Moonlight falls into my arms

Ruan Li agonized over this matter for a whole day, and finally sent a message to Jiang Yuci, telling him that she had left her diary on her desk.

The other end was probably busy, as they didn't reply until very late.

Ruan Li was drawing a sketch when her phone vibrated beside her. She instinctively thought it was her boss calling her to play games again, but fearing she wouldn't be able to stop once she started using her phone, she didn't open it to check.

After finishing the drawing, I got up and did a few stretching exercises. When I checked the time, it was already 2 o'clock.

It was her usual bedtime, so Ruan Li put away her manuscript and prepared to wash up.

I went to the bathroom and picked up my phone to look at it.

There were indeed messages from influential figures, but there were also messages from Jiang Yuci.

Jiang Yuci probably got off work late again, as he didn't reply to the message until after 10 p.m.

-Yes, I saw it. My mom suddenly contacted you that day and offended you. I've already talked to her, and I won't bother you again.

Ruan Li looked at his long string of words; they seemed important, but she felt they were unnecessary.

At least, Jiang Yuci wouldn't have posted this much in the past.

He resolved his mother's issue that very day, and Ruan Li had always trusted him completely.

Ruan Li sent a sincere thank you message.

Jiang Yuci got off work around 10 PM, and should already be asleep by then, so Ruan Li didn't expect a reply from him.

Instead, he went to talk to the big shot.

- I was busy just now.

The big shot who was also a champion of staying up all night replied instantly.

- Have you been busy until now?

Ruan Li sent a nodding emoji.

- People who go to work and earn their own living are different from people like you who stay at home and sponge off your parents.

The two often bantered like this, neither willing to yield an inch.

Surprisingly, this time the other side didn't retaliate; instead, they sent a message saying:

- Don't overwork yourself, it's almost 3 a.m., go to sleep early.

After saying this, he also sent money to Ruan Li.

Ruan Li: ? ? ?

It's one thing for her to criticize, but it's another thing for the other person to take it seriously.

He immediately trembled and apologized to the big boss.

-(＞人＜；) Sorry, just kidding. I'll skip work tomorrow and play games with you to make it up to you, okay?

Ruan Li thought she had hurt the pride of the big boss, a dropout, so of course she didn't dare to accept the money.

The other side replied again:

-You're so tired from work, you should get some rest and play less video games.

Ruan Li trembled even more. This was not like him at all. Had his phone been taken by an angel?

Ruan Li tentatively sent a question mark.

- Um, are you serious or just being sarcastic?

The other side: ...Are you out of your mind?

Ruan Li finally felt at ease.

-Great, the angel finally returned your phone to you.

Just as Ruan Li breathed a sigh of relief, another message came from the other end.

When do you plan to go home?

Ruan Li froze.

-You? How did you know I wasn't home?

I sent you a message before and you didn't reply, so I asked your parents. They said you weren't home, and I thought you had run away from home for some reason.

Ruan Li never expected that the big shot had actually been in contact with Jiang Yuci.

She touched her forehead.

-When did you become so kind? Leave me a little bit of privacy, oh no, please.

There was no reply from the other end for a long time.

After Ruan Li finished washing up and was ready to go to bed.

The message just arrived on my phone.

- I was wrong last time. I didn't mean to spy on you. I just happened to see a tablecloth in your photo that looked familiar, so I guessed that you and I were in the same restaurant. When you saw me, you ran away. I thought you were just embarrassed.

Ruan Li stared blankly at the message, thinking for a long time, but she couldn't recall when she had seen him and then run away from him.

"Are you sure you're seeing me?" Ruan Li asked in shock, sending a voice message immediately.

"Boss, don't scare me. I never saw you, and I didn't see you run away."

Ruan Li suddenly felt a little scared in the empty room.

She slowly wrapped herself in the blankets, not daring to turn off the light.

"It's the Hunan restaurant next to the Lingyue Hotel, haven't you been there?"

As Ruan Li listened to the clear, youthful voice across from her, she vaguely recognized someone.

But they were hesitant to admit it.

"You, you really saw me? What color clothes were you wearing?"

Ruan Li wore two black down jackets that Jiang Yuci had bought for her, and she alternated between these two jackets when she went out.

The person on the other end said, "You were wearing a red wool coat, and you were holding your phone as if you were on a call. You ran away when you saw me."

Ruan Li calmed down and said, "You've mistaken me for someone else. I only have black clothes, and I don't have any red wool coat. That's not me."

"Isn't that you? You're fair-skinned and chubby, and you're wearing glasses."

Ruan Li gritted her teeth: "When did I ever tell you I was chubby and fair-skinned?"

"Anyway, that's not me. Don't go looking for Jiang Yu again... My parents sent me a message. I'm going to sleep."

The other person replied with "goodnight" and didn't send any more messages.

After Ruan Li talked to him for a while, she lost all sleepiness and tossed and turned in bed.

I opened the game I hadn't played in a long time, ready to play a match by myself.

She never expected that the person who had just said goodnight to her would actually invite her.

Ruan Li accepted the message and started a voice chat: "We really are going to be the kings of staying up all night."

I glanced at the time; it was already past three. Oh well, I could stay up any later.

Ruan Li then started playing games with the expert.

I played all night.

I was playing intensely when my phone vibrated and a message popped up.

Ruan Li didn't look closely, focusing on the game in her hand. The colorful hero characters were crammed together, making it hard to look at.

The pro player got a quadra kill, and the last one was finished off by Ruan Li.

My eyes followed the message after I clicked on it.

But when he saw the familiar note, his eyes paused.

She clicked on it in a flurry of activity.

- Avoid staying up late.

Ruan Li frantically typed on the keyboard, her mind racing, and her trembling hands accidentally pressed the voice call button.

The bell rang in the quiet room.

Ruan Li's nerves also tensed up.

My fingertip hovered over the screen.

Just as I was about to hang up, the other end answered almost instantly.

After the call connected, there was another period of silence.

Ruan Li licked her dry lips; she hadn't slept all night, and her throat was a little dry.

A deep, resonant voice came through the microphone from the other end, carrying a slightly magnetic quality.

"You didn't sleep all night?"

Ruan Li's mind went blank for a moment, and she cleared away all the images she had imagined of how to talk to the person who rejected her.

Her mind was in turmoil. How could she put it? She had indeed stayed up all night.

After leaving Jiang Yuci, he became completely unrestrained.

He arranged for Jiang Yuci to eat all the junk food he usually forbade, the super spicy Cao's food he usually forbade, and all the things he usually forbade, like staying up late and playing games all night.

The other person sounded somewhat helpless: "You... don't you know how you're feeling?"

Ruan Li said weakly, "I'm fine. I'll just eat an egg to replenish my energy. I'll go boil an egg now."

As Ruan Li spoke, she suddenly threw off her blanket and got out of bed to boil herself an egg to nourish herself.

Suddenly, my vision went black, my mind went blank, and then my consciousness faded.

The phone crashed to the ground with a loud thud.

"Ruan Li?"

"Ruan Li!"

Jiang Yuci listened to the sounds on the other end of the phone, took the phone off her ear, glanced at it, and did not hang up.

The red light turned green, but Jiang Yuci didn't go to the hospital; instead, he immediately turned around.
