Chapter 376: Chapter 264: What was I trying to do just now? (Target of 8000 words achieved!)

Beichuan Si woke up once again.

This time he glanced around the environment.

It was still the Beichuan Family home.

He leaned back on the couch.

On Beichuan Si’s right, Beichuan Huili was hugging Nishijou Kelian as they watched the popular detective series on television, and Nakajima Michika was repeatedly revising a piece of paper.

Behind Beichuan Si, Shen Gu Mirai was busily preparing tea.

The Shinra Bell hung on the wall nearby.

Beichuan Si subconsciously reached under the couch.

He pulled out a long, thin vine.

After pulling out the vine, he turned to look at Nakajima Michika.

"Beichuan! What are you trying to do?!" Nakajima Michika exclaimed, hurriedly covering her rear end, "I haven’t done anything!"

A look of panic covered her heroic face.

Good...

Nakajima Michika’s reaction was very real; this time it must be completely out of the dream.

This time, it was genuinely out of the dream.

Beichuan Si stuffed the vine back under the cushion.

Next to him, Nakajima Michika and Beichuan Huili had moved to another couch.

Both were afraid that upsetting Beichuan Si would result in a beating.

Unlike the two, Shen Gu Mirai hurried over with a tray as soon as she saw Beichuan Si awake and offered him hot tea and snacks, "Mr. Temple, please enjoy."

"Um," Beichuan Si nodded and took a sip of tea.

Shen Gu Mirai removed her apron and sat next to Beichuan Si, her face full of curiosity, "Mr. Temple, did you have a good dream just now?"

"I had a good dream?" Beichuan Si tilted his head, expression unchanged, "Why do you ask?"

"Well... it didn’t quite feel like a good dream," Shen Gu Mirai placed her index finger on her lips, pondering, "I should say... at first you were frowning deeply, but then it relaxed, and you even smiled."

Thinking this, Shen Gu Mirai chuckled, "This is the first time I’ve seen Mr. Temple’s sleeping face, and he even smiled. I took a photo earlier to use as my phone wallpaper!"

"Is that so?" Beichuan Si touched his face.

It was the same as usual, no significant change.

Then, Beichuan Huili’s voice came from behind, hurrying to say:

"That’s right, it was just a faint smile, but Brother Temple did smile!"

But before she could finish, Beichuan Si tapped her on the head.

"Brother Temple, why did you do that?!" Beichuan Huili covered her head, crying out in grievance.

"Uh, a subconscious action." Beichuan Si apologized and withdrew his finger.

The tired woman had pretended to be Beichuan Huili in the dream world, stopping Beichuan Si from punishing her.

It was suppressed then, but now that he was back in the real world and saw Beichuan Huili looking like that, his fingers moved subconsciously.

That’s what he thought, but on the other side, Beichuan Huili’s face turned pale.

A subconscious action?

So, hitting her had almost become a subconscious action for Brother Temple?

That shouldn’t be, right?

Would it turn into him hitting her out of habit whenever he saw her in the future?

The thought of growing up and still living under Beichuan Si’s shadow made Beichuan Huili’s face sorrowful.

She threw a tantrum on Beichuan Si’s lap:

"I don’t want it, I don’t want subconscious actions! Brother Temple, don’t hit me!"

"..." Beichuan Si.

Huh?

Where had Salty Egg Sister gone off to in her thoughts?

Beichuan Si touched her little head, not quite understanding.

However, this action not only failed to have a calming effect but made Beichuan Huili struggle even more.

Beichuan Si sighed deeply in his heart.

His younger sister.

Already in her first year of high school, turning sixteen, yet she still acted like a salty egg.

Beichuan Si didn’t know who had upset her.

He just let her have her way for the moment.

By the time Beichuan Huili finally came around to some understanding, it was almost ten o’clock.

"I, I’m going to take a shower and then sleep!" Seeing the time on the clock, Beichuan Huili’s face turned red; she had actually squatted on Beichuan Si’s body for nearly half an hour.

After leaving that remark, she hurried into the bathroom, not noticing the envious look on Shen Gu Mirai’s face at the side.

Meanwhile, Nakajima Michika had gone upstairs earlier. She was afraid that staying here might provoke Beichuan Si to subconsciously hit her as well, and she couldn’t bear that.

And after Beichuan Huili left, only Beichuan Si and Shen Gu Mirai remained in the living room.

Beichuan Si didn’t just sit there idly.

He took down the Shinra Bell from the wall, and also fetched the wobbling Nishijou Kelian walking towards upstairs, and then began to inquire:

"Just now, did you two not sense the presence of the tired woman?"

Beichuan Si looked serious.

This was a crucial question; the tired woman had intruded into his dream, but there had been no reaction from either Nishijou Kelian or Shenzhu Shihui.

If they couldn’t sense it, he would have to ask Shen Gu Mirai to sleep on the floor in his room.

After all, being unable to sense it meant they couldn’t alert him in time, which was undoubtedly very dangerous.

But before Shenzhu Shihui or Nishijou Kelian could answer, Shen Gu Mirai spoke up first, "Actually, Sister Shihui and Kelian did sense it."

"They sensed it? Then why didn’t you wake me up earlier?" Beichuan Si was somewhat surprised.

Uh...

Shen Gu Mirai couldn’t help but touch her head.

She didn’t quite know what to say.

Should she say, ’We saw you sleeping so soundly, like you were having a nice dream, and thought the sensing was a mistake, so we didn’t wake you up’?
