There were people all around them, shoulder to shoulder. Everyone was shouting and cheering.
Song Fengwan looked up quietly and tiptoed, her neck aching.
Fu Chen seemed to sense something and had already left.
“The boots are very thick and don’t hurt. You’ll feel more comfortable this way.” Fu Chen’s tone was ambiguous.
“I’m fine.” It was just that her neck felt a little sore from raising it the whole time.
After the revelry just now, the surrounding people were even more excited and fervent. It seemed like they had been infected by the lively atmosphere, and young couples were hugging and kissing everywhere around them.
Song Fengwan’s face seemed to be burning as she leaned her forehead against Fu Chen’s chest, her heart pounding.
“Wanwan…” Fu Chen called out to her in a low voice.
“Huh?”
Before Song Fengwan could look up, he actually lowered his head and kissed the top of her head…
Her eyelashes fluttered, and her face flushed.
Her head was spinning, and she didn’t even know what was happening…
Only when the surrounding people started to party did Fu Chen let go of her and pull her out of the crowd. The pace of his footsteps was fast, and Song Fengwan was panting heavily. The air around her was dry and cold. When she breathed in, her whole body felt cold…

Fu Chen and Duan Linbai met up. They initially planned to take the mountain cable car back to the hotel. But everyone in this town seemed to be celebrating, and there was a stop notice posted on the cable car.
They had no choice but to find a hotel in the town for the night.
Huai Sheng was already sleepy, so Duan Linbai was carrying him, too tired to walk. This brat is definitely here to torment me.
Almost all the hotels in town were full. When they found one, there was only one room. Duan Linbai asked for it directly. “Huai Sheng and I will stay here. I really can’t walk anymore. You two should find another one.”
With his small body, carrying a child weighing around 50 pounds was even more tiring than carrying a gas tank. d.a.m.n it. I’m so tired that my poor waist is about to break.
Fu Chen could only continue looking for a hotel with Song Fengwan.
There were only three double rooms left in the next hotel.
Although Song Fengwan’s English was not bad, she could only understand some simple words. These people spoke with an accent, so she couldn’t understand what they were saying at all. Then she saw Fu Chen take out his ID card and hand it to the receptionist.
“Do you need mine?” She carried her ID and pa.s.sport around with her at all times since she was overseas.
“No need.”
“You don’t need to register me?”
“One person is enough to register a room with one single bed.”
Song Fengwan s.h.i.+vered. What does one single bed mean?
“There’s only one double room left.”
“We can go to another hotel…”
“He said that this place is the only one with an empty room in town. If we don’t sleep here, we won’t have anywhere to stay tonight.” Fu Chen spoke frankly and directly, not seeming to be lying at all.
Song Fengwan was dumbfounded.
This was different from the time they had gone to the ski resort. It was at least a suite with separate beds. How could they sleep in this double room?
The receptionist quickly helped them check in and even gave them breakfast vouchers.
Fu Chen thanked her and walked straight to the elevator.
Song Fengwan braced herself and followed him. How am I going to spend the night?
***
When the two reached the room, as the heating was on, Fu Chen took off his scarf, goggles, and coat…
He tilted his head and looked at the person still standing at the door.
“Why are you in a daze? Come in.”
Song Fengwan looked around the room as she walked in. The interior design was decorated in a European style. In the middle of the room was a huge two-meter wide bed with white bed sheets. Placed on it was a bouquet of roses and a hotel greeting card.
There was also a bottle of red wine on the bedside table.
The toilet was connected to the bathroom. It was just a few square meters, but only a layer of frosted gla.s.s separated it from the outside. From the outside, they could vaguely see the furnis.h.i.+ngs inside.
How am I supposed to shower and go to the bathroom like this?
“This room isn’t bad.” Song Fengwan smiled awkwardly. In fact, the interior design was rather nice.
“Yes, the bed is very big.” Fu Chen raised his eyebrows.
Song Fengwan choked. Who asked you about the bed?
Fu Chen took a clothes hanger from the closet beside him and hung up the clothes. Then he grabbed the kettle and prepared to boil water…
Song Fengwan walked around and rummaged around until she opened the bedside table. When she saw what was inside, her face flushed. What’s wrong with these hotels?
“What are you looking at?” Fu Chen walked over.
Bam! Song Fengwan slammed the drawer shut. “Nothing.”
“You’re not taking off your clothes?” Fu Chen raised his eyebrows. “It’s almost one. Aren’t you tired?”
“I’m fine.”
Fu Chen nodded without comment. He turned around and called Duan Linbai to ask him how the two were settling in.
Song Fengwan reached out to take off her scarf and hat. Her hair had been flattened by the scarf and looked a little ugly against her head.
Song Fengwan s.h.i.+elded her head and went to the bathroom to look in the mirror. She grabbed her hair a few times, trying to make it look fluffy.
Even after trying a few times, her hair was still flat. She took a rubber band and tied her hair up into a bun. When she turned around, she saw Fu Chen standing at the bathroom door.
“There’s a strand of hair by your ear that hasn’t been tied up.” Fu Chen pointed at her right ear.
Song Fengwan touched it. There was indeed a strand of hair. She casually twisted it up, feeling a little embarra.s.sed.
“You can shower first,” she said while leaving the bathroom.
…
When Fu Chen went out, Song Fengwan had already taken off her coat and was wearing a soft pink turtleneck sweater and black tight pants. She was also wearing a pair of warm, thick boots that went up to her calves, making her legs look slender and straight.
“Go wash up. I’ll sleep first.” Fu Chen narrowed his eyes, his expression calm as always.
Song Fengwan bit her lips and washed up simply.
When she came out, Fu Chen was leaning against the bed and playing with his phone. She sat beside the bed, her heart beating fast, as though it was about to jump out of her throat.
Besides a bed, there was only a stool in the room. No matter how she looked at it, they would be sleeping together tonight.
“Turn off the lights?” Fu Chen suddenly asked.
“Don’t!” Song Fengwan blurted out.
Why turn off the lights?
It will be pitch-black. That’s too scary.
“Then, you…” Fu Chen put down his phone. “… should hurry up and get under the blanket. It’s quite cold outside. ”
Song Fengwan removed her boots, lifted the blanket, and got in carefully. As she was wearing a lot of clothes, she didn’t feel warm when she got under the blanket.
“It’s not even the first time. Why are you nervous?” Fu Chen tilted his head and looked at her. The bed’s very big, and there’s enough s.p.a.ce for two adults to sleep between them. What is she afraid of?
“I’m not nervous.” Last time on the mountain, even though there was a heatable brick bed, it was one person and one blanket each. What is this mess now?
Fu Chen raised his hand and turned off the bedside lamp by his side. The light in the room instantly dimmed. His body s.h.i.+fted downward, and he lay down.
Song Fengwan gulped nervously. She was wearing too many clothes and couldn’t move at all. It was even more uncomfortable to sleep, so she decided to start undressing under the blanket.
Fu Chen sized her up from the corner of his eye…
She took out a pair of pants and then a sweater…
Exactly how many pieces of clothing did she wear?
When she finally felt comfortable, she lay down. Half of her body was lying right on the edge of the bed, and she didn’t dare move an inch toward Fu Chen. Right now, we’re wearing clothes under the blanket and purely chatting!
“Wanwan…” Fu Chen suddenly spoke.
Song Fengwan’s body trembled. “Yes?”
“Give me your hand.”
“What’s wrong?” Song Fengwan hesitated and reached her arm out to him. He grabbed her slightly cold hand.
“Why is it so cold?”
“It’ll warm up later. I’ll just cover it for a while…”
He grabbed her hand and pressed it against his chest.
“Are you warm now?” His voice became deeper.
“Yes.” Song Fengwan nodded silently. Although he was still wearing a woolen sweater, even now, with her palm pressed against it, she still felt warm.
She s.h.i.+fted her body and adjusted her posture…
The surroundings were very close, and they could vaguely hear the sounds of the revelry outside…
It was lively and noisy. This place was like a small world isolated from the world.
There were only the two of them.
“Third Brother, other than the first time at my house, have we met before?” Song Fengwan felt that his voice was exceptionally familiar.
“Yes, we have.”
“Where?” Why can’t I remember?
“At the bar in Yuncheng. Do you remember the time you declared that you would woo me?”
Song Fengwan’s breathing stopped, and even her body stiffened.
What the h.e.l.l?
How does he know?
“At the time, you went to the restroom and walked into the wrong place. You entered the men’s room, and I led you out.”
Song Fengwan had drunk so much back then that she couldn’t remember many things anymore. After his reminder, she pieced everything together.
She had thought she was dreaming about many things as her head was spinning.
“Third Brother, that day, actually…”
“Wanwan…”
“Huh?” Song Fengwan’s mind exploded. Why did he have to see something so embarra.s.sing?
Everyone hoped to have a gentle and lady-like image in front of their beloved. Song Fengwan was the same. She always hoped that her image would be the best.
How could Fu Chen have heard that? Her mind was blank, and she couldn’t think at all.
“You said you wanted to woo me.. Give it a try.”
