle of the night, not only would she disturb his rest time, but she would also feel that she was being too long-winded. After all, in his eyes, they were just deskmates. The only reason he replied was because they were deskmates. It was still the holidays and they could not meet normally. It was really not good for her to send him a message in the middle of the night without any reason.
But what else could she say?
Say goodnight to me?
Then the purpose of her texting him tonight would not be achieved.
Originally…
She just wanted him to wish her a happy birthday.
What should she send?
“Almighty Qin, today is my birthday. Can you wish me a happy birthday?”
… It felt stupid.
She could say, “Dear deskmate, I’m eighteen years old today!”
… which felt even more stupid.
How could she let him know that it was her birthday today, so he could take the initiative to say happy birthday?
She turned back to look at the cake that a relative had sent over in the morning. She had forgotten to bring it down. She then looked at the crystal calendar by the side.
s.h.i.+ Niange’s gaze s.h.i.+fted. She lifted the blanket and ran to the cake. She opened the box and moved the calendar on the table close to the cake. After some thought, she found her student identification card and placed it aside. Her birth date was written on it.
After placing it together, she felt satisfied and sent him a photo.
After sending it, she quickly sent him another cute smiley face.
Silence was better than words.
He would understand, right?
After sending the photo and the smiley face, the message suddenly sank like a stone into the ocean. There was no reply for a long time.
He fell asleep?
It was almost eleven o’clock. She had taken her time adjusting the cake, the stage, and the student ID. She had even taken a few photos to find a good and clear angle. It had taken so long. He should be asleep.
The sweetness in s.h.i.+ Niange’s heart, which was about to float up, instantly faded. However, after thinking about it carefully, to be able to receive Qin Siting’s reply on her birthday, and there were even three messages, this could be considered a birthday gift for her.
At the thought of this, she felt happy again. She took out the cake and asked Auntie Xiang to put it in the fridge. She then closed the door and returned to bed. This time, she could not fall asleep with the blanket over her.
She kept wondering if he had seen her message.
Could it be that the photo had failed? Did he not see it?
After thinking for a long time, she was afraid that he was really asleep and did not dare to disturb him again.
After a few minutes, the phone in her hand vibrated again. She immediately picked it up and quickly opened the screen.
