Chapter 126: The Homeless Capybara

By the time Nazha arrived, Bai Liang’s shoot was actually almost finished.

So, she didn’t get to "sneak a peek" for long before she was caught red-handed by Bai Liang, who was preparing to wrap up.

"You’re here~ Wait just a moment, I’ll be done once I change my clothes."

Oh~ changing clothes, huh!

Nazha nodded obediently, then followed right behind Bai Liang into the dressing room.

"I’m changing clothes, you know," Bai Liang said, looking at her with some surprise.

Nazha shrugged as if she didn’t care. "Go ahead, are you shy? As a male artist, you need to get used to these things."

Alright, alright, Teacher Nazha’s little lecture—long time no see.

"It’s not that I’m shy; I used to be a model, I’ve even taken my pants off in the hallway before."

"There you go then."

After saying that, Nazha even found a chair and sat down, making it clear that today she was going to watch a handsome guy change, and she was determined to take advantage of this perk.

It was just a pity that her slightly reddened cheeks seemed to betray her.

Clearly, she wasn’t as calm as she appeared on the surface.

Since the young lady had expressed her intent to watch, Bai Liang naturally wouldn’t leave her unsatisfied; he had always been easygoing.

He had provided such "benefits" on set before, and he couldn’t play favorites this time either.

Besides, what was the point of working out?

Staying fit was only one aspect; another very important purpose was to show off his hard-earned muscles in front of the ladies.

He took off his shirt, revealing a tank top underneath.

But before classmate Nazha could be disappointed, Bai Liang stripped down to nothing in a flash.

Of course, he kept his boxers on.

If he had taken those off, Nazha probably wouldn’t have been able to walk out of this dressing room today.

By the time he slowly put his clothes back on and looked at Nazha again, he realized the look in the young lady’s eyes had changed.

"Is it good?"

"It’s, it’s alright~"

"You’re blushing so hard steam is coming off your head."

"Ah?!"

Nazha hurriedly turned to look in the mirror, only to realize, of course, that she’d been tricked.

Bai Liang: It’s been a while since I told a little lie~

Things like blushing until steam rises usually only happen in 2D; seeing such a spectacle in 3D isn’t easy.

"Does Teacher Nazha have any more desensitization courses to teach me?" the now fully-dressed Bai Liang teased.

Hehe, Nazha liked that title—Teacher~

Wasn’t the current scene just a super-realistic game of house? A favorite among young girls.

"Ahem, of course I do. I have plenty more to teach you. As an artist who just debuted, there are many things you need to pay attention to!"

"Then I’ll learn slowly, as long as you have the patience to teach."

"You got it!"

Yanzi and the assistant, who were keeping watch outside, couldn’t take it anymore; the room was not soundproof at all!

They had heard everything loud and clear.

Assistant: "How did they suddenly become like this?"

Yanzi: "I don’t know. Last time they were together, it wasn’t like this."

Assistant: "I’ve never seen Sister Nazha play roleplay like this either. Is it some kind of kink?"

Yanzi: "You’re only twenty, you might not understand."

Assistant: "Does Sister Yanzi understand?"

Yanzi: "I don’t either, but now I’m worried they might just..."

After whispering their discussion, both of them had a look of horror in their eyes.

Just then, Old Zhou walked over, and just as he was about to say something, he was glared at fiercely by Yanzi.

She even mouthed the words:

Get lost!

Old Zhou: ???

Although he didn’t know what was going on, well... getting lost it is.

"What are you guys doing?"

Bai Liang opened the door and poked his head out, seeing the three of them acting suspiciously.

"Ah, nothing, Brother Zhou just farted in public," Yanzi blurted out nonsense.

The assistant chimed in: "Yeah, that’s right!"

Old Zhou was originally full of grief and indignation, but when he saw Nazha behind Bai Liang, he finally understood what was going on.

So he nodded. Fine, fine, I’ll take the blame for everything.

I’m the one who burned down the Old Summer Palace, okay?

Fortunately, there was still a sumptuous dinner waiting for him, treated by Nazha, which made up for the emotional trauma.

While eating, Old Zhou gradually caught on. He looked at Nazha, who was staring at Bai Liang with a silly grin even while eating, and recalled the bits and pieces of Bai Liang and Reba’s interactions on the set of *Love O2O*.

He gasped inwardly!

Damn, Brother Liang! You’re a bit intense!

Meanwhile, Yanzi and the assistant were still curious about what had happened inside the dressing room.

During the time Old Zhou came over to "bother" them, there hadn’t been a sound from inside.

About three to five minutes, quiet as a mouse.

That duration was enough to make one’s imagination run wild...

The answer would be revealed tonight!

Nazha was staying at home tonight—not the newly renovated house, of course, as the furniture hadn’t arrived yet and it wasn’t livable.

And Bai Liang and Nazha had already agreed to go pick out furniture tomorrow.

"Sister Yanzi, Sister Nazha didn’t let me stay at her place tonight."

When such an important piece of information was given, everything seemed obvious.

The two young girls were inexplicably excited, as if the couple they were shipping was about to become real.

Then, the sixth "guest" of the night arrived.

"Hello everyone, I am Guliganati."

"Sister~ Come over and sit! Why are you so late? You’re late!"

Hearing this, Guliganati looked helpless. "My flight was delayed, what could I do~"

"Complain! Complain hard!" Nazha said, waving her little fist with great spirit.

The next second, she got a tap on the head. "I’m a flight attendant, you want me to complain about myself?"

Sister?

Alright, alright, today’s plot was truly too stimulating. Meeting the family already?

Yanzi and the other "irrelevant bystanders" silently ate their melons, thinking, *This plot is better than a TV show. Can Brother Xiaobai pass this test?*

Guliganati was still wearing her deep red flight attendant uniform.

With neat short hair, exquisite makeup, a high nose bridge, and a sharp chin, she was also a typical Xinjiang beauty.

She was just a bit older, five years older than Nazha, but she also appeared more womanly.

After sitting next to Nazha, her eyes locked straight onto Bai Liang.

She wasn’t interested in him; those eyes were full of scrutiny, looking him up and down as if she wanted to see right through him.

As a flight attendant, Guliganati had seen all kinds of people from all walks of life and considered herself a good judge of character.

At the very least, catching a scumbag shouldn’t be a problem!

It was just a pity that sitting in front of her was a capybara. Bai Liang had a very powerful talent: he was exceptionally good at getting along with a girl’s family.

From three years old to eighty, he could handle them all.

Coaxing a sister was actually much like coaxing a mother-in-law; an elder sister is like a mother, after all. At most, you just change the way you speak; essentially, there’s no difference.

Bai Liang used a few Xinjiang phrases he’d learned from Reba, which earned him a lot of points right from the start!

Guliganati was quite surprised. "Your accent is very standard!"

"He’s amazing! He learns everything super fast. He even got into..." Nazha immediately started bragging.

But a question flashed through her mind: *Didn’t we agree I’d teach you? How did you learn it in advance?*

But she didn’t think too much about it; after all, teachers taught in school: previewing is very important.

After the meal, Guliganati’s impression of Bai Liang was already very good.

She even started to wonder, when did her sister’s taste get so good?!

Please... you... bookmark 6... 9... book... bar...!

She had always thought her sister wasn’t very smart and felt she would be easily fooled by a scumbag.

"Let’s take a group photo, can I post it on Weibo?"

Here it comes, the final test.

Just like an ordinary person announcing a relationship on social media, a photo with Nazha’s sister present, including Bai Liang, was, in a sense, similar to an official announcement.

Whether or not to bring family to a gathering of friends is a very obvious signal.

And to such a request, Bai Liang naturally gave a flat... refusal.

The reason was that he was currently in a "shipping" relationship with Meng Ziyi.

As an actor, you love the job you’re in; not backstabbing is a basic principle.

The Reba incident from before had already caused some impact; Guo Jingyu had even called specifically to ask what was going on.

If Nazha popped up now, poor Sister Meng would definitely be trampled into the dust.

Not to mention the two of them teaming up to "bully" her, she couldn’t beat either of them in a one-on-one.

Nazha: No problem! I even taught him that~

Guliganati looked at her sister speechlessly; sure enough, she was still that idiot.

"I’m not going back tonight, I’ll stay with you, no problem, right?"

"Ah?" Nazha clearly showed some reluctance on her face.

Calling her sister over wasn’t for this purpose.

"Ah what? I’m your sister! It’s decided."

Nazha clearly couldn’t resist, looking pitifully at Bai Liang, hoping he could think of a good way out.

Bai Liang: ...

What kind of way could he think of? Force his way in?

After dinner, everyone went home.

Under her sister’s fixed gaze, Nazha could only get up and follow her, dragging her feet.

In the ten-meter walk, she turned her head five or six times.

Biting her lip, she looked so aggrieved.

However, after being escorted back to the rented apartment by her sister, Nazha realized there was another hurdle waiting for her.

"A guy’s slippers."

"A single girl living alone, of course, has to put out some guy’s things, pretending there’s a man in the house."

Her sister nodded. "Reasonable, but how do you explain the guy’s pajamas hanging on the balcony?"

Nazha bit the bullet: "Same effect, just hanging them for others to see. I bought them specifically."

"Not bad, you’re quite safety-conscious now!" her sister nodded in affirmation.

The next second, she walked into the bathroom. "Then what about this toothbrush, cup, and towel?"

"That’s my own!"

Nazha grabbed Bai Liang’s face towel and covered her face with it... Mmm~ she seemed to smell his scent.

Fortunately, Bai Liang was the type who was very hygienic; his things were all quite clean, and the towel was washed often, so there was no strange odor.

Sister: I believe your nonsense! It’s clear you’re already living together.

Nazha: That’s really not true!

She was so wronged; not only did she not get to eat any meat, but she was also accused of having oil on her lips.

Although Bai Liang did indeed stay there, the nature of their work meant it didn’t feel like living together at all; at most, they were roommates.

Originally, tonight might have been a wonderful night.

It was just a pity it was ruined by her sister.

"Don’t look at me with that expression. I’m only staying one day; even if you invite me later, I won’t come!"

"Don’t say that, I was planning to buy another house for you and Mom to live in." At this point, Nazha started acting spoiled and used the "money power" method.

As a result, her sister curled her lips. "I don’t need it. Don’t I have to get married? As for Mom, she can live with you; she can take care of you."

"Ah?! That won’t do, I want to buy her a house."

Tsk tsk~ young girls, huh.

Her sister had successfully gotten the full picture.

She took a box of "blockers" out of her suitcase and threw them at Nazha. "Don’t get pregnant, at least not before marriage."

While Nazha was shy and blushing, she fidgeted and said, "These won’t work."

"Why won’t they work?"

"He doesn’t like using them."

The scale of private conversations between girls is already quite large, and since it was her own sister, Nazha had no filter at all.

Since she was already misunderstood, she might as well go all out.

But talking about such topics often has aftereffects; most of the time, it turns into longing.

"Where are you?" Nazha messaged Bai Liang while her sister was taking a shower.

She mainly wanted to care about where the homeless capybara was shivering in the cold winter night~

Just thinking about it made her feel pitiful; she wanted to hug it!

The result came in less than two seconds.

Bai Liang: "I’m downstairs at your place."

*Whoosh*, Nazha immediately bounced off the bed. "Sister, I’m going out to throw away some trash."

"Ah?"

She didn’t even put on socks, didn’t change out of her thin pajamas, and rushed out of the house in the freezing cold, took the elevator downstairs—only then did Nazha realize it was still winter!

But since she was already out, she gritted her teeth and pushed through.

After reaching the first floor, she bit the bullet and ran outside, only to find no sign of Bai Liang.

At this moment, the original joy instantly turned into immense grievance.

Staring blankly at the outside, the pitch-black sky accompanied by the cold air made her shiver, while also giving her a feeling of being abandoned by the world.

Just then, a voice came from behind her.

"I saw the elevator stop on the first floor and knew you idiot hadn’t finished reading the message. The target here is too big, so I went to the underground garage."

Not a single word Bai Liang said was heard by Nazha.

As she dove into his arms, her already cold lips pressed fiercely against his.

It was cold, but also passionate as fire.

However, the National Meteorological Center predicted that starting tomorrow, a new, stronger cold front was coming, which would be the strongest cold front of the first half of the year.
