The Other Side 254

He went back to sleep in a daze. In his semi-consciousness he felt someone entering and leaving the room. Even though he wasn't fast asleep, he was so tired that he couldn't open his eyes. In his semi-conscious state, he felt someone gently put a thick blanket over him and then quietly retreat.0

By the time he woke up, the sun was shining brightly outside the window.

The actor sat up in bed, feeling something weighing down on him. When he looked down, he saw that there was indeed a blanket over him.

He tried to recall the earlier scene that had taken place in his semi-consciousness. He thought it was a dream and did not expect it to be real.

Well then… Who had placed this blanket over him?

The actor was suspicious but couldn't quite figure out what was going on. He lifted the blanket, got out of bed then shuffled to the door. He saw the servant, Auntie Gui, cleaning.

Seeing her made him think that she must have seen him sleeping here when she cleaned the room. Afraid that he'd catch a cold, she probably placed a blanket over him.

"Good morning, Auntie Gui." The actor smiled and greeted her.

Aunty Gui looked up and was slightly surprised to see him. "Eh? Young Master, why are you sleeping in this room?!" She realized too late that she had committed a huge taboo by cleaning around the doorway of the room in which he was sleeping.

As servants, they normally would not set foot within a few dozen meters of where their master was resting. They would only enter and clean the resting place after the master had woken up.

The actor was surprised. He had thought that Auntie Gui had placed the blanket over him. So it wasn't her?

Noticing that he looked stunned, Aunt Gui asked cautiously, "I didn't know that you were sleeping in this room… Did I wake you up?"

"Oh, no." The actor turned and looked around. "Did someone enter this room earlier on?" he asked tentatively.

Auntie Gui looked around and shook her head in confusion. "No, I didn't see. I only just came up."

"What the hell," Hua Jin muttered.

Auntie Gui did not hear him clearly. She looked at him with a puzzled expression, as if waiting for his instructions.

He smiled at her. "It's nothing. Go ahead."

"Oh! By the way, Young Master Gong and Young Miss are already downstairs."

"They're awake?"

"Yes, they woke up some time ago! Young Miss woke up early in the morning. She seemed especially excited today, for some reason. She said that you guys promised to take her kite-flying. I told her that she'd have to wait until the afternoon. She said that she couldn't sleep anymore, so she went to the backyard to play for a while. Then, seeing that you guys were still in bed, she went upstairs to wake Young Master Gong." Auntie Gui reported in detail.

The actor nodded. "Got it." With that, he grabbed the handle of the stairs and went downstairs.

Downstairs, he saw Natalia picking out a kite.

Some time ago, he'd bought many kites because the girl seemed to like them all and couldn't pick out her favorite. However she was also unwilling to let go of any one of them. Thinking that kites weren't expensive anyway, Hua Jin bought them all.

He ended up buying five kites, and now Gong JIe and Natalia were looking through them to make their selection.

"Why don't we use this one today?!"

Gong picked up a kite at random. There was a drawing of Baymax on it.

Natalia saw it and her eyes widened, but she pouted. "I want to use this one!"
