CHAPTER 368: 0233 THERE IS LIGHT SNOW IN THE SKY, AND THE MOOD ALSO HAS LIGHT SNOW.

Yun Qian gently pushed against Xu Chang’an’s shoulder.

This time, Xu Chang’an let go.

He glanced at his own palm, showing a hint of intoxication, but quickly regained his composure.

"Silly girl, from now on, when lighting a brazier, there shouldn’t be more than two in a room, and you must ventilate regularly. Lighting up the whole room like you did... Are you tired of living?" Xu Chang’an said.

He was clever.

Because he was doing something bullying and instructive, he couldn’t use his housekeeper status, choosing not to call her Miss but rather "silly girl".

Yun Qian felt that direct slight pain, lifted her head, and gazed at him with an uncontrollable moist brightness in her eyes.

Upon reflection, being bullied was commonplace.

Dreaming... truly is wonderful.

If it were outside, the young man who always upheld modesty would never do something as "presumptuous" as this for a housekeeper.

"I understand, I will be careful using the brazier." Yun Qian covered her face with one hand, feeling the increasing warmth, yet her expression remained calm: "But... like this?"

"To be honest?" Xu Chang’an blinked a bit more frequently, glancing sideways: "I’ve wanted to try this for a long time... there was no opportunity in reality, so I didn’t want to miss it in a dream."

"How come there was no opportunity?" Yun Qian was puzzled.

"The real Miss Yun already knows how to use Fire Stone, she wouldn’t get smoked by a brazier." Xu Chang’an spread his hands: "So there’s no chance to teach her this."

"But compared to Fire Stone, I prefer the brazier." Yun Qian said earnestly.

"That doesn’t matter." Xu Chang’an rubbed his hands together and asked, "Does it hurt?"

He really hadn’t held back just now.

"It tickles a bit." Yun Qian said truthfully.

"I’ll give you a rub... never mind." Xu Chang’an started to speak but met Yun Qian’s clear eyes, swallowing the remaining words back.

He also felt he couldn’t be treated as if he were a human anymore.

The girl wants to be warm with him, he resists in every way, yet now he’s seizing the chance to do something so defenceless.

Dumb and bad, that’s exactly what he’s supposed to be.

"Are you... happy?" Yun Qian looked at him, thinking men are really peculiar creatures, easily satisfied and pleased, unlike her, who is greedy.

"Just a little bit." Xu Chang’an’s smile was uncontrollable at the corners of his lips.

"Don’t you think this is a dream?" Yun Qian asked again.

"Sometimes I forget this is a dream." Xu Chang’an walked over, re-hung the hand warmer for Yun Qian, his gaze dodging as he said, "In any case, the brazier... try not to use it if you can avoid it."

Yun Qian tilted her head in thought, "But we don’t have Fire Stone here, only a brazier."

"Then... light one fireplace, no more than that." Xu Chang’an yielded a little.

"I don’t like this floral coat, at least not now, I don’t want to wear it." Yun Qian stared at Xu Chang’an.

At this moment, Xu Chang’an suddenly realized, he shouldn’t have been so mischievous as to bully the girl, now he couldn’t even say no.

Who allowed him to be at fault.

"Whatever you say, what do you want to wear, I’ll go get it for you." Xu Chang’an sighed.

"I’ll do it myself." Yun Qian said, reaching out to pick up the floral coat, as if fearful Xu Chang’an would actually throw it away, she carefully hid it, and then... took out a few pieces of clothing and spread them on the couch.

Xu Chang’an moved the brazier closer to her and blocked the draft.

Yun Qian loosened her long hair, took a piece of underclothing and looked back at Xu Chang’an.

Xu Chang’an: "..."

The room suddenly fell into a period of silence.

"Why not come over?" Yun Qian frowned.

Xu Chang’an stiffened his face and said, "Didn’t you say you’d do it yourself?"

"I’ll get the clothes myself, you help me dress." Yun Qian said seriously.

Xu Chang’an’s eyebrows trembled slightly.

He couldn’t hold it any longer.

He wanted to laugh, yet couldn’t because Yun Qian was spoiled by him and he couldn’t laugh, only sighed deeply, walked over, took the intimate clothing in Yun Qian’s hand for a young lady, and paused.

It was too thin.

Xu Chang’an extended a finger and suggested, "Miss, at least the undergarment should be a bit thicker?"

"Undergarment... good." Yun Qian nodded.

Xu Chang’an breathed a sigh of relief, turned around to fetch a warm winter undergarment, and then began to dress Yun Qian.

Soon after.

Xu Chang’an finally tied up Yun Qian’s long hair, and as he released his hand, Yun Qian looked down at her attire of azure and red.

A long azure gauze skirt, with a rose-red satin jacket, snow-white fur edges sewn on, a pale azure ribbon around the waist, further accentuating the female figure.

Yun Qian spun in place, the gauze skirt and jacket edges swayed: "Does it look nice?"

"Yes, nice." Xu Chang’an’s tone carried a mechanical hint, yet it didn’t reveal any excitement, as if it were perfunctory.

Yun Qian hesitated for a moment, but upon giving Xu Chang’an a deep look, she smiled and didn’t point it out.

Xu Chang’an: "..."

Miss Yun really sees through everything, huh.

Indeed, since the onset of the hot springs, he hadn’t stopped feeling his heart stir, only he could... pretend to be serious.

If it hadn’t been pushed to the limit, he wouldn’t have "striked" Yun Qian.

Bringing out the floral coat for her to wear was also an attempt to make her look funny, less attractive, to suppress his heart’s movement.

Could Yun Qian have seen through even this?

Xu Chang’an once again felt the girl in the dream knows everything, not allowing him to get his way is only natural.

Must distract himself.

Speaking of which, since the snow started, the daylight has actually become brighter, through the window, you can feel the colors outside.

He reached out and pushed open the window, a swift cool breeze lifted his black hair, accompanied by cold snowflakes brushing his face, Xu Chang’an’s pupils widened.

In front of him, snow clusters flew down, fluttering from the sky, the once verdant courtyard had long been turned into a blanket of white.

It was a clean, clear color.

The scenery was beautiful.

Xu Chang’an hadn’t expected the snow to accumulate so quickly, in the blink of an eye covering the entire island.

"What is it?" Yun Qian noticed Xu Chang’an staring blankly at the window, followed him closer, but as the cold wind blew, she clung tightly to Xu Chang’an’s arm.

"Miss." Xu Chang’an gazed at the slow-falling snow, only feeling this patch of pale world purifying his soul, unsure if it’s the snow that’s beautiful, or the girl’s comforting presence that makes the snow beautiful.

It should be the former.

"Miss, shall we... take a walk?" Xu Chang’an took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, watching that wisp of rising white vapor outside the window.

Childhood memories surged forward.

"I’m afraid of the cold." Yun Qian remained silent then reminded him.

"With me here." Xu Chang’an’s eyes were fixed outside the window, as the saying goes... it’s a very happy thing to have someone with you watching the snow.

Yun Qian’s Liu Mei arched a little.

Outside the window, the falling snow suddenly froze for a moment, then slowly descended, merging into the snow-covered ground, disappearing without a trace.

The girl looked down at the snow-white fur sewn at the edges of her clothing, then lifted her head: "Compared to my clothes, do you actually prefer... watching the snow?"

She regretted turning rain into snow even more.
