Damn it, I'm surrounded by childhood sweethearts-Chapter 357 - 260. Catching a cheater in the act

It was between five and six in the morning, and since it was the summer solstice, it was already dimly light outside.

Every time Xu Qingfan slept in a new place, he would naturally wake up particularly early the next day, no matter how late he had gone to bed the night before.

He thought it was because the hotel bed was too soft; his whole body sunk into it while sleeping. It was fine for a short rest, but sleeping all night like that made him feel especially tired.

When Xu Qingfan opened his eyes, the first thing he looked towards was the window. He had not drawn the curtains the night before, and the gentle white light filtered through the glass, bidding him good morning.

His brain was already fully awake, but since the air conditioner was set to 16 degrees, he did not really want to kick off the covers and get out of bed.

Xu Qingfan reached with his left hand for the cellphone on the bedside table, only then realizing that his right hand was being compressed by some object. After a night of pressure, his whole arm had gone numb, which was why he had not noticed it until just now.

He turned his head to look; a girl in a pink cartoon pajama was curled up on the bed like a shrimp, using his right arm as a pillow. Because the room was so cold and she was not covered by a blanket, her hands were full of tiny, clearly visible bumps.

Having anticipated this, just by seeing the figure, Xu Qingfan recognized the girl, so he wasn’t startled.

"Looks like Lin Wanning wants to get her butt spanked again," Xu Qingfan gently swept the girl’s hair off her cheek, and after seeing the faint smile on her face, he smiled as well.

Although he was annoyed that Lin Wanning had not kept her promise, waking up to such a healing smile improved his mood.

Perhaps affected by the glaring light, she shrank her head and buried her face into Xu Qingfan’s armpit.

He gave the still sleeping girl a helpless and heart-aching glance, wondering how she could still sleep in such cold.

Xu Qingfan slowly withdrew his numb arm. However, this movement seemed like a stone thrown into a calm lake as an electric tingling spread from his right arm through his entire body, making him grimace in discomfort.

After finally retrieving his hand and shaking his arm, the tingling sensation quickly vanished as quickly as it had come.

Seemly upset at having her "pillow" taken away, the girl was very grouchy, her head on autopilot, she commandeered half his pillow with a kick of her small foot.

Now face to face, the girl’s fragrant hair was refreshing, and Lin Wanning apparently still not satisfied, turned again, draping her hands and feet atop him.

Xu Qingfan gently butted his forehead against Lin Wanning’s, and seeing no reaction from the girl, he did it again.

That stirred Lin Wanning, she opened her eyes groggily, looking like she hadn’t quite woken up, and said, "Brother Qing Fan, stop it~ Let Ningning sleep a while longer."

After speaking, she closed her eyes again.

"Lin Wanning!" Xu Qingfan called her name softly but sternly.

Startled, Lin Wanning shivered, opened her eyes, and reflexively said, "Brother Qing Fan, I didn’t crawl under the blankets!"

Her unblinking eyes stared at Xu Qing Fan, her expression pitiful, she looked utterly appealing.

"If you didn’t crawl under the blankets, then who is this person on the bed, a beautiful ghost?" Xu Qingfan pinched her chilly cheek, pretending to be very angry.

Speaking of which, her cheeks felt ice-cold, just like a ghost that had just come out of the morgue.

"Brother Qing Fan, I didn’t crawl under the blankets... I slept outside, without a blanket!" Lin Wanning frantically explained, but her voice became quite humorous as Xu Qing Fan pulled and stretched it.

Xu Qingfan couldn’t help but laugh, not sure if he was laughing at the comical sight of Lin Wanning in front of him or her absurd justifications.

"Brother Qing Fan, I did not crawl under the blankets!" the girl said aggrievedly, pointing to herself still outside the covers.

"Playing word games with me, huh?" Xu Qingfan raised his hand and smacked her bottom hard.

"Ow!" Lin Wanning pouted, covering the spot she had just been spanked.

"Look at your arms, they’re freezing; even a ghost isn’t as cold as you!" Xu Qingfan rubbed her arms with his warm hands while scolding.

"Hehe~Not cold," Lin Wanning said cheerfully, seeing that brother Qing Fan was not angry with her.

"Achoo~" But the very next second, she sneezed loudly from the cold.

"See what you’re going to do tomorrow if you catch a cold or a fever; I’ll leave you in the hotel alone and the rest of us five will go out!" Xu Qingfan’s gaze was both disdainful and sympathetic.

"I... Achoo~" Lin Wanning hadn’t finished speaking when another big sneeze cut her off.

"Come in and warm up, you’re really going to be the death of me," Xu Qingfan opened the blanket and pulled Lin Wanning in.

"Brother Qing Fan is the... Achoo~... best."

Lin Wanning snuggled in, wrapping her arms around Xu Qingfan’s waist, her ice-cold hands sneaking under his pajamas to warm his back, her feet also busy, nestled warmly between his legs.

Finally, she buried her face into his neck, took a deep breath, and felt that the night’s air conditioning wasn’t in vain.

"Brother Qing Fan, you are so warm."

As her small hands wandered on his back, the warm breath on his neck, a sensitive spot, made him feel ticklish all over.
