Chapter 329: Stay the Night

Xiao Moting said hurriedly, "Bai, I am fine..."

"Eat. This is an order from the Goddess." Bai Wei interrupted, waving her hand.

A pile of snacks appeared on the table again, all things Xiao Moting usually liked to eat.

Cola, braised chicken legs, biscuits...

Xiao Moting was about to speak, but his stomach let out a rumbling sound, betraying him.

Bai Wei covered her mouth, let out a giggle, and pointed at the food on the table, signaling him to eat.

A few more shades of embarrassment appeared on Xiao Moting's handsome face.

He took off his outer robe, handed it to Bai Wei, sat honestly at the table, and began to wolf down the food.

Xiao Moting was indeed hungry and ate very quickly.

On the folding table in the tent sat a rechargeable emergency light.

Xiao Moting wore only a white undergarment; the cotton fabric was faintly transparent under the light, revealing his strong, sturdy upper body.

He wore his hair in a high ponytail, tied up with a Gold Crown, making his sword-like brows and star-bright eyes appear even more imposing and heroic.

Bai Wei sat beside him sewing the clothes, stealing glances at him from time to time, her heart beating a little fast.

It must be said, she really hadn't seen a man more handsome than Xiao Moting in the modern world.

There were men with good-looking faces in the modern world.

But the sharp, cold aura Xiao Moting possessed was something rarely found in modern men.

Bai Wei finished sewing the clothes and handed them to Xiao Moting.

"I've finished sewing it. Put it on and try it."

Xiao Moting reached out and took the clothes.

But unexpectedly, his fingers brushed against Bai Wei's.

He couldn't help himself and reflexively gripped her fingertips in his hand.

The atmosphere all around suddenly went quiet.

Bai Wei was also stunned; she never expected Xiao Moting to take the initiative to hold her hand. She looked up at Xiao Moting, her cheeks flushing with a scorching heat.

"Bai," Xiao Moting also looked down, gazing at Bai Wei. He didn't let go of her hand, but instead held her entire hand in his palm. "You have done so much for me. Thank you."

His rough palm lightly brushed against Bai Wei's delicate, smooth skin.

Bai Wei's heart beat even faster, and she felt a bit nervous for a moment.

"I—I'm not just helping you alone. I'm helping the entire Northern Frontier Army."

Xiao Moting smiled slightly. "Then, on behalf of everyone in the Northern Frontier, I thank you."

"Xiao Moting, is there any need for us to say the word 'thank you' between us?" Bai Wei asked back.

The distance between the two was very close, their bodies almost touching. Bai Wei could even feel Xiao Moting's hot breath falling on her cheek, making it itch.

The man's scent was very crisp and clean, completely devoid of any unpleasant smell of tobacco or alcohol, only a scent unique to him, mixed with the faint fragrance of laundry detergent.

Bai Wei's heart was in a complete mess.

Seeing that Xiao Moting wouldn't let go of her hand, she struggled a bit, but couldn't break free, so she reached out her other hand and lightly poked Xiao Moting's chest.

"Xiao Moting, you—how long are you going to hold my hand?"

Through the thin cotton undergarment, Bai Wei's fingertips felt the sturdy, strong body beneath the fabric; his chest rose and fell with his breathing.

Xiao Moting was poked by Bai Wei, and his handsome cheeks flushed hot, followed by a wave of goosebumps.

He called out in a low voice, "Bai."

Bai Wei looked up at him.

Unexpectedly, the man reached out his arm, wrapped it around her waist, and pulled her into his embrace.

The crisp, clean scent surged down, overwhelming her.

Before Bai Wei could come to her senses, she was kissed.

Her mind went blank, her pupils constricted, and her heartbeat became chaotic.

When did Xiao Moting become so bold?

She didn't know how much time had passed, but Bai Wei's head was spinning.

She was kissed by Xiao Moting until she was dizzy, barely able to stand, and almost slid to the ground.

Xiao Moting held Bai Wei, pulled her to his chest, and hugged her gently.

"Bai, you are the most precious treasure heaven has bestowed upon me."

His low voice carried a magnetic quality.

His hot breath sprayed onto Bai Wei's neck.

Bai Wei felt even more flushed and heart-fluttering.

The two were tightly embraced in the tent, while the Northern Frontier Army outside remained completely unaware.

A group of people was crowded in front of the old television, watching the movie with great interest.

The previous "Let the Bullets Fly" had finished playing, and now, someone had found "Yang Family Generals" from the movies Bai Wei had downloaded onto the USB drive to play.

The vast and magnificent battlefield scenes made the Northern Frontier soldiers let out bursts of exclamations.

"So amazing! They are so skilled at fighting."

"These people are similar to us. Are they really people from Bai's side?"

"Bai said it herself, this is called a movie. The people inside aren't ancients, but actors from her world."

Everyone was engrossed in the wonderful movie, and no one noticed Bai Wei and Xiao Moting hiding in the tent, whispering sweet nothings.

Bai Wei gently pushed Xiao Moting away, her cheeks still burning.

"Where are you staying tonight?"

Xiao Moting glanced outside the tent, "I am the same as everyone else, I will stay outside."

"Why don't you stay here tonight," Bai Wei said.

Xiao Moting's pupils shrank instantly.

Immediately following, a look of disbelief flashed across his face.

Xiao Moting could not help but glance at the only large bed in the tent, his cheeks suddenly turning as red as a burning fire.

"Bai, do you really intend to..."

"Yes," Bai Wei nodded vigorously, "You already kissed me just now, why are you still acting all shy like a young maiden?"

Xiao Moting's handsome face became even more bashful.

He had acted on impulse just now and couldn't help but hold Bai Wei; under normal circumstances, he, who was always self-disciplined, would never make such a mistake.

Xiao Moting glanced at the large bed, trying his best to suppress the surging emotions in his heart.

He was a man, and when facing the girl he liked, of course he wanted to stay.

Not only did he want to stay, he also wanted to...

But in the end, reason overcame impulse.

Xiao Moting took a deep breath to calm himself down.

He shook his head, "Bai, if I stay tonight, I would be offending you and damaging your reputation. But rest assured, after we return from Yannan this time, I will immediately propose to you, and then we can live together properly."

"What?" Bai Wei widened her eyes, "You thought, you thought that when I asked you to stay tonight, I meant that..."

Xiao Moting was stunned, and in his nervousness, he began to stutter, "That, that what?"

Seeing his handsome face flushed red and his nervous expression, Bai Wei could not help but let out a "pfft" of laughter.

"Xiao Moting, so you thought that when I asked you to stay tonight, I meant that... that?"

As she teased him, Xiao Moting's handsome face turned even redder.

"Bai, what exactly is your intention?"

Bai Wei laughed, "I meant that you aren't sleeping comfortably outside and there are mosquitoes at night, so you might as well sleep in my room tonight. Did you think I wanted to sleep in the same bed as you? You wish."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand.

A single bed immediately appeared in the tent.

Bai Wei pointed at the single bed, "There, you sleep here tonight, and I will sleep on the bed. It will also be convenient for you to protect me at night."

The cold wind whistled, and the snow fell even more heavily.
