âAre you afraid to compete with me?â Jing Yang said proudly, âIâm very good at playing Red Light, Green Light.â
âGoading me?â Youyou arched a brow. âIâm not falling for that.â
âIf you donât accept the game, it means youâre automatically giving up.â Jing Yang pretended to reach for the orange. âIt means this orange belongs to me.â
âHold on!â Little Yichen became anxious. âItâs just a game of Red Light, Green Light. Letâs compete. Whoâs afraid?â
!!
âSure.â Jing Yang sat up straight and said, âCome on, who wants to compete with me first?â
âIâll go first then.â Little Yichenâs desire to win was aroused, and he sat down on the bed as well.
âThree, three, four, four. Weâre all frozen. No talking, no moving.â
As soon as he finished speaking, the two boys looked at each other without moving. It was as if they were petrified as they looked at each other.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Little Yichen was known for being an impatient person. Even though he could keep his composure at first, after a minute, his eyes suddenly stung and he only dared to blink gently.
Youyouâs lips twitched when he saw the two of them taking such a boring game so seriously.
It wasnât like a game at all. Moreover, he really didnât move at all.
This game was very simple initially. They just had to stay very still. However, after a while, they got sore in the neck and shoulders and then began to feel fidgety or itchy. Especially when the wind got in through the windows. Even though they were wearing thin clothes, it did not feel too cold. However, Little Yichen could clearly feel the wind blowing into his eyes. It was itchy and astringent, and he started tearing. He wanted to rub them, but that would mean moving first and losing the game.
Hence, he deliberately widened his eyes until the blood vessels popped out. He gritted his teeth and refused to give up.
On the other hand, Jing Yang was very familiar with the game of Red Light, Green LIght. He was born with cornea deficiency. This meant that he had been immersed in darkness for a long time when he was an infant.
Babies are curious too. Being trapped in the darkness all the time would also make them curious about the outside world.
But the long period of darkness caused him to keep his eyes open for a long time. Even if he did not blink, he would not feel any discomfort.
Jing Yang had never lost to anyone in this game. Of course, that was the same for Little Yichen.
10 minutes later, Little Yichen finally could not take it anymore and blinked his eyes slightly. He wanted to pretend that he didnât, so that he could just muddle through, alas Jing Yang caught him.
âI saw it. You blinked.â
Little Yichen rubbed his eyes in embarrassment. This guyâs eyes were sharp. He had blinked very quickly but got caught nevertheless.
âSo boring!â
Although Little Yichen was indignant, he had to admit defeat.
He and Jing Yang had been glaring at each other for such a long time just then, that his eyes were extremely bloodshot.
âYouyou, why donât you compete against him.â Little Yichen said in frustration, âIf I had persisted for a bit longer, I wouldnât have lost. Uh huh. We canât let him off easily.â
Upon hearing this, Youyou sat on the bed disdainfully.
âIâll compete against you!â
Jing Yang smiled.
It didnât matter who competed against him.
From the time he was born, he didnât blink very much because he was blind. He would stare into space endlessly.
