At that time, in the tent where Chu Nanfeng and Leng Ruxue were...
The tent was pitch black and silent, but the faint, uneven breathing in the air suggested that the person lying inside was still awake.
Lying in his sleeping bag, Chu Nanfeng tried hard to fall asleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes, those incredibly embarrassing scenes would play in his mind like a movie.
Even though it was over, he still felt a surge of heat in his body and his cheeks flushed.
He was so embarrassed that his toes curled up tightly together, and he gritted his teeth inwardly.
Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!
Can anyone tell him where his brain went?
Damn it, I'm done living, let's just let him die of embarrassment!
Unbeknownst to him, the quiet, dark tent was filled with the sounds of him tossing and turning, and struggling to breathe.
"Um... handsome brother, can't you sleep?"
In the darkness, a hesitant, tentative voice, as cold as snow, suddenly rang out.
Chu Nanfeng's body trembled violently, and he subconsciously let out a "Huh?"
Seemingly afraid he would ask again, "How did you know?", Leng Ruxue answered first:
"Um... I heard you tossing and turning over there, so I guess you're not asleep."
All his movements froze. In the darkness, Chu Nanfeng felt as if his brain was about to suffocate.
so what?
How should he answer?
Yes, I'm so embarrassed by myself that I can't sleep. I can't hold it in anymore, I want to die...
"Handsome guy, are you a little nervous?"
"Because you live with me?"
There was a moment of silence, then Leng Ruxue couldn't help but chuckle.
She had previously dated two younger men who were emotionally uninvolved, and their behavior on their first date with her was exactly the same as Chu Nanfeng's at this moment.
Hearing Chu Nanfeng's panicked denial after his thoughts were exposed, Leng Ruxue couldn't help but feel a little teasing, deliberately drawing out her words:
"Handsome brother~"
"You're not thinking of anything bad, are you?"
"I didn't expect you to look so serious, but so lewd."
Suddenly sitting up in his sleeping bag, Chu Nanfeng exclaimed repeatedly:
"No!"
"Don't misunderstand, it's just that this is my first time spending the night with someone of the opposite sex, and I'm a little uncomfortable."
Leng Ruxue was startled by his somewhat intense reaction and quickly explained that she was just joking and didn't mean anything by it.
Seeing that Chu Nanfeng seemed to have taken her words to heart, she couldn't help but give a bitter smile:
"Handsome brother, I remember there were quite a few rumors about you dating female celebrities in the entertainment news."
"Besides, as a popular star, you're bound to collaborate with female stars when you're filming TV series and movies."
"It can't be that..." nervous, can it?
After calming his breathing slightly, Chu Nanfeng realized his reaction had been a bit too extreme. His cheeks, hidden in the darkness, felt slightly hot. He couldn't help but scratch his head and stammered, "..."
"You know that...it's just a rumor, it's all fake. I've never had any contact with them, let alone dated them."
"As for the things I do in film and television, I don't follow the idol route, and the roles I play with actresses are all serious dramas."
"ah?"
Leng Ruxue was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.
In her mind, a popular superstar like Chu Nanfeng, with his extraordinary family background and handsome appearance, would have a line of girls, even female celebrities, chasing after him that could stretch all the way to the other side of the ocean.
How did he manage to remain single since birth, ignoring countless romantic encounters?
If it were her, she'd definitely change partners every single day...
Cough cough! This isn't good!
Let's change her every month, otherwise she'll seem a bit of a jerk...
After calming down her shameful thoughts, Leng Ruxue also became a little more serious:
"Handsome brother, you are such a good person."
"Don't be too nervous. You're such a good person, it makes me feel ashamed."
"It's just spending the night together in the same place, nothing special."
These words made Chu Nanfeng even more embarrassed. His fingers tapped his cheek erratically, and he stammered:
"Um...th...thank you."
She chuckled softly, and, not feeling sleepy, Leng Ruxue spoke gently:
"Handsome brother, don't be nervous. I can't sleep. Can you chat with me for a while?"
Without waiting for Chu Nanfeng's response, she began to speak on her own:
"Handsome brother, does the second male lead in that war drama you acted in a while ago look like that in real life?"
"Um...more or less."
"Wow~ Is he currently single or...?"
"It seems like... I'm single."
"Wow!!! Holy crap, I really want to date him!"
"..."
"Um, did I swear? You didn't hear me, right?"
"..."
After chatting idly for a while, sensing that Chu Nanfeng didn't seem very interested in this topic, Leng Ruxue quickly changed the subject and brought the conversation back to Chu Nanfeng.
"Handsome brother, may I ask you a question?"
"you say."
"With such a privileged background and being a superstar in the entertainment industry, why would you become a spy?"
Chu Nanfeng was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, a hint of bewilderment appearing in his eyes. After a moment, he suddenly looked in Leng Ruxue's direction.
In the darkness, he couldn't see Leng Ruxue's face clearly, but he could guess that she was probably resting her chin on her hand, looking at him with bright, sparkling eyes, waiting for his answer.
His eyes lowered slightly, and he couldn't help but murmur:
"You... are the first person to ask me this question."
"Uh... ah? Why do you say that?"
Chu Nanfeng rolled over and lay back down in his sleeping bag, placing his hands behind his head. His eyes were somewhat vacant as he stared at the darkness above him, and he murmured in a daze:
"Those who are close to me do not need to ask me to find out the truth themselves, but those who want to ask me are unable to speak because of the distance between us."
A deep, mature voice gently echoed in the quiet tent, carrying a sense of bewilderment, loss, and also a feeling of relief.
There seemed to be a gentle yet profound emotion mixed in, spreading out in a misty haze.
Leng Ruxue didn't quite understand, but she sensed a subtle emotion in Chu Nanfeng's voice.
She considerately didn't disturb him, folding her small hands together and resting her delicate chin on them, quietly waiting for Chu Nanfeng to speak.
Letting out a silent breath, Chu Nanfeng suddenly chuckled softly, tilting his head slightly towards Leng Ruxue, and spoke with a light laugh:
"Little sister, what kind of person am I in your eyes?"
"Ugh...you..."
After a moment's hesitation, Leng Ruxue thoughtfully spoke:
"Hmm...very handsome. Besides the pretty little brother, you are one of the most handsome people I have ever seen."
"Very mature, very steady, and very responsible."
"He's also skilled in both literary and martial arts, singing and dancing..."
"Ahem, anyway, it's very impressive, very good."
After a slight pause, Leng Ruxue lightly scratched her hair with her small hand, her voice carrying a hint of teasing laughter:
"But he can be a bit chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) and adorable at times."
Chu Nanfeng chuckled softly and slowly spoke:
"Thank you, little sister."
"But I'm not as good as you say. Actually, I'm a coward, a pushover, and very useless..."
