Chapter 316: Subtle Changes

"Of course!"

Those two unwavering words completely scattered the conflict in Shen Yan's heart.

With such a delicate and beautiful woman placed before him, even a legendary saint of self-restraint would likely be unable to hold back, let alone a vigorous young man like him.

Shen Yan raised his hand to gently stroke that pretty face; unlike Wu Yue'er and Hao Anqi, both of whom had exquisite melon-seed faces with triangular chins and narrow cheeks.

Chen Shanni had a round, oval face with full features, possessing a beauty that was plump and smooth, feeling incredibly soft and fleshy to the touch. Her eyebrows were standard, natural and soft, her pair of watery, large eyes were clear and bright, and her delicate nose was as lustrous as jade.

Having her cheeks stroked so intimately, Chen Shanni was incredibly shy; fortunately, being in the darkness kept her from fainting due to excessive nervousness.

It was just that her breathing inevitably became rapid.

How could it be like this? Just by having her face touched, she felt she could barely hold it together.

Immediately after, she felt Shen Yan moving closer to her bit by bit.

Shen Yan laid Chen Shanni flat, gently brushed aside the hair on her forehead, and then kissed her lightly, starting from her forehead, then to her eyes, nose, and cheeks...

Finally, her delicate, rosy lips.

"Mmm!"

Chen Shanni closed her eyes in bliss.

This was not the first time the two had kissed; they had accidentally touched before at the Chen residence, but it was nowhere near as passionate as this time, allowing one to clearly perceive the flavor of it.

That feeling was as if an electric current had spread throughout her entire body, making her completely intoxicated.

"Don't hold your breath, breathe through your nose," Shen Yan said in a soft, lingering voice.

"Oh, oh!"

As a novice, Chen Shanni was like a little lamb, lying there at a loss, her palms gripping the sheets tightly, and then, under Shen Yan's patient guidance, she gradually entered the swing of things.

Once she became familiar with the whole process, Chen Shanni gradually relaxed her body and mind, taking the initiative to open her mouth to respond passionately, enjoying this beautiful moment.

Before long, Shen Yan began to be unsatisfied with just this; his large hand brushed over the buttons of her pajamas one by one, stripping them away and tossing them aside, followed by her pajama pants, undershirt, and panties...

She usually dressed so conservatively that Shen Yan hadn't realized the good girl had such a good figure.

It was on par with Wu Yue'er's.

In this quiet night, Chen Shanni and Shen Yan lay on the bed just like that, the distance between them so close, and the relationship between the two also underwent a subtle change this night.

The next day, the sun was high.

Birds flew onto the branches early, chirping and singing, as if welcoming a brand new day.

The first ray of sunlight shone in through the curtains, warm and soft, illuminating the entire room with brightness.

Various items of clothing were scattered messily on the floor—a deep red pajama top, a gray T-shirt, a white undershirt... they were intertwined, forming an extremely ambiguous scene.

On the bed, Shen Yan lay flat, fast asleep, his chest rising and falling rhythmically, emitting a slight snoring sound.

Chen Shanni lay on her side next to Shen Yan, her head resting on his arm like a cute little kitten; a smile hung on the corners of her mouth, as if she had dreamed of something wonderful.

Suddenly, Chen Shanni's eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eyes slowly opened. Her gaze was somewhat dazed, her brain not yet fully awake from her dreams.

When she lifted her head and looked at the face so close at hand, memories of last night came flooding in like a tidal wave.

She... had really done that with Shen Yan.

Chen Shanni's cheeks instantly flushed, like a ripe Apple; she wanted to touch that handsome face, but was worried about waking Shen Yan.

In her current state, how could she have the face to face Shen Yan?

Thus, she broke herself into several pieces, inch by inch slowly moving toward the edge of the bed, wanting to pick up the clothes on the floor.

However, what one fears is what happens.

A low voice suddenly came from beside her ear.

"How is your body?"

Chen Shanni's body stiffened, and she hurriedly tucked her head into the quilt, no longer having the face to see anyone; Shen Yan couldn't help but smile and asked again: "How does your body feel now?"

"Quite... quite good," Chen Shanni responded weakly.

"That's good. I'm going to take a shower first. What do you want to eat? I'll go downstairs and buy it for you."

"You decide."

Hearing this, Shen Yan didn't bother with this shy little girl anymore and got up, walking straight into the bathroom.

"Click!"

Hearing the sound of the door closing, Chen Shanni then cautiously poked her little head out from the quilt and took a deep breath, trying hard to calm her turbulent state of mind.

Strangely, Chen Shanni felt that Shen Yan's voice today was especially gentle, enough to melt one to the bone.

Could it be that after their intimate contact, he had feelings for her?

Chen Shanni's heart sank; she didn't have much time left, and she absolutely could not let Shen Yan fall for her.

Absolutely not!

Otherwise, her sin would be too great.

Huh! Wait!

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but Chen Shanni felt her whole body was full of strength.

She raised her right hand and moved it; everything was normal.

Then her left hand... still couldn't muster any strength.

Fine! Her illness seemed to have worsened again, even her perception was having problems.

Ten minutes later, Shen Yan was dressed neatly, greeted Chen Shanni who was huddled there, and went downstairs to buy breakfast.

When he returned again, Chen Shanni had already tidied herself up, looking radiant, with no signs of illness at all.

Breakfast was rice noodles, roasted rice cakes, and rice cakes—all local specialties.

The two sat at the table eating breakfast, and Shen Yan asked if the trip would continue today.

After last night's intimate contact, Chen Shanni didn't dare to look Shen Yan in the eyes at all, her pretty face flushed red, but her voice carried not a hint of emotion: "Continue, I still want to have a good time."

That stiff tone, along with her indifferent expression, left Shen Yan feeling a bit confused.

How had this girl changed into a different person after just one night?

Sure enough, a woman's face is like the weather in June; it changes the moment you say it will, truly impossible to fathom.

"Um... I didn't offend you, did I?" Shen Yan couldn't help but ask.

Chen Shanni felt a pang of pain in her heart; she didn't want to treat Shen Yan with this attitude either, but she was worried that Shen Yan would fall for her, so she could only harden her heart and reply with two simple words.

"No!"

At this moment, Shen Yan even wondered if he hadn't performed well last night, making the little girl uncomfortable somewhere, and now she was sulking.

But she had clearly been calling out quite happily last night.

Or was it that she regretted it?

Sigh! I really don't understand!

(Many book friends have already guessed who the noble person is, so I won't say much more.)
