After Chen Ling finished speaking, the atmosphere instantly became awkward.

Sui Li’er’s face was red, her lips sealed, holding her breath and hardly daring to exhale. Her heart raced like it was on steroids, her face growing redder by the second.

Thinking about Chen Ling’s words, she felt as if she were wearing nothing at all, every inch of her skin seemed to be burning. Even her two fair and tender legs had turned slightly rosy.

Chen Ling took a couple of deep breaths, looking at Sui Li’er in front of him. Even though she hadn’t undressed yet, little Chen Ling had already risen in salute.

Suddenly, two bullet comments appeared above Sui Li’er’s head.

(No… this can’t happen… we haven’t even gotten together yet!)

But she couldn’t help but think:

(Could it be… if we look, then we could… be together?)

(No… I can’t think like this! My goodness…)

(How could I think like this!)

(If being together is because of that, it’s not really liking each other, is it?)

Sui Li’er felt extremely embarrassed for having these thoughts.

Seeing her expression, Chen Ling could only cry and laugh: I’m sorry, I’ve already seen it…

Then, Sui Li’er shook her head, whispering softly: “No… this can’t happen, unless…”

She didn’t finish her sentence out loud but thought to herself: Unless you say you like me. Otherwise, I won’t give you that pleasure. Hmph.

Chen Ling glanced at her and knowingly asked: “Unless what?”

“Unless… it’s nothing! It’s not allowed, it can’t happen!”

Chen Ling chuckled lightly and suddenly remembered something: “By the way, you still haven’t shown me that sportswear.”

“Uh…” Sui Li’er paused for a moment and remembered that promise.

Today, her little fireball accidentally hit Chen Ling. To compensate him, Sui Li’er had promised to wear that cooling sportswear in the evening…

“Oh~ And is your hand still hurting?”

Chen Ling raised an eyebrow: “What’s wrong? If it doesn’t hurt, you won’t show it to me?”

“Huh? No, no! I’m just worried about you…”

Chen Ling chuckled softly: “It hurts, massage it for me after you’re done.”

“Oh! Alright then, wait for me.” Saying so, Sui Li’er ran towards her own room.

Her reaction surprised Chen Ling a bit. He thought she would be shy about it.

After the embarrassment of nearly undressing a moment ago, this wasn’t much for Sui Li’er.

〚 Ding~ Sui Sui is shy! Points +100 million~ 〛

Just ignore what I said.

Chen Ling sat on the couch with a smile, waiting for Sui Li’er.

After a while, since she didn’t come out, he called out: “Sui Li’er! What are you doing?”

“Ah! Wait a moment! Coming… coming!” Sui Li’er’s soft voice echoed, and from inside the room came rustling sounds.

Then the door opened slightly.

Sui Li’er’s little head peeked out slowly, and it was evident that her face had turned red again.

Chen Ling couldn’t help but laugh: “Did you put your pants on your head?”

Sui Li’er paused for a moment, then reached out her small hand to touch her forehead…

“No…”

Only then did she realize that Chen Ling was joking.

“What, you just stick your head out? What about your body?”

“Um…” After Chen Ling’s words, Sui Li’er shyly exposed her body.

Chen Ling: ???

At that moment, Sui Li’er stood at the doorway, wrapped in a small blanket, looking at him with a red face.

Chen Ling was speechless: “Are you teasing me?”

“No, no! It’s not that, I…” Sui Li’er hurriedly said anxiously: “I’ll just show you a bit… just a bit!”

Saying so, she ran to a spot not far from him. Blushing, she held the blanket that covered herself.

“Swoosh~”

Suddenly, she abruptly opened the blanket.

What she revealed was a minimalist black sporty crop top and super-short shorts. Sui Li’er’s slender waist was exposed, with not a trace of excess flesh on her body. The exposed area might even rival the swimsuits Chen Ling had bought for her!

In fact, this was the mainstream attire of Misty Rain City.

Summer in Misty Rain City was just too hot. Even now, there were people dressed like this, like Yan Ran.

After Sui Li’er quickly opened and closed the blanket, she wrapped herself up tightly, blushing. She shyly looked at Chen Ling with her beautiful eyes: “Alright… that’s enough!”

Chen Ling smiled and said: “I didn’t see.”

“Huh? Then I’ll do it again… make sure you see clearly this time.”

Chen Ling chuckled and nodded.

“Swoosh~”

Sui Li’er opened the blanket again, but just as she was about to close it, Chen Ling suddenly said: “Didn’t I owe you a hug earlier?”

“Huh?” Sui Li’er paused for a moment, “It seems so, yay!”

Chen Ling laughed and lay down on the couch, spreading his arms. Sui Li’er, with the blanket, happily lunged toward him!

The blanket enveloped both of them.

“Hehe~”

Sui Li’er made a contented sound. A sense of security and satisfaction spread to every cell of her body. She felt like there was nothing more soothing in the world than a hug.

After a while, she said in a small voice: “Chen Ling, I want to go change clothes…”

Chen Ling laughed: “Sure, go change your clothes. Why do you need to tell me?”

“Then, will we still hug after I come back?”

“No!”

“Ah…” Sui Li’er pouted, tightened the small blanket, and mumbled softly: “In that case, I won’t change…”

(Since I’m under the blanket, he can’t see me anyway…)

Suddenly, the voice of the little fox sounded from outside: “Sui Sui! Time to eat!”

Sui Li’er subconsciously got up from the couch.

After a couple of steps, she suddenly felt a cool sensation on her body! Blushing, she turned her head and found Chen Ling looking at her with a mischievous smile.

“Um… give me back the blanket…”

Chen Ling, however, tightened the blanket and smiled: “I’m cold.”

“You…”

“Sui Sui!” The little fox urged from outside.

“Coming…” Sui Li’er had to hurry to open the door.

“Wow… you look so good!” The little fox couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw Sui Li’er’s appearance.

“Tha… thank you~”

At night, as darkness fell.

Sui Li’er was in her room writing in her diary, while Chen Ling stood by her side for a while, then went to his room to paint.

〚 Ding~ Your mom: Zero is calling, do you want to answer? 〛

Could Chen Ling not answer? No way.

“Hello? Mom?”

“Hey, Chen Chen~ Mom misses you~”

“Yeah yeah, I miss you too…”

“Hehe~ Mom made a few outfits for you and Sui Sui, couple outfits. I’ve already sent them to you, be sure to check them out~”

Chen Ling: ???

“Ha? You made them yourself?”

Chen Ling suddenly had a bad feeling.

“Yep, hehe~”

“Can I not accept them?”

“Huh? Why not… Mom made them from ten-thousand-year silk! They’re very comfortable to wear!”

“Okay, got it.”

“Hehe, how’s the relationship with Sui Sui lately?”

Chen Ling responded calmly: “No feelings.”

“Huh? Why? Did you guys have a fight?”

Chen Ling:”…”

“You must have upset her again.”

Chen Ling: “Huh?”

“Sui Sui is a girl, so tender and loving. Don’t always make her angry. You need to comfort her; don’t you know that?”

Chen Ling’s face suddenly turned strange, “When did I upset her?”

“Tsk~ Trying to hide it from me? I knew it a long time ago~ You always scare her and even intentionally tear her clothes.”

Chen Ling: ???
