C154 Ling Yao's Sense of Crisis

I can't play with her hiding. Isn't that enough? Hai Xiaomin shrunk her neck and ran a short distance away with a limp. What she said just now was just a joke...

The sky had already darkened and there was no light. Everything could only be carried on tomorrow.

Hai Xiaomin sat on the beach and played with the splint on her ankle in boredom.

"What's wrong? Do you want to remove it?" Ling Yao walked over barefooted and squatted down in front of her.

Hai Xiaomin nodded her head. "The medicine has been soaked in water, and the bandages are not very ventilating. I'm afraid of rashes, so I should remove it."

"I'll do it." Seeing that she was clumsy and could not even remove the bandage for a long time, Ling Yao grabbed her foot.

This scene made Hai Xiaomin's heart soften.

She quietly watched the man carefully disassembling the splint for her. There was a faint fog in her eyes and she could not understand him. Or rather, she had never understood him.

Which side was the real him?

"Alright." After removing the bandages and splints, Ling Yao was about to take them away.

Hai Xiaomin quickly said, "Give me the bandage. It can be wrapped around my feet during the day."

It was a good idea. Otherwise, her ankle would be easily injured. Ling Yao gave her the things and did not notice the darkness when he gave them to her. A strange look flashed across Hai Xiaomin's eyes.

Late at night, on the beach, the two of them lied down with an arm's length between them.

Maybe it was because they had just landed on this isolated island and it was difficult for them to calm down, or maybe they had only eaten a few fruits a day and were so hungry that they could not sleep. Hai Xiaomin laid on the beach with her eyes wide open, staring at the starry sky in a daze.

Ling Yao turned sideways to face her and rested on his arm as he asked, "What are you thinking about?"

"Home, parents." Hai Xiaomin said calmly. There was an indescribable emotion in her eyes.

The news of her disappearance from the ship had probably reached the ears of her parents. They must be extremely regretful that they had agreed to let her go out to sea. If anything happened to them, the two elders would not know how painful it would be for the rest of their lives.

What worried her the most was that after the two elders had received the news, they had been too sad and their bodies had collapsed. Right now, she was safe and sound, but she could not guarantee their safety. Every minute and every second she stayed on the island was more torturous for her.

Ling Yao was silent. It was unknown what he had thought of, but his obsidian like eyes were bottomless.

There was no movement beside him. Hai Xiaomin felt a little strange and tilted her head to look at him. "What about you? Is there anyone in the family waiting for you to return safely?"

Wasn't he worried about them?

"The people who are waiting for me to return probably wish that I could disappear forever from this world." Ling Yao said in a low voice.

"How could that be?" Hai Xiaomin did not understand. Her beautiful eyes were round and shining in the darkness. "Where are your parents? They have such an outstanding son. They must be very precious. How could they bear to let anything happen to you?"

Thinking of the devil training that he had mentioned earlier, she paused. They were not cruel parents. They would not be able to bear watching their own son torture himself like this, right?

Hai Xiaomin suddenly felt some sympathy for Ling Yao. Every family had their own problems. She did not know what kind of family background he had that was difficult for ordinary people to understand.

Ling Yao reached out his hand and gently combed the hair on her face with his fingertips. "When you should know these things, I will tell you everything."

She did not mean any harm when she asked this question, but it touched the darkness in the depths of his heart and made his heart slightly heavy.

His background was a secret that couldn't be told for others?

Hai Xiaomin tactfully did not ask any more questions. Her face did not turn back and she closed her eyes, "Go to sleep."

After a while, she heard a sparse sound beside her ear. Before she could open her eyes, her abdomen was pressed down by a strong arm.

Hai Xiaomin opened her eyes in shock and turned her head. She almost bumped into someone's nose!

"Why did you sleep?"

Ling Yao said calmly. "I'm afraid you're afraid of the dark."

Are you sure you're not the one who's afraid of the dark?

The corner of Hai Xiaomin's eyes twitched. "When did I say that I am afraid of the dark?"

"Aren't all women afraid of the dark?" His answer was normal and sparse.

Hai Xiaomin narrowed her eyes full of malice. Was he looking down on all the women in the world?

Suddenly, she thought of the night when he sent her home. In the dark corridor, he had asked her similar questions and asked if she was a woman. Why was she not afraid of the darkness?

It wasn't that she wasn't afraid, it was just...

Taking advantage of the moment when she was in a daze, Ling Yao moved closer to her and whispered in her ear, "Women are creatures that are afraid of the darkness!"

His tone was firm. He was answering his previous question. When he exposed Hai Xiaomin's pretense of being strong, he also gave her a sense of security and warmth without her consent.

This man is really...

Hai Xiaomin secretly bit her lower lip. She was touched by Ling Yao's thoughtful actions.

After a while, she heard the sound of her teeth gnashing in the darkness. She could not bear it anymore. "Where do you put your hand?"

Ling Yao seemed to have fallen into a half-asleep state. His voice was a little muddled, but he sounded innocent and righteous. "Too thin. I feel my hands hurt wherever I put them. Only this place is soft and comfortable."

As he spoke, he even went for a mile and massaged twice.

"Ling Yao!" Hai Xiaomin screamed. He acted like a hooligan when drinking. Did he think he was pretending to sleep?

"Don't be noisy! It's not like I haven't touched it before..." The man, on the other hand, felt that she was too noisy. He did not know if it was during the time in Star Gazing Manor, he pressed down on her injured leg to prevent her from moving. The sequelae left behind, he habitually raised one leg to press down on Hai Xiaomin's lower body. He treated her like a pillow and held her in his arms.

Hai Xiaomin,... ""

She could not be angry, could not go mad. She would be killed first and then thrown to the ground. Hai Xiaomin kept taking deep breaths and performing self-hypnosis... and then she actually fell asleep without realizing it!

The next day, Hai Xiaomin was woken up by Ling Yao's movements when he got up.

"I woke you up?" Ling Yao bent over and placed one arm on top of Hai Xiaomin's head and asked with concern. His handsome face carried a dazed state that had just woken up, and his eyes seemed to be unable to open.

Hai Xiaomin opened her eyes wide. Her condition was actually better than his.

She actually slept so unprepared in his arms!

Hai Xiaomin propped herself up and sat up. Ling Yao gave her space to move aside. "You can sleep for a while more. The sun will only come back after a while. I will wake you up at that time."

"No need, I have slept enough!" Hai Xiaomin stretched lazily and inadvertently saw the blood in the man's eyes. "You did not sleep well?"

Ling Yao rubbed between his eyebrows. "In a completely unfamiliar environment, only you can sleep like a dead pig, right?"

In order to make her sleep peacefully, he did not sleep much throughout the night. He was constantly vigilant of his surroundings to prevent any accidents from happening. The two sleeping people might not even have the time to open their eyes before sleeping on this island forever.

Hai Xiaomin did not have such a sense of crisis for survival. If he told her, she might even feel that it was too exaggerated, but he was already used to it.

He stood up and prepared to go to the seaside to wash his face and wake up.

Hai Xiaomin was speechless and slightly embarrassed. She had indeed slept very well last night. She did not even have a dream all night.0
