Chapter 338: Chapter 339: Wash Up_1

That night, when Nan Feng returned to the mansion, she found herself living there alone since Nan Quanyou moved back to the countryside. Nan Feng planned to buy a house in town at some point.

The night was deep, and all the other households in the mansion had already gone to bed, and it was very quiet. Nan Feng wanted to bid farewell to Ye Ge at the entrance, but Ye Ge said, "I’ll walk you inside."

"Well... okay. I have some Longjing tea from the West Lake inside, if you want to come in for a cup," Nan Feng wasn’t ready to say goodbye to Ye Ge either. The two of them didn’t often spend time alone together, and it was rare for them to be in such high spirits tonight.

However... she vaguely remembered a modern trope, which suggested that if a woman invites a man up for some tea late at night, that means she was ready to take the relationship to the next level.

Oh no, although she was attracted to Ye Ge’s physique, she hadn’t figured out how to use a contraceptive. What if she gets pregnant?

That’s not necessarily the case, perhaps Ye Ge was just innocently wanting to drink some tea. After all, people of this era didn’t have as many hidden intentions, and Ye Ge was always quite restrained.

Ye Ge didn’t notice Nan Feng’s inner turmoil. Once inside, he sat down straight-backed at the table in the living room.

Nan Feng sighed in relief. It seemed that Ye Ge had no other intentions.

She went to light the candles before telling Ye Ge, "I’ll go and boil some water."

As she was about to leave, Ye Ge stopped her, "No need, it’s late, we shouldn’t disturb the neighbors. Cold water is fine."

Nan Feng put down the kettle and poured some cold water for Ye Ge, "I’m sorry that this is all I can offer."

"That’s fine," Ye Ge drank the water.

Nan Feng refilled his cup, and he drank again.

As Nan Feng was about to pour him another cup, he grasped her hand and said, "No need, I’ve had enough."

"Um, well..." Nan Feng thought of some sunflower seeds and peanuts in the house that she could offer Ye Ge. As she was about to get them, Ye Ge stopped her again, "Nan Feng, you don’t need to cater to me anymore. You should go wash up and sleep."

Go wash up and sleep?

Her heart fluttered as she looked at Ye Ge and asked, "And... you?"

She wanted to ask when he would leave, but instead he replied, "I could start my shift later tomorrow."

What did he mean? Nan Feng did not understand.

What relationship does her going to sleep and him starting his shift later have? Could it be... he was planning to stay here?

Nan put off asking him at the moment, and fetched a basin to draw some water from outside. The well water in late autumn was cold, so she borrowed some warm water from the stove of her neighbor, Bu Rong.

It was okay since they were neighbors, and sometimes when Bu Rong ran out of hot water, she would ask Nan Feng as well.

After fetching the warm water, Nan Feng came back with a cleansing milk and washed her face, removing the rouge. Since the courtyard was deserted and pitch-black, she took the opportunity to wipe herself, thinking nobody could see her.

After finishing her wash, she drew another basin of water to soak her feet before bed.

However, when she returned with the basin in her hands, Ye Ge promptly took it from her. She thought that Ye Ge was going to help her, so she thanked him.

But Ye Ge said, "I could also use a wash."

Eh, what?

Ye Ge also wanted to wash?

Watching Nan Feng’s shocked expression, Ye Ge put down the basin and then kissed her, "I’m staying here tonight."

"This ..."

Indeed, regardless of which era, it’s always the same. When you say you want to come in for tea, you actually didn’t come for the tea.

To Nan Feng’s surprise, Ye Ge had already started to take off his clothes. Although he stopped halfway and told her to go to bed first, "You should sleep now."

Wait in bed for him?

Countless question marks flashed through Nan Feng’s mind.

Should she talk to him about it?

It didn’t seem like there was anything to say.

Suggest that he stay in her father’s old room? He might not want that. Plus, why should he sleep in her father’s old room? Her bed was clearly big enough.

Did she want to sleep with him? Of course she did.

Since she did, why pretend to be coy? Why not just lie down in bed?

Nan Feng bit the bullet and climbed into bed.

The room was too quiet, and every little noise from outside echoed clearly in Nan Feng’s ears. First, she heard a "hiss" sound, which was quite strange and unnerving, like peeling skin.

Wait, peeling skin?

Nan Feng suddenly sat up in bed.
