His remark made the actor even more wary.

He gave Gong Jie a cautious stare. “Would you?” he asked instead. Could this Gong Jie be so beastly as to want to impose himself on him even though knowing he was a man?!

Gong Jie was in no hurry to answer his question. Instead, he said enigmatically, “That… depends on whether I’m a normal man.”

“…” Why did he hear a faint threat in the man’s tone? No, it wasn’t even faint. It was an outright threat!

“Are you threatening me?” Hua Jin narrowed his eyes and took a wary half step back.

“Threaten you in what ways? Do you think I need to threaten you now that you’re so weak?”

“…” Hua Jin’s eyes fluttered with guilt.

Annoyed that the actor’s gaze wasn’t on him, Gong Jie pinched his cheek, forcing him to look straight at him. “How do you think a man would react to sharing a bed with a woman?”

“…”

Beep-beep-beep…

Alarm bells went off in the actor’s head. He stared at Gong Jie like he was staring at a lion, nervous that he would pounce on him in the next second!

Gong Jie was even more intrigued now by the man’s alarm. “What, just realizing you’re in danger?”

Gong Jie studied him from head to toe. “Thin as a bean sprout. I feel like I could lift you with one finger.”

“Huh. Says who?” The actor took half a step back to avoid him. “Let’s just keep a little distance between us.”

“Why?”

“I feel a little uncomfortable standing close to you!”

“Uncomfortable in what way?”

Gong Jie narrowed his eyes and asked meaningfully, “Do you think I can’t do anything to you just because you’re avoiding me?”

“…”

Gong Jie admired his slightly uneasy expression with abandon and spoke unhurriedly. “If I really wanted to do something to you, you won’t be able to hide from me!”

As Hua Jin was shuddering at those words, he heard Yun Shishi calling out.

“Xiao Jie!”

The two men turned to face each other as she approached. “Ah,” she said when she saw them. “Am I interrupting something!?”

The actor waved his hands frantically. “No, no…”

Gong Jie put his arm around his shoulder and smiled warmly at Yun Shishi. “What’s up?”

“We’re going to the restaurant for dinner! After that, we’re going to soak in the hot spring!”

“Okay, go ahead. We’ll be right there.”

After Yun Shishi left, Hua Jin pushed the man away and brushed his shoulders in disgust. Without another word, he ran after Yun Shishi. Gong Jie smirked as he watched the actor’s rapidly disappearing back view.

There was actually nothing special about dinner, except that it was in a revolving restaurant near the mountainside, so the scenery was not bad. After dinner, Yun Shishi urged everyone to bring their bathing suits and arranged to meet them back at the hot spring.

The pool was huge, and the hotel had a total of ten hot springs. The hot spring that Yun Shishi had booked had the best view and was situated at an exclusive geographical location. It was a mixed bath, a very large pool, and on the other two sides were two very small pools – a red wine pool and a pool with small fish.

Gong Jie and Mu Yazhe changed into their bathers and made their way to the hot spring first. As soon as they were inside, they saw that Liang Yin had changed as well. However, she dawdled to the side of the pool, her arms covering her chest protectively.

Mu Yazhe was stunned to observe this.
