[... Was I really tricked?]
[Aaaaaah, Xie Linchuan, you heartless bastard!]
[It should be in a slightly modified state; if it were really modified, the cat's posture in the restaurant wouldn't be so natural.]
[I knew Xie Linchuan, you bastard, had ill intentions towards our baby! I knew it when you were in the same group!]
[ Shen Xingcan, are you satisfied now? I knew you weren't up to any good on that show. You're always trying to seduce him, waaaaah.]
[A warning to certain CP fans: stop saying nonsense, or you might get a lawyer's letter.]
[These two are practically about to kiss on camera, why are their respective solo fans still getting all worked up?]
[That's how solo fans are; even if their kids are old enough to run errands, it doesn't stop them from hating their sister-in-law and brother-in-law.]
[Trump supporters should be content; his wife is amazing. Look at all the other wives trending on social media right now. Of course, Chanyeol supporters should also be content; his brother-in-law is absolutely dominant in the Chinese entertainment industry.]
Lyon is a city steeped in history, not quite a place where every step reveals a new scene, but completing the program's task was still quite easy.
When it was time to meet, both groups brought back far more photos than the program team had requested.
After some haggling, Shen Xingcan successfully sold the extra photos for 200 points.
Starting from Lyon, they took the Sun Motorway and eventually arrived in Bollène, the northernmost part of Provence, after two hours.
It was already dark when we arrived at our destination.
After dinner, everyone agreed to depart at six o'clock the next morning and then went back to their rooms to rest.
Naturally, Shen Xingcan still shared a room with Xie Linchuan.
As soon as the door opened, Shen Xingcan threw herself onto the large bed.
"Take a shower first, then rest."
Xie Linchuan's voice came from behind Shen Xingcan.
Shen Xingcan rolled over, then reached out to Xie Linchuan and said in a coquettish tone, "Hug me, I don't want to move."
Xie Linchuan dutifully carried the lazy cat from the bed to the bathroom.
Once inside the bathroom, Shen Xingcan immediately dismissed him. "Alright, you can leave now. I'm going to take a shower."
Xie Linchuan looked at Shen Xingcan, who had turned ruthless. "... Use her and then throw her away?"
Shen Xingcan tiptoed and kissed Xie Linchuan's lips. "Reward."
Xie Linchuan was not satisfied. "Perfunctory."
Just as Shen Xingcan was about to get angry, someone grabbed the back of her head and kissed her.
He refused to speak and refused to cooperate.
Xie Linchuan gently bit Shen Xingcan's lip.
Shen Xingcan winced in pain and was about to curse, but this action led to her losing control.
... Uphill, gently stroking the back...
Xie Linchuan only released the person in his arms after kissing them until their body went limp.
Xie Linchuan kissed Shen Xingcan's nose. "This is the reward."
Shen Xingcan glared at Xie Linchuan with annoyance. His peach blossom eyes were still moist from the excessive kissing. His look was a mixture of reproach and resentment, which made Xie Linchuan's eyes darken.
He gave Xie Linchuan a complicated look. "You were gone so long yesterday, how could you still come today?"
Xie Linchuan said calmly, "It's normal to lose control when your lover is in your arms."
He appeared completely nonchalant, but the reality was quite the opposite of his demeanor.
Shen Xingcan: "..."
Looking at it this way, it's not all bad that they didn't get together when they were eighteen.
People are so impulsive these days; eighteen-year-old Xie Linchuan could probably cripple him.
Xie Linchuan kissed Shen Xingcan on the lips again. "Let's take a shower."
Shen Xingcan: "..."
"... I didn't bring any pajamas, could you give me one of your clothes?"
In the morning, Shen Xingcan thought she would have clothes to wear when she got home, so she left without taking anything with her.
"Um."
Soon, Xie Linchuan brought his pajamas to the bathroom.
Unsurprisingly, it was just a lone top.
Shen Xingcan inwardly cursed Xie Linchuan Linchuan's ulterior motives.
After taking off her clothes, Shen Xingcan did not take a shower immediately, but instead threw all the clothes she had changed out of the bathroom.
"Help me wash it."
He only has this one set of clothes, and if he doesn't wash it, he'll have to wear dirty clothes tomorrow.
Fortunately, the hotel they chose had very complete facilities...
But what about underwear...? Should I just stop wearing them?
Or should Xie Linchuan send in... his?
Forget it, I won't wear it anymore. Anyway, except for the last step, we've done everything we should and shouldn't have done...
Yes, a real man should have the freedom to not wear underwear!
"Good."
Shen Xingcan dried herself off, changed into Xie Linchuan's pajamas, and walked out of the bathroom.
Hmm, it's a bit strange. How should I put it? Even though underwear is just a small piece of fabric, I still feel very uncomfortable all over when I'm not wearing it.
"I'm done washing, you can go now."
"Okay, let me process this email."
Soon, Xie Linchuan turned off the computer, but he didn't go into the bathroom immediately. Instead, he helped Shen Xingcan dry her hair before going into the bathroom.
Because he wasn't wearing underwear, even though Xie Linchuan had given him a very long nightgown, Shen Xingcan was extremely careful throughout the process, afraid that he might accidentally expose himself.
She carried her change of clothes into the bathroom.
Then he saw Shen Xingcan's underwear, which she had washed and was hanging there.
So... you weren't wearing anything?
No wonder you were so cautious just now.
Shen Xingcan lay down in bed and, with practiced ease, unlocked Xie Linchuan's phone, which was on the bedside table, and started playing games.
Xie Linchuan's phone didn't have any games before; Shen Xingcan downloaded them later.
Even though they both had the same model of phone, Shen Xingcan still thought Xie Linchuan's phone was more fun than his.
When Xie Linchuan came out of the bathroom, he saw Shen Xingcan happily playing games on his phone.
Shen Xingcan was probably having so much fun that she didn't look up.
He simply nestled into Xie Linchuan's arms after Xie Linchuan got into bed.
Soon, the game ended, and Shen Xingcan, having successfully won the match, put down her phone with satisfaction and stretched. "Go to sleep."
Xie Linchuan lowered his head and kissed Shen Xingcan's nose. "Let me see if your thighs are still red."
Without hesitation, Shen Xingcan replied, "I'm no longer famous; I've fully recovered."
He's not crazy, how could he let Xie Linchuan see that he's not wearing anything underneath? Letting Xie Linchuan see would be no different than running naked in front of Xie Linchuan.
Xie Linchuan insisted, "Since you're no longer popular, you should let me see you even more."
Shen Xingcan narrowed her eyes dangerously. "Do you want to see that place or somewhere else?"
Children might have to choose one of two options, but Xie Linchuan is already an adult.
So he calmly replied, "I want to see them all."
Shen Xingcan said irritably, "Look at you, you big-headed devil, you can't look."
Xie Linchuan was very easy to talk to. "Touching is fine, kissing is also okay."
Shen Xingcan angrily said, "Get out."
Xie Linchuan, who was told to get lost, actually laughed. He lowered his head and kissed Shen Xingcan's forehead. " Little Star is so cute when she's cursing."
Shen Xingcan: "..."
He looked at Xie Linchuan seriously and offered his suggestion. "I think you're acting really strange right now. Don't you really want to consider going to the hospital for treatment?"
Xie Linchuan wanted to kiss him again.
Shen Xingcan, a kind-hearted citizen who offered suggestions, was repaid with ingratitude; he was pulled into someone's arms and kissed until he was breathless.
Shen Xingcan tried to stop the incessantly wreaking havoc.
In return, the other party became even more unrestrained.
"Um..."
Shen Xingcan was unable to control herself.
The sound seemed to provoke Xie Linchuan.
After a dizzying moment, Shen Xingcan found herself lying on the bed.
Her lips had barely gotten a chance to breathe when they were blocked again.
The hem of their clothes rolled up due to their movements.
Everything is clearly visible.
Xie Linchuan wasn't a fan of desserts, but now he realized something: he hadn't liked them before simply because he hadn't met anyone he did.
He longed for this little cat-shaped cake, for example.
Haunting my dreams...
Clean and tidy...
My hands were conscripted against my will.
After all, Shen Xingcan didn't want things to turn out like they did today.
Even after a day apart, he's still full of energy and perseverance.
The bath was wasted; I have to take another one.
Having been treated like a delicacy for a long time, Shen Xingcan was a little reluctant to talk to Xie Linchuan. So when Xie Linchuan returned to the bedroom from the bathroom, he found that a Chu-Han River had been built between him and Shen Xingcan with pillows.
Shen Xingcan sat there, pointing to the pillow. " Xie Linchuan is not allowed to go past this pillow."
And what about you?
Shen Xingcan replied naturally, "Of course I can."
Xie Linchuan reminded him, "... This doesn't seem fair to me."
Shen Xingcan declared arrogantly, "This world is inherently unfair! Because the Earth revolves around Shen Xingcan!! I will ascend the throne as Emperor!"
"You're no longer going to be Crown Prince Shen?"
Shen Xingcan said enigmatically, "I'm already in my twenties; it's time for me to ascend the throne."
He sat there, his beautiful eyes radiating brilliance, like the warm winter sun, dazzling and delightful to behold.
Xie Linchuan looked down at the person, his usually cold and sharp phoenix eyes now filled with tenderness and love.
Shen Xingcan and Xie Linchuan stared at each other. As Shen Xingcan looked at Xie Linchuan, he couldn't stand the gaze anymore. His earlobes felt hot, and he turned his head away, saying, "Anyway, you can't cross the line."
They've already done more intimate things and been completely honest with each other, yet he still blushes because of Xie Linchuan's gaze—it's simply unacceptable!
After saying that, Shen Xingcan lay stiffly on the bed, pulling the blanket over her head, looking ashamed to be seen by anyone.
Xie Linchuan chuckled softly, "Baby, how can you be so cute? I'm totally smitten."
Shen Xingcan: "..."
Ughhhhh, Xie Linchuan's brain seems to have really gone mad!
He threw back the covers, his tone extremely fierce. "Go to bed."
Xie Linchuan responded and quickly got into bed. He removed the pillow that Shen Xingcan had placed between them and pulled Shen Xingcan into his arms.
Shen Xingcan watched helplessly as her Chu-Han River boundary was thrown aside, and she was pulled into someone's arms.
He glared at Xie Linchuan and reached out to snatch the pillow. "What are you doing? I told you we should keep our distance."
No, I can't sleep without holding you.
Xie Linchuan held Shen Xingcan tightly in his arms and lowered his head to kiss the tip of her nose.
Shen Xingcan: "..."
Annoying, annoying, annoying!
Xie Linchuan: "Good night."
As he spoke, he stretched out his long arm and turned off the bedside lamp.
The room was plunged into darkness.
Shen Xingcan said angrily in the darkness, "I'm so upset, I can't sleep anymore because of you."
Xie Linchuan opened his eyes. "Are you sure you're not sleepy anymore?"
Shen Xingcan: "I'm sure."
Xie Linchuan: "Since you're not sleepy anymore, let's do something fun."
Before Shen Xingcan could say anything, he felt a hand slip inside the hem of his shirt.
Xie Linchuan then commented. "Very good, very good, the taste should be good."
Shen Xingcan's face flushed bright red in an instant. "Ahhh, Xie Linchuan, you invincible perverted scoundrel, shut up! Take your hand off!"
Xie Linchuan refused decisively. "No."
Shen Xingcan threatened Xie Linchuan in an unfriendly tone. "I haven't accepted your advances yet. If you continue like this, I'll call the police to arrest you!"
Xie Linchuan: "It's not a loss, but since I'm going to go to jail anyway, I think I should be a little more reckless."
Shen Xingcan choked. "... The whole country will know you're in jail for molesting Shen Xingcan. You'll be incredibly embarrassed, and you'll have to wear a hood when you go out in public, otherwise people will point and whisper about you!"
These words were so cute that Xie Linchuan leaned in and kissed Shen Xingcan again.
Caught off guard, Shen Xingcan was pulled into someone's arms and kissed until she was dizzy.
He's gone mad! Xie Linchuan must have gone mad!
Shen Xingcan was frantically scrolling through comments in her mind.
Noticing Shen Xingcan's lack of focus, Xie Linchuan pinched Shen Xingcan.
"... mix..."
Xie Linchuan held Shen Xingcan in his arms, with a force that seemed to swallow her whole.
After a long while, Shen Xingcan was released.
Shen Xingcan actually wanted to unleash a little fury, but considering Xie Linchuan's current mental state, he decisively chose to be pragmatic.
"I'm sleepy, I want to sleep."
Xie Linchuan: "Oh? Then who just said they weren't sleepy?"
Shen Xingcan immediately replied, "That was just now, and now is now! I'm super, super sleepy!"
To prove this point, Shen Xingcan exaggeratedly snored twice.
Hearing the movements of the person in his arms, Xie Linchuan felt his heart soften completely.
He gently patted Shen Xingcan's head. "Go to sleep, I won't bother you anymore."
Shen Xingcan closed her eyes and found a comfortable position in Xie Linchuan's arms.
Xie Linchuan gently stroked Shen Xingcan's back, as if he were coaxing a playful and adorable kitten to sleep.
Shen Xingcan was truly exhausted, and soon she fell into a deep sleep in Xie Linchuan's arms.
The next morning, Shen Xingcan was woken up by Xie Linchuan while she was sleeping.
Shen Xingcan sat on the bed in a daze, muttering, "... Once this show is over, I'm definitely going to sleep for three days and three nights."
"Can."
I'll carry you to wash up.
Shen Xingcan firmly refused the services offered by Xie Linchuan.
"No, I want to be self-reliant."
If he wants this man to hug him, he'll definitely demand payment. Given his current completely naked state, it's incredibly easy for him to take advantage of him.
Xie Linchuan was surprised. "Don't want to? Is Little Star afraid I'll take advantage of you?"
Shen Xingcan snorted, "It's good that you know."
Xie Linchuan laughed, a laugh that was meaningful and malicious.
Shen Xingcan soon realized that even if she refused Xie Linchuan's services, she would still be taken advantage of!
