The traveling frog is living a carefree life in the Marvel universe.

The distance is just too close.

Even in the dead of night, one could smell the rich fragrance emanating from Andy.

"You can come up here to sleep, but you're not allowed to move around."

Andy could smell the male hormones emanating from Bai Ye, which made her, who had never been in a relationship before, feel flustered.

"Pfft—!"

Bai Ye suddenly laughed.

"why are you laughing?"

Andy asked, puzzled.

"Ah, I'm not laughing at you, I just thought of a joke."

Bai Ye explained.

"A joke?" Andy asked, puzzled. "What joke?"

"You've been abroad for too long, so you've become out of touch with the world," Bai Ye said helplessly. "That's probably a well-known joke, let me tell you one."

"—Once upon a time, there was a scholar and a young lady who fell in love. One day, they went on a trip together, but were caught in a heavy rain. They took shelter in an empty house and stayed overnight. There was only one bed in the house. Although they were mutually attracted, they did not take any liberties. The young lady felt sorry for the young man, so she shyly invited him to share the bed with her. However, she placed a pillow between them and wrote a note that read, 'Those who cross the line are beasts.' The scholar, being a gentleman, actually endured the whole night without taking any liberties."

The next morning, the young lady woke up and disappeared without a trace, leaving behind a note.

The inscription read: "You are not even as good as a beast."

Andy: "..."

"So, do you want to be a beast, or something even worse than a beast?"

Andy blurted it out.

But as soon as she finished speaking, she immediately regretted it, because her words seemed to be implying something about Bai Ye.

"Why would you think that?" Bai Ye looked at him with a strange expression and said, "No one wants to be a beast, and no one wants to be worse than a beast, right? I was just telling a joke. Don't worry, I won't do anything to you. I... I swear to the lamp."

Andy did not reply.

Because at that moment, she was huddled under the covers, her face flushed, and she was so ashamed and indignant that she felt like she was going to die.

I realize I'm really not good at handling these kinds of things.

If I had Qu Xiaoxiao's talent for handling relationships, I wouldn't be so embarrassed right now.

"Alright, go to sleep. We have a lot of things to do tomorrow!"

Bai Ye said something.

I closed my eyes, my breathing became even, and I entered standby mode.

Andy, with her eyes tightly closed, was still thinking about Bai Ye's joke.

If Bai Ye... will she resist or not?

When Bai Ye woke up the next day, did he act like a beast, or was he even worse than a beast?

My mind is gradually becoming hazy.

Andy was also extremely surprised and happy today, and was exhausted both physically and mentally. After thinking about random things for a while, he gradually fell asleep.

The nursing home was quiet and still late at night.

The next day.

As the sunlight slanted and gently shone into the room, Andy was suddenly awakened from his sleep.

I was stunned for a few seconds.

She recalled what had happened yesterday.

Andy was about to get up.

suddenly.

She sensed something was wrong.

She didn't know when, but Bai Ye, who used to sleep in separate blankets from her, had squeezed into a tighter spot next to her.

Perhaps, she was nestled in Bai Ye's arms right now.

"Has this guy turned out to be a beast after all?"

The thought suddenly popped into Andy's mind.

However, she didn't feel any pain or anything like that.

She had never eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run and knew a few things about them.

"So this guy actually did something worse than an animal..."

"shit!"

"What nonsense am I thinking about!"

Andy snapped out of his daze and was speechless at his own overthinking.

next moment.

Andy wanted to...

"..."

She remained silent for a while.

He placed the white night into her collar, then gently withdrew his hand from inside.

Then Bai Ye wrapped his arms around her waist.

She quickly put on her clothes, stood by the window, and glared at Bai Ye with resentment, wanting to bite him hard.

You bastard!

If you call him a beast, he didn't actually do anything too outrageous; but if you call him worse than a beast, he certainly crossed the line.

This seems to be just as he said: he doesn't want to be a beast, nor does he want to be worse than a beast!

Was he doing it on purpose?

He paused for a moment.

Andy didn't wake Bai Ye, but instead chose to leave the room alone for the time being, gently closing the door behind him.

She needs to go outside to calm down.

The moment Andy gently closed the door, Bai Ye opened one eye inside the room.

"hey-hey……"

Bai Ye touched his nose with his right hand and chuckled softly:

"As expected of Teacher Bai, she has a great figure, and... that mature woman's charm is something that no one else can imitate."

The blankets were filled with Teacher Bai's fragrance, making Bai Ye almost reluctant to get out of bed.

However, his willpower was still very strong. He yawned, turned over, and sat up.

"I should get up too. There's still a lot to do today!"

After tidying up the room, Bai Ye got dressed and left the room.

Andy was nowhere to be seen in the nursing home. Instead, there were many elderly men and women who got up very early, chatting and laughing in groups of three or five.

"Isn't it here anymore?"

Bai Ye scratched his head.

Andy is indeed no longer in a nursing home.

She had left the room earlier to avoid the awkwardness of making eye contact with Bai Ye, but later, she followed her instincts, left the nursing home, and came to the outside of Daishan to see this hometown that was both familiar and strange to her.

Over the years, times have changed and buildings have changed dramatically, but Andy can still vaguely find many traces of the past.

How did you end up here?

Bai Ye's words suddenly rang out beside Andy, almost startling her. Turning around, she saw that Bai Ye had somehow appeared beside her.

Andy: "I'm just free, I want to wander around here, you don't need to come with me."

She subconsciously looked away from Bai Ye.

"I'm just a free guy anyway. If you want to wander around, I'll go with you!"

Bai Ye laughed indifferently.

He didn't give Andy a chance to refuse, and pulled her hand to walk forward.

Andy watched Bai Ye's retreating figure helplessly.

This guy always manages to display a childlike rascality at just the right moment, which makes her both amused and annoyed.

The two walked hand in hand through the streets and alleys of Daishan.

As Andy walked through the alley and across the bridge, the sense of familiarity deepened. Gradually, she led Bai Ye to an abandoned courtyard wall.

She looked at the desolate courtyard in front of her, her eyes filled with deep thought.

A group of elderly people who were doing their morning exercise passed by nearby.

Andy broke free from Bai Ye's hand, ran forward, pointed to the courtyard wall beside them, and asked:

"Excuse me, sir, was this place a welfare home before?"

The old man glanced at it and nodded: "Yes!"

The kind-looking older woman asked, "Young lady, why are you asking this?"

"Oh, it's nothing, thank you."

"You're welcome, you're welcome."

Andy walked ahead and arrived at the gate of the courtyard. The broken iron gate opened with a gentle push.

The yard is now overgrown with all sorts of weeds.

Most of its former appearance has been covered by grass.
