Chapter 277: The Sect Leader Wakes Up Grumpy Every Day (25)

Shen Mubai completely forgot about another side of Jun Jiuling, to the point where when she was woken up in the middle of the night, she was completely out of it.

Impatiently waving away the hand, Shen Mubai muttered, “Stop it; let me sleep a bit longer.”

“Bai,Bai.”

A soft and aggrieved voice sounded in her ears, and her arm was continuously shaken.

Shen Mubai turned over, feeling that the mosquitoes tonight were really noisy.

The young girl fell asleep again in no time, still emitting shallow breaths.

Jun Jiuling, feeling neglected, pursed his lips and showed a distressed expression on his face.

He propped his chin and looked at the sleeping girl for a while, not knowing what he was thinking. Then a big smile appeared on his face.

Immediately after, he pinched her nose with one hand.

In her deep sleep, Shen Mubai felt her breathing becoming increasingly difficult and her beautiful dream turning into a nightmare, until she abruptly opened her eyes.

Seeing her awake, Jun Jiuling released her nose, revealing an innocent smile, his eyes sparkling. “Bai.”

Shen Mubai, seeing the face in front of her, reflexively got scared, but then realized it was Jun Jiuling in the middle of the night, finally relaxing.

Jun Jiuling, however, tilted his head in confusion, asking, “Bai, are you scared of me?”

Shen Mubai thought, “During the day, you wanted to kill me, and now I’m supposed to not be scared?”

But she said, “Who told you to appear in my room like a ghost in the middle of the night?”

Jun Jiuling, feeling wronged, said, “I look so handsome; how can I resemble a ghost?”

Shen Mubai, “…”

She didn’t expect Jun Jiuling to be so self-loving, although he wasn’t wrong.

Jun Jiuling pulled her and said, “Bai, I’m hungry.”

Shen Mubai found Jun Jiuling’s behavior strange. Not only were his personalities drastically different during the day and in the middle of the night, but he didn’t like to eat during the day and yet searched for food everywhere at night.

Looking at Jun Jiuling’s sparkling eyes fixed on her, Shen Mubai tentatively asked, “Did you used to search for food like this in the middle of the night before?”

Jun Jiuling shook his head, very obediently saying, “No.”

Shen Mubai showed a puzzled expression.

Perhaps noticing her confusion, Jun Jiuling said in a small, aggrieved voice, “Their cooking was too terrible.”

…That’s true.

Shen Mubai suddenly had a speculation.

Jun Jiuling’s condition couldn’t be unknown to others, especially to himself. However, the Jun Jiuling in the middle of the night was clueless; he never even questioned why he didn’t appear during the day, but subconsciously knew many things.

Thinking like this, Shen Mubai rubbed her chin. Maybe this was a good opportunity. She could establish a good relationship with the Jun Jiuling in the middle of the night.

So she wasn’t sleepy anymore and said to the person in front of her, who was staring at her, “Come on, let’s go to the kitchen.”

After a day of fussing, Shen Mubai was a bit hungry from being woken up. So, she roasted a chicken, giving Jun Jiuling a chicken leg and keeping one for herself.

The two sat on the doorstep of the kitchen, gnawing on chicken legs.

Jun Jiuling ate happily, showing a contented expression, his eyes sparkling as he looked at Shen Mubai as if she were a treasure.

“Bai, you’re amazing.”

Shen Mubai blushed a bit from his praise and said shyly, “There’s nothing amazing about it.”

Jun Jiuling said seriously, “The food you make is the most delicious in the world.”

Shen Mubai thought, “That’s because your cooking skills are nothing to brag about.”

Jun Jiuling’s eyelashes fluttered, and then he shyly said, like a little bride, “Whoever marries you as his wife will be very happy.”

Shen Mubai, choking on the chicken leg, was speechless.
