Sleeping Together or Sleepless?

On this day, just like the previous times, after returning from the mission with Xiao Yan and Xiao Xun'er, Nalan Yanran did not enter a state of cultivation, but instead prepared to rest and take a nap.

After all, it's important to balance work and rest.

Therefore, in her eyes, this should have been just another ordinary day.

However, she had only been lying down and closing her eyes for a short time when an accident occurred.

I can't believe a thief would dare to break into her room through the window!

How can we tolerate this?

So, upon noticing the commotion, she decisively drew her sword!

Nalan Yanran has made up her mind; whoever it is, she will teach them a lesson!

Do you really think her window is so easy to climb over?

However, just as she drew her sword, preparing to strike, a familiar voice rang out, abruptly interrupting her actions.

Through the moonlight shining in from the window, she finally saw clearly who this "little thief" who dared to break into her window was.

The other party was none other than her fiancé Xiao Yan!

At that moment, Nalan Yanran's mind practically stopped working.

She had considered a million possibilities, but she never imagined that Xiao Yan would break into her window!

At this moment, Nalan Yanran had only one thought in her mind.

What should I do now?

And she didn't know whether to retract her gleaming silver sword, which was raised in mid-air, or continue slashing.

Well, the latter probably won't work; she doesn't want to be a widow yet...

Just as Nalan Yanran seemed somewhat at a loss, Xiao Yan had already tiptoed to her side and carefully helped her put the sword back into its sheath.

It wasn't until the warmth of Xiao Yan's palm touched the back of Nalan Yanran's hand that her mind, which had been in complete chaos, finally came back to its senses.

"Xiao Yan, what are you going to do?"

Late at night, in her own room, how could Nalan Yanran not turn into a startled fawn when Xiao Yan suddenly grabbed her hand?

Just as Xiao Yan was grasping Nalan Yanran's hand to help her sheath her sword, she was startled and took a step back.

Seeing Nalan Yanran's reaction, Xiao Yan pretended to show a hurt expression.

"Yanran, do you hate me now?"

Good heavens!

Xiao Yan had been observing and learning the daily "tea ceremony" duels between Xun'er and Nalan Yanran, and he was putting it into practice right away!

"Huh? No, that's not what I meant."

Seeing the expression on Xiao Yan's face, Nalan Yanran immediately panicked.

But given the current situation, she didn't know how to explain it!

It can only be said that Nalan Yanran, who is usually straightforward, was indeed somewhat flustered in this situation.

It's said that when a woman gets aroused, men have nothing to do with her.

But once a man gets into a flirtatious mood, even a woman can't resist!

Anyway, Xiao Yan found Nalan Yanran's current appearance quite amusing.

He had never seen this side of Nalan Yanran before!

"Then, Yanran, could you let me stay for the night?"

Upon noticing the somewhat flustered look in Nalan Yanran's eyes, Xiao Yan immediately seized the opportunity to press his advantage.

"Take you in for the night? What does that mean?"

Upon hearing Xiao Yan's words, Nalan Yanran's eyes widened slightly, and she began to stammer as she spoke.

"Well, actually, my room was taken, and it's late at night, so I couldn't find anywhere to sleep and came here..."

When Nalan Yanran asked about this, Xiao Yan felt a little embarrassed and reached out to touch his nose.

Clearly, although Xiao Yan told the truth this time, he was still a little guilty inside.

"Your room has been taken? Who? You are the sect leader of Pan Gate. Who dares to take your room? Come on, let's go and meet the person who took your room!"

If all else fails, we'll mobilize the entire Pan Gate community to help you!

As the leader of the Pan Gate sect, if you are bullied, it's equivalent to bullying the entire Pan Gate!

Finally, Nalan Yanran gradually calmed down, and her thoughts returned to her mind.

After she finished speaking, she prepared to pull Xiao Yan to his room to kick him out.

"The person who took my room is a Dou Zong."

Before Nalan Yanran could pull Xiao Yan a few steps, Xiao Yan's leisurely voice rang out.

"... as if I hadn't said anything."

Nalan Yanran was indeed very true to herself.

Facing Dou Zong, the entire Pan Gate sect combined wouldn't even be enough to withstand a single slap from him, so what's the point of talking about taking back Xiao Yan's house?

"So, Yanran, we just got back from a mission together today, and I don't want to cultivate. I just want to get a good night's sleep. You're not going to kick me out, are you?"

Knowing that Nalan Yanran was easily swayed by emotions, Xiao Yan once again feigned a pitiful expression.

Nalan Yanran: "..."

Although she could tell that Xiao Yan was faking it.

But at this moment, she really couldn't bring herself to refuse!

After all, the two were engaged.

If possible, the two could even get married on the spot!

In fact, Nalan Yanran had already decided in her heart that she had chosen Xiao Yan.

However, although they had a tacit understanding before, they had never acted too intimately before!

At most, they might hold hands occasionally.

That's all there is!

Neither of them are the type to be inseparable all the time.

Now, Xiao Yan is essentially saying he wants to sleep with her for one night, a pace that's so fast that Nalan Yanran is finding it hard to accept.

But deep down, she didn't seem to really want to reject Xiao Yan...

"Yanran, if you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."

As he spoke, Xiao Yan smiled and pulled Nalan Yanran to sit down by the bedside.

"I..."

I wanted to say something.

But at this moment, no words could express Nalan Yanran's feelings.

Through the pure white moonlight shining through the window, one could vaguely see that Nalan Yanran's cheeks were flushed.

Inside? Or outside?

"Ah?"

Seeing that Nalan Yanran seemed a little dazed, unlike her usual quick-witted self, Xiao Yan smiled again.

Without waiting for Nalan Yanran's reaction, Xiao Yan immediately picked her up in a princess carry.

"Ah!"

Another gasp escaped her lips, and Nalan Yanran's cheeks flushed even redder.

Clearly, she hadn't expected Xiao Yan to do this.

The bright moon outside the window seemed to be shy, hiding behind the clouds.

In the darkness, Nalan Yanran could feel Xiao Yan's eyes staring intently at her.

This caused Nalan Yanran, who was being held in Xiao Yan's arms, to bury her head in his chest, not daring to lift it up at all.

At the same time, Nalan Yanran's somewhat hot breath blew onto Xiao Yan's chest, making him feel a little itchy.

"Phew~"

Taking a deep breath, Xiao Yan finally suppressed the restlessness in his mind.

Then, Xiao Yan gently placed Nalan Yanran on the inside of the bed and covered her with a blanket.

The blanket had just been pulled over her head when Nalan Yanran peeked inside, leaving only her shy, timid eyes peeking out.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan reached out and lightly tapped Nalan Yanran's forehead with his finger, then also crawled into the quilt.

This was the first time the two of them had slept under the same blanket since they started dating!

After Xiao Yan also crawled into bed, Nalan Yanran's body visibly stiffened, and she didn't even dare to move.

Fortunately, Xiao Yan had clearly anticipated this situation.

Nalan Yanran remained unmoved; he could have taken the initiative!

Without hesitation, Xiao Yan squeezed his body closer to Nalan Yanran's Nalan Yanran stiff body and wrapped his arms around her waist.

Ah~!

Another gasp of surprise rang out.

I've already lost count of how many times Nalan Yanran exclaimed tonight.

"Relax, I won't do anything to you, Yanran. I just want to hold you like this and then get a good night's sleep!"

Xiao Yan's gentle voice rang in Nalan Yanran's ears.

"Really? Really?"

Nalan Yanran seemed somewhat incredulous, her expression still carrying a hint of fear.

"Of course, I won't force Yanran to do anything she doesn't want to do!"

Xiao Yan chuckled and spoke.

Raising her head slightly, looking at Xiao Yan's earnest expression so close to her, Nalan Yanran's previously stiff body gradually softened.

"Um"

Finally, Nalan Yanran softly responded and then leaned her head against Xiao Yan's chest.

Seeing this, Xiao Yan smiled once again.

Because he knew that after tonight, his relationship with Nalan Yanran would take another step forward!

And so, the two embraced each other and closed their eyes.

Soon after, Nalan Yanran's steady breathing sounded in Xiao Yan's ear.

Nalan Yanran slept soundly, but Xiao Yan, with her warm and soft body in his arms, spent a sleepless night experiencing both pain and pleasure...
