BXBX NOVEL Chapter 197
Qin Yuchuan replied, "Why don\'t you change to a different bedroom then?"
Feng Qingci retorted, "No way, I need to keep a close eye on you. You go shower first, and I\'ll play a game."
Qin Yuchuan took his pajamas and went into the bathroom, while Feng Qingci started his game.
After his shower, Qin Yuchuan emerged with his long hair still damp, towel in hand, and walked towards the door.
Feng Qingci, still playing his game, asked, "Where are you going?"
Qin Yuchuan answered, "To blow-dry my hair."
Feng Qingci grabbed the air conditioner remote, saying, "Don\'t even think about going to find Feng Qingyi. Just dry your hair under the air conditioner!"
He added, "Why does a grown man need such long hair anyway?"
Abandoning his plan to leave, Qin Yuchuan stood under the air conditioner, slowly drying his hair.
After Feng Qingci finished a round of his game, he also took a shower. When he came out, Qin Yuchuan was already lying in bed, asleep.
"It\'s not even late, and he\'s already sleeping!" Feng Qingci muttered.
Receiving no response from Qin Yuchuan, Feng Qingci didn\'t want to disturb his rest, so he put down his phone and went to sleep early as well.
Early the next morning, when Feng Qingyi woke up and didn\'t see either of them, she knocked on their door.
Hearing no response from inside, Feng Qingyi opened the door directly.
As soon as she opened it, a blast of cold air hit her, making her shiver. What was going on? It was freezing!
Feng Qingyi walked in to find the two of them sleeping close together on the bed, tightly wrapped in blankets.
The air conditioner was blowing cold air, set to 17 degrees Celsius. Feng Qingyi found the remote and turned it off.
These two were really something, sleeping so soundly at 17 degrees!
"Wake up! Get up now!" she called out.
Hearing her voice, the two emerged from under the covers.
Qin Yuchuan, noticing Feng Qingci clinging to him, quickly pushed him away.
Feng Qingyi looked at the two with exasperation. "You had the air conditioner set to 17 degrees. Weren\'t you cold?"
"Air conditioner? When did I turn on the air conditioner? You must have done it!" Feng Qingci accused, looking at Qin Yuchuan.
"Come on, don\'t try to pin this on him. It\'s May, and he\'s not crazy enough to turn on the air conditioner," Feng Qingyi retorted.
Besides, she hadn\'t taught him how to use the air conditioner yet, so he probably didn\'t know how.
"...So you\'re saying I\'m the crazy one," Feng Qingci grumbled.
Feng Qingyi replied, "At least you\'re self-aware. Alright, both of you get up. I\'m going out to buy breakfast."
After Feng Qingyi left, Feng Qingci quickly distanced himself from Qin Yuchuan. "Why didn\'t you turn off the air conditioner last night?"
Qin Yuchuan simply said, "I don\'t know how."
Feng Qingci retorted, "Stop playing dumb. I suspect you did this on purpose to mess with me."
Qin Yuchuan didn\'t argue further. He got up quickly and went to wash up.
After buying breakfast, Feng Qingyi waited for the two in the dining room. But even as the food was getting cold, there was still no sign of them.
Growing impatient, Feng Qingyi went up to knock on their door again. Only then did the two leisurely come downstairs.
At the dining table, Feng Qingci quickly grabbed a bowl of wonton soup. "I\'ll have the wontons. You can have the steamed buns!"
"You eat this noodle soup, and this soy milk is for you too," Feng Qingyi said, pushing the items towards Qin Yuchuan.
Qin Yuchuan accepted them with a smile. "I like these very much."
Feng Qingci grumbled, "Show-offs die young!"
"It\'s already 9 o\'clock. Don\'t you need to go to work?" Feng Qingyi asked.
Feng Qingci took a spoonful of wonton soup. "Not this week. I made plans with Xixi to go shopping today. Do you two want to join us?"
"I\'d rather not get involved. You go by yourself!" Feng Qingyi suspected he had ulterior motives.
Feng Qingci spoke slowly, "I just thought you might be tired of wearing the same few outfits every day. I thought I\'d take you to buy some new clothes."
Feng Qingyi retorted, "...Do you really think I\'d believe that? I bet you just want to use my shopping card!"
Feng Qingci admitted, "Let me borrow it, won\'t you?"
"It\'s in the drawer of my dressing table. Go get it yourself!" Feng Qingyi relented.
After successfully finding the shopping card, Feng Qingci hurriedly left.
Only Feng Qingyi and Qin Yuchuan remained in the dining room.
Feng Qingyi said, "My brother is always like this. Don\'t take it personally."
"He\'s quite interesting, actually," Qin Yuchuan remarked.
Feng Qingyi complained, "What\'s interesting about him? He\'s just annoying every day."
Qin Yuchuan said, "It\'s good that he\'s here to take care of you. I\'d be worried if you were alone."
"Him, take care of me? More like I\'m taking care of him," Feng Qingyi grumbled.
Qin Yuchuan chuckled, "Whether you\'re taking care of him or he\'s taking care of you, this arrangement is good."
"I just remembered something. Do you recall Qian Jue, whom I mentioned to you before?" Feng Qingyi asked.
Qin Yuchuan nodded, "Yes, what about him?"
Feng Qingyi continued, "I suspect he has some connection with Master Guang\'an. They might both be from another world."
"What puzzles me is that every time I go there, he\'s waiting for me. I can sense that he means me no harm."
"He even gave me a jade stone, saying it could save my life in times of crisis. He also gave me a tea house that had gone out of business."
Qin Yuchuan pondered for a while. "So you suspect he has ulterior motives?"
"But I don\'t have anything he could be after. Unless he just wants me to bring him food, drinks, and toys," Feng Qingyi said, confused.
Qin Yuchuan replied, "If he has any hidden agenda, he\'ll tell you eventually. For now, just observe and be careful. If anything happens, you can go to my mother for help."
"Alright, I understand. By the way, doesn\'t your friend Shangguan Yi have a cousin?" Feng Qingyi suddenly remembered what Xu Linghe had said.
Qin Yuchuan thought for a moment. "I believe he does. Why do you ask?"
"I heard she likes you, and Shangguan Yi seems to want to set you up with her."
Qin Yuchuan smiled, "Qingqi, are you jealous?"
"I\'m not! I was just asking," Feng Qingyi protested.
Qin Yuchuan patted Feng Qingyi\'s head. "I met his cousin a few times when we were children, that\'s all."
"I have you now, so I won\'t get involved with other women. You can have more confidence in me."
Feng Qingyi took a sip of soy milk. "I really was just asking casually. You don\'t need to explain so much."
"Qingqi, don\'t overthink things. Before I met you, I never thought about getting married, nor did I have any entanglements with other women."
Qin Yuchuan\'s gaze was tender and affectionate, his voice soft and magnetic.
Feng Qingyi hugged Qin Yuchuan\'s arm. "...Me too."
"You too, what?" Qin Yuchuan turned to face her.
Feng Qingyi glared at him. "You know exactly what I mean. Why are you asking?"
"Alright, I won\'t ask. Since we\'ve finished eating, why don\'t you go rest? I\'ll clean up here."
