Chen Ningxue carefully wiped Ling Feng's wound with a serious expression, constantly asking with concern until Ling Feng repeatedly assured her that there was no serious harm, and only then did she let go of her worries.

After applying the ointment, Ling Feng's pajamas had almost all been stripped off, mainly because most of his injuries were on his shoulders and back.

Ling Feng's heart also fluttered, as a stunningly beautiful woman was gently applying medicine to him. This kind of treatment was something he had rarely enjoyed before!

Once the medicine had been applied, Ling Feng was ready to put on his pajamas, but Chen Ningxue stopped him, "Don't hurry to get dressed. After the ointment dries, I'll wrap you up with a bandage!"

Looking at Chen Ningxue's resolute gaze, Ling Feng could only nod in agreement.

The atmosphere became a bit awkward and ambiguous for a moment. With his upper body bare, Ling Feng's mind kept replaying the issue with the condom. Meanwhile, Chen Ningxue's face turned slightly red, and her gaze uncontrollably glanced over Ling Feng's body, his physique akin to a bodybuilder's, which greatly shocked her.

"Um..."

"You..."

Simultaneously, both of them began to speak.

"You go first!"

"You go first!"

The two of them once again echoed each other.

Chen Ningxue laughed out, "Alright, alright, if you have any questions, you go first!"

Ling Feng touched his nose and said, "It's nothing much. I'm just very curious about this place. I can tell that this must be your most private space, right?"

Chen Ningxue nodded, "That's right, this indeed is my most private territory. Even my family has never entered here!"

Ling Feng was somewhat surprised, "Am I the only guest here then? Should I feel very honored?"

"Of course!" Chen Ningxue smiled and said, "Usually when I feel very agitated, I come here! After all, I'm a public figure and sometimes have to bear some pressure. If I let loose recklessly, it would cause a lot of trouble if the paparazzi found out, so... I choose to come here to release my emotions and calm my soul!"

Chen Ningxue sat cross-legged on the bed, her dazzling long legs somewhat blinding to Ling Feng.

"Do you usually have a lot of pressure?" Ling Feng cleared his throat and looked away.

Chen Ningxue stretched and said, "Of course. You don't really think I was born thick-skinned, do you? At first, when facing slanders from haters, I was also angry and felt lost and sad! But now it's much better. The most important thing in life is to let oneself live happily and find one's own joy. As for those irrelevant people's comments, what do they have to do with me?"

Listenting to that, Ling Feng nodded inwardly. It was rare these days to meet someone enlightened enough to ignore the looks of others. Chen Ningxue's achievements today couldn't be separated from her ever-strengthening inner self.

"I have a lot of my treasures here, do you want to see?" Chen Ningxue asked, blinking her eyes with a hint of excitement.

"Treasures? What kind of treasures?" Ling Feng was curious.

"Hehe, you'll know soon!" Chen Ningxue said with a mysterious smile, then scurried out the door.

After a while, Chen Ningxue came back carrying a cardboard box and placed it on the bed, "Today, I'll let you in on it!"

As soon as the box was opened, Ling Feng's eyes widened in disbelief. He looked at Chen Ningxue and said, "Where did you get something so ancient?"

Inside the box was an old gaming console. Beside it was a pile of densely packed game cartridges.

Chen Ningxue hugged her knees and said, "Of course it's the one I bought when I was a kid. I really loved playing these games back then, but all the little girls around me thought that playing video games wasn't for girls, and that kids who played video games were not good children. So I hid it here, and only here could I freely show my true self and play whenever I wanted to."

Ling Feng was quite the mischievous child back in his day, always dreaming of having his own game console. However, the family's financial situation simply didn't allow for it, and his mother didn't like the idea of him holing up at home playing games all day, as getting addicted could be extremely harmful to kids.

Therefore, Ling Feng could only play a few rounds at his friends' homes. Back then, his greatest wish was to own a game console and play all the games!

Reflecting on this, the look in Ling Feng's eyes softened as he gazed at the familiar and ancient game console before him, almost as if he had returned to the days of secretly playing games.

"I never would have guessed you were a fan of the red and white console too!" Ling Feng exclaimed. "Back then, whoever had one among our friends was pretty much a hero in our eyes!"

"Then you must have had one!" Chen Ningxue said with a smile.

Ling Feng stroked the red and white console and shook his head, "My mom would never let me immerse myself in games. You have no idea how much I envied everyone back then!"

Chen Ningxue's eyes lit up, "Then… why don't we play a round now? Sounds good?"

Ling Feng said in surprise, "This red and white console still works? That's impossible, right?"

Chen Ningxue said proudly, "I was playing on it just last month! My favorite is 'Dragons and Brave'. What about you?"

"I was a faithful fan of 'Dinosaur Beatdown' back in the day!" Ling Feng said. "Do you have it here?"

Chen Ningxue rifled through the cartridges and then triumphantly held up her hand, "Look, what's this?"

"'Dinosaur Beatdown Ultimate Collector's Edition'!" Ling Feng's eyes bulged. "You have even this?"

"Dare to take me on?" Chen Ningxue raised her eyebrows.

Ling Feng felt a tingle of excitement, as he had never played this edition before!

"Stop dawdling, let's get on with it!" With that, Chen Ningxue had already connected the red and white console to the TV and turned it on.

The familiar music from their memories filled the air, and under Chen Ningxue's enticing influence, Ling Feng stopped worrying and picked up the controller to start the game.

"I'll pick this woman!" Chen Ningxue said, "Don't pick that fat guy, choose the one in the white shirt!"

Ling Feng said sullenly, "But the fat guy is strong!"

"But he's ugly!" Chen Ningxue insisted, "Out of all of them, only the guy in the white shirt is somewhat handsome!"

Ling Feng looked at the game screen speechlessly. How could he tell if the guy in the white shirt was handsome?

However, Ling Feng didn't feel like arguing with Chen Ningxue anymore. Anyway, it made no difference who he chose. After selecting their characters, the two of them started the game.

The familiar music started up, and the characters controlled by Ling Feng and Chen Ningxue appeared on the television, moving towards the boss as instructed by the game.

"You go in front, protect me!" Chen Ningxue commanded with total confidence, "Leave the handgun for me, the steak for me, and also the lobster and the big roast meat!"

"What am I supposed to use?" Ling Feng was at a loss for words.

"A stick and a long sword, and you can eat steamed buns!" Chen Ningxue said laughing pridefully.
