Chapter 255: A Sloth
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
After submitting the evidence and ending selection, Ye Xing was a little saddened.
Although they had completed the task smoothly this time and there were fewer horror elements compared to the previous episode of the ancient village, she felt that this episode’s story was sadder.
Moreover, Miss Zheng and Miss Bai’s relationship was getting tenser. She felt like she was walking on thin ice in this variety show. She was the most powerless here and could not afford to offend anyone.
The few of them went to the hotel that the production team had booked to rest. They would head to the new program venue tomorrow.
In the car, Yan Ruo took in Bai Lin’s tired and impatient expression.
He had deliberately sat in the same van as Bai Lin so that he could be closer to her.
“Are you very sleepy? Take a nap. I’ll wake you up when we reach the hotel,.”
Yan Ruo spoke timely and immediately received a grateful look from Bai Lin.
Bai Lin’s eyes were big and clear like some kind of small animal that only lived in the forest.
After being in the entertainment industry for so long, it was really hard to see such clear eyes.
Hearing the breathing of the girl beside him gradually become extended and slow, Yan Ruo could not help but turn his head to look at her sleeping.
A few strands of hair fell to the side of Bai Lin’s face, adding a bit of gentleness to her.
As if she felt a burning gaze, or perhaps it was because of the b.u.mps on the road, she puffed her cheeks and her fingers moved unconsciously in her sleep.
Yan Ruo did not think through it when he extended his hand over and lightly touched Bai Lin’s fingers.
As expected, Bai Lin first grabbed his hand, then she soon wrapped her arms around his entire arm. Like a sloth, she was almost hanging onto Yan Ruo.
The smile on Yan Ruo’s lips became more obvious.
He had originally wanted to ask his a.s.sistant to tell the driver to take a longer route back to the hotel so that he could enjoy the feeling of being relied on and staying so close to Bai Lin.
However, as he looked at her peaceful sleeping face, he could not help but hope
that he could get to the hotel as soon as possible so that she could be on a more comfortable bed.
As the van stopped in front of the hotel, Bai Lin woke up. She subconsciously hugged what was in her hands tightly, but it felt a little weird.
Bai Lin raised her head and looked up, her eyes meeting Yan Ruo’s magnified handsome face.
“Sorry, I didn’t mean to.”
Bai Lin immediately let go of Yan Ruo’s arm and sat up straight to apologize.
“It’s fine.” Yan Ruo put on a smile that could instantly kill a group of fans. He was named the s.e.xiest man in the world not entirely because of his good figure now. “Did you sleep well?”
“Very good, very good. We’re here, right?” Bai Lin changed the topic and opened the door to get out of the car as if she was escaping.
“Xiao Lin,” Yan Ruo called out to her. Under the dim yellow light in the car, Yan Ruo looked rather ethereal. Half of his body was still in the darlmess, making him seem rather unreal.
“Good night.”
Yan Ruo’s words were like a small stone that crashed into Bai Lin’s heart, causing ripples to form.
Bai Lin could only feel her heart beating faster. She did not dare to look at Yan Ruo again, afraid that she would fall into that gentleness and be trapped in Yan Ruo’s amber eyes if she stayed for a second longer.
Bai Lin was still in a daze even when she lay on the hotel bed. She did not even take a shower before she collapsed on the small sofa. The lights in the room were not turned on, and she just lay there unmoved for a few minutes.
There was a knock on the door.
“Xiao Lin, are you asleep?
It was Zhou Guang.
Bai Lin heaved a sigh of relief. She did not know why she suddenly became nervous when she heard knocks on the door but got a little disappointed when she learned that it was her third brother.
“The hotel has supper set up. I saw that you didn’t come down to eat, so I brought you some.” Zhou Guang brought the supper into the room. “Why didn’t you turn on the lights? It’s so dark.”
Bai Lin picked up a cherry tomato with the fork and put it in her mouth. The
cool sweet and sour juice finally calmed her down.
“Xiao Lin, what do you think of Yan Ruo?” Zhou Guang suddenly asked.
Bai Lin had half a shrimp tail in her mouth and answered vaguely, “He’s called Best Actor and is respected a lot. Many fans like him.”
When Zhou Guang heard Bai Lin’s reply, he understood it.
Bai Lin only spoke of the outside world’s comments of Yan Ruo and did not mention her own opinion. Based on his understanding of Bai Lin, this meant that Bai Lin already had a place for Yan Ruo in her heart. It was just that she did not know how to deal with this kind of relationship yet..
