These Dangerous Girls Placed Me Into Jeopardy - Volume 3 - Chapter 59

Chapter 59

I was just saying while I didn’t expect her to take it seriously .

It would be fine if it were an ordinary lullaby . However, it would be like ‘Tan Te’ (it means uneasy, which is a fast-paced wordless fusion song by Gong Linna, using various standard voices from Chinese opera along with imitations of traditional Chinese instruments) if it was in ‘Ah-Language’!

Therefore, let me try to refuse her in a more tactful way .

“Um, well, you don’t have to sing . It’s almost eight o’clock now, and we want to go back as soon as possible . ”

After hearing what I said, Auntie Qing lowered her head slightly and said in a depressed tone .

“Yes, yes . . . As you said, it is not the right time to sing a lullaby for now . . . ”

Was it really necessary to be so disappointed? Was her desire to sing such a lullaby so strong . . .

I had no choice . . .

“Well, if you can sing one while we are walking so that we wouldn’t waste much time, we’d like to listen to it . ”

“Okay! No problem! No problem!”

After hearing my compromise, Auntie Qing happily clapped her hands and agreed repeatedly with excitement .

“Wow, great! I haven’t heard you sing for a long time . I will count down from three, and then A’ma, you can begin to sing . Meanwhile, we shall march towards my home . How does that sound?”

Regarding Li Nai’s proposal, we surely had no objections .

Then Li Nai began to count down .

I hurriedly walked to the front of the group in fear of Auntie Qing’s terrible singing .

Following the countdown was her singing .

The euphonious melody got to me from behind, setting my soul free from the noise and irritability and taking it to a pure land .

“Oh . . . ”

It actually sounded nice .

Although there was only one word as for the lyrics, the melody was rather tortuous . The melodious female voice became a little high-pitched but not harsh . Also, the song was mellow and mellifluous, which totally enthralled me .

But that wat not the point . The point was that I seemed to have heard such a special lullaby before . . .

Although I couldn’t say it was particularly familiar, it was at least not very unfamiliar . In other words, this was not my first time to hear this lullaby .

This strange feeling made me stop and stand still .

Then, her singing rang in my head again, but it no longer only had monotonous syllables . Instead, it came with clear lyrics .

‘Listening to me singing at night, you fall asleep soundly .

You smile sweetly and forget your fear while dreaming .

I gaze at you while singing; the moon casts a bright light over the earth .

Though smiling, you recall the past and cry softly .

Sleep, sleep . Close your eyes quietly .

Sleep, sleep . Let me soothe your sadness . ’

“ . . . ”

Why could I remember the lyrics of this song?

Her singing made my heart throb and captured my deepest memories . . .

Several people walked past me . I also wanted to move ahead, but I felt it was so slow .

The whole world had slowed down . . . Thinking acceleration was unexpectedly activated automatically, which sped up my thoughts .

Was it to lengthen the duration of singing?

But in this slow-down world, the singing I heard was also lengthened infinitely . . .

However, the singing did not stop and continued to echo around with the next paragraph of lyrics .

‘I weave warmth in the darkness and you fall asleep .

(Sleeping in your warm embrace, I forget my sadness . )

It is snug because of you; stars are reflected on the sea .

(It is so quiet in your arms; my memories are buried deep down . )

Go to sleep; I quietly get close to your heart .

(Fall asleep, I let my heart go with you . )

“If possible, I hope it is me who fall asleep in the sea . . . ”

(If possible, I hope to fall asleep with you in the sea . )’

My own voice chimed in halfway and finished singing this lullaby alone with me .

It was that ghost . It even knew this song . . .

Did you pry into my memory?

Strange, what feeling was this . . .

Sad . . . so sad . . .

Suddenly I fell into a grief that was hard to get rid of, which made my spirit fluctuate violently and the thinking acceleration also stopped consequently .

“Jun Cheng?”

“Ah, sorry . I seemed to be a little fascinated by it . ”

When I came to myself, I found Lan Hua waving her hand in front of me to attract my attention .

I had disapproved of her singing at the very beginning, but now I fell into a trance for indulging in the lullaby . I was really willful and arbitrary .

Though having heard my explanation, Lan Hua’s surprise still could be seen on her face . She pointed at my cheek and said with a strange expression .

“No, well, Jun Cheng, you . . . ”

“Mm-Hmm?”

What was wrong with me? Why was she looking at me like that?

“Junjun, why did you cry?”

At this time, Moe Bing also got closer . She took her handkerchief out from her pocket . Frowning and worried, she tried to wipe my tears off for me .

“Um?”

Did I cry?

Seeing Moe Bing looking at me with concerns, I reached out and touched my cheek, and I actually felt my tears .

How weird it was! I didn’t feel I was crying at all, and I didn’t even feel tears flowing down my cheeks .

But the truth was that I was indeed crying .

Why?

So weird . . . Could it be that the inexplicable sad feeling just now resonated with my body?

But why did I feel sad . . .

Xue Qing silently approached me and held my waist; Yuhui also stood behind me, caressing my back .

Hey, what was that? I was not a baby . Don’t be like this, which made me feel so ashamed .

“Nothing . Maybe it is because the lullaby sung by Auntie Qing is so beautiful . ”

I quickly wiped off the tears with my arms, and there was no tear in my eyes anymore . Maybe when I realized I was crying, I stopped shedding tears .

Why had I known the lyrics of this lullaby . . .

Besides, Auntie Qing who could sing this lullaby . . . had deliberately covered her head so that I couldn’t see her name or title . . . Who on earth was she . . .

I wanted to turn around to take a look at Auntie Qing for I had a feeling that as long as I could see her face now, I could obtain a definite answer, or I could confirm the guess in my heart .

However, in the end, I still did not dare to look back, and Auntie Qing did not stop me . either .
