The swimming pool had ample air conditioning, with the azure water rippling gently. Ruan Yan submerged himself in the water, feeling the pressure pressing on his chest, making it somewhat stuffy. He quickly reached out to splash the water surface.
Chu Nan reached out to grab his waist for support.
“The shallow area.”
The dizzy Ruan Yan heard the black and white dolphin standing in front of him say so.
Ruan Yan forced himself to calm down. His left hand still nervously grabbed Chu Nan’s clothes, while his feet tentatively touched the bottom of the pool.
He could feel it.
Ruan Yan tried to calm his breath, releasing Chu Nan’s hand one by one. He said fiercely, “Chu Nan, I’ve told you I don’t want to go into the water. Why are you like this? I’m going to tell Grandma Chu…”
As he spoke, he breathed lightly, transparent water droplets slowly dripping from his fair, chubby face.
Chu Nan’s gaze was deep like the sea before a storm as he stared at Ruan Yan. “Complaining? I thought only Ruan Yan would easily bring up complaining. Yan Yan, you too?”
Ruan Yan hesitated for a moment, lightly lying, “I’m a girl, right? If I’m bullied and can’t fight back, can’t I complain?”
He pouted coldly, retaliating by punching Chu Nan, “You can accept Ruan Yan’s complaints but not mine. That’s unfair. In your heart, Ruan Yan is more important than me. Hmph! Go find Ruan Yan.”
Chu Nan:…
“Can’t argue with you, little weirdo,” Chu Nan murmured as he reached out to touch Ruan Yan’s face.
When Ruan Yan pretended to be Ruan Yan, due to the habitual storyline, most people would think he looked like Ruan Yan, not realizing they were the same person.
But Chu Nan had already discovered his identity and carefully compared the differences between the two.
Ran Yan’s demeanor was more delicate, while Ruan Yan tended to be cooler. Besides acting skills, this difference was probably also due to makeup techniques.
Today, Chu Nan was going to remove the makeup from Ruan Yan’s face and force him to admit it.
His hand drew closer, making Ruan Yan uneasy. Could Chu Nan be planning to kiss him again?
Ruan Yan disrupted the atmosphere with an expressionless face. “Chu Nan, don’t call me a little weirdo. Ruan Yan calls me Little Fruit, which is much cuter than your nickname.”
Chu Nan:…
Little Fruit was a bit too sickeningly sweet and coquettish.
But that was the nickname Ruan Yan gave himself. What could Chu Nan do?
Chu Nan said, “You like being called Little Fruit? Fruits are plucked, it’s disrespectful to people.”
Ruan Yan rolled his eyes inwardly. “You call me a little weirdo, how is that respecting me?”
To strike back at Chu Nan, he said deliberately, “Because I’m a girl, I like being treated like a plucked fruit~”
Chu Nan:… He was getting hot under the collar.
Likes being plucked? Well, then you’d better remember that.
Chu Nan couldn’t hold back anymore. Seeing Ran Yan’s crimson lips, he couldn’t help but think they were probably coated with lipstick.

But Ran Yan’s lips were a bit swollen, and Chu Nan didn’t dare to rub them forcefully.

Chu Nan looked into Ruan Yan’s eyes, unblinking.
Ruan Yan:…
If it was just a kiss on the eyelid, he wouldn’t have minded.
Ruan Yan said coldly, “Hurry up.”
After speaking, he slowly closed his eyes, and with a “snap,” Ruan Yan felt a pain in his eyes.
He suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes turning red. “Chu Nan, what are you doing?”
Chu Nan pinched a long eyelash, falling into silence. Such long and clear eyelashes, were they not fake?
He messed up and was about to get punished.
Chu Nan felt embarrassed. “Yan Yan… Isn’t this a fake eyelash?”
Ran Yan stared at the eyelash, obviously displeased, not answering Chu Nan’s question, pursing his lips. “Give it back.”
Knowing he had messed up, Chu Nan returned the eyelash to Ran Yan in full, feeling a bit flustered. “Yan Yan, let me explain…”
He thought it was a fake eyelash!
Holding his own eyelashes, Ruan Yan shed a tear. When Chu Nan pulled the eyelash just now, it pulled his eyelid.
Ruan Yan quietly shed tears, expressionless, starting to shift the blame. “You can pull out fake eyelashes? Chu Nan, if I knew how to wear fake eyelashes and how to dress up, I wouldn’t have foolishly fallen for you, ying!”
But I’m already the most handsome person at Qilin High School.
Chu Nan, feeling guilty, fell silent for a moment. “Yan Yan, you don’t wear makeup?”
He thought that by removing the makeup, Ruan Yan would look exactly like when he dressed as a boy.
Ruan Yan, feeling hurt, didn’t want to argue with him. “I was born beautiful. Why would I need makeup?”
Naturally beautiful… Chu Nan opened his mouth but couldn’t refute.
The boyish Ruan Yan was indeed more outstanding than the girlish Ran Yan.
Seeing Ruan Yan’s tears, Chu Nan felt uneasy. “Yan Yan, don’t cry…”
He didn’t say anything, but Ruan Yan, with just a tear in his eye, ended up shedding three or four more tears after being comforted.
Chu Nan:…
Ruan Yan said expressionlessly, “I didn’t cry, it’s because it hurts.”
He didn’t want to cry either.
Chu Nan felt even more guilty. “Yan Yan, should I pull it back for you?”
Ruan Yan said, “I’m afraid you’ll make me bald.”
And besides, it’s completely different. He was caught off guard when Chu Nan pulled his eyelash, so of course it hurt.
Chu Nan has thick skin and was prepared. Even if he pulled out all his eyelashes, Chu Nan wouldn’t feel a thing.
Ignoring Chu Nan, Ruan Yan continued to hang onto his tears without looking at him.
Chu Nan braced himself. Since things had come to this point and he had already offended Ruan Yan, he might as well force Ruan Yan to admit his identity all at once.
Then he could slowly make it up to him.
Chu Nan focused and examined Ruan Yan. Ruan Yan was wearing a thin evening dress, clinging to his body, resembling a swan in the water.
Chu Nan’s gaze lingered on Ruan Yan’s throat, which wasn’t prominent. If he was a boy, he must have used some means to disguise it.
Chu Nan boldly reached out, but just before touching, Ruan Yan said coldly, “Are you trying to mess with me again?”
If it weren’t for Chu Nan’s thick skin, he would have surely blushed.
He did consider… even if he knew Ruan Yan was likely a boy, he still thought of ways to approach him, like turning off the lights or sneaking up from behind.
If Ruan Yan was a boy, he had ways to deal with him.
If Ruan Yan was a girl, he also had ways to deal with her.
But he couldn’t escape from Yan Yan’s schemes. Chu Nan had a bad temper, but he indulged Ran Yan. If it weren’t for his belief that Ran Yan would definitely be his wife, he wouldn’t have been so charitable.
But he really wasn’t thinking crookedly now!
Chu Nan said solemnly, “Yan Yan, I didn’t…”
Ruan Yan coldly interrupted him, “If you didn’t, then why did you reach out? To strangle me?”
Chu Nan:…
Although Ruan Yan didn’t expect Chu Nan to suspect his identity, he had always been cautious. He wouldn’t let anyone touch his throat to confuse the situation. “Just now you pinched my eyes. Chu Nan, can’t you bully people without switching targets? Can’t you pick on a lamb instead of a wolf in sheep’s clothing?”
Chu Nan:…
He couldn’t hold on any longer. When Ruan Yan reasoned with him, his mind was clear, but now he was being led astray, making it really frustrating.
Chu Nan decided to get to the point. His gaze slid down and settled on Ruan Yan’s chest.
Because of the water, the curves were exposed, the waist was slim, tempting one to squeeze, but… it was almost flat.
Chu Nan said, “Yan Yan, you…”
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Nan couldn’t articulate it, so he just pointed and said, “Yan Yan, are you… eighteen years old and still undeveloped?”
Ruan Yan:…
It’s not that he didn’t want to develop, but mainly because it’s easier to walk carrying peaches than watermelons.
Ruan Yan was afraid that Chu Nan would doubt him because of his size. The tears he shed just now finally found their purpose. In a split second, he shed a tear. “Chu Nan, so what if I’m undeveloped? Just because I’m flat, you look down on me! Ying!”
Chu Nan:… Backtracking a bit, when I thought you were a girl, I could tell at first glance that you were flat. How could I wait until now to feel that way?
He struggled to explain, trying to pull off Ruan Yan’s vest. “I didn’t mean that. I meant… Yan Yan, you… You’re as flat as a boy. Are you… really not a boy?”
Ruan Yan’s face suddenly darkened, alarms ringing in his mind. If Chu Nan suspected his identity and exposed him, with water all around, and he had bullied Chu Nan when he was Ruan Yan, if Chu Nan were to hold him down in the water and beat him…
No, he couldn’t afford to be exposed!
Ruan Yan quickly reacted, his face sorrowful, eyes teary. “Chu Nan, you can insult me for being flat, but you can’t insult me for being a man. You’re going too far!”
With a determined heart, he continued, his gaze chilling. “Today, I’ll let you see whether I’m a man or a woman…”
Chu Nan:… So sudden?
Shouldn’t we get married first?
Before he could say anything, Ruan Yan took his hand and pressed it against his chest, then withdrew it in less than a second.
Chu Nan:…
Ruan Yan:…Expressionless but ashamed. He might seem calm, but his actions were daring.
In the rippling swimming pool, the blushing girl with long, curly eyelashes looked like a beautiful oil painting.
“…It’s… a bit hard.” Chu Nan was dumbfounded. He didn’t know what to say. He never expected Ruan Yan to be so bold.
Ruan Yan spoke softly, resisting the blue cat’s intrusion. “Chu Nan~ What’s wrong?”
Chu Nan took a deep breath. “Yan Yan. I can’t sleep, my mind is full of scenes of you holding my hand earlier… Yan Yan, how did you feel at that moment?”
He pretended to smile wryly. “Maybe it’s the law of attraction between opposite sexes. I’m too excited to sleep now. How about you, Yan Yan? When I touched you just now, what did you feel? I’m feeling like this, so you must have felt something too, right?”
Chu Nan was infuriated, not realizing that he had only touched a peach.
Ruan Yan:…He didn’t even touch me, how could I feel anything?
But he had to keep up appearances and maintain his lifestyle.
Ruan Yan remained calm, speaking sweetly, “Chu Nan… How could I say such things when I’m a girl~”
“Heh.” Chu Nan chuckled inexplicably. “Tell me, I want to hear it. Little pervert, you lit the fire, now you have to put it out yourself.”
Ruan Yan thought to himself, even touching a peach can ignite such a big fire in him, then next time, I’ll wholesale a truckload for you?
Ruan Yan thought sarcastically but sweetly said, “When you touched me just now, I felt hot, I wanted to struggle but didn’t want to struggle…”
Chu Nan narrowed his eyes, devilishly pressing the record button.
Yan Yan, my dear, keep pretending.
We’ll reminisce together later.
