“Brother Feng?”
She turned around to see two figures, especially the tall youth.
Lin Xinyuan’s almond eyes widened, and her gaze brightened instantly.
She ran over regardless.
Seeing Zeng Yan, Li Tang walked to his side in surprise.
“Brother Yan, why are you here!”
“Just taking a look. Look at how melancholy Sun Ce is every day; his ball game is terrible now. Anyone who didn’t know would think he’s some Melancholy Prince.”
Zeng Yan glanced inside the open ground floor and made a joke.
‘It seems so…’ Li Tang nodded in agreement.
After all, Liu Qingyan was like that sometimes too…
‘If it really was a misunderstanding, all they can hope for now is that the two of them can explain things clearly this time instead of remaining so dejected…’
After thinking this, Li Tang hugged Zeng Yan’s arm and leaned against him intimately.
‘Fortunately, Brother Yan and I are already happily together…’
Seeing the girl like this, Zeng Yan found it a bit funny. He gave her head a doting look and let her hold on.
Then, their gaze shifted toward the other side.
They saw the man and woman who had been beside them moments ago had already quietly walked away.
Their joined hands swayed back and forth, appearing somewhat cheerful.
“Why don’t we leave first? I reckon they’ll be a while.”
Zeng Yan pinched Li Tang’s cheek affectionately and gestured toward the open ground floor with his chin.
“Okay.”
Li Tang naturally didn’t refuse and followed her boyfriend to the other side.
After all, there was no point in them being anxious about Sun Ce and Liu Qingyan’s situation…
And so, Qin Nanfeng and Zeng Yan tacitly chose to part ways for the time being, each taking their girlfriend—
They didn’t stop walking until they reached a long stone bench. Lin Xinyuan was led to sit down by the handsome youth.
Qin Nanfeng looked at the petite girl who snuggled into his arms as soon as they sat down.
This girl was acting exceptionally affectionate today.
Even though there didn’t seem to be anyone around, occasional couples would still pass by.
Usually, the girl wouldn’t dare to be so proactive with him in a place like this…
But soon, Qin Nanfeng seemed to realize the reason and immediately understood why his girl was acting this way.
The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously into a strange arc.
‘Well, this was something I should have been doing anyway, but it ended up pushing my goals even further.’
‘This feeling… is actually unexpectedly good…’
‘Xiaoyuan, oh Xiaoyuan… you’d better hurry… Your man is starting to get a bit impatient…’
Interest and patience flickered in the youth’s eyes, but his thoughts drifted aimlessly as his smile deepened.
The person in his arms rubbed her head against Qin Nanfeng’s chest for who knows how long before she managed to calm the overflowing affection in her heart.
Propping herself up from that broad chest, she shyly and anxiously raised her head to steal a glance.
When she saw the playfulness in Qin Nanfeng’s eyes, her gaze dropped again in shame.
But before Lin Xinyuan could relax, she suddenly heard two sets of footsteps accompanied by whispers, drawing closer and closer.
Instantly, her neck stiffened. She didn’t dare make a move; her body trembled uneasily as fear and embarrassment spread through her mind…
“They’re gone, it’s fine.”
Seeing her shrinking like this, Qin Nanfeng caringly rubbed her head. “Besides… don’t be afraid, I’m always here.”
The girl’s heart jolted, and her soul felt as sweet as honey. After a long while, she squeezed out a single word. “Mm…”
After saying that, she seemed even more dependent on Qin Nanfeng, pressing closer to his body as if she didn’t care about the heat.
“Um… Brother Feng…”
It was a long time before she showed a hesitant expression.
“What is it? Just say what’s on your mind. I won’t eat you… Heh…”
As Qin Nanfeng spoke, a dark light flashed in his eyes. He thought for a moment and then chuckled.
“Does Xiaoyuan not even have the confidence of a girlfriend? Sigh… that’s really… sigh…”
The moment those words came out, Lin Xinyuan was no longer calm.
Her timid expression changed instantly, and she raised her head to look at him again.
Her small face was conflicted yet stubborn. “I do not! I definitely have con… confidence…”
By the end, Lin Xinyuan felt embarrassed as she realized what she was saying.
After all, saying something that was essentially an “I love you” confession was still a bit awkward for her.
But she gritted her teeth and forced herself to finish.
As soon as she was done, she shrank back into Qin Nanfeng’s arms.
“Mm, I see. Xiaoyuan is the boldest, after all.”
For a moment, Lin Xinyuan was speechless.
Even though he was praising her, it felt strange, as if he were teasing… or secretly mocking her…
Anyway, there was a feeling he was implying something…
It made Lin Xinyuan immediately recall the embarrassing things she had experienced.
‘The Dream Realm…’
‘The washroom… the bed…’
‘Ugh…’
At the thought of this, her fair face turned even redder, and she unconsciously buried herself deeper.
‘Bold…’
‘Could he be talking about that?’
‘But how is that possible? That Yellow-Haired Brat definitely couldn’t know…’
‘I must be overthinking… definitely…’
‘After all, it’s impossible no matter how I think about it. I was always alone when I did those things; how could this guy know…?’
With these thoughts, Lin Xinyuan’s emotions gradually calmed.
Another moment passed. Once her breathing steadied, the girl’s eyes flickered, and she finally continued the original topic.
“Brother Feng… about that matter… thank you…”
She hugged Qin Nanfeng’s lean waist tightly and murmured softly.
Qin Nanfeng chuckled in a frivolous tone.
He pinched the girl’s incredibly soft waist and restlessly kneaded it a few times.
Finally, with deep meaning, he reached inside the hem of her shirt…
The meaning couldn’t be clearer…
“Oh… ah…”
Feeling the sensation from the youth’s fingertips, Lin Xinyuan couldn’t help but let out a soft cry.
Her body followed with a bout of uncontrollable twitching.
She quickly covered her mouth to stop herself from making any more of those strange noises.
Shamefully and urgently brushing away that ‘Salty Pig Hand,’ Lin Xinyuan breathed a sigh of relief only after the strange sensation faded.
However, she soon reacted to the Yellow-Haired Brat’s words, and her mind went blank.
“Huh?”
‘What was that?’
‘Logically, shouldn’t you say something like “It’s what I should do”?’
‘And then make me all touched?’
‘Why are you deviating from the script again and saying… this kind of thing!’
‘Ugh… but… how am I supposed to answer…’
‘What should I do…’
Lin Xinyuan was stunned. She let go helplessly, wanting to flee immediately.
Because she still didn’t know how to answer this question…
‘That damnable Yellow-Haired Brat…’
‘He really is a persistent delinquent! Thinking about this kind of thing every day…’
‘But… I… I…’
The throbbing from her body could deceive others, but it couldn’t deceive Lin Xinyuan herself.
The more she thought about it, the more panicked she became.
In her shame, she hurriedly tried to leave his side first.
Then she tragically found her waist was being held. That power bound her like Mount Tai; she couldn’t struggle free at all.
“Why aren’t you answering?”
Qin Nanfeng deliberately kneaded her again, causing Lin Xinyuan’s soft body to tremble once more.
Fortunately, she was already covering her mouth and could only make muffled “woo-woo” sounds.
She was now both ashamed and annoyed and really didn’t want to answer, but the large hand gripping her waist was like a hovering needle, forcing her to submit.
“I don’t know…”
“You don’t know… fine. Then I’ll wait for Xiaoyuan. I’ll wait until Xiaoyuan is willing…”
The youth’s chuckle was as clear as the low sound of a flute, echoing in Lin Xinyuan’s ears, exceptionally teasing.
But she didn’t dare respond, remaining silent.
Qin Nanfeng was also silent, simply holding the girl’s petite body gently.
His large hand had behaved and was now lightly patting her thin back.
Though they were embarrassed by the previous topic, it didn’t affect their intimacy in the least.
In the absolute silence, the two shared this moment of tranquility…
“Brother Feng…”
After a period of peace, Lin Xinyuan quietly looked up and began to worry about Liu Qingyan.
“What do you think is going on with those two… could it be…”
“I don’t know.”
Qin Nanfeng immediately cut her off quite bluntly, leaving Lin Xinyuan staring at him blankly.
Shaking his head gently, he raised an eyebrow.
“Since someone doesn’t know, I don’t know either… Don’t you think that’s fair?”
“You…” Lin Xinyuan gave Qin Nanfeng a weak glare and turned her face away in frustration. “Fine, don’t tell me!”
“Jerk! Hmph…”
Watching the girl’s huffy appearance, Qin Nanfeng chuckled and didn’t plan on explaining.
‘After all, other people’s business is their own. I don’t know, and I don’t want my Xiaoyuan to worry too much.’
‘We’ve already done enough. The rest will have to be left to them…’
