Chapter 777: Do You Have a Misunderstanding About Romance?~

~4 min read 686 words

Night.

Inside the small cottage of the Hai Nan courtyard.

Moonlight streamed through the window, spilling into the bedroom.

Outside the window, insects chirped and birds sang.

A few days ago, Qin Feng had wanted to take the little orange cat out at night to catch cicada nymphs.

Then roast and deep-fry them upon returning.

But Reba had stopped him.

Rumor has it they taste like chicken, crunchy, and their protein content is ten times that of beef!

Reba felt those lines sounded a bit familiar.

Even though she was a bit of a foodie.

When it came to strange, weird ingredients.

she still felt somewhat at a loss.

Chirp-chirp-chirp—

The cicada songs outside the window went on without end.

Just like providing accompaniment for a summer night.

She propped her cheek on one hand, leaning against the window.

Reba mumbled, "If you catch all the cicadas, we won't hear the accompaniment at night."

The young couple had both finished their baths.

Qin Feng lay slanted on the bed, poking at his phone.

Hearing Reba's words, Qin Feng shifted his gaze.

He noticed this woman's posture was exactly the same as the little orange cat's usual way of climbing the window.

The only thing missing was a tail.

Qin Feng asked, "What? What kind of accompaniment?"

Reba turned her head back and said, "Cicada songs and frog croaks~ The Summer Night Concerto!"

Qin Feng said, "Now that you mention it, frogs seem to..."

He hadn't finished his sentence.

Reba crossed her arms in front of her to make an 'X'.

She said, "Hold it! I have no interest in strange, weird ingredients!"

Qin Feng shrugged his small hands and said, "You can catch cicadas freely, but frogs are protected animals; it's illegal." Reba: "Huh?"

Qin Feng: "Don't tell me you're still craving that lousy prison food?"

Reba's expression: (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻!

She said, "I never thought about eating prison food; it definitely wouldn't taste good."

Qin Feng put down his phone.

He casually picked up a small blanket from beside the bed.

And draped it over Reba's shoulders, who was wearing a slip nightgown.

To be fair, the air conditioning did seem a bit cold.

Qin Feng's unintentional gesture.

made Reba's shoulders and heart feel slightly warm~

She raised her head and said, "I didn't expect you to be quite considerate sometimes."

Before Qin Feng could speak.

Reba continued, "Since it's a bit cold, why not turn up the air conditioning temperature?"

Qin Feng replied, "Because I'm hot; if you're cold, you can put on long johns."

As he spoke, Qin Feng really pointed to the neatly folded long johns nearby.

If it were winter.

Reba would be very enthusiastic about spreading the benefits of long johns to others!

It was one of her strange hobbies.

But!

It's summer!

Reba squinted her eyes and forced out a smile.

She said, "You're actually quite nice."

Caring, but a bit weird!

Qin Feng asked, "You've been leaning there for ten minutes; what are you staring at so stupidly?"

As he spoke, Qin Feng also looked out the window.

He didn't notice anything wrong.

In Qin Feng's view.

given his goofy girlfriend's bizarre train of thought.

she might even mistake distant lights for a UFO.

Reba propped her cheek on one hand while her other arm hooked around Qin Feng.

She said, "The news said there's a supermoon tonight! The very big and very round kind~ Let's watch it together!" Qin Feng glanced at the sky.

To be fair, the moon was indeed very big and very round.

It felt as if it were closer to Earth.

Is it beautiful?

It's a bit beautiful.

But not enough to spend much time looking at it.

Even though admiring the moon is something scholars and refined people from ancient times to the present, across all nations, are quite fond of.

But in Qin Feng's view, it seemed to have no particularly attractive features for him.

Ten seconds later.

Qin Feng said, "I've looked my fill; you continue."

Reba puffed her cheeks and said, "Qin Feng~ You really don't understand romance at all."
