Everyone played until late at night. Chi Le was so sleepy that he wanted to crawl into the tent to sleep. Jian Cheng saw that everyone was gradually losing interest in playing, so he clapped his hands, asked everyone to gather with their luggage, and then led everyone to the hotel nearby. The same went for people from other classes, who were led by their teaching assistants to the hotel one by one.
"It's cold now, so we can't really let everyone camp outdoors." Jian Cheng walked in front holding a lantern, explaining as he walked, "Everyone's safety is the main premise. The staff has already booked a hotel nearby. Everyone go there to rest now and go back tomorrow."
Chi Le knew that he didn't have to sleep in a tent, and he felt relieved but also a little disappointed. He had thought that he could have a heart-to-heart talk with his future wife under the moonlight tonight, but if they slept together, it would be easy for some embarrassing situations to happen...
Chi Le glanced at Sheng Zhuo secretly, patted his cheek, trying to stop thinking about it, and continued walking forward with Jian Cheng.
Fang Younian was carrying a heavy bag and said unhappily, "Since you're not staying in a tent, why do you want us to set up one?"
Jian Cheng replied in a businesslike manner, "It is to improve everyone's hands-on ability, and everyone also needs a place to rest during the day."
Fang Younian snatched the hanging lantern from his hand unhappily, and walked in front first, lighting the way for everyone along the way. Jian Cheng curved his lips and smiled, then followed him forward.
The place we stayed was a hot spring hotel and everyone lived on the first floor.
Chi Le pushed the door open with the doorplate and walked into the room. Sheng Zhuo turned on the light behind him. The room was very large, and the terrace outside was a place for hot spring bathing. The lights were on, and one could see the dripping water.
Chi Le changed into slippers, walked over excitedly, squatted beside the hot spring pool and touched it. The water was of moderate temperature, with steam rising from the surface and the water was very clear.
Sheng Zhuo walked up to him and looked at the surrounding environment. It was surrounded by high walls on three sides, and one could not see inside from the outside, so the privacy was quite good.
Chi Le looked up at Sheng Zhuo, with a smile on his face, "Do you want to take a hot spring bath?"
It was cold at night, and they were already frozen cold on the way back. It would be very comfortable to soak in the hot springs before going to bed.
Sheng Zhuo raised his eyebrows slightly and looked down at him, "Are you sure you want to take a hot spring bath with me?"
"..." Chi Le's body stiffened. He originally just wanted Sheng Zhuo to take a bath and he didn't want to take a bath himself. But if he said this, it would seem like he was hiding something else in his mind.
The heat from the hot spring water reached his chest through his fingertips, bringing with it a scalding breath.
Chi Le shrank his fingers as if he was burned, and said vaguely: "I'm just asking casually. If you want to take a bath together, it's okay, but..."
"Okay." Sheng Zhuo raised the corners of his lips slightly and agreed in a relaxed tone.
Chi Le looked up in shock, "???" Take a bath together...
Twenty minutes later, Chi Le took out a bathrobe from the cupboard and put it on. He slowly opened the glass door and walked towards the only hot spring pool in the yard, taking off his shoes.
Sheng Zhuo leaned against the edge of the pool with his upper body naked, his eyes closed, and his arms resting on the edge of the pool.
Chi Le took a quick glance and quickly looked away, stretched out his feet to test the water temperature, and then slowly sat in the water.
Sheng Zhuo opened his eyes and looked at him, his lips curled up slightly, "You want to take a hot spring bath in a yukata?"
