CHAPTER 357: AFTER MODIFICATION: CHAPTER 127 [ANCIENT IMMORTAL TEXT] (6200)_3

Come on, it might be a bit tiring.

But afterwards, it won’t actually hurt that much, to the extent you can’t even walk steadily... You had fun together for a night, it’s not like you stabbed her!

·

Watching Chen Yan spacing out, Lu Sisi curiously asked a couple of questions. Chen Yan didn’t hide anything and shared his thoughts with her. After hearing it, Lu Sisi was stunned.

Then she laughed and said, "Do novels really describe it like that?"

"Yeah, quite a lot of male-oriented novels describe it like that." Chen Yan countered, "How do the novels you women read describe it?"

Lu Sisi blushed, but she was quite compliant with Chen Yan. Even though the topic made her really shy, she still answered, "Well... I haven’t read many female-oriented novels, but it seems like they describe... the man letting out a ’low roar’ at the end."

A low roar?

Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, then laughed so hard he almost rolled off the bed.

It’s not like doing farm work, what’s with the cow sounds.

"See, no matter if they’re male- or female-oriented, those authors write some unreliable stuff."

·

Chen Yan also took a shower. When he came out, they got dressed and left the room hand in hand.

During checkout, Chen Yan cheerfully paid for the extra half-day.

They walked along the road for a while, then found a small street to wander around. They picked a restaurant selling Anqing wontons and walked in.

Lu Sisi got a small bowl, Chen Yan ordered a big one, each added two boiled eggs, specifically requesting them to be soft-boiled.

After devouring the wontons and eggs, Chen Yan felt like he had regained his lost nutrients.

Actually... what left Chen Yan a bit speechless was that Lu Sisi seemed in better shape than he did.

She didn’t look weak at all while walking, but Chen Yan felt a bit sore in the waist and legs.

Well, after all, in those activities, it’s usually the man who does most of the work.

"Actually, it was a bit tiring too," Lu Sisi whispered in Chen Yan’s ear.

"What?"

"Well, at that time when you were on top of me, it was a bit hard to breathe, and... it felt like I was going to be crushed."

After saying this, Lu Sisi’s face turned red. She used her spoon to bring one of the wontons in her bowl to Chen Yan’s mouth: "I can’t finish it, you eat it."

·

Summing up the day and night they spent together, Chen Yan could describe his feelings with two words: Happy!

It wasn’t just the physical and physiological pleasure—although there was that.

More importantly, it was the mental and emotional happiness.

It felt like he had truly fallen for this girl. Together, even doing the most boring things, saying the most mundane words, they would still laugh and have fun.

Laughing like two fools.

If there’s someone who can turn you into a fool, and when you’re together, she joins you in being a fool.

Such feelings are probably very blissful.

·

In the evening, no matter how reluctant he was, Chen Yan still had to take Lu Sisi back to school.

Standing under the girls’ dormitory building, they were not the only couple bidding reluctant farewells.

Under the streetlights, under the trees... there stood pairs of couples, as if they were parting like the legendary Cowboy and Weaver Girl.

Back when Chen Yan was in school, he was single and always scoffed at such scenes: It’s only a night apart! Go back, sleep, and by morning, you’re together in class again.

Now, he was almost turning into such a fool himself.

Lu Sisi hesitated for a moment and whispered, "How about... I don’t go back tonight?"

Chen Yan was tempted but then shook his head after thinking for a moment, "Forget it, you should go back. I have things to do all day tomorrow—some important stuff. I won’t have time to be with you during the day."

Lu Sisi, who never wanted to trouble anyone, nodded obediently: "Okay. Then you go back early and get some rest."

·

By the time Chen Yan got home, it was almost ten at night.

Gu Qingyi was sitting on the couch in the living room, holding a bag of chips, watching a variety show on the Xiaomi TV.

Chen Yan took a glance at the TV screen after entering and saw an old lady in heavy makeup who looked about seventy...

"What variety show is this?"

"Some kind of ’Blossoming,’ it seems to be quite popular lately." Gu Qingyi pointed at the old lady on TV: "I really like her, she has a certain energy."

Chen Yan wasn’t particularly impressed. He was neutral about Granny Qing and knew variety shows were scripted with defined roles.

But the dumbest thing to do would be to kill someone’s harmless enthusiasm by pretending to be all-knowing.

So, Chen Yan decided to keep his mouth shut and refrained from commenting.

He walked into the kitchen to pour himself a big glass of water, downed it in one go. When he turned around, he saw Gu Qingyi standing in the kitchen doorway, tilting her head with a somewhat complex and odd expression, staring at him.

"You’re looking at me like there’s a flower growing on my nose."

"That metaphor you used is often found in Gulong’s novels," Gu Qingyi replied slowly.

After a pause, she shook her head and said, "But you do have flowers on your face—peach blossoms!"

Chen Yan: "..."

"Why don’t you use your Qi Observation Skill to see your own fortune? It’s all pink."

Chen Yan didn’t want to continue that topic and turned to walk out of the kitchen, sitting down at the dining table.

"Tell me the plan for the next few days." Chen Yan waved at Gu Qingyi.

Gu Qingyi picked up a can of Coke from the kitchen and then sat down at the dining table too: "Okay, go ahead."

"I’ve prepared all the ceremonial items for the Nether Marriage. Tomorrow, I’ll check everything over again."
