Chapter 119: Half-Demi-Human (2/2)

Shen Cheng opened his eyes and looked at the dark ceiling in the night, then turned over and picked up his phone to check the time.

— 3 a.m.

“Did I sleep too early again…” He smiled bitterly, but then realized his bed felt a bit… cold?

It felt a little empty. He wanted to hug something to sleep…

Is this the aftereffect of Cheese and Sugar crawling into his bed every night?

Maybe… he should borrow Little Qi tomorrow?

Oh, right, there’s also Yaoyao from Li Ji’s family…

Suddenly, Shen Cheng felt something was off.

His gaze shifted slightly, and finally, his eyes met a pair of glowing amber eyes at the edge of his bed.

When Shen Cheng saw those eyes, his heart tightened for a moment and then relaxed. He smiled wryly at Xinxin, who was staring at him from the bedside, and said, “Xinxin, why aren’t you asleep yet? What are you doing?”

“Watching Shen Cheng… sleep…” Xinxin said expressionlessly.

“Watching me sleep?” Shen Cheng was slightly taken aback.

Xinxin replied calmly, “I’m afraid Shen Cheng… won’t wake up…”

Shen Cheng: “…”

Because it was Xinxin who said this, Shen Cheng couldn’t tell whether Xinxin was cursing him or worrying about him.

Raising his still sore arm, Shen Cheng rubbed Xinxin’s head and sighed, “I’m just resting for a while. You go to sleep first, okay?”

“Mm.” Xinxin nodded, then carefully crawled onto the bed and burrowed into Shen Cheng’s blanket right in front of him.

Shen Cheng: “…”

In the few seconds when Shen Cheng’s mouth twitched in speechless silence, he realized that Xinxin’s breathing had already become steady. Xinxin had clearly fallen asleep.

This little guy… falls asleep in a second, huh?

Looking at Xinxin, who was peacefully sleeping in the blanket, Shen Cheng rubbed his chin and thought for a moment, raising his eyebrows slightly.

Seems like… there’s something to hug while sleeping now?

After thinking for a moment, Shen Cheng lay down again but quickly opened his eyes.

— He couldn’t fall asleep at all!

Feeling wide awake, Shen Cheng sat up in bed, looking around, trying to find something to do.

But it was 3 a.m., what could he do?

He should’ve known not to sleep so early…

Just as Shen Cheng was feeling a little troubled, his phone suddenly vibrated slightly.

Shen Cheng was a bit surprised, picked up the phone, and saw that it was a message from Yu Lan.

Lazily: Are you there?
