“Yu—Yu Ning, you’re not yet asleep ……”
Ji Mingxia’s body had crashed into Yu Ning’s arms, and he consciously used his hands to support his body. However, his waist could not bear such movements in his current position so not only did he fail in getting up, his entire body was also supported by Yu Ning.
In the dimness, Ji Mingxia could not see Yu Ning’s face, and could only see its outline through the vague light from outside.
Yu Ning’s hand was still on Ji Mingxia’s waist, and on seeing that Ji Mingxia’s body was abnormally soft, he slid it down along Ji Mingxia’s spine and gently pressed there.
Ji Mingxia was wearing thin short-sleeved pajamas, and when he fell, the hem of his shirt lifted upward. Therefore, when Yu Ning’s hand slid down, it soon touched the skin at his waist.
Ji Mingxia had just finished bathing and his body still carried moisture and heat, while Yu Ning’s fingers were cold, just like his persona.
The cold fingertips touched the warm skin, and Ji Mingxia’s body immediately tensed up.
He stretched out his hand, trying to stop Yu Ning’s movement.
However, Yu Ning was one step ahead of Ji Mingxia.
It was autumn in September, so although the daytime was still as hot as the summer, the night had a hint of coolness.
Lying in bed is fine, but the stairway was not suitable for a long stay.
Ji Mingxia’s entire body was too soft to make any effort so Yu Ning simply held him by the waist with one hand, while the other hand picked Ji Mingxia and half-carried him to the bed.
Ji Mingxia’s body suddenly went into the air and he reflexively wrapped his hands around Yu Ning’s neck.
The bed was only four steps from the stairs and Yu Ning quickly put Ji Mingxia on the soft bed.
Yu Ning’s hand held Ji Mingxia’s waist from the beginning to the end, supporting the bones and muscles with his palm to prevent Ji Mingxia from straining his waist.
Ji Mingxia was dazed from the moment Yu Ning picked him up. It wasn’t until he felt Yu Ning’s hand still on his waist after lying on the bed that he hurriedly tried to struggle up.
“Don’t move.” Yu Ning whispered into Ji Mingxia’s ear.
His hand gently pressed along the muscles on both sides of the waist, and when he pressed the area of the sprain, Ji Mingxia felt a sudden indescribable pain. Ji Mingxia was caught off guard and he let out a small groan.
He was startled and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hand, he even stopped his breathing.
Yu Ning’s hand also paused at the affected area and did not go further down.
The dormitory was very quiet, only Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan’s snores could occasionally be heard.
Ji Mingxia confirmed that Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan had not heard him and was slightly relieved, but the thought that Yu Ning had heard it made his whole body explode.
The warm body that was already dry had a thin layer of sweat because of embarrassment.
This heat passed through the skin and into Yu Ning’s hands.
Yu Ning’s hand had stopped at the location where he was injured, and he was lying with his back to him, so he couldn’t see Yu Ning’s expression and did even know what he was thinking at the moment.
Just when Ji Mingxia couldn’t resist the urge to turn his head, he heard Yu Ning whisper, “Your waist is sprained.”
Ji Mingxia shrank his body with difficulty: “It’s…… not serious ……”
“You weren’t injured when we met in the dormitory this afternoon.” Yu Ning said.
Ji Mingxia did not expect Yu Ning could to discover this detail.
He had already thought about how to tell Yu Ning about today’s events, and on hearing Yu Ning ask about it, he tried to turn around to face Yu Ning as he said, “Yu Ning, Ye Chen and I actually ……”
“I’ll massage it for you, otherwise you will be sore all night and you won’t be able to straighten your back tomorrow.” Yu Ning stpped Ji Mingxia from turning around and interrupted him the moment he heard Ye Chen being mentioned.
Ji Mingxia thought of the sore pain after Yu Ning pressed his waist and his soul almost flew away.
At this moment, he could care less about explaining what happened, and he hurriedly grabbed Yu Ning’s hand to stop him. “No, no need, I’m fine…”
Although Ji Mingxia deliberately lowered his voice to conceal his emotions, he still could not hide the tremble in it.
Yu Ning felt that Ji Mingxia’s hands were wet and hot with thin sweat. He looked at Ji Mingxia for a moment, and a helpless look eventually appeared on his face as he reassured him, “I will be lighter.”
Ji Mingxia was nervous and he didn’t let go if Yu Ning’s hand: “What if Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan hear the sound, and get up to see us…”
As Ji Mingxia talked, he didn’t realize what was wrong in this sentence.
He had hurt his back, Yu Ning was sitting on his bed to help him massage it. It was not something shameful.
If it were Zhao Zhuoye, Ji Mingxia would have been grinning broadly and not caring at all. Even if he was discovered, he might have deliberately hugged Zhao Zhuoye and joked about it.
But when it was Yu Ning, Ji Mingxia felt nervous and his mind was full of all kinds of intimate images.
Strangely enough, Yu Ning did not refute him either.
Yu Ning paused for a moment, and just when Ji Mingxia thought he would give up, he heard Yu Ning say, “You lie in further.”
Ji Mingxia was puzzled, but he had great trust in Yu Ning, so he did as he was told.
He kept his back to Yu Ning, and wriggled to the the edge of the bed like a worm.
The next moment, Yu Ning lifted the quilt and burrowed in with his body close to Ji Mingxia’s back.
Ji Mingxia’s body instantly tensed up, and he hurriedly turned his head to look behind him.
As a result, he saw Yu Ning lying on his side behind him, with his face upclose.
Ji Mingxia was shocked and his face instantly became red. He hurriedly turned his head away, not daring to look at Yu Ning again.
Although the conditions of the university male dormitory was good, the space was limited and each bed was only one meter wide.
At the moment, Ji Mingxia was lying on the outside of the bed while Yu Ning was in the inner part. Although they were lying on their sides and had a quilt separating them, the space was limited and the bed felt crowded.
Especially to Ji Mingxia. Infront of him was the bed’s guardrail, while behind him was Yu Ning.
The muscles of his body were tense, and his rapid breaths fell on the edge of the bed.
Feeling that his heart was beating a little too wildly, Ji Mingxia wanted to change his position to cover it up. However, when he moved back, his back touched Yu Ning’s chest.
Ji Mingxia was so frightened that he hastily shrank back. Not only did he not dare touch Yu Ning with his back, he even moved his legs away for fear that Yu Ning would discover his abnormality.
At this moment, Yu Ning’s hand came in from under the quilt and pressed on Ji Mingxia’s waist.
Ji Mingxia’s whole body trembled, and just when he wanted to refuse, he heard Yu Ning say, “Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan won’t find me unless they come up and stare at your bed.”
Ji Mingxia froze for a moment. He thought for a moment before understanding what Yu Ning meant.
His bed was located opposite Luo Zixuan and Lin Cheng’s beds, the four beds were of the same height, and at this moment, he was lying on the outside and separated from Yu Ning by the quilt.
The light was dim and at first glance, the bed looked like it only had one person. Unless Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan suddenly went crazy at night and got up from their beds to search the whole dormitory, they would never notice the extra person in his bed.
Although he confirmed that it was safe, this position……
Ji Mingxia’s heart was tangled, but under Yu Ning’s massage, he gradually lost the heart to dwell on it.
Unlike that initial sudden soreness and dull pain, Yu Ning had confirmed the area of Ji Mingxia’s sprain and he now gently put his hand over it and massaged it.
Although Ji Mingxia’s waist injury was not serious, he had twisted a ligament after all. He had silently endured the pain when getting on and off Ye Chen’s car so that people wouldn’t see his pain.
After returning to the dormitory, he didn’t have to worry about his waist, but unfortunately, he forgot about the sprain when walking up the steps and it brought back the pain.
The place that was already injured had been aggravated and he had not massaged it with ice. Yu Ning was right, if not properly handled tonight, it would have become more serious a night’s rest.
And at this moment Yu Ning massaged in a targeted manner, which immediately soothed the pain.
The ice-cold fingers pressed against the affected area, and a sore and numb feeling swept through Ji Mingxia’s whole body.
He wanted to groan several times, but when he thought of the other people in the dormitory, he gritted his teeth and held back, leaving only the sound of suppressed breathing, along with his trembling body ……
The next day, Ji Mingxia was awakened by chatter in the dorm room.
The blinding light shone on his eyes, and he used a hand to cover the eyes. He was dazed and he called out in a whisper: “Yu Ning ……”
The chatter and movements in the dormitory stopped.
As if startled by Ji Mingxia’s voice, the people stopped moving all of a sudden.
Ji Mingxia blinked and vaguely felt that something was not right.
In the next moment, Ji Mingxia suddenly came back to his senses. He immediately sobered up and abruptly sat up from the bed.
It was already bright, and the early morning sun shone into the dormitory. At this moment, Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan were standing by their beds to change clothes.
Seeing Ji Mingxia get up abruptly, both were startled and an embarrassed look appeared on their faces.
Ji Mingxia stared at them blankly, and his breathing stopped.
He never imagined that Yu Ning’s massage would make him so comfortable that he’d fall asleep!
Even if he fell asleep, he still slept so heavily that he didn’t notice Lin Cheng and Luo Zixuan had already woken up!
Ji Mingxia looked like he’d been struck by lightning and Luo Zixuan couldn’t help but break the silence. He spoke up with a dry smile, “Mingxia, you’re awake.”
“Yes ……” Ji Mingxia’s entire body froze, still unable to come back from his social death.
He trembled as he turned turned around and looked to his side, ready to explain to Luo Zixuan and Lin Cheng.
Unexpectedly, his side was empty and he was the only one in the bed!
Ji Mingxia was taken aback for a moment. He looked at Yu Ning’s bed, and found that the quilt was neatly folded, and there was no trace of Yu Ning in the entire dormitory.
Luo Zixuan saw Ji Mingxia staring at Yu Ning’s bed, and he said, “Yu Ning was no longer in the dormitory by the time me and Lin Cheng woke up, he probably went out.”
Ji Mingxia breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and then he felt that he had returned to earth.
“Did you sleep well last night?” Lin Cheng asked casually after putting on his clothes.
At this time, the door of the dormitory was opened and Yu Ning, who had disappeared early in the morning, returned to the dormitory carrying breakfast for two.
As soon as Ji Mingxia saw Yu Ning, his face got a little hot. He hurriedly averted his gaze and whispered, “I did.”
