Chapter 228: Feeling like we’re total troublemakers
I can feel the person behind me breathing more evenly—like they finally found some Zen or just remembered to breathe.
In the darkness, Hu Yu Ying shifted her body and faced Dragon Brother squarely.
She gently traced his brow with her fingertips—probably trying to summon some ancient beauty spell or just playing.
She then stretched out her hand, took his palm, and placed it on her waist—like, “Come on, dragon bro, give me some cuddles.”
Done with her sneaky moves, she nudged her nose against Dragon Brother’s nose—quietly, like a happy little fox.
Then, in the next moment, her hand resting on her waist slipped around, hugging her tight as if she’s the cutest kitten in the alley.
With a gentle force, she pressed her forehead against his.
“Dragon Bro, are you still awake?” Hu Yu Ying blinked her big, curious eyes.
Dragon Brother, half annoyed, gently poked her lips with a finger:
“Just sleep already.”
She rested her tiny head on his arm, pulled into his embrace, feeling all warm and safe like a bug in a spider web.
She burrowed her little nose into his chest and found a comfy position.
Slowly, she closed her eyes—peace at last.
But wait—Hu Yu Ying suddenly opened her eyes again, catching a whiff of something. Her bright eyes blinked in the dark.
“Curiosity will get you in trouble,” Dragon Brother said, grabbing her unruly hand.
His palm covered her eyes: “If you don’t sleep now, don’t blame me for punishing you.”
Hu Yu Ying was still super curious about what kind of punishment Dragon Bro had in mind.
She leaned in and whispered close to his ear, “Dragon Bro, how are you going to punish Yu Ying?”
“You wanna know?”
She nodded eagerly: “Can I, Dragon Bro?”
In the next second…
A little white rabbit was squeaking softly…
“Are you being honest?” Dragon Brother choked in the dark.
Hu Yu Ying curled up and nodded obediently: “Honest.”
She rolled back under the blanket, then curled up again in Dragon Bro’s arms, voice tiny and a little pouty:
“Dragon Bro, you’re mean…”
In the darkness, Hu Yu Ying’s face flushed, her eyes shimmering with water—like a little fox, biting her lip charmingly, every move dripping with flirtation.
Listening to her slightly mournful, grievance-filled complaints, Dragon Brother stiffened.
His hand was clenched tight, sweat prickling his palm.
He held her tight in his arms.
“Hu Yu Ying, my little Yu Ying… Sometimes I really don’t know what to do with you…”
“I’m Dragon Bro’s Yu Ying, only Dragon Bro’s…”
After saying that, her nose itched so badly she couldn’t help but sneezed.
Dragon Brother pulled up the blanket, covering most of her small body, tucking everything in tight:
“Don’t catch a cold, or I’ll definitely punch you!”
Hu Yu Ying rubbed her nose: “I don’t want to get sick…”
Then she hugged Dragon Brother even tighter.
If she got sick, she couldn’t stay with him anymore…

In a small inn room,
Li Qing Xue lay on her bed, looking like she’d just committed a major crime: “My eyes are unclean! Unclean!”
Lin Wan Ning chuckled: “Who was staring so hard without blinking just now?”
Li Qing Xue hesitated—her curiosity was like Pandora’s box. Once opened, she couldn’t shut it:
“I feel… I feel like I’m gonna break… I just can’t handle it.”
Last time she fished into Dragon Brother’s pocket, she almost caught something—
Maybe she didn’t hold on tight enough. Now, with that little video as a reference, she could roughly estimate the diameter and circumference…
Just thinking about it made her unreasonably scared.
“What’s broken? You’re talking nonsense,” Lin Wan Ning softly questioned.
Li Qing Xue sensed her strange attitude and thought maybe she was just too shy to approach her for the first time.
She remembered her own first encounter—all new and confusing, feeling like her worldview was expanding, learning all sorts of weird stuff.
She hurriedly shook her head—best not to let this get out.
Ugh, she couldn’t stop thinking about those videos—her brain full of messy, embarrassing images.
The more she tried not to think about it, the more those uncomfortable scenes kept popping up in her mind.
Suddenly, she visualized herself with Dragon Brother—her cheeks flushed instantly.
She quickly patted her face, telling herself she wouldn’t be like that.
Seriously, way too embarrassing…
“Lin Wan Ning, you’re messing with my mind. I wanna tickle you,” Li Qing Xue finally turned her revenge towards Lin Wan Ning.
“I’m not! It’s you who wanted to know, and I just shared,” Lin Wan Ning said, acting innocent.
“But you didn’t tell me it was—”
“Details, details,” Li Qing Xue interrupted, giving her a mischievous look. “Too shameful!”
If it weren’t for her, she wouldn’t be so weird: “This kind of thing should be shown to Yu Ying… she needs to see it.”
Their playful bickering stopped as they caught the weight of those words.
“Show it to Yu Ying?”
“Haha, haha, Li Qing Xue, you’re so naughty,” Lin Wan Ning bit her lip with a teasing smile.
Li Qing Xue froze for a moment, then forcibly kept a straight face—she had to act like she wasn’t interested.
But inside, she really wanted to know more…
After all, Yu Ying probably needed to see something like that, right?
Dragon Brother, that tough-as-steel straight man—tsk tsk…
Lin Wan Ning covered her face: “Suddenly, I feel like we’re really bad people.”
“You’re scheming against my brother, I’m scheming against him too—he’s so d*mn hard to deal with.”
“I’m not! Wait, what did you just say?”
“Are you planning something for your brother?”
Li Qing Xue suddenly perked up—her curiosity wide open.
“What do you want to do? That bad stuff definitely isn’t good,” she said, eyes brimming with mischief and inquisitiveness.
Lin Wan Ning touched her forehead lightly and said: “I’m not telling you.”
“Hmph, if you won’t say, I don’t wanna know either,” Li Qing Xue pouted.
But the next moment, she leaned in again: “Are you really not gonna tell me?”
“Nope, this is my biggest secret. I won’t tell you,” Lin Wan Ning chuckled softly.
“Bah, I don’t wanna know at all,” Li Qing Xue turned her back and crossed her arms, waiting for Lin Wan Ning to coax her.
Halfway through her words, she grumbled—this woman was so irritating…
After turning off the lights, the room fell into complete darkness.
A faint light from outside the window illuminated the scene.
Lin Wan Ning’s confident eyes gradually calmed, her heart steadying as she whispered:
“I don’t want it to be like this either, but brother… I tried to forget how good you are, but I just can’t…”
“……”
【Spring Festival is over! Brothers and sisters, let’s all happily welcome the Year of the Snake! So many blessings and good wishes—I just want to be happy every day…】
