Midnight! The moon was bright and the stars were few!
In Villa No. 1 of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, a man and a woman entered the room almost one after the other.
"It's too late now… it's too late to go outside, I'll have to make do here tonight." "
But let me tell you, Qian Renshang… you have to behave yourself tonight.
You're not a child anymore, you're not allowed to see things you shouldn't!"
Gu Yuena started nagging as soon as she entered, while Qian Renshang nodded frantically behind her.
They were both exhausted from the battle that night, and having chatted so late outside, they were really sleepy.
So Qian Renshang suggested that Gu Yuena rest at his place, and Gu Yuena agreed after a moment's thought… after all, Qian Renshang had slept like that when he was a child.
Of course, most importantly, Gu Yuena still considered Qian Renshang like a child.
"Okay, Sister Nana... You can sleep on the bed tonight, I'll just make a makeshift bed on the floor,"
Qian Renshang suggested.
Gu Yuena nodded and then asked,
"By the way... where's your shower?"
Qian Renshang pointed in a certain direction and thoughtfully gave Gu Yuena her pajamas!
Qian Renshang is about 1.85 meters tall, while Gu Yuena is about 1.75 meters tall, and the pajamas fit her just barely!
Gu Yuena was about to step into the bathroom with the pajamas when she seemed to remember something and turned back to stare at Qian Renshang with a warning look.
"Don't peek, you know?"
Qian Renshang: "???"
"Sister Nana, what kind of person do you take me for... How could I possibly peek at you!"
Qian Renshang cried out in protest, and Gu Yuena also defended herself somewhat embarrassedly.
"Isn't it because I'm afraid you've gone astray all these years?... Okay, I'm going to take a shower first, you can shower later."
Gu Yuena turned and rushed into the bathroom, holding the soft nightgown in her hand.
She turned her head slightly and rushed into the bathroom like a light, colorful cloud.
As the bathroom door closed softly with a "bang," the sound of running water quickly came from inside the bathroom.
The sound was particularly clear in the quiet room, like a gentle melody.
Qian Renshang sat quietly in the chair in the room, his once calm gaze involuntarily drawn to the frosted bathroom door.
Listening to the continuous sound of running water, his heart was stirred as if by an invisible hand, and he unconsciously began to indulge in fantasies.
He imagined Gu Yuena behind the door, her smooth, delicate skin gleaming alluringly under the warm water, her graceful curves appearing and disappearing in the misty steam, every inch filled with endless temptation.
As he thought, Qian Renshang's face flushed crimson, like the sunset, growing ever redder, his breathing becoming rapid and heavy, as if the surrounding air itself had become scorching.
Suddenly, he felt a warm sensation in his nose.
Reaching down to touch it, he found his fingertips stained with bright red—he had a nosebleed.
He frantically searched for tissues, his clumsy movements making him appear somewhat disheveled.
He inwardly berated himself for such inappropriate thoughts, but his mind was like a wild horse, impossible to rein in.
"Qian Renshang... what are you thinking about?"
Qian Renshang cursed himself inwardly, then forced himself to stop thinking nonsense.
Fifteen minutes later, the bathroom door slowly opened, and Gu Yuena quickly emerged.
She wore a white nightgown, its soft, smooth material clinging to her body, accentuating her graceful figure.
Her delicate little feet peeked out from under the hem of the nightgown, as if sculpted from white jade, small and adorable.
Her silver hair, still damp, cascaded down her sides, a few water droplets clinging to it, shimmering under the light.
Her skin, flushed from her recent bath, resembled a ripe apple, fresh and alluring.
Her already exquisite face, now enveloped in the steam, gained an even more ethereal beauty, like a fairy stepping out of a painting, or a sprite from a dream.
Gu Yuena seemed even more beautiful after her bath.
Qian Renshang's gaze was fixed on Gu Yuena the moment she stepped out of the bathroom, and he froze on the spot.
His eyes widened, his mouth slightly agape, completely stunned by the beautiful sight before him.
"So beautiful!"
Qian Renshang exclaimed inwardly, feeling his heart pounding in his chest.
Remembering the embarrassing situation of his nosebleed from his earlier daydreaming, and fearing another embarrassment, he instantly turned and rushed into the bathroom like a gust of wind.
Gu Yuena was somewhat bewildered by Qian Renshang's sudden action.
She frowned slightly, her eyes filled with confusion, not understanding why Qian Renshang would react so strangely.
"What's this kid up to?"
...
Night quietly descended, like a huge black curtain slowly unfolding.
The two quickly lay down, but Gu Yuena lay comfortably on the bed, the soft mattress seeming like a gentle embrace tailor-made for her.
Qian Renshang, on the other hand, had made a makeshift bed on the floor, the blankets beneath him rather thin.
He lay flat, his eyes fixed on the ceiling, his thoughts drifting in the quiet night.
Moonlight streamed through the cracks in the window, casting silver streaks on the floor.
Gu Yuena turned over in bed, making a soft sound.
Hearing the noise, Qian Renshang felt a ripple in his heart, but he tried to calm himself down.
The night grew deeper, and only the even breathing of the two could be heard in the room.
Suddenly, Gu Yuena spoke.
"Qian Renshang, are you asleep?"
Qian Renshang's brows twitched, but he didn't speak. Gu Yuena asked again.
"Um... is the floor cold? Do you want to sleep on the bed?"
"Really?"
Qian Renshang instantly sat up, his face full of excitement!
Gu Yuena rolled her eyes at him and sneered.
"Just kidding, I just wanted to ask if you were asleep... Qian Renshang, you're so naughty!"
Qian Renshang scratched his head and didn't speak. Sister Nana is so naughty!
Gu Yuena was secretly pleased.
This kid is really fun to tease!
Next, the two of them seemed to behave themselves and prepare to sleep... After some time,
Gu Yuena suddenly opened her eyes and tiptoed to her feet.
She needed to go to the bathroom!
She got up to go to the bathroom, but Qian Renshang was lying on the floor as if he were asleep, so she had to tiptoe without making a sound!
She carefully stepped over Qian Renshang... but quickly froze.
"This kid... he's asleep, and he seems even more well-behaved. He's quite handsome too."
Gu Yuena suddenly looked at Qian Renshang's face and found him truly handsome.
His skin was like a woman's, and his eyelashes were long.
If he wore women's clothes... he might be the envy of a whole bunch of girls.
The more Gu Yuena looked, the more interesting she found it.
Her eyes were full of curiosity and excitement.
She even lowered her head slightly, leaning closer to look, her focused expression as if the whole world had shrunk to just what was in front of her.
Just as she was engrossed in looking at him, Qian Renshang suddenly rolled over, the movement swift and sudden.
His body moved the blanket, creating a small storm, causing Gu Yuena to lose her balance instantly.
"No... wait..."
Gu Yuena cried out in a panic, her voice filled with fear and helplessness.
However, everything happened too fast.
She lost her balance and fell straight down.
Her body, like a light petal, landed directly in Qian Renshang's arms.
*Pop!*
Their lips touched, and Gu Yuena froze!
Her eyes widened in shock, and she saw a pair of clear, bright blue eyes staring at her, twinkling like stars in the night sky.
Their faces were so close they could almost count each other's eyelashes.
She could even feel the other's hot breath, the warmth of their breaths mingling, making the surrounding air feel scorching.
