My heart tightened. I quickly reached back to pry off the hands of the person behind me. His chest was pressed tightly against my back, and I felt a slight coolness near my ear.
"Don't say a word. Just go back to sleep."
As soon as I heard this voice, I seemed to get even more nervous. I could tell that the person behind me was Gu Yuan. Then who was that dark figure passing by in the dormitory corridor?
Watching the dark figure gradually approaching, I stared wide - eyed, trying to make out the person's face.
But then Gu Yuan flipped my whole body around.
"Just look at me."
I held my breath and bit my lips tightly. The more Gu Yuan didn't let me look, the more curious I became. A strange man breaking into the dormitory in the middle of the night. Shouldn't we call the dormitory supervisor?
My face was so close to Gu Yuan's that I could clearly feel his slightly cool breath.
My breathing became uneven because the sense of the unknown made my hair stand on end.
But this wasn't fear, because with Gu Yuan around, I felt completely at ease.
My eyes were wide open. I was so curious about what was going on behind me that my eyes kept drifting backward, hinting to Gu Yuan to tell me what was happening.
Seeing my anxious expression, Gu Yuan curled up the corner of his mouth in a devilish smile.
"You wanna know what's going on?" Gu Yuan tightened his embrace around me. His lips got closer to my ear, and his voice was so seductive that I shivered all over.
I wasn't going to be outdone. I whispered in his ear.
"You're asking a question you already know the answer to."
"Then I'll show you."
After saying that, Gu Yuan rolled over and pinned me down. His lips were about to touch mine.
I quickly pushed against his chest, stopping him from getting closer.
"Ah... What are you doing? This is the dormitory. You can't act recklessly."
"Didn't you say you wanted to know what that guy was doing?"
I turned my head to look at the corridor. The person was no longer there. Then I looked at Yan Lin's bed. The flimsy small bed was creaking. That person had climbed onto Yan Lin's bed. I didn't even need to think to know what was going on.
It turned out to be the glasses guy. He was really bold. How did he manage to sneak past the dormitory auntie?
Suddenly, I had an urge to go over and stop him. But then I thought about it. There was a man in my bed too. What right did I have to stop others?
"Go to sleep." I turned around and buried my head in Gu Yuan's arms, not looking at them anymore.
Gu Yuan was lying on his side, propping his chin up with one arm. I couldn't see his face clearly in the dark, but I was sure his expression wasn't normal.
"Are you still looking?" I turned Gu Yuan's face to make him look at me.
"Unable to stop, so we can only hide well." Gu Yuan whispered something, which made me feel quite confused. Did he want to move that guy to another dormitory again?
"Stop? Don't get any funny ideas. We've already tricked Yan Lin once. Am I supposed to get out of bed now and ask Yan Lin why there's a ghost in her bed? She'd definitely retort that there's a hooligan in my bed."
"The one in her bed is indeed a ghost, but I don't admit that I'm a hooligan." Gu Yuan snapped out of his thoughts and replied casually.
"Don't peek." I forcefully pressed on Gu Yuan's chest to make him lie flat and stop looking around.
"Okay, then I'll hide you."
Rarely was Gu Yuan so obedient. He pulled up the quilt and wrapped the two of us tightly. The quilt rustled as he tickled me.
"You still say you're not a hooligan. Ahahaha. Stop it. It's so itchy." I wriggled my body non - stop and laughed until tears came out. I quickly grabbed his hands to stop him from moving.
"I'm only a hooligan to you."
After saying that, he pinned my hands above my head. His lips touched my forehead. A wave of drowsiness washed over me, and I slowly closed my eyes and fell asleep.
I had absolutely no idea what he was going to do next.
...
Early the next morning, when I woke up, Gu Yuan was already gone. I was really too sleepy last night. What exactly happened after I fell asleep?
I took out my phone and sent a message to Gu Yuan to confirm.
It took a while for Gu Yuan to reply: [Everything that should have happened happened.]
My face flushed. I almost rolled off the bed. He was just spouting nonsense again. I threw my phone on the bedside and didn't bother to care about him.
I looked up at the wall clock. It was already past nine.
The class advisor should be in the office by now. I quickly got out of bed and nudged Yan Lin to wake her up.
"Get up. We have to go see the class advisor."
Yan Lin groggily let her head hang over the edge of the bed. I suddenly turned my head and was startled.
Thank goodness it was daytime. If it were night, I'd think I'd seen a ghost.
She looked listless with two dark circles under her eyes. There were bruises on her neck. People who didn't know would think she'd been strangled hard.
Seeing her in such a sorry state, I couldn't help but frown. "How hard did he go at it last night? He's ruined you like this."
Yan Lin's face instantly flushed all the way to her neck. "It was so late. Why weren't you asleep?"
I gave her a hard pat on the shoulder. "You're crazy. This is the girls' dormitory."
Yan Lin chuckled. "It won't happen again. It was his birthday yesterday. I don't know if there's something wrong with us. Every time I'm with him, I feel dizzy."
I couldn't help but laugh and tease her. "You're head - over - heels for him, aren't you?"
Yan Lin chuckled. "Maybe."
"How did he get in?"
"I don't know. Anyway, he said he had a way." Yan Lin curled up the corner of her mouth. I really didn't know what she was so proud of.
I urged her to get out of bed quickly. It seemed the class advisor had a class soon.
Yan Lin hunched over as she got out of bed and put on her clothes.
People say that being in love makes people look younger. Why does Yan Lin seem so haggard to me?
I had to go back and discuss it with Gu Yuan. It seemed we still had to be more moderate in the future.
...
After what happened last time, the class advisor's attitude had done a 180 - degree turn.
She first took my hand and "reported" to me about Zhang Man's situation.
Thanks to the surveillance camera, the man who had assaulted Zhang Man was arrested on the spot after the police were called. He was definitely going to face severe punishment from the law.
Zhang Man had gone to the hospital for surgery. She didn't keep the baby. Now her mental state was much better. The class advisor told me to visit her more often when I had time.
I nodded in agreement.
After telling me all this, she gently took Yan Lin's hand. Her look was just like that of a mother looking at her daughter.
This made Yan Lin feel extremely uncomfortable. The class advisor's words left her even more confused.
"Yan Lin, do you have any difficulties? Or have you encountered something recently that made you mentally broken? If you have anything to say, tell the class advisor. I know a very good psychologist. I can take you to see him."
"I'm not saying you're mentally ill. It's normal to be under a lot of pressure sometimes. With the guidance of a psychologist, you won't get stuck in a rut."
Yan Lin's mouth hung open slightly, and her eyebrows were uneven. She was simply in disbelief. Was this still the "Auntie Doom" she knew?
"Class advisor, I'm fine. I don't need to see a psychologist. As long as you don't tell my mom about that day, I'll be really grateful to you."
Just as Yan Lin finished speaking, her phone rang.
"Sorry, class advisor. I'll go out to answer the phone first." She waved her phone and pulled open the door to go out.
As soon as Yan Lin left, the class advisor mysteriously pulled me to watch the video captured by the surveillance camera that day.
"You're good friends. I won't hide it from you. Take a look at what she's doing."
To be honest, when I saw the content of the surveillance video, I was also stunned.
