Romance Variety Show: The aloof and beautiful fourth female lead is always coveted.

Chen Yuze is 1.9 meters tall with broad, thick shoulders. Even when he squats down, he looks like a small mountain, a very imposing figure.

This sight made Bai Nianchu's forehead twitch.

"Need not."

She kicked him, signaling him to get up quickly.

Chen Yuze obediently got up, his face filled with resentment.

It's like missing out on some big prize or special offer.

As for why Chen Yuze wasn't allowed to carry it...

First, Bai Nianchu wasn't so tired that she couldn't walk; second, Bai Nianchu was aware that Ling Yan had followed them and witnessed them kissing.

Although she had her back to Ling Yan and there was a certain distance between them.

But she has the system, a natural cheat code and broadcaster, so Ling Yan's every move can't escape its eyes.

Already deeply traumatized, seeing Chen Yuze carrying her back must have felt like the sky was falling for Ling Yan.

When I returned to Love House, the lights were still on.

Bai Nianchu pushed open the door and paused for a moment.

She saw Ling Yan sitting on the edge of the bed, as quiet as a statue.

The posture Bai Nianchu saw before leaving the house is still the same posture he is now, as if he had never left this small house.

Chen Yuze walked in from behind her, his gaze sweeping over Ling Yan's lowered eyes, and he chuckled inwardly.

Okay, you're really good at pretending.

Since Ling Yan pretended not to know, Chen Yuze naturally wouldn't take the initiative to expose her.

In situations like this, the one who can't help but jump up and down first is actually the one who has lost their composure.

"...Where did you go?"

Seeing them return, Ling Yan asked a question.

If you don't listen carefully, you won't notice the hoarseness in his voice at all.

"Just taking a walk, found a place to sit for a while." Chen Yuze couldn't stand Ling Yan's pretentious attitude, and retorted sarcastically.

"If you're so concerned, why didn't you come over and chat with us earlier?"

They practically had "I'm watching you pretend" etched on their faces.

"..." Ling Yan didn't speak again, turning his gaze elsewhere.

He saw it all from outside.

He knew that stalking others was a disgusting thing that could not be easily forgiven.

But when he and Bai Nianchu returned from the clinic, it was already 10 p.m., and Chen Yuze still wanted to invite her out for a walk, which made him unable to sit still.

So Ling Yan followed far behind them.

Until I stumbled upon the scene of Chen Yuze and Bai Nianchu kissing passionately under the chandelier...

He was struck dumb.

He had exhausted all his reason and strength by not rushing over to interrupt them.

In this situation, there is no other way but to pretend to be blind and stupid.

He already did something wrong today.

How dare you jump out again and interrupt Bai Nianchu's private meeting with someone else?

Therefore, Ling Yan could only leave quietly.

When they return, pretend you know nothing.

*

The two beds in Love House fit together seamlessly.

The bed is spacious enough for three people to roll around on.

Neither of the men wanted to sleep next to the other, so Chen Yuze chose the left side by the window, Ling Yan slept on the right side by the wall, and Bai Nianchu lay between them.

After the lights were turned off, the room was plunged into darkness.

"Good night."

Bai Nianchu was the first to close her eyes.

Chen Yuze and Ling Yan also said goodnight to her.

But their eyes were still open; they couldn't bear to go to sleep.

Chen Yuze turned his head, his gaze falling on Bai Nianchu's blurry outline. There was no light in the room, so he couldn't see her face clearly, only vaguely sensing her location.

He pretended to turn over and moved very lightly toward Bai Nianchu.

The closer you get to her, the more pronounced the fragrance in the air becomes.

Chen Yuze took a deep breath silently.

Because they shared a bathroom, he could tell at a sniff that the fragrance wasn't just from the shower gel, but also from Bai Nianchu's natural body scent—a refreshing blend of white frost and a hint of floral fragrance that smelled incredibly pleasant.

On the other side, Ling Yan was also secretly smelling her.

Ling Yan dared not move rashly, afraid of waking Bai Nianchu, but he couldn't help but move closer to her.

The familiar cool fragrance wafted into my nostrils.

Ling Yan felt like a greedy cat.

He twitched his nose, inhaling her scent intensely, like he was smoking catnip.

That special fragrance was like a fine net, slowly enveloping him.

Just smelling her scent made me feel at ease, and the emotions that had been building up all night suddenly eased.

Ling Yan slowly closed his eyes.

He had thought he would have trouble sleeping tonight.

After all, so many things have happened, and my emotions have fluctuated greatly.

He genuinely believed he would stay awake until dawn.

But my eyelids are getting heavier and heavier...

Within just ten minutes, Ling Yan fell into a deep sleep.

Chen Yuze is the same.

Of the three, Bai Nianchu was the one who couldn't sleep soundly.

If anyone around her makes any noise, her brain will automatically send her a warning signal.

She opened her eyes around 2 a.m.

Her left hand was held tightly by Chen Yuze's five fingers, as if afraid she would run away.

She didn't know how this man could find the exact location of her palm while half asleep and half awake.

On the other side, Bai Nianchu's right hand was also occupied by Ling Yan.

He was very close, his arms wrapped around hers like a drowning person clinging to a piece of driftwood at sea.

His forehead, like Chen Yuze's, rested on her shoulder, his breathing light and long.

From this perspective—

One of them is like a large, hot dog; the other is like a clingy, insecure cat.

Bai Nianchu tried to move her fingers, but couldn't break free from Chen Yuze's large hand.

She tried pulling her arm away again.

Ling Yan trembled uneasily in his sleep, and instead hugged her even tighter.

Bai Nianchu: "..."

Even though there was plenty of room on both sides, the two men squeezed in next to her to sleep.

They were like two magnets stuck to her, and no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't separate them.

……never mind.

Bai Nianchu slowly relaxed her tense shoulders, forcing herself to suppress her instinctive defensive reaction little by little, closed her eyes, and let sleepiness wash over her again.

When I woke up again, the sky was already beginning to lighten.

A low, husky voice reached Bai Nianchu's ears.

"It's still early, I'll sleep a little longer."

It was Chen Yuze speaking, his voice carrying the languidness and magnetism of someone who had just woken up.

Seeing that she opened her eyes, he not only didn't let go of her hand, but also unconsciously rubbed it against the back of her hand.

Ling Yan also woke up.

The moment he opened his eyes, he froze completely.

—I was completely startled by my own posture.

His arm was tightly wrapped around Bai Nianchu's right hand, and he was almost pressed against her body, with his knees touching her legs.

This was the first time Ling Yan had realized that her sleeping posture was bad.

I'm perfectly fine when I sleep alone.

Why do I feel like a kitten that hasn't been weaned when I sleep with Bai Nianchu?

Fortunately, Bai Nianchu was sleeping on her back; he was just hugging his arms.

If it's face-to-face.

He'll most likely roll into her arms, hug her waist tightly, and then bury his head in her...

Ling Yan abruptly broke his train of thought.

No, he can't think about it anymore.

In that case...

They really are kittens that haven't been weaned yet.
