Chapter 972 They're really out of options.
After a busy day, the three girls finally finished decorating the house.
Funina: "I can't take it anymore, I need to go back and take a bath and go to sleep."
She didn't sleep at all last night, and she's been busy next door for so long today. She needs to go back and catch up on her sleep now.
Paimon was also very tired; she was the one who hung everything up high.
Count Dodo has already sent the key, hoping that Sora will know to go home when she sees it.
She's worked so hard for so long, if he still doesn't come home... she'll...
She had no other choice, alas.
When Paimeng came out after washing up, she found that Su had moved the sofa to the spot directly opposite the main entrance.
Su sat on the door with his arms crossed, his eyes fixed on it with a fierce, menacing gaze.
Paimon: "Su, aren't you going back to your bedroom to sleep?"
Sue: "I'll sleep on the sofa in the living room tonight."
Once Kong gets home, grab him immediately!
——*——*——
In the early hours of the morning, Kong was stunned when he opened the door.
The girl, wrapped in a fishtail blanket, lay on her side on the sofa facing the door, her disheveled bangs revealing her slightly furrowed brows.
Kong gently closed the door and sat on the edge of the sofa.
Sensing the familiar presence, the sleeping girl, like a small animal instinctively seeking warmth, hugged Kong's hands tightly in her arms.
Suddenly losing his balance, the empty body tilted to the side. If the other hand hadn't caught the girl's face in time, it probably would have woken her up.
He hovered above the sleeping girl, and even in the dim light, he could still clearly see her jade-like face.
Her black eyelashes, like the folded wings of a butterfly, rose and fell gently with her long, drawn-out breaths—Su was still asleep.
She must be very tired lately.
On one hand, he felt confused and anxious because of his own avoidance, and on the other hand, he had to accompany Funina with a positive attitude.
Funina...
He knew that Funina and Sue had an accidental kiss.
But even knowing this, after witnessing that scene, he still...
I could only recall the pictures in those newspapers, and the feelings I had at that moment.
Something was stripped away from my heart, and then replaced with aching and stinging.
He knew it was an accident, and he knew he shouldn't dwell on it, but...
He lowered his eyes, his eyelashes casting a shadow in his golden pupils.
The girl clinging to his arm was fast asleep, completely unaware of what was happening.
The girl looked both obedient and serene as she slept; her slightly furrowed brows had relaxed, and her small, full lips seemed to hold a satisfied smile.
Kong lowered his head, approaching the girl's face, and their foreheads touched as their breaths mingled.
He really didn't know what to do.
"call--"
Kong suddenly stood up and looked at Paimon, who was patting his chest.
null:……
Paimon: ...
Kong awkwardly asked, "Paimon, you...aren't you asleep yet?"
Paimon also felt extremely embarrassed, "I came out to get a drink of water."
She sensed movement in the living room and went to check, only to find Su, who was supposed to be lying in wait, fast asleep, while Kong...
As she lowered her head, she was torn between two conflicting thoughts. She didn't know whether to turn around and go back to her room or to wake Su up immediately.
She has always supported Su and Kong, but, but, but, but, it's not okay to steal a kiss from Su while he's asleep!
Thankfully, Sora is still the same gentle and polite Sora.
After an awkward exchange, Sora and Paimon fell silent again.
Paimon had so many questions he wanted to ask, but he didn't know how to bring them up.
Su, who was lying on the sofa, mumbled something and turned over. Kong took the opportunity to pull his hand back and stuff a cushion into her arms.
Paimon found a topic, "Su likes to hug something when she sleeps."
Wake up! Wake up! The target is right next to you, arrest him immediately!
Kong made a "shh" gesture, "Su is very tired, let's not wake her up."
Kong and Paimon went to the kitchen.
Paimon has given up; she knows Sue's sleeping habits.
Once she's sound asleep, even thunder and fireworks can't easily wake her.
Once you're woken up, be prepared for a super difficult morning grumpiness to calm you down!
Su was already irritable, and if she added morning grumpiness to that...
Oh dear, she still wants to continue traveling with Kong!
Paimon made conversation, "Su hasn't been getting much rest lately."
Kong gave a soft "hmm".
When they first met, Su often stayed up for days and nights without sleeping.
When I sleep, I curl up tightly and bury myself deep inside my sleeping bag.
He knew this was a manifestation of sleep disorder and extreme insecurity.
He and Paimon tried many methods and finally discovered that having someone sleep with Sue could greatly improve her situation.
Worried that Paimon, who was sleeping with her, would be strangled, Sue's sleeping movements became more and more relaxed.
Now, Su's uncomfortable sleeping posture has completely disappeared.
The way she relaxed and slept, wrapped in a fishtail blanket, looked like a mermaid princess in a fairy tale.
Her situation and life are getting better and better, and she... needs him less and less.
Sensing something amiss, Paimon suddenly exclaimed, "That...that! Sue said herself that she likes Sora!"
Last night, Fu Ningna and Maomao Su were so noisy that she was woken up, but she didn't join their late-night chat.
Although she shouldn't be the one to say this, she was really afraid that Kong would abandon her and Su if she didn't!
"I know she likes me."
Upon hearing the good news broadcast by Paimon, Kong wasn't as happy as Paimon had expected; his smile was tinged with bitterness.
"But she also likes Xiao, Shenhe, Liuyun Zhenjun... and many, many others."
She has more and more people who like her, and more and more people like her.
He was able to cherish her, respect her, and guide her existence; she was no longer the only one for him.
Moreover, they might be able to do it even better than him.
“But they’re not empty words! You’re extremely important to Sue!”
Paimon wore an indescribable expression. "Why is Sora so... so self-deprecating? If you had confessed, Su would definitely have accepted!"
Is it self-deprecation...?
Kong looked at her own hand, the hand that made Su happy when she held it, a hand that Su had once firmly pulled away from.
He wasn't saying that Su was wrong in choosing to protect Funina, but his former confidence was inevitably shaken by it.
and……
"It's precisely because I know that Su will accept my confession that I can't easily say those words out loud."
He was Su's guide; he couldn't rely on his experience to seduce a young girl who was still in her naivety. Besides…
"Her journey has only just begun, and there are still many sights to see. How could she so hastily choose her first stop as her lifelong home?"
Paimon: "Because Sue is so lucky! The 'First Stop' is perfect to become the 'Home'!"
"Besides, Su isn't a bird with an imprinting effect; she won't just become friends with whoever she meets at first!"
"Have you forgotten Abedo's miniature garden? Abedo created so many opportunities for the puppet Abedo and eliminated so many obstacles, yet it still took decades to successfully bring the puppet Abedo and the puppet Su together."
The lover that others have to go through countless hardships to win over, you can have just confess your love and you'll have them.
Compared to Aberdo's treatment, Kong's troubles sound incredibly annoying!
null:………………
I felt really sorry for Abedo, but he... was genuinely comforted.
The room fell silent.
Paimon asked Sora with a look that seemed to ask, "What are you still hesitating about?"
After a long silence, he sighed, "Even if the 'first stop' that Su encountered was very suitable to become a 'home,' it is not enough to just be 'suitable.'"
He will not be satisfied with being "suitable".
He hoped that after exploring the sights, Sue would understand what she wanted and then make a firm choice.
"If Sue and I get together, and one day she tells me that she has found her true love..."
Empty face lost all expression, and his voice became eerily calm.
"I'll lose control."
