Did she intend to lure me upstairs to sleep, and then commit suicide to escape this painful world?

Thinking of this, Lai didn't dare to go up, and shamelessly lay down on the other side of the sofa.

Hearing the commotion behind her, Mai Sakurajima knew that her plan was halfway to success.

That's right, the trick we just used was called "using death to trick him into staying!"

If you make him think he doesn't want to live, given his personality, he certainly won't watch the person in front of him die silently.

The most important thing is the last trick, which is called "deception"!

Try to coax him to the sofa, and then naturally fall asleep in his arms.

P.S.: There's no dome here, look carefully!

Chapter 101: Masterful Acting at Gaining Sympathy

The first step to coaxing him is to play the victim and gain his sympathy.

As I spent time with him, I gradually came to understand that he was a compassionate person.

He's especially soft-hearted when it comes to women, so the first step is to play the victim.

The highest form of pitifulness is silent weeping. Weeping is the most heart-wrenching emotion, and it is most fatal to a soft-hearted person like him.

Mai Sakurajima's mind raced as she organized her thoughts and laid out a plan.

Then, she closed her rosy eyes, gathered her emotions, and delivered the performance of a leading lady.

After a moment of reflection, when she opened her eyes again, her face was covered in tears. She was sobbing softly, her delicate body trembling with sobs.

Lai, who had been observing her, became worried when he saw her trembling.

"Pork belly, what's wrong with you? Are you having an epileptic seizure?"

"Don't scare me in the middle of the night, my heart can't take a fright."

But the response was an even more violent spasm.

Seeing this, Lai's worry deepened. He stood up from the sofa and rushed to her side without even putting on his slippers.

"Pork belly? Pork belly? Pork belly?"

Lai reached out and gently tapped her back, indicating what was wrong.

The only response was the twitching of her body.

Lai frowned, his expression darkening. His keen hearing picked up a faint sob, very softly.

Is she crying?

Lai realized something was wrong and quickly turned her back with her hand.

The first thing you see is Mai Sakurajima with tears streaming down her face, looking pitiful and heartbreaking.

Lai's heart softened, and without saying a word, she reached for the tissue box on the table and pulled out some tissues.

He gently and carefully wiped away her tears with a tissue.

“Lai...”

With her eyes red and swollen, Mai Sakurajima let out a soft cry, her voice filled with helplessness and confusion, like a lonely girl abandoned by her family.

Lai nodded and said gently, "I'm here, I've always been here."

Upon hearing this, Mai Sakurajima felt the time was right and threw herself into his arms, pretending to cry and shout to vent her anxiety.

Lai held her tightly, letting her cry on his chest, while gently stroking her back as if comforting Qiong.

"Be good, be good, I'm here, I'm here, I've always been here!"

"I will heal you, I will definitely heal you, don't worry, don't worry..."

"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid..."

As he tenderly comforted her, Mai Sakurajima, nestled against his chest, revealed a triumphant look in her eyes, her lips curving upwards in a satisfied smile.

Although she was deceiving his sympathy, Mai Sakurajima felt no guilt whatsoever.

Instead, she wanted him to expose her and then teach her a lesson, as if she had awakened a strange attribute.

.....

The room on the second floor, Kasugano Sora's room.

Kasugano Sora slept peacefully in her pink bed, fast asleep in a sweet dream.

He habitually hugged the black rabbit doll with both hands, smacked his lips from time to time as if savoring the memory, and uttered a few baffling ramblings in his sleep.

"Lai, I want to be able to drink fresh milk every morning when I wake up..."

"Lai, don't talk to that vixen Sakurajima, I hate her..."

"And then there are the red-haired, silver-haired, and black-haired girls—they're so annoying, I want to kill them all one by one..."

"Especially the red-haired one... Sanae Ebato, I absolutely hate the way she looks at you, like she wants to devour you whole..."

"Lai...Lai...I love you~"

......

First floor living room.

Thirty minutes passed slowly.

Lai gently placed the girl on his chest onto the sofa, then went to the guest room on the first floor and took out a thin blue blanket.

He covered her beautiful and sexy figure with the blanket, and then thoughtfully adjusted the living room air conditioner to a comfortable temperature for the night.

After finishing the system, she looked down at her pajamas, which were already mostly soaked with her tears.

With a helpless sigh, she decided to go upstairs to change her clothes.

In the instant she turned around, Mai Sakurajima instinctively grabbed his wrist, stopping him from moving forward, while simultaneously feigning weakness and helplessness.

"Don't go...don't go...don't go...I'm scared...scared..."

Lai remained where he was, feeling helpless upon hearing her request. Considering her current condition, he was also worried and decided to wait until she fell asleep before going up.

"I won't go, don't be afraid, I won't go...".c0m

Lai sat down on the sofa, looking at Sakurajima Mai who was no longer the same as before, and comforted her in a very gentle tone.

Mai Sakurajima grabbed his wrist, her face filled with fear, and pleaded, "Lai, can you sleep with me?"

"what???"

Lai exclaimed in surprise and confusion, "What kind of mysterious operation is this?"

Mai Sakurajima lowered her head and explained sadly, "Don't overthink it, because when I was little, my mother would quietly hold me and help me fall asleep whenever I felt helpless."

"But as I grew up, my mother focused on her career and neglected my feelings."

"And besides, I'm from a single-parent family..."

Upon hearing this, Lai couldn't help but ponder, finding a faint thread of doubt within her.

Could it be that the strange illness of the pork belly was caused by her mother?

Or rather, there must have been some unpleasant conflict between the two, otherwise the mother and daughter wouldn't have become like mortal enemies.

So what exactly happened between the two of them?

This is a puzzle worth pondering.

Seeing that Lai was thinking with his eyes down, Sakurajima Mai decided to put in even more effort.

First, she reluctantly let go of his wrist, then lowered her head with an extremely disappointed expression, acting with unparalleled realism.

"Lai, I'm sorry, I was rude. I shouldn't have made such a request about the proper distance between men and women."

"It's my fault!"

Having said that, to make it seem more realistic, she raised her hand and slapped her delicate face.

Slap after slap, the sound of slapping echoing across her face, showed how ruthless she was to herself.

Lai was lost in thought, subconsciously emptying her mind and shutting out the sounds of the outside world, completely unaware of her actions at that moment.

clap clap-

After being filmed for a while, Mai Sakurajima felt like her face no longer belonged to her; the waves of tingling pain were extremely uncomfortable.

But I endured it so I could sleep with him!

Ignoring the throbbing pain, I increased the pressure of my palm and slapped myself hard across the face. You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub!

With a "smack," she winced in pain.

While performing the wolf-slaying stunt, she was internally ranting: "What a bastard! I've been slapping him for minutes, and he's still standing there, staring blankly like a block of wood!"

"Stop me, you bastard, you bastard!!!"

Lai pondered for a few moments, and seeing that there was no rope hanging over him, he stopped thinking about it.

When he came to his senses, he saw a scene that puzzled him.

How come the pork belly is slapping itself in the face, each slap louder than the last?

Was this her way of committing suicide? Was she trying to slap herself into a mentally impaired state?

Chapter 102 Agree

Seeing her recklessly slapping herself, Lai quickly reached out and grabbed her wrist to stop her mindless action.

"Pork belly, be rational, wake up!"

"You can tell me anything that's on your mind!"

"Don't you understand that our bodies and hair are given to us by our parents, and we dare not damage them?"

"Aren't we good friends? We can overcome any obstacle, so why did you choose to self-harm?".CoM

"How can you do this to repay your mother for raising and nurturing you!"

Lai's tone was full of disappointment and frustration, trying to snap her out of it, imagining that she was suffering from a strange illness and had developed a desire to die, even to the point of self-harm.

Self-harm? Me, self-harm?
