‘Why is this guy standing behind me? Watching me? Or is he up to something?’

When he didn’t hear Yan Chengyu moving around, An Yan’s heart tightened and tightened again, and his hands unconsciously clenched at this point.

Suddenly, behind him, Yan Chengyu sat down beside An Yan, first pulling the blanket for him, and then, not knowing what to do, he lifted the blanket again and examined An Yan’s arm.

At first, when Yan Chengyu lifted the blanket, An Yan was startled and was about to jump up, but then he heard Yan Chengyu’s words, “Luckily, there’s no sunburnt.” Only then did he decided to continue pretending to be sleeping.

‘Are you sick? I’m not a woman.’

An Yan muttered irritably in his heart, but he seemed to be in a good mood again.

“He is still angry, I guess. How should I talk to him tomorrow? Apologise? But what if he just ignores me and leaves?”

Yan Chengyu said, scratching his head in anguish, but he couldn’t think of a good way.

An Yan, who had heard Yan Chengyu’s intention to apologize to himself, froze. He did not expect Yan Chengyu to take the initiative to apologise.

“Forget it. Just talk about it tomorrow when I see him!” Yan Chengyu sat up and looked at An Yan for a while in a trance.

The sudden lack of movement made An Yan start to get nervous again, his heart beating straight up.

‘No sound again? My heart won’t be able to take it if he does it so many times.’

“An Yan, do you hate me that much?” Yan Chengyu touched An Yan’s face and asked in a low and sad voice. He caressed An Yan’s face with great tenderness and there was softness in his eyes.

‘That is certainly true, isn’t it!’ An Yan said in his heart.

However, after all the recent events flashed into his mind, he found that he didn’t hate Yan Chengyu as much as he thought he did, and sometimes he was even attracted to Yan Chengyu’s dominance; he just didn’t want to admit it.

Just like the time when Yan Chengyu and Yan Xingwei were arguing, he had been watching Yan Chengyu in fascination before he noticed what they had said, otherwise he wouldn’t have happened to walk out and scold them.

“I know I have a bad temper and I like to tease you, but I just want to get your attention, I can’t help it! It’s the first time I’ve taken the initiative to pursue someone. You’re older than me and have a higher status in the army than I do, so no matter what I do to you, what else can I do but play tricks on you? I can’t really force you to sleep with me, can I?”

‘How dare you.’

An Yan was furious, but his mood swung again, not in anger, but in affection. He finally knew Yan Chengyu approached him not out of curiosity, but because he liked him and wanted to get in touch with him.

“And I’m such a wimp! I’m saying these things to someone who’s asleep! There’s something wrong with me.” Again, he started scratching his head in annoyance.

“Better go stand guard!” Sighing, he got up, but kissed An Yan on the cheek as he left, saying, “Good night.”

Yan Chengyu had left for a minute or so before An Yan opened his eyes in a dumbfounded manner.

He touched the spot where he had just been kissed by Yan Chengyu and suddenly blushed.

“Why did you sneak into the tent, this brat!” Red cheeks covered An Yan’s face.

However, he felt some warmth and became a little strange. “I shouldn’t, really like him, right?”

An Yan, who had finally sensed his feelings, had an urge that he wanted to die. He had been hiding for so long, but in the end he had not escaped Yan Chengyu’s clutches.

What An Yan did not know was that someone outside had a smile on his lips and poured out a soft voice, “So you’re really not asleep.”
