Raising Octopus Juvenile - Chapter 55
Cecil had a full minute, and his brain lost its thinking.
She stared at Lanney blankly, her eyes seeming a little shallow because of the loss.
She could hear her heart beating happily, deafening, like beating a drum.
“Cecile?” Lanny called her strangely, touching her cheek with his slender fingers.
It was cold and very hot.
Cecil finally came back to her senses, she blinked a few times quickly, and then concealedly dropped her thick eyelashes slightly.
She is very sure, very sure.
—At that moment, her heart moved.
Not because of beauty confuses, nor because of lack of reason.
It’s really true, moved by Lanny’s words.
This is weird.
He is her pet, he is only stating this fact, his tone is not even a trace of waves.
But she was delighted by such a simple sentence, and even a sweet, cryptic tinge of satisfaction emerged.
As if from the bottom of my heart tremblingly bloom a delicate flower.
Because Lenny told her, “He is hers too”.
A wonderful feeling spread silently in Cecil’s heart. She couldn’t help curling up her fingertips, her long eyelashes trembling slightly under the light, like snow-colored butterfly wings wet by rain.
She, she needs to sort out her chaotic mood and think more calmly…
Cecil did not speak again. She lowered her head and walked around Lenny, walked straight to the bed, picked up the pillows and pajamas on the bed, and then walked towards the door without looking back.
“Cecile?” Lanny was even more confused. He grabbed Cecil’s arm and printed a light red mark on Cecil’s skin because he forgot to control his strength.
But Cecil did not notice this, her senses have been weakened by the fierce heartbeat, anyway, she just wanted to escape here as soon as possible.
“Are you upset?” Lanny leaned over to look at her cautiously.
“No, I just…” Cecil’s voice was low, with a hint of panic that was not easily detectable, “…I’m just sleepy, I’m going to sleep.”
Lanny still refused to let her go.
“You can sleep here,” he said.
“No, I can’t stay in the same room with you…”
“I won’t eat you.” Lanny cast aside his lips aggrievedly.
Cecil certainly knew this. But now she can’t live in the same room with Lanny, she is afraid that her heart will explode.
“I know. But I just want to be alone…” Cecil lifted his eyes helplessly and looked at Lanney pleadingly, “You can let me go to bed alone, okay?”
It was the first time Lenny saw her with such an expression.
Her ears are red and her cheeks are red. But her expression was helpless and hesitating, and she looked fragile differently than usual.
Not that fragility on the outside, but on the inside. Her heart was shaking.
Lanny felt very distressed. He didn’t want to see Cecil showing such an expression, but he didn’t want to let Cecil leave him.
He stared at Cecil intently, and finally chose the latter with difficulty between satisfying his desires and making Cecil happy.
“Then you can’hug’ with me?” In the end, he made a request somewhat lowly, drooping his furry head like an abandoned dog.
Cecil’s heart beat faster.
“…Can.”
She couldn’t bear to refuse this poor fellow.
Lanny’s mood jumped again. He looked at Cecil hopefully, extending his arms to her expectantly like Arnold.
Cecil dared not look into his eyes. She lifted her arms, slowly crossed Lanny’s arms, wrapped her hands around his back, and then gently pressed her face against his cold chest.
She could hear the other’s heartbeat, like a human being, beating steadily and regularly.
Unlike her, it’s a mess.
Cecil gently hugged the beautiful boy as if he had just tasted it. However, the other party was not satisfied with such a touch. He gradually tightened his arms and almost greedily embraced her into his arms.
“Cecil, can you not leave here?” he asked in a low voice in Cecil’s ear.
When Cecil’s ears softened, he almost compromised.
But she could still hear the voice in her chest, reminding her all the time.
Calm down.
“Lanny, don’t be disobedient.” She buried her face in Lanny’s chest, her eyes closed slightly, and she sniffed the cold, good-smelling breath from him, “We said it.”
“…Okay.” Lenny agreed reluctantly.
Cecil breathed a sigh of relief secretly, and was a little bit unclear about the loss.
She slowly released Lanny, lowered her eyelashes, took a step back, and said softly:
“Good night, Lanny.”
Lanny looked at her, Yan Li’s delicate face was full of frustration and depression: “Good night, Cecil.”
He looked very pitiful.
Cecil almost couldn’t control himself, turned around quickly, and left the room as if he fled.
She is going to find Lena.
Cecil stood outside Lena’s door holding a pillow.
In fact, on the way out of the house, she struggled over whether to look for Lena or Stella.
Arnold must not be found anyway, he will kill Lenny.
Although Lena is the opposite of her, she is also a serious girl, and in many ways, she is much more normal than her. And Stella is just a demon, so she certainly doesn’t understand human mood.
-What’s more, it’s still this kind of messy girl’s mind.
So Cecil hesitated for a moment, and knocked on Lena’s door.
There was almost no waiting time, and Lena quickly came over and opened the door.
“Sister…! You are finally back!” Behind the door, the girl with blond hair and blue eyes opened her eyes slightly, and said in surprise.
Cecil glanced at her slightly. Although Lena is wearing pajamas, her hair is not messy, her face is not awake, and she doesn’t seem to be asleep yet.
Cecil said uncertainly: “Are you still asleep?”
Lena shook her head repeatedly: “I heard that you have never come back, so worried that you can’t sleep at all.”
There was a little guilt in Cecil’s heart.
I thought that only Arnold was worried about her, but I didn’t expect Lena to be waiting for her to come back. She touched her nose with some embarrassment, and said: “Actually, I just went out to play, you don’t have to worry about me so much…”
[Violence warning! ! 】
Cecil: “…”
It’s so annoying, I have to jump out to warn her at this time.
She closed her mouth uncomfortably, but Lena still heard the closeness in her words. And she also saw the pillow that Cecil was holding in her arms, and she hardly thought about it, so Lena happily pulled Cecil into the room.
“It’s cold outside, sister, come in!”
Cecil was pulled into the room by her.
The light in the room is not bright, only a shining fluorescent lamp is lit in front of the bed. The curtains were not drawn, and the silver, cold moonlight poured all over the floor.
Lena pressed the bewildered Cecil onto the soft big bed, then spread the thin quilt, climbed onto the bed, and lay side by side with Cecil sweetly.
“That…” Cecil didn’t know what to say.
“Huh?” Lena turned her head and looked at her expectantly. “Any troubles?”
…It can be regarded as an annoyance, probably.
Cecil frowned and stretched slowly, looking very hesitant and distressed.
Seeing this, Lena adjusted her lying position slightly, lying on her side, facing Cecil, and then softly encouraging her: “It’s okay, you can say anything you want, my mouth is very strong, I will never tell. other’s.”
This is where Alex is far inferior to Lena.
Cecil was inexplicably relieved when he heard these words. She raised her eyelids and looked at Lena quietly, as if inspired by the other party, she finally spoke slowly.
“Actually…I have been a little worried lately.”
She said, “I seem to have an emotional feeling for someone.”
Hearing this, Lena suddenly widened her eyes in surprise: “Heart? What kind of boy is so lucky?”
“…” Cecil replied in a low voice, “It’s an idiot who doesn’t understand anything and just thinks about eating all day.”
Lena thoughtfully: “…That’s indeed an idiot.”
Cecil: “…”
“But my sister will have a good impression of him, does it mean that he is cute?” Lena asked with a smile.
Cecil was taken aback for a moment, then lightly chin, and the corners of her mouth raised a slight arc that she didn’t even notice.
“Well, he is very good… and very clingy.”
Lena: “Like a puppy?”
Cecilton paused: “Not as obedient as a puppy.”
“But it sounds cute,” Lena concluded.
Cecil wanted to correct her: “No, he often plays pranks. He is cunning and likes to pretend to be pitiful. He is totally uncomfortable with cuteness.”
Lena said affirmatively: “But even so, he is still very cute in your eyes.”
Cecil: “Hey?”
“Because your expression says so.” Lena poked her soft cheek lightly, reminding her in a low voice.
When she mentioned that “unlovable guy”, she kept smiling like nothing on her face. Her eyes are also very bright, dotted with stars, like the Milky Way at night, bright and gentle.
This is the performance of falling in love.
Cecil didn’t know that he had exposed so much unknowingly. She pressed the corners of her lips with some guilty conscience, her eyelashes quivered, and she was silent for a while.
“Sister?” Lena called to her.
“Do you think…” Cecil said hesitantly, “Is this a good impression?”
Lena nodded: “Yes, the goodwill is already very high.”
“But, I’m a little scared of him.”
Lena said in surprise: “Fear of him? Why are you afraid of him?”
“Because he is dangerous to me.” Cecilton paused and added softly, “It is the kind of danger that threatens life.”
He will be unable to control his appetite and will treat her as his own food when he is extremely hungry.
Cecil was terrified of Lenny like this in the bottom of his heart, even though he would say to her earnestly and sincerely every time, I don’t eat you.
Lena thought for a while and asked cautiously: “Then has he hurt you?”
Cecil shook his head slightly: “No.”
Lena: “Then do you want to leave him?”
“…I don’t want to.” Cecil’s answer was half a beat slow.
“I know he is dangerous, but I still don’t want to leave him…” Lina sighed slightly, then bent her eyes and smiled brightly, “Sister, this is more than just a good impression.”
“You already like him.”
