Vol 2, Chapter 71: Late night, Abrupt awakening
TL: flarewk
After leaving that bizarre antique shop, we didnât window shop anymore, and simply headed home.
Dinner was consumed at home, and since the time was already 6pm plus, I made a comparatively hassle-free dish, curry. And of course, the secondary layer of reason was that Xin Ran loved to eat curry, and itâs considered to be a reward for her as well.
âThatâs great, gege, youâve finally chosen a present.â
âMm mm, and itâs all due to you too, Xin Ran. If itâs not for your help, I also wonât be able to find such a shop like that.â
âKe Ling thinks that the sensation that shop gives isnât that pleasantâ¦â¦â¦â
âWell, itâs indeed a little strange, but Iâm guessing we wonât be having any more opportunities to be returning there in the future already.â
After browsing for an entire day today, I too felt rather fatigued, and wanted to go sleep when itâs not even 9pm yet.
Afterwards, when I greeted my two meimeis, the both of them gave me an extremely surprising response in return.
âGege, are you going to sleep already? Goodnight, have sweet dreams~â
âGoodnight.â
âEh? You two arenât going to sleep together with me today?â
I originally thought that my meimeis who had already made themselves completely clear to me would definitely be sticking onto me every single day, wanting to sleep together with me, but I didnât expect that itâs just the opposite to what Iâve imagined.
Of course, thatâs a good thing to me, but Xin Ran had provided quite a bit of assistance today, not only giving me a massage, but also aided withholding back Ke Ling as well, plus even more so helped me on successfully purchasing a gift to boot.
No matter how it was being put, it would be required of me to give a bit of praises and incentives to compensate Xin Ran.
If Iâm to hug her to sleep, sheâll probably be quite delighted, and itâs due to that sort of thinking which was why it turned out to be my side here proactively mentioning about it. Itâs definitely not due to any of my personal agenda! Absolutely not!
âToday, Ke Ling wants to sleep together with Xin Ran-jie, so youâll be sleeping alone, gege! Heehee~â
Ke Ling made a face towards me, while pulling onto Xin Ranâs arms while pleasedly chuckling.
âMmâ¦â¦â¦.â
Though Xin Ran unveiled out an expression of slight reluctance, she still nodded her head nonetheless.
Reallyâ¦â¦â¦I donât even know what to say already, at this sort of time I could only laugh out bitterly.
Sigh, you two suddenly becoming like that, I being your elder brother would feel lonelyâ¦â¦â¦.
Eeeh, I by right should be feeling happyâ¦â¦â¦
Tch, Iâm having mixed feelingsâ¦â¦â¦
It must be because Iâm too tired, which even caused my brain to be not that right already. Iâd better hurry up and go sleep then.
Since my two meimeis decided to lovingly sleep together, I too shall not intervene into the good relationship between them sisters then.
After Iâve directly returned back to my room and changed into my pajamas, I then prepared to head to sleep.
Mmâ¦â¦â¦locking up the roomâs doors and closing up the windows afterwards, I still switched off the lights after thinking for awhile.
Itâs just me alone sleeping tonight, so it should be fine having the lights off. Plus, Iâm able to have a more comfortable sleep with the lights out as well.
Lying on the bed, I instantly felt my aching back suddenly obtaining onto a support point, with my body becoming way more relieved as well.
Tomorrowâ¦â¦â¦.is Lian Bingâs birthday already.
I donât know what kind of a birthday party itâll be, but it should be that sort of standing banquet, I guessâ¦â¦â¦
Then, would it be better for me to put on a formal attireâ¦â¦â¦
This magatama, would she like it?
I feel like wanting to see her a littleâ¦â¦â¦
Aahh, really, when was it that Iâve become so hypocritical alreadyâ¦â¦â¦
Anyway, Iâm able to see her tomorrow, isnât it?
Iâll hand over this present to her then, afterwards saying it to her personally, that I like her.
Heh heh, I wonder what sort of expression she would be making afterwardsâ¦â¦â¦
Iâve started to become a little eager already.
Well then, Iâll quietly await the arrival of the 4th of April thenâ¦â¦â¦
â¦â¦â¦An Jun Cheng in the midst of sleepingâ¦â¦â¦.

*Whroom whrooom*ââ
*Whroom whrooom*ââ
While being soundly asleep, I distinctly heard onto vibration soundsâ¦â¦â¦though the sounds it made wasnât loud, it kept ringing nonstop insteadâ¦â¦â¦.
*Whroom whrooom*ââ*Whroom whrooom*ââ
So noisyâ¦â¦â¦
I shouldnât have any alarm being set at allâ¦â¦â¦
*Whroom whrooom*ââ
âArgh! Itâs annoying me to death already!â
With the outcome that I still couldnât endure against those incessant noises, sitting upright onto the bed.
My phone? Whereâs my phone?
Dazedly searching about for half a day, I then finally located my phone.
Out of habit, I slid the slider wanting to switch off my phone, with the result that Iâve discovered my phoneâs vibration wasnât due to its alarm.
Itâs those vibration sounds when one receives a text message.
Even the good temperamental me would be uncontrollably scratching my head while grumbling out.
âIsnât it only just 1 amâ¦â¦â¦who is it exactlyâ¦â¦â¦â
I merely felt my eyeballs about to pop out from their sockets already, them feeling unimaginably sourish, coupling up with the fact that today marks the third continuous night of me not having a proper sleep.
While having my mental state being drained out, my mood too became terrible to the limits.
Ahh, please, can I just have a good nightâs sleepâ¦â¦â¦.
I was out shopping for an entire day yesterday, you knowâ¦â¦â¦just let me have a proper rest, as after the Qing Ming holidays, I wouldnât have any more opportunities to be lazily sleeping already.
Reallyâ¦â¦â¦who was it that would be sending over those messages?
Xue Qing? Or was it Lian Bing?
Itâs only them both who would be sending me text messages already. And Xue Li-xiaojie as well, but she definitely wouldnât be disturbing me while Iâm sleeping.
Looking for me in the middle of the night, was there something urgent already?
Although my mood was a little displeased due to being forcibly woken up in the middle of the night, I still opened up my received messages to take a quick glance, for fear of missing out any important notifications.
With the result that itâs a strangerâsâ¦â¦â¦no wait, this number wasnât even able to be viewed at all!
What sort of advanced technology was being utilized already? It actually didnât even display out its phone number!
Plus, for all of the text messages, the contents were entirely the same, only a [You there?], those two words, along with a question mark.
Deleted!
The f***, who was it thatâs so lame!
If thereâs something then just say it out, whatâs up with the sending of so many âYou there?â ! Plus, since thereâs no reply back as well, doesnât that imply that Iâm not around too!
Speaking of which, one would know even by using common sense, that at this sort of timing right now, the other party would be sleeping, right! What exactly were they thinking! It canât be that the person who sent that text message was a person from overseas?
No, if thatâs the case then they wouldnât use chinese characters already!
âPhewâ¦â¦â¦â
After ferociously giving it a rebuttal within my mind, I directly blocked off that number, simply not wanting to reply to it at all! Yeah, a person who sent me text messages looking for me in the middle of late night, I simply didnât want to care about them at all!
After completing the settings, I placed the phone on the study table and turned my head around, wanting to go back to sleep once more.
With the result that Iâve just laid down when a *Whroom whrooom*ââ sound resounded again.
Aaaa, really, what the hellâ¦â¦â¦
Who was it this time? Iâve even blocked off that number, and going by that, I shouldnât have been receiving messages from the other party, right? Donât tell me that they had switched to another number already?
Iâve been annoyed till my brains was about to implode already, and I who was deeply helpless and infuriated could only pick up my phone once more.
As expected, itâs a brand new text message, and I was similarly unable to see its number too.
I gave off a yawn, and the instance that Iâve pressed onto this text message opening it up, my slightly awakened mind suddenly formed out a question.
How did the other party know that Iâve blocked off that phoneâs number already?
What closely followed next, was that the text message which Iâve opened provided me the answer.
2017-4-4 01:11
[I know that youâre around, I saw you waking up already.]
Instantaneously shocked awake!
I immediately flipped off from my bed, grabbed onto my phone and ran off to switch on the lights.
Thereâs no one else in the room.
The doors of my room was still locked, the windows were still tightly closed, the curtains too pulled downâ¦â¦â¦.
Have I seen onto a ghost already? !
*Whroom whrooom*ââ
Just like as if itâs confirming onto my inner thoughts, the next message was just so perfectly delivered right into my phone.
2017-4-4 01:12
[Iâm always looking at you, hmm?]
And at the same time, I really felt that thereâs a bout of gaze staring right at me!
The gaze this time wasnât fixed at any direction, just like as if itâs being directed down from all surroundings, hence Iâm completely unable to tell out where the other party was observing me from.
Uwa! Itâs so scary! Iâve expectedly met onto a ghost already!
Even if itâs me, I wasnât able to maintain my composure anymore, quickly opening up my phone and immediately replying.
Sent a [Who are you? Are you watching over me?]
*Whroom whrooom*ââ
An instant reply.
[Fufu, guesssss who I am~ (â´âï½â)]
Still contents that were making fun of me, along with a text emoji as well. If itâs the usual I would be thinking that itâs rather cute, but right now, I could only feel that itâs incomparably bizarre!
Sent a [Please donât joke around anymore! Youâre already disturbing onto my daily rest! If thereâs anything, please simply say it out, and donât send over text messages anymore.]
Afterwards, I gave the other party a call.
It was being hung up.
Looks like the other party seemingly wasnât planning onto revealing his or her voice.
[Please donât be angryyy (,,â¢Ì. â¢Ì,,) I know that Iâm wrong alreadyyyâ¦â¦â¦itâs just that Iâm too happy, so I just canât resist sending Jun Cheng a message for celebrationâ¦â¦â¦fufu, in the future, Iâll be able to see Jun Cheng anytime and any moment already~ Sooooo happy~ ε٩(à¹> â<)۶з ]
That person even actually acted in a adorably spoilt manner as well!!
Plus, the information contained within this text message really gave my back a chill. Being able to see me anytime and any momentâ¦â¦â¦whatâs the meaning of that!
This person was expectedly looking at me from somewhere, huh!
I who suddenly had my heart being engulfed with feelings of trepidation, started to search around all four corners of my room. Under my bed, inside the clothes cabinet, even the drawer itself was being combed throughâ¦â¦â¦.
Even though I knew that there couldnât possibly be someone around, but I still went around searching about.
But the outcome was that I who didnât locate onto anything became even more uneasy already.
Was itâ¦â¦â¦Lan Hua?
I donât know why, but I just felt that it would only be her who would be doing these kind of things.
Plus, itâs only Lan Huaâs gaze who would be bringing this sort of bone-chilling sensation to me already!
With this thought appearing, it became impossible for it to be extinguished afterwards, and I who had determined out that person to be Lan Hua within my mind immediately wrote a text message and sent it over.
2017-4-4 01:15
Sent a [Itâs you, right! Lan Hua! I know that it must be you!]
The response this time didnât appear that quickly anymore, which meant that the other party upon seeing my text message became hesitant already!
This made me convinced even more within my mind, that the person who disturbed onto me during the middle of the night sending me text messages, it must indefinitely be Lan Hua!
Right now, asking her once more on how she had obtained onto my number and so on would be a foolish act indeed.
Wasnât it clear just by thinking about it!
It must be that she seized the opportunity for when I was sleeping at the train, to secretly look through my phone!
Because there wasnât any important information right inside my phone, I didnât place a security lock onto it as well, which made it convenient for Lan Hua to peek into it.
Although I still wasnât clear what methods she was exactly using to be watching over me, but at the very least, I now know that the other party wasnât an incorporeal existence such as of ghosts and spirits anymore, and since the other party is a human, Iâm then able toâ¦â¦â¦.
I canât, itâs still so scaryâ¦â¦â¦.
Thatâs Lan Hua ultimatelyâ¦â¦â¦.I completely donât have a solution to deal with her.
Plus, I had already completely rejected herâ¦â¦â¦.
My intentions was already put across very clearly. Going by that, when one said it out to be that harsh, anyone would by right be feeling disheartened, but Lan Huaâ¦â¦â¦.even if itâs like that, she still hadnât gave up, huhâ¦â¦â¦.that bout of tenacity was indeed deserving of praise, but to me, itâs rather troublesome insteadâ¦â¦â¦.
*Whroom whrooom*ââ
It came, huhâ¦â¦â¦
After roughly 5 minutes, Iâve finally received yet another text message. After giving out a long heave, I opened it up to take a look, and uncontrollably gasped my breath inwards.
2017-4-4 01:20
[Iâm so happyy, to actually be guessing onto my identity so quickly, as expected of Jun Cheng~ hereâs a praise~ (´・Ïï½¥)ï¾]
âEeeeeeeeeehhhhhâ¦â¦â¦.!â
It didnât have the â-tongxueâ being added behind anymore, and whatâs with this tone which seemed like she had very good relations with meâ¦â¦â¦
After rejecting her, our relationship became even closer instead? Wasnât that too bizarre already!
What exactly was she thinking of doing!
Help, I seemed to be harassed by a strange girl already!
