Band Girl Drink Mixing Action

"Thank you Xiaoxiang, and Lixi..." Xiaodeng pulled his coat tighter, secretly lowered his head, and pretended to sniff the scent casually.

Hmm...it's just the fresh smell of ordinary laundry detergent.

"I'll be back as soon as I'm done...!"

"Don't be so anxious. We came out camping to help Xiao Deng prepare a report on the astronomy club's activities."

Seeing that Xiao Deng's shaking flame would affect her observation of the stars, she had to run to an open space not far away with the telescope. Qingchuan Xiang and Lixi, who were worried that she would catch a cold, even argued about whose clothes should be given to Deng.

After Xiao Deng walked away, Qingchuan Xiang hugged his arms and moved the small stool closer to the stove, trying to absorb more warmth.

"Don't burn yourself."

"When you care about others, even if it's just occasionally, try to only say nice things. That way, others won't be able to figure out whether you care or just dislike them."

"Tsk."

"here we go again--"

Although Qingchuan Xiang had taken off his coat and was only wearing a long-sleeved white shirt, he was shivering and curled up in front of the fire, hugging himself, but he seemed to be talking more frequently than before.

She didn’t know if it was Li Xi’s illusion, but she always felt that after Xiao Deng’s “confession” just now, Qingchuan Xiang seemed to be more excited.

"If Lixi could curb this habit even a little, Xiaodeng wouldn't be so respectful of you anymore. If you keep going on like this, Lixi will just have to watch Xiaodeng get kidnapped by me."

"...You really are a little too excited. It's completely different from your usual lazy self."

"Eh? Really?"

Qingchuan Xiang blinked. She really didn't realize the situation that Li Xi was talking about. She reflected on her behavior just now. It seemed that she spoke without thinking?

"Maybe I drank a little too much?" Qingchuan Xiang said uncertainly. To be honest, he was not unfamiliar with this state. It was his most classic performance when he was crossing the water.

"So you really did jump into the river and drink a lot of water this afternoon while I was getting my clothes?"

"What you said is quite vivid." Qingchuan Xiang followed Li Xi's words and imagined it for a while, and sadly found that it didn't seem to be an impossible scenario. "But I really didn't do it this time."

As Qingchuan Xiang spoke, she couldn't help but sway her body back and forth, and the little stool she was using creaked. Lixi also saw that Xiang's hair was not tied up carefully, and a few strands of hair almost fell into the fire, turning the beautiful pearl gray into a charred black.

"Just sit still." Unable to bear it any longer, Li Xi grabbed Qingchuan Xiang's collar with one hand and the small stool she was sitting on with the other, and pulled them back together.

Then he spread out his coat - a piece of clothing from Qing Chuanyu, much looser than the tight little coat Xiang gave Deng - and covered both her and Xiang with it.

"Li Xi." But Qingchuan Xiang turned his head and looked at Li Xi very seriously.

"What's wrong?" Li Xi's tone was a little awkward. It was obvious that she herself was not used to suddenly doing something that was unlike her. Her tone sounded even more vicious than usual.

"I'm glad Li Xi is finally taking the initiative," Qingchuan Xiang said seriously, "but if we don't get closer, the wind will leak out and we'll both catch a cold."

After saying that, Qingchuan Xiang stretched out his finger and poked Li Xi's arm, who was a million miles away from Xiang. The huge gap between the two of them felt as if there was an invisible person stuck in the middle. Of course, there are no invisible people in this world, so this position must be reserved for the noisy wind on the mountain.

"Just now when Xiao Deng was here, weren't we all sitting together quite comfortably? So it turns out Li Xi doesn't like me?"

Although he was saying words that seemed to be complaining, Qingchuan Xiang had a chuckling smile on his face. When that pretty face that could squeeze water out of it smiled like this, Li Xi really wanted to get angry, but it was as if someone was constantly pouring cold water on him, so he couldn't get angry. In the end, he just felt helpless and didn't know how to deal with this guy.

"Come on, sit closer."

"You don't drink river water, you drink fake wine..."

Although Qingchuan Xiang's individual behavior would make him feel overwhelmed during the day, Li Xi could see that it was Xiang's unconscious behavior. But now, this guy seemed to have suddenly opened up something and was completely actively provoking him.

Li Xi moved slowly and reluctantly, moving his seat closer to Qingchuan Xiang, but still leaving some space. Xiang moved a little closer and squeezed together with Li Xi, shoulder to shoulder, just like when they were together with Xiao Deng just now.

The coat, which originally could not cover the two of them, finally worked to keep them warm. Or rather, the effect seemed to be too good. Li Xi felt very hot all over even though he was still wearing his summer school uniform.

"Maybe just like when I drink water I get feelings from others, strong emotions can also give me similar feelings to drinking water?"

Qingchuan Xiang guessed his own situation and thought carefully. When he was with Xiangzi at home, he seemed to have some uncontrollable situations?

"Are you really a genuine human being..."

"Of course it's human!" Qingchuan Xiang didn't want to be completely expelled from the human race.

Although no decent human being would want to become a human being.

"So Lixi, why don't you say something to me now?"

"……say what?"

Looking at Qingchuan Xiang's sparkling eyes, Li Xi looked at her, and then subconsciously looked away immediately.

"Look, Xiao Deng, it's rare for you to suddenly say so much. The atmosphere is now like this, why don't you say a few words to me too?"

"Then why don't you say a few words to me?" Li Xi retorted subconsciously, but she regretted it the next second.

If Qingchuan Xiang in this state goes as expected...

"I've always thought you were amazing." Qingchuan Xiang tilted her head, and the smile on her face reminded Li Xi of Xiang, who was like an elf by the river in the afternoon. "Sister Li Xi~"

Chapter 273 Good Night

"What happened between Xiaoxiang and Lixi?"

When Dengxin had satisfied herself with the stars and walked back to the fire, for some reason, although Xiaoxiang and Lixi were covered with the same clothes and should have looked very harmonious, she felt as if they had just had a fight.

There was an irregular blush on Xiaoxiang's face, as if it was pinched out forcibly, the red was extremely bright. Xiaoxiang herself would grin as if in pain from time to time, and kept muttering words like "how rude..."

Li Xi looked better, the blush on her face looked more natural, as if she was just being shy. However, Li Xi's hands were clenched into fists, veins popping out, and they looked stiff.

Did anything happen while I was away? Xiao Deng thought with some worry.

"Haha... nothing happened." Qingchuan Xiang waved his hand, telling Xiao Deng not to think too much. "Look, Li Xi and I are both covered with the same clothes. We get along pretty well, don't we?"

"Yeah." Li Xi also nodded, but did not give Qingchuan Xiang any good look at all.

"Is it settled on Xiao Deng's side?" As if he didn't want Xiao Deng to continue pursuing this issue, Qingchuan Xiang immediately asked Deng back.

"No problem." Xiao Deng held the notebook in his arms and nodded vigorously.

"Okay, let's go back to the tent!"

Qingchuan Xiang was about to stand up, but she stumbled and almost fell, holding her waist with a look of "this is terrible". Li Xi saw her like this, perhaps because of the guilt, so he reached out to help Qingchuan Xiang.

"I won't thank you, Li Xi was too harsh—"

"I don't want your thanks either!"

So is everything really okay... Deng is still really worried. Will Li Xi and Xiao Xiang really fight when he is not around?

....................................

"what--"

After descending the mountain, the group, already exhausted from the climb, went to the river to wash the pots and pans before returning to the tent. Qingchuan Xiang unzipped the tent, casually removed his shoes, and lay down on the mat without even putting them in place. He hugged the quilt and let out a meaningless cry.

"After a day of activity, the most comfortable thing is to lie down in bed and relax."

Qingchuan Xiang said as he rolled back and forth in the tent, feeling the comfort on the three quilts, then rolled into a corner and waved outside the tent:

"Come in, it's really comfortable."

Looking at Qingchuan Xiang who was lying crookedly in the tent, with half of his face buried in the quilt and only one eye exposed, staring at the outside cleverly, Lixi and Xiaodeng also went into the tent one after another.

The tent, which originally looked quite spacious, immediately became much narrower after three people came in. However, it was definitely more than enough for three people to lie down and sleep.

Now it's a matter of allocating beds...

Li Xi suddenly discovered something. After Qingchuan Xiang came in first and lay down in the corner, he politely let Xiao Deng come in first. So in order not to block the door, Deng naturally crawled to the other corner of the tent. So now Li Xi was sitting in the middle position.

Did Li Xi have to spend the entire night surrounded by Xiao Deng on either side and Qingchuan Xiang, who was clearly in an inexplicably excited state, on the other? Especially since he had just had a "fight" with Qingchuan Xiang.

In that case, Li Xi would have to worry about whether he could sleep well tonight.

"Xiao Deng, do you want to sleep in the middle?" Li Xi had to ask Xiao Deng.

"Eh? Sure." Xiao Deng was stunned, but still agreed. "Li Xi doesn't like sleeping in the middle?"

"Huhu, someone is just feeling guilty and wants to escape right away."

Whatever you say... Li Xi directly chose to ignore what Qingchuan Xiang said, and first exchanged positions with Xiao Deng to stay away from this guy.

After deciding on our respective beds, we straightened the quilts, took off our coats, and lay directly into the warm bed. We could still hear the sound of the night wind blowing on the tent, and we felt very safe.

"Do you want to just turn off the lights and go to bed?"

"Well, actually, I have something I want to show Xiaoxiang and Lixi first..." Xiaodeng suddenly said, and then took out the notebook with the swimming fish on the cover.

“Actually, the lyrics are already written… right here.”

"lyrics?!"

Li Xi almost jumped up and made a hole in the tent. He looked at Xiao Deng with anticipation as he opened the notebook to the lyrics and began to read carefully.

Even if you stumble along the way, you still stand up again... It doesn't matter if you run away, even if you can't see the road, even if you lose your way, you still want to keep running...

“Really good lyrics…”

After Li Xi carefully read through the entire song, he was deeply moved. Xiao Deng's lyrics truly had the power to express his inner thoughts. If he could compose a song for these lyrics and sing it...

If he wasn't at home right now, Li Xi would have wanted to start composing right away.

"I am also looking forward to the moment when I can actually sing this song on the stage." Qingchuan Xiang also gave encouragement and affirmation to Xiaodeng.

Xiao Deng finally felt relieved to receive praise from Xiao Xiang and Li Xi.

"This song... is written for our new band that's starting over. It's our song..."

Xiao Deng looked at the notebook in his hand. There was no doubt that it contained Deng's heavy feelings for the current band, his expectations for the future, and... it was also an attempt to see if he could completely keep Xiao Xiang.

After successfully showing this song to Qingchuan Xiang and Lixi and receiving good feedback, Xiaodeng, who had breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly felt tired and her eyelids began to twitch.

"are you sleepy?"

"Um……"

Qingchuan Xiang raised his hand, touched the night light on the top of the tent, flipped the switch to turn it off, and the tent immediately fell into a quiet darkness that made people want to sleep.

For a moment, the world seemed to be filled with only sounds. Apart from the sound of the wind outside, the rustling sound of someone slowly moving in the quilt, and the sound of breathing nearby.

Sleeping at night always allows people to relax both physically and mentally, provided that they do not browse their mobile phones late at night. Otherwise, it will be difficult to have a good sleep quality no matter what.

Chapter 274 Nighttime Secrets

It feels quite good to sleep in a small enclosed space like a tent, especially when the wind is whistling outside the tent and making it rustle. The ambient sound that is not so harsh and monotonous always makes people feel an inexplicable sense of security from the bottom of their hearts.

In addition to the factor of ambient sound, there is another factor. According to research by scientists from somewhere, the psychological state that makes it easiest for people to fall asleep is when they know they are in an absolutely safe zone amidst danger.

It's like being in a cabin with a log fire crackling in the bitter cold, or hiding behind a turned-off webcam in an online math class.

Although there is only a slight breeze outside the tent, it does not prevent this interesting little psychological law from operating successfully in this small space.

Sharing a bed with someone is always prone to problems. Someone's sleeping posture is awkward, someone grinds their teeth at night, or someone harbors malicious intent, waiting for their partner to fall asleep and then, thinking it's perfectly safe, sneaking up on them. These can all severely disrupt the sleep experience. This goes without saying when sharing a bed with someone else, who's even more tightly packed together in a tent.

Fortunately, none of the three people present seemed to have such a problem.

When Xiao Deng sleeps, he'll curl up like some baby animals, folding his arms and resting them against his forehead. While he occasionally makes small movements, they don't make any noises that would alarm anyone around him. The most interesting thing is that, while he doesn't grind his teeth, his mouth sometimes opens and closes in a gurgling manner, perhaps indicating that he's singing passionately in his dreams.

Li Xize... to put it bluntly, he lay there with his hands folded on his abdomen, not twisted in any way, which really made people think he was lying there. He covered himself with the quilt, closed his eyes, and fell asleep. He really didn't make any noise, so he didn't disturb others.

Qingchuan Xiang does not have a fixed sleeping posture at night. Sometimes she lies on her side and sometimes on her stomach. What is quite amazing is that when she rolls around in the quilt to adjust her sleeping position, it is as if she were lubricated. It is very smooth. Although she is rolling around, she does not move her position, achieving a perfect golden rotation.

In addition, the three of them were really tired after all the hard work during the day and night, and they didn't even have the most classic bedtime chat in the dormitory before falling asleep quickly.

However, although falling asleep went smoothly, there was a tribulation waiting to happen the moment...

Around three o'clock in the middle of the night, Qingchuan Xiang woke up at this time as usual.

However, what was different from the past was that tonight Qingchuan Xiang did not get up to go to the bathroom because he drank too much water before going to bed. Even after getting up tonight, Qingchuan Xiang licked his lips and felt a little thirsty.

I really want to drink water...

Qingchuan Xiang woke up in the middle of the night and looked inside the tent in a daze. There was a layer of transparent gauze on the upper layer of the tent. The faint moonlight shone in through the gaps in this layer, allowing Xiang to see some colors inside the tent.

He subconsciously reached out and touched the pillow, but instead of grabbing the water cup on the bedside table, he touched the short hair of Xiao Deng who was sleeping beside him. He almost grabbed the hair and pulled his hand back.

"Well……"

Although Qingchuan Xiang stopped in time, Xiaodeng was still half awakened in his drowsiness, turned over, and opened his eyes a little.

"Xiao Xiang...what's wrong?"

"It's okay. I always wake up automatically at this time. Sorry for waking you up too."

Qingchuan Xiang hadn't completely withdrawn his hand yet, so he simply gently covered Xiaodeng's eyes, helped her close her eyes again, and patted her forehead lightly.

Because he was covered with the quilt obediently, Deng's body temperature was slightly high. When Qingchuan Xiang's cool hand gently touched his head, he felt as if someone had placed a bag of cold water on his forehead, cool and comfortable.
