Chapter 157 Sleeping Together
Bo Jing glanced at Ji Jiangci, knowing his embarrassment, then took the wet wipe Ji Jiangci offered and walked up to Ye Xi'an: "An'an, wipe your face."

Ye Xi'an looked at the wet wipes he handed over, then at Yi Yang and Lin Zhijing making the bed, and Ji Jiangci standing to the side with his gaze elsewhere. She felt an indescribable awkwardness in the air.

Everyone else is busy, but she's already getting ready to wash up and rest. Isn't that a bit too lazy?

But Bo Jing kept raising his hand to help her wipe it, and Ye Xi'an couldn't refuse, so she took the wet wipe and said, "I can do it myself."

"I'll do it. Other people's wives have their husbands wipe their faces."

"Hehehe, alright then."

Ye Xi'an could only stand obediently and let Bo Jing wipe her face. To be honest, it was quite nice to have someone make the bed and wash her up without her having to move.

Yi Yang quickly spread out several thin blankets. He patted the blankets, and the next second he crawled in. Once the bed was warm, he lifted a corner of the blanket and called out, "Wife, get in bed quickly!"

"Okay, here we come."

Ye Xi'an suppressed her guilt for not having done anything and quickly crawled into bed, where the comfortable warmth immediately enveloped her petite body.

She sighed, "Yiyang, you're so warm!"

Yi Yang blushed at Ye Xi'an's somewhat ambiguous words: "Oh, wife, don't tease me like that, it'll make me feel embarrassed."

"When did I provoke you?" Ye Xi'an lay in bed, feeling both amused and exasperated by Yi Yang's words. All she had said was that he was really hot; how could that have provoked her?

"You're just provoking her, look how red my face is! That's proof!"

Ye Xi'an: ... Can this really be used as evidence?

Lin Zhijing, who was standing to the side wiping her face with a wet wipe, glanced at Yi Yang. Her beautiful phoenix eyes narrowed imperceptibly. This naive and innocent girl has a little bit of cunning.

"Alright, I'm not going to argue with you. You should all get into bed soon, it's freezing outside."

Bo Jing and the others nodded. Although they were not afraid of this level of cold, no one would refuse to sleep with Ye Xi'an.

Ye Xi'an lay in the middle, with Bo Jing and Yi Yang lying on either side of him. Further to the sides were Lin Zhijing and Ji Jiangci.

It wasn't that Lin Zhijing didn't want to sleep next to Ye Xi'an, but rather that his beast form was a snake, which had a very low body temperature, and he was afraid that Ye Xi'an would get cold, so he voluntarily gave up his spot.

As for Ji Jiangci, who had the highest body temperature, he was worried that his appearance would offend Ye Xi'an, so he didn't try to get close to her.

Although the bed was large, the area covered by blankets was small. When the five people lay down, they were almost shoulder to shoulder and leg to leg.

The scents of different masculinities mingled together—some crisp, some gentle, some metallic, and some like sunshine—enveloping Ye Xi'an.

Ye Xi'an's body stiffened slightly. This was the first time she had slept so close to four males. She could even feel Bo Jing's slight tension on her left and Yi Yang's careful breathing on her right.

However, this somewhat restrained sleeping posture created a gap between the two, through which the warmth escaped and cold air rushed in.

I felt a little embarrassed, but it was just too cold.

"cold."

Her words were like a signal.

The next second, Yi Yang almost immediately moved closer to her; his body temperature was high, like a small heater.

Bo Jing relaxed his body, turned to the side, and with a slightly flushed face, gently wrapped his arm around Ye Xi'an's waist, pulling her closer to him.

And so, in a strange state of crowdedness and shared body temperature, they spent their first night on Dreamweaver. The days that followed seemed to be a repetition of that night.

The days on Dreamweaver Star weren't too unbearable; the sunlight, though not scorching, dispelled the chill of the nights. They collected various ores and vegetation as required by their mission.

A month passed by in the blink of an eye.

The initial awkwardness and stiffness were gradually replaced by habit. Even Ye Xi'an, who was never used to sleeping with others, now felt no burden at all sleeping with four people.

But new problems arose. After everyone got to know each other, the initial restraint and patience disappeared, and they started complaining.

"Bo Jing, can you please stop moving your feet?" Lin Zhijing complained in the darkness.

He already disliked high temperatures, and Bo Jing kept crowding towards him, his feet burning hot like boiling water. If Ye Xi'an hadn't been there, he would have kicked him long ago.

Bo Jing's voice was sleepy and impatient: "The place is only so big, how would I know I'd run into you?"

"You always squeeze in my direction!"

"Then why don't you switch places with Ji Jiangci?"

Ji Jiangci's voice rang out, tinged with helplessness: "Stop making noise, An'an isn't asleep yet."

The argument subsided instantly; their mouths stopped talking, but their eyes were still glaring at each other.

Ye Xi'an, standing in the middle, could clearly feel the subtle adjustments made by the bodies on both sides, each trying to give her more space, even though that space was minimal.

Ji Jiangci was the quietest one; he always occupied the outermost position closest to the wall, as if he were isolating himself.

But Ye Xi'an could occasionally sense that when she shivered slightly from the cold, the blanket on the side closest to Ji Jiangci would be subtly tucked a little closer to her.

That evening, they did a final count of their harvest, confirming that all the tasks they had been assigned had been completed.

"Finally... I can go back."

Yi Yang breathed a long sigh of relief, his face beaming with undisguised joy. But when he thought that his superpower had not improved this time, the joy vanished.

Sigh, everyone says that advancing to level two is easy, but why hasn't his ability shown any signs of progress?

He looked at Ye Xi'an, "An'an, we'll be able to go back to the Main God Star soon, it's warm there."

Ye Xi'an also breathed a sigh of relief. The past month's experience had been too fantastical for her: "Well, it'll be fine once we get back."

Ji Jiangci then began packing his things, categorizing his gathering tools and daily necessities: "Everyone, please organize your belongings and make sure nothing is left behind."

"By the way, we also need to figure out a way to dig out this Marshal's Mansion built with Dream Stone."

It took a lot of effort for everyone to smash the marshal's mansion underground into pieces and carry it out.

Fortunately, Ye Xi'an's little world was big enough, otherwise it really wouldn't have been able to take anything else with it.

"Aren't we being too greedy? Let's leave some for Dreamweaver."

Lin Zhijing: "Just leave one piece. Bury it deep, and over time, new dream stones will naturally emerge."

Although Lin Zhijing said so, Ye Xi'an still felt that it was better to leave more. So, in addition to burying a dream stone in the original place, Ye Xi'an buried some more in other places, hoping that the dream stones of the Dream Weaver Star could be formed quickly.
