I rejected your confession, but you took my best friend home?

Chapter 70: The chapter where she confessed her feelings herself? Will Zhou Heng agree?

"The lights are off."

"Ah."

The two lay in bed, Zhou Heng closed his eyes, already starting to drift off to sleep.

Yin Mengran, on the other hand, couldn't sleep and could barely close her eyes, because she was still processing all the things that had happened that day.

She went through the whole process in her mind, finally stopping at Zhou Heng saying that they were going to move to a different place.

"These kinds of times are probably decreasing day by day..."

Yin Mengran stared at the ceiling, thinking to herself,

Although they slept in the same bed every night, they used different blankets and pillows, and there was a partition between them. Apart from occasionally chatting after turning off the lights, they didn't interact at all in bed.

At that moment, Yin Mengran suddenly remembered that the only day that was different was the day Zhou Heng was particularly tired and sleepy.

He rolled over in his sleep and accidentally draped his arm over himself; if he were any closer, he would have been hugging himself while sleeping.

The next day, Zhou Heng apologized to him and explained the situation.

Since they'll be sleeping separately anyway, then...

A very dangerous thought surfaced in Yin Mengran's mind...

Since Zhou Heng could accidentally roll over next to her while sleeping...

Then... can't I do it myself?

Zhou Heng did it by accident, but I can pretend it was accidental, which means... I can pretend to be asleep!

Anyway, the next day I just pretended I didn't know anything, that I was completely unaware, and I didn't need to feel embarrassed!

Yin Mengran pursed her lips, her heart pounding. She felt incredibly excited; she was about to do something she had never even considered before...

She wasn't in a hurry to move, because if she were to pretend to be asleep, she would need to do it for at least half an hour before moving.

Otherwise, they'll definitely suspect something; who starts to tossing and turning so quickly after falling asleep...

So, with this thought in mind, she endured it for over half an hour.

It was already late at night, and it was pitch black outside; there was no light at all.

Yin Mengran felt she could start taking action now, so she shifted her body slightly, as if testing the waters.

The partition in the middle is easily crossed by simply turning over.

However, if they crossed that line, they would truly be on Zhou Heng's territory, so close that they could practically touch him.

Therefore, you must be careful to maintain a proper balance and make yourself appear as if you are acting completely unconsciously, so that no clues are discovered.

First, Yin Mengran moved her blanket to the side, otherwise she would get rolled into it when she turned over.

Then, she turned to face Zhou Heng, but the bedroom was so dark that she had no idea whether he was asleep or not.

It's best if he's just fallen asleep; even if you accidentally wake him, he won't realize you did it on purpose.

If he's not asleep, then I need to act naturally, otherwise it'll be easy for him to see through that I'm pretending to be asleep.

After a moment, Yin Mengran felt it was time to move on to the next step.

She rolled over, trying to stop herself on the middle of the blanket so she could put her arm around Zhou Heng!

However, she underestimated the momentum, and as she rolled over, she realized that she seemed unable to stop!

The next second, she flipped herself over to the other side, which was where Zhou Heng was sleeping!

Yin Mengran was startled, broke out in a cold sweat, and her heart raced, fearing that her sudden movement would arouse Zhou Heng's suspicion!

But she remained motionless for over ten seconds, and Zhou Heng didn't make a sound.

Yin Mengran could feel her leg touching Zhou Heng's body; the distance between them was now so small that a fist could not fit between them!

Yin Mengran opened her eyes a little and peeked out. She noticed that Zhou Heng seemed to be sleeping with his back to her, facing that direction.

When she turned over, Zhou Heng didn't move, which meant he must be asleep...

Yin Mengran breathed a sigh of relief, and her heartbeat gradually calmed down.

At this moment, Yin Mengran suddenly remembered that last time she also thought Zhou Heng was asleep the whole time, but he seemed to have woken up at the end. If he hadn't said anything, she really wouldn't have known.

So this time, Yin Mengran was also a little worried that Zhou Heng might not be asleep and was pretending to be asleep.

She used her hands to move the blanket behind her back a bit, so she could pull herself back a little and not press herself against Zhou Heng.

She maintained a distance between them, positioned slightly to the side—not too close, but close enough to touch.

Then, Yin Mengran began to think about her next move. She was currently facing Zhou Heng, while Zhou Heng had his back to her.

So what should I do next? Should I reach out and put my hand on Zhou Heng? Or should I play it safe and just place my hand on his?

Just as Yin Mengran was thinking, Zhou Heng in front of her suddenly made a move!

Yin Mengran quickly closed her eyes, pretended to be asleep, and acted as if she knew nothing!

The next second, Zhou Heng's body rolled over, and the space she made gave Zhou Heng just enough room to roll over!

"!!"

Yin Mengran trembled. Her eyes were closed, so she couldn't see what was happening, but her body could feel...

Her head was pressed against... Zhou Heng's chest...

The arm draped over him was Zhou Heng's!

Right now, I'm truly being held in Zhou Heng's arms!

"what's the situation..."

Yin Mengran dared not open her eyes or move. She hadn't made a move yet; she hadn't figured out how to put her hand on Zhou Heng.

Now, instead, Zhou Heng is holding her in his arms?

Is Zhou Heng asleep or awake right now?

Yin Mengran could feel Zhou Heng's even breathing and his heartbeat.

She listened for a while, and Zhou Heng's heart rate did not change. Logically speaking, if Zhou Heng were awake, his heart rate should have changed at this time, right?

In other words, Zhou Heng is still asleep and hasn't woken up yet?

"Then is it...?"

After a moment, Yin Mengran slowly raised her hand, pausing in mid-air for a few seconds.

Finally, it slowly landed on Zhou Heng's waist.

The two seemed to embrace at that moment, and Yin Mengran felt an unparalleled tranquility.

At that moment, a thought popped into her head: she felt that only after Zhou Heng fell asleep could she truly understand this feeling, which was rather sad.

When will they be able to embrace like this again, when Zhou Heng is lucid...?

That requires them to be together...

I definitely like Zhou Heng; I don't need to think about it anymore.

But she just didn't know if Zhou Heng would like her...

If I confess my feelings to him, will Zhou Heng agree?

But no matter what, we can't let Zhou Heng's studies be delayed right now...

Yin Mengran closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep in Zhou Heng's arms.

However, after Yin Mengran fell asleep,

In the darkness, Zhou Heng slowly opened his eyes...
