Am I at the Age Where I Start Getting Interested in Girls?

"What should we do? Should we keep looking?" Lin Ye asked.

Qian Renxue sighed inwardly, feeling exhausted from the search. She thought to herself that she would just make Lin Ye sleep on the sofa later: "One room is fine. We'll take this one."

"Very well, here are the key cards for the two of you," the receptionist said, handing them over with both hands.

The two took the key cards and headed toward their room.

Suddenly, the atmosphere became a bit subtle.

Lin Ye and Qian Renxue both felt inexplicably strange, their moods growing slightly tense.

"We aren't going to do anything, so... why am I nervous?" Qian Renxue's face flushed slightly as she reminded him, "Hey, you sleep on the sofa later, and I'll sleep on the bed, got it?"

"Fine, fine, fine. I'll sleep on the sofa."

As it turned out, once they entered the room, they discovered that this hotel's standard room didn't even have a sofa.

This was awkward; the two stood there frozen in place.

Qian Renxue complained, "What kind of lousy hotel is this? It doesn't even have a sofa."

Lin Ye suggested tentatively, "How about... we each sleep on one side?"

"No... absolutely not! I refuse!" Qian Renxue rejected the idea decisively.

Setting aside whether she liked Lin Ye or not, even if she did, they weren't even a couple. How could they possibly share a bed?

A man and a woman alone in a room was already bad enough.

"The bed is so big. You sleep on your side, I sleep on mine; it won't affect anything."

"No! You aren't a child anymore. What if you... you can't control yourself and try something improper tonight!" Qian Renxue said, her face turning red.

"No, am I that kind of person?" Lin Ye said, looking speechless.

"Who knows! An... anyway, it's just not happening!"

"Fine, fine. You take the bed, I'll just make do on the floor for the night," Lin Ye said with a helpless shrug.

"Then... I'm going to take a shower first."

Qian Renxue entered the bathroom, and Lin Ye lay down on the floor.

Because it was a tiled floor, it was ice-cold, and with the winter temperatures being quite low, it was truly uncomfortable for Lin Ye to sleep there.

However, listening to the sound of the water from Qian Renxue's shower, images of her washing up inside automatically surfaced in Lin Ye's mind, and his body inexplicably began to feel a bit feverish.

"Wait, when did I start having these lewd thoughts..."

In truth, Qian Renxue was also feeling quite shy inside. Thinking that Lin Ye was just outside the room, separated by only a door, she knew the sounds would still be audible.

Half an hour later.

Qian Renxue emerged from her bath.

She had changed into a sexy gold lace nightgown. It was held up by only two thin straps, leaving her shoulders almost entirely bare, and a deep scar was clearly visible on her chest.

The hem was extremely short, leaving her long, snow-white legs almost completely exposed, with a few undried water droplets still clinging to them, making her look incredibly alluring and sexy.

They say that a person looks three times better after a bath.

Qian Renxue, already stunningly beautiful, undoubtedly made Lin Ye's eyes light up at this moment.

Although he saw Qian Renxue every day, this was the first time he had seen her just after a bath, and in her sleepwear at that.

Lin Ye's gaze couldn't help but be drawn to her. He swallowed hard, realizing: "It seems I've reached... reached the age where I'm interested in girls..."

"Are dopamine and male hormones starting to affect my body and launching an assault on my brain?"

Lin Ye could feel it; he was stirred.

Feeling Lin Ye's burning gaze, Qian Renxue also felt embarrassed: "Why... why are you staring at me? Stop looking!"

"It's nothing, let's sleep." Lin Ye quickly withdrew his gaze and turned his head elsewhere.

"Hey, aren't you going to shower?"

"I'm already sleeping on the floor, what's the point of washing? I'll just sleep like this."

"Oh..."

Qian Renxue stepped forward with her jade-like feet and lay down in the warm covers. But looking at Lin Ye sleeping on the cold floor, she couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy, and the bed was indeed quite large.

If they each lay on one side, there wouldn't be any physical contact.

Qian Renxue struggled internally for a moment, but her heart eventually softened: "Forget it. You're tired from the fierce battle with Zhao Wuji tonight. Come up and sleep on the bed."

"Oh? Aren't you afraid I won't be able to control myself and try something improper tonight?" Lin Ye asked, looking surprised.

Qian Renxue blushed slightly and said, "Tch, you can't beat me anyway. I doubt you have the guts to act on your desires even if you had them!"

"Alright! Then I won't stand on ceremony!"

As Lin Ye spoke, he prepared to take off his shoes and climb onto the bed.

Qian Renxue knelt on her knees, blocking the edge of the bed: "Stop, stop, stop! Go take a shower first!"

"Fine, no problem."

Lin Ye decisively rushed into the bathroom.

Ten minutes later, he walked out after finishing his shower.

He discovered that Qian Renxue had already placed two pillows in the middle, and she said with a serious expression, "The pillows are the boundary. You are not allowed to cross over tonight, got it!"

"Rest assured, I absolutely will not cross over!"

"And...!" Qian Renxue wanted to say more.

Lin Ye interrupted her directly, drawing inferences from the situation, "Don't worry, as long as you don't touch me, I absolutely won't touch you once tonight!"

"I also won't go out of my way to peek at you at night, can you rest easy now?"

"This... this is acceptable, sleep!" Qian Renxue wrapped herself in the quilt and lay down.

"This girl."

Lin Ye chuckled in his heart, turned back the quilt, and lay into the bed as well.

It was very warm!

After all, Qian Renxue had warmed the bed beforehand.

"So fragrant."

After lying down, Lin Ye felt the entire bed was fragrant, and the scent of the young girl's body constantly drifted from within the quilt.

The two of them lay there quietly, the atmosphere quite strange.

There was no communication, yet the relationship between them had drawn closer without them realizing it.

Before long, Qian Renxue had fallen into a deep sleep.

Lin Ye couldn't help but turn his head to look at the sleeping girl.

Gazing at Qian Renxue's tranquil profile in her dreams, he suddenly felt that Qian Renxue, lying there sleeping so quietly, was actually far more moving than usual.

This eight-month journey had made him realize that Qian Renxue seemed to have already secured a place in his heart.

When he blocked that punch from Zhao Wuji for Qian Renxue, Lin Ye had understood clearly that he seemed to have developed a desire to protect her.

Lin Ye shook his head with a smile, and a moment later, he also fell into a deep sleep.

With this sleep.

The two of them slept soundly until dawn.

At this moment, the pillows in the middle had long since vanished.

"Hmm?"

Lin Ye woke up first, dazed and confused. Before he even opened his eyes, he felt as if something soft was pressed against his arm, and something was also weighing down on his legs.

He opened his eyes and instantly became alert: "Holy crap!"

What appeared before his eyes was Qian Renxue's stunningly beautiful face, pressed so close that if he moved even slightly, he might kiss her directly.

She was lying on her side, pressed against Lin Ye.

Her left leg was draped over Lin Ye's legs.

Lin Ye felt no excitement; instead, he felt that something was terribly wrong!

He hurriedly checked the position he was lying in, and upon confirming he was still on his own half of the bed, he let out a long sigh of relief: Phew! Thank goodness, I didn't cross the boundary. If she throws a tantrum later, it has nothing to do with me!
