Chapter 57: Alluring

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation     Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bai Lin’s circadian rhythm that was cultivated from being in the mercenary group for years woke her up at 6:30 a.m. despite her sleeping close to 2 a.m.

 

After she got up, she took a quick shower and was ready to go downstairs to pack up and continue to the next mission.

When she passed by Yan Ruo’s door, she remembered that the knife that she used as a prop was still with him after she worked with him yesterday.

She knocked on the door, but there was no response. She knocked on it twice more. “He’s not up yet?”

Yan Ruo had always woken up early previously. Could it be that he was too tired from yesterday?

 

Bai Lin felt that it was possible. Just as she was about to leave, the door opened.

Yan Ruo’s bathrobe was wide open as he carried some hot steam with him. There were even some water droplets on his strong chest. His semi-long hair was wet and he was drying his hair lazily. He turned to look at Bai Lin. “Come in and talk?”

Bai Lin’s gaze shifted away from his chest, feeling a little guilty in conscience for some reason. “Nah, I’m here to get the knife.”

This was what it meant to look thin when one was dressed but muscular when one was undressed. The man looked fragile and weak, so it was s surprise that the muscles under his clothes were so sexy.

 

Bai Lin felt her face heat up. When she went on missions with her pals, she had seen a lot of pecs too, but she had never been embarrassed.

Seeing Bai Lin like this, there was a quick flash of smile in Yan Ruo’s eyes. He slightly leaned over to move closer to Bai Lin.

When the pleasant smell of his shampoo greeted Bai Lin’s nose, she subconsciously wanted to step back, but Yan Ruo pressed down on her shoulder.

His large hand, which felt rather powerful, slowly moved over.

[F*ck, a strike right at the opening of the show.]

[Passerby here, I just entered the livestream. I don’t know much. Doesn’t Best Actor Yan stay away from women? What is he doing?]

 

[If I haven’t been watching the livestream and known that Bai Lin came out from her room, I’d have thought that the two of them had slept together.]

[Help, help! Is this something I can watch without paying? My nose is bleeding.]

[Are Bai Lin and Yan Ruo going to kiss?]

[So exciting so early in the morning. No wonder he’s titled the sexiest man in the world. Hehe, I like it.]

6:30 a.m. was the time with the least internet traffic, but Traveler’s live stream channel was still bustling with activity. Hundreds of thousands of people around the world were fully focused on the man and woman on the screen.

Bai Lin felt that she was not even as nervous as she was now compared to when someone pointed a gun at her. It was not that she had any other thoughts, but the atmosphere was so flirtatious that it made her stiffen subconsciously. She seemed to have heard a deep chuckle. In the next second, a finger brushed past her ear. Yan Ruo backed away holding a ball of red fur in his hand. He gently twisted it and blew it away.

“I’ve put the knife back.” Yan Ruo smiled. “Do you want to come in and have some water?”

Bai Lin shook her head and quickly left.

 

Zhou Guang and Jin Ran also had the habit of waking up early. They were looking for something to eat in the kitchen when they saw Bai Lin come down.

Jin Ran was a little surprised and asked, “Jiejie, your face is so red. Are you not feeling well?”

Bai Lin walked to the sink and got some cold water to wash her face. She mumbled, “I’m fine. Maybe I drank too much hot water.”

Zhou Guang rarely saw Bai Lin being flustered like this. While he was observing from the side with his arms crossed, Yan Ruo had also entered the kitchen after getting dressed.

He had changed into the outdoor adventure clothes that the production team had prepared for all the guests. The clothes were designed to be tight around the wrists and ankles, wrapping one’s body up securely. The cut was simple and clean. It made Yan Ruo who had a cool temperament to begin with feel a little more hard-to-get.

Bai Lin glanced at him and remembered what had happened just earlier, so she took more water to wash her face.

Zhou Guang suspiciously looked back and forth between Yan Ruo and Bai Lin. Yan Ruo crossed his arms and looked at Bai Lin with a deep gaze. He seemed to be very happy.

Zhou Guang went over and snapped, “You bullied my sister? Why is she blushing the moment she sees you?”

The corners of Yan Ruo’s lips quickly curled up. “I didn’t bully her. Maybe the weather is too warm.”

The villa had air conditioning and the temperature was maintained at 17 degrees Celsius. How could it be warm?

Zhou Guang wanted to ask more questions, but Yan Ruo had already gone over to help Bai Lin with her cooking, so he decided to just let it be.

Bai Lin’s group had already packed up and was ready to leave by 8 a.m.

Bai Shao who was in Bai Xi’s group and Zhao Yuan were still lying in the soft bed. Others who went to wake them up were actually scolded.

 

Bai Shao asked, “Why should we be up so early? The missions are there, and they won’t run away. Besides, what’s the point of Bai Lin and the others leaving so fast? They’ll still have to do the quest together with us..”
