# Chapter 259: ghs?
It was eleven o'clock at night when Chen Yao finally returned home.
He stood at the front door, so nervous that both his hands were trembling. When he turned around, he saw his mother peeking at him from the stairway.
"Do your best!" He patted his heaving chest, trying hard to suppress his nervousness. He felt like this meeting seemed even more nerve-wracking than the earlier confession. How should he face Lin Nan?
Go up and kiss her right away? Or take it step by step, start by holding hands or something? No wait, Mom, don't just watch the show there! Teach me!
He closed his eyes and took several deep breaths. He pulled out his keys, but his trembling hands failed to insert them into the keyhole several times. Finally, gripping the key with both hands, he successfully opened the door.
Inside the room was pitch black. Lin Nan had probably already gone to sleep.
Only then did his emotions calm down. He smiled at his parents outside the door and closed it.
Taking off his outer coat, Chen Yao casually turned on the light. He was about to lower his head to remove his shoes when he suddenly saw Lin Nan curled up on the sofa, hugging her legs and watching him. "Are you still awake?"
Chen Yao scratched his head awkwardly, glancing at Lin Nan's pretty face, but it flashed by. She buried her head again. "No."
Clearly Lin Nan was also very nervous.
Chen Yao changed his shoes and sprayed himself all over with disinfectant before hesitantly walking toward Lin Nan. Finally, he sat down at the other end of the sofa.
The room suddenly fell into silence. Chen Yao fidgeted anxiously with his phone, hastily starting to search online for how to get along with a girlfriend he'd just confessed to.
"Um." Lin Nan suddenly looked up and said in a soft voice, "Come closer."
Chen Yao quickly put down his phone and happily scooted over, sitting beside Lin Nan.
He was so excited, thinking Lin Nan wanted to go straight to it, but after waiting a moment, he didn't hear any follow-up words.
His gaze swept over Lin Nan curled up on the sofa, and Chen Yao suddenly noticed her pale left hand was placed beside her hip, while her other hand hugged her drawn-up calf.
This is intentional, right?
Chen Yao swallowed his saliva and tentatively placed his palm over Lin Nan's hand.
Lin Nan's body trembled slightly, but she didn't resist. Only her ears were already slightly reddening.
He had just discovered for the first time that Lin Nan's hand was actually so cold, just like ice. He looked up at Lin Nan who wasn't resisting, and gripped a bit tighter, trying to warm this hand with his own temperature.
Usually looking at Lin Nan's hand, he just thought her fingers were slender and long. But actually holding it, he realized her hand was actually quite fleshy, with a soft and smooth texture.
Just simply holding Lin Nan's hand made Chen Yao's heartbeat somewhat too fast.
How about a kiss?
As a man, after making progress with the first step, his mind couldn't wait to proceed to the next step. So he calmed his mood slightly, turned his head, and quickly moved his face closer to Lin Nan's cheek.
However, a dark shadow seemed to flash before his eyes. He suddenly pounced on empty air on the sofa. When he looked up again, he saw Lin Nan had already stood up. Without saying a word, she ran toward the bedroom on those long legs.
Does this mean tonight we'll do ghs? (TN: Wrestling. Ahem.)
Chen Yao's eyes lit up as he hurriedly followed behind Lin Nan. When Lin Nan entered the room, the sound of the lock instantly shattered his fantasy.
"Lin Nan, that's my room..." Chen Yao knocked on the door with dead-inside eyes. "You've locked me out twice today."
"Tonight you're sleeping outside."
"I'm tired working all day. You won't even let me sleep in the bed?"
Does that mean you still want to sleep together with me?
Inside the room, Lin Nan's face darkened. She mercilessly refused: "Don't think so much! Go go go! Get lost!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she was afraid Chen Yao might have some misunderstanding. She opened the door a crack, revealing only a pair of eyes looking out, and said shyly in a low, soft voice: "I, I still can't accept being kissed..."
"But you kissed me before..."
Before he could finish speaking, Lin Nan suddenly closed the door again.
She was so angry steam came from her head. This guy was bringing up exactly what shouldn't be mentioned! How dare he say that!
Chen Yao was completely confused, not knowing what he'd said wrong. It was clearly the truth, wasn't it?
He let out a long sigh, realizing that the road to conquering Lin Nan had only just barely started. And this was probably going to be a marathon.
Inside the room, Lin Nan looked down at her left hand that had been tightly held just before. The warmth from Chen Yao's palm still seemed to remain on the back of her hand.
She suddenly threw herself onto the bed, hugged the bedding, and kept rolling back and forth.
Ahhh!!! Will he think I'm a pervert! Will he think I'm very easy!
She herself didn't even know why she'd been so bold just now, practically taking the initiative to offer her hand right to Chen Yao.
But the feeling of having her hand held really was quite nice...
Cola, crouching on the computer desk, looked at the rolling Lin Nan with the eyes of someone looking at an idiot.
After getting tired from rolling, Lin Nan panted lightly with her head buried in the bedding. Only after a long while did she eliminate the blush from her face. Then, expressionless, she got up and opened the door.
Chen Yao outside was still standing there. Seeing her, he smiled apologetically: "I shouldn't have mentioned it. My fault." Although he couldn't figure out where he'd gone wrong, watching his father and mother's daily interactions, he felt that apologizing wasn't really a problem.
Otherwise, his just-acquired girlfriend might break up with him on the first day.
Lin Nan didn't answer him. She turned around and sat on the bed, lowering her head to play with her phone.
"Do you want a midnight snack?" Chen Yao asked meekly with lowered brows and obedient eyes.
Looking up at Chen Yao, Lin Nan frowned and asked dissatisfied: "What are you trying to do with that attitude, being so careful when speaking?"
She didn't like this feeling where their relationship had obviously become closer but somehow felt more distant.
Moreover, Chen Yao's appearance always made Lin Nan suspect this guy had ulterior motives, like craving her body or wanting to make some embarrassing request.
"Maybe because I'm afraid you'll get angry again?" Chen Yao sat beside Lin Nan and tentatively moved a bit closer.
Seeing Lin Nan had no reaction, he moved even closer until their shoulders were touching.
Chen Yao breathed a sigh of relief and finally resumed his normal way of speaking. "What do you want to eat?"
"I'm not eating. I'm on a diet." He leaned over to look and discovered Lin Nan was searching online about fitness and weight loss. "Didn't you say before you wanted to gain another ten pounds?"
Lin Nan froze, turned her head, her ears turning red, and explained in a voice as soft as a mosquito: "Don't you like them skinnier?"
She still remembered how this guy had been staring at those female clothing models a few days ago. "Not at all! I'd like you even if you got as fat as a pig!" Chen Yao righteously patted his chest. "I could support you even at 200 pounds!"
Lin Nan fell silent. She suddenly understood why some people called men "big pig trotters."
She helplessly climbed onto the bed and pressed the switch on the nightstand. The room was instantly left with only the backlight from the phone.
"Let's sleep. I'm tired."
Chen Yao's eyes lit up as he happily prepared to get into bed to sleep together with Lin Nan.
"You sleep on the floor."
Chen Yao's face turned ashen. "Then I'll go take a shower..."
