Actually, it's mainly because Xia Xiyao is here acting as a third wheel. Otherwise, Xu Lin wouldn't be this bored. If nothing else, he could have been snuggling and kissing Rong Xiyi. But with a third person around, those things can't happen.

Besides, he didn't want to flirt with Xia Xiyao.

Even though Xia Xiyao is also quite pretty, Xu Lin really has no interest in her.

At least for now, he doesn't feel anything.

So, Xu Lin could only play games earnestly.

The three of them played "Fight the Landlord" from just past four in the morning until about six o'clock.

By this time, the sky finally began to lighten a little.

After all, it's almost November, and in some places in the north, people are already wearing padded coats, and it doesn't get light so quickly.

"Xu Lin, get ready, it's almost dawn!"

Rong Xiyi pointed to the east, "In a little while, the sun will rise from that direction! I've never really watched a sunrise properly before!"

She turned back to Xu Lin and asked, "Xu Lin, have you seen a sunrise before?"

"I watched it with my mom before."

Ms. Ren had taken him several times to specifically watch the sunrise.

"What about you, Yaoyao?"

"Never seen it."

Xia Xiyao shook her head.

Rong Xiyi said, "I haven't seen it either!"

"In a little while, we'll be able to see the sunrise!"

On the hilltop, many people were already waiting for the upcoming sunrise.

Xu Lin was on a high ground, sitting side by side. Rong Xiyi was sitting in the middle, with Xu Lin and Xia Xiyao sitting on either side of her.

As time passed, the eastern horizon finally showed a hint of dawn.

Soon, the light of the sun began to appear.

At that time, the sky was already bright, but it was just the kind of brightness without having yet seen the sun in the morning.

"Xu Lin, Yaoyao, it's getting light!"

"I see it."

"Uh-huh."

Then, after another ten minutes or so, the edge of the sun finally appeared on the horizon over there.

"Xu Lin, Yaoyao, the sun is coming out!"

"We'll take a picture in a moment!"

Rong Xiyi was very excited.

In her view, having someone she liked on one side and her good friend on the other, there was nothing more joyful than this. The eighteen-year-old Rong Xiyi had a simple and innocent mindset without many other thoughts.

After a while, the sunlight streamed over from the far edge of the horizon, and many people exclaimed that the sun was finally out. After all, many people had waited all night just to see the sunrise.

People began to take photos one after another, and Rong Xiyi did the same. She first took selfies facing the sun, taking group photos of the three of them with her phone.

Xu Lin at most smiled for the photos, but posing in some way was completely beyond him.

Rong Xiyi and Xia Xiyao were different; the two would make peace signs, but Rong Xiyi was more mischievous and lively.

They took more than a dozen front-facing photos, then they took group photos with their backs to the sun, in nearly the same pose, and Rong Xiyi took more than ten photos of those as well.

By this time, the sun had also risen into the sky, and it was completely bright.

"Let's go!"

Everyone stayed on the mountain for another ten minutes or so before carrying their trash back down the mountain.

The descent was much quicker, less than half an hour to reach the base of the mountain. After discarding the trash, everyone had their hands free given that even the outdoor grill was disposed of, occupying space otherwise.

"Let's go!"

In the passenger seat, Rong Xiyi cheered.

Xu Lin yawned, "Let's head straight home. I want to go back to sleep."

"Me too!"

Rong Xiyi turned back to Xia Xiyao and said, "Yaoyao, come to our place!"

The Xia Xiyao in the back nodded slightly.

At nine in the morning, everyone returned to the rental house.

"Xu Lin, we're going to shower on the first floor; you can shower on the second floor!"

Xu Lin didn't mind either way.

After showering on the second floor, he initially wanted to wear just shorts but considering there was a third wheel, he decided to get dressed in a T-shirt and shorts.

Afterward, Xu Lin turned on his computer and started playing.

However, Xu Lin only played on the computer for ten minutes before shutting it down.

He drew the curtains, darkening the room, and went to bed. He hadn't slept at all the previous night.

Downstairs, the two girls were still frolicking in the bathroom, laughing and chatting about bodies for a while, then about other things, seemingly chatting about anything and everything.

So, an hour passed just like that.

Upstairs, Xu Lin had already been asleep for over half an hour.

Later, when the two girls came upstairs, Xia Xiyao peeked through the door and saw Xu Lin lying on his side facing the window. She casually asked, "Is Xu Lin asleep?"

Rong Xiyi went in to check and came back to whisper, "Xu Lin's asleep!"

Xia Xiyao said, "Forget it, Xiyan, I want to sleep too!"

"Yaoyao, you sleep over there, and I'll sleep here."

"Mhm."

Xia Xiyao yawned. The moment sleep was mentioned, she genuinely wanted to sleep.

Then she went into the room, and not long after lying on the bed, she fell asleep.

And Rong Xiyi?

She carefully turned Xu Lin over so he lay on his back.

Rong Xiyi lay down beside Xu Lin, snuggling up to him, breathing in his scent and preparing for a comfortable sleep.

She hadn't slept cuddled up with Xu Lin for several days, and the feeling of sleeping in his embrace was something she missed and was enamored with.

At this moment, Rong Xiyi didn't forget to slip her right hand into Xu Lin's shorts.

Rong Xiyi opened her eyes, thinking Xu Lin had woken up. She even flipped Xu Lin's eyelids, only to find that he hadn't woken up.

"You big pervert, even asleep you're not honest!"

Rong Xiyi internally grumbled a bit.

But if Xu Lin knew what she was thinking, he'd likely retort immediately, 'I wouldn't be like this if you didn't touch me, right?'

You should know, young guys are very sensitive and can't handle even the slightest stir.

"Forget it, consider yourself lucky!"

"Hmph!"

Rong Xiyi got up to confirm the door was locked.

"Hmph hmph!"
