Lin Xiu raised an eyebrow when he saw this, then turned to look at the woman sitting on the bed.
She hadn’t had time to change clothes, so she was still in her bathrobe. Because Lin Xiu was standing, he looked down from above…
Hmm, he hadn’t expected this woman to be so lightly dressed.
Right now, her slender fingers were tightly gripping the edge of her robe, her knuckles turning white with the force—clearly, she really didn’t want him to leave…
Seeing this, Lin Xiu feigned confusion and said, “Sister Yun, what do you mean by this? Are you trying to make me stay?”
At this moment, Liu Yun’s pretty face was flushed with embarrassment. She was actually startled by her own actions, yet even so, she still hadn’t let go.
She turned her head aside, gave a soft snort, and said, “No, I’m not! I just, I just…”
Lin Xiu couldn’t help but chuckle, then gently rubbed her delicate hand and said, “Yes, yes, Sister Yun doesn’t want me to stay—it’s just me insisting on staying, and I’m even going to share the bed with you. Is that all right now?”
Liu Yun glared at him upon hearing this, and muttered under her breath, “Shameless, who wants to share a bed with you…”
Though she said this, Liu Yun finally released her grip on the youth’s clothes.
Lin Xiu shook his head with a helpless smile. This woman was clearly scared out of her wits, yet she still had to act so stubborn. Such a tsundere…
Thinking of this, he withdrew his gaze and said quietly, as if by accident, “Don’t worry, Sister Yun. I’m here.”
Liu Yun shivered when she heard his sudden words, an indescribable, tingling warmth spreading through her heart…
Because of all this fuss, it was almost midnight by now.
Liu Yun didn’t feel sleepy at the moment, so she chose to curl up in the covers, wrapping herself into a little ball, and absentmindedly played with her phone.
But her mind was still on the day’s events. Was it really as simple as the youth had said?
Thinking of this, Liu Yun sneaked a glance at the youth not far away, who was also playing on his phone, her curiosity like a cat’s paw scratching at her heart…
At this time, Lin Xiu was sending a report to his superiors about what had happened today, including, of course, the woman’s miraculous ability.
Wish fulfillment? That might not be exactly right, but it was pretty close.
Lin Xiu glanced back at Liu Yun with a complicated expression. He hadn’t expected that, as soon as he looked back, their eyes would meet.
Liu Yun quickly turned away in panic, pretending nothing had happened as she looked all around. It was unbearably cute.
Lin Xiu stared for several seconds before looking away, his mood sinking slightly. He understood that this seemingly tempting ability could very well be a disaster for this woman…
Half an hour later, Liu Yun started to feel drowsy. And it was all because of that guy not far away—hadn’t he been so talkative before? Why was he suddenly silent now?
After a moment’s hesitation, Liu Yun finally spoke first. “Hey, are you sleepy?”
Lin Xiu didn’t look up when he heard her, only replied in a lazy tone, “Sister Yun, my name’s not ‘hey.’ What should you be calling me again?”
Liu Yun froze, rolled her eyes inwardly, but still answered with a bit of awkward stiffness in her voice, “Master, are you sleepy?”
Lin Xiu looked up at her, as if he’d suddenly realized something, then got up and went over to Liu Yun’s side, laying right down beside her.
Liu Yun hurriedly scooted away, flustered. “What, what are you doing?”
Lin Xiu rolled onto his back and stared straight at her, chuckling softly, “Going to sleep, of course. Isn’t that what you meant?”
Hearing the youth’s blunt words, Liu Yun’s cheeks flushed bright red with embarrassment and indignation. “I meant you should go sleep on the floor! You’re not allowed to sleep up here.”
Lin Xiu immediately shut his eyes and started snoring in an exaggerated act.
Liu Yun was speechless. When it came to shamelessness, this guy was truly unmatched, past or present.
“Hey, stop playing dead and get up~”
Liu Yun poked him with her delicate fingers, but the youth just rolled over, almost knocking her down. Fortunately, she dodged in time.
Since his little trick didn’t work, Lin Xiu kept pretending to be asleep.
Liu Yun was at her wit’s end, so she tried kicking him with her bare feet, hoping to push him off the bed.
But it was hardly effective. In the end, she only managed to make herself short of breath.
Looking at the shameless guy sprawled there, she even considered just sleeping on the floor herself.
But then again, why should she have to sleep on the floor?
Taking a deep breath, Liu Yun said, “Fine, fine, you can sleep on the bed. Satisfied?”
Lin Xiu’s eyes popped open and he sat up eagerly. “Really?”
Liu Yun glared at him, then picked up a pillow and placed it down the middle of the bed, putting on a look she thought was very imposing. “This is the boundary. If you dare cross it, I’ll bite you to death!”
Lin Xiu knew this was already her limit. If he pushed her any further, she’d definitely blow up like an angry kitten.
He cleared his throat and nodded earnestly. “Sister Yun, I swear on my honor, I absolutely won’t cross the line!”
Liu Yun, though he promised, still eyed him with suspicion. “Do you even have any honor? How would I know?”
Lin Xiu feigned a wounded look. “Sister Yun, that’s just too much. My honor is totally spotless, you know…”
Liu Yun just snorted and, after a yawn, flopped onto the bed. To be safe, she wrapped herself up like a ball, guarding against a certain wolf.
This meant that Lin Xiu was left without a blanket tonight. By the time he realized it, the woman beside him was already fast asleep.
Lin Xiu was a little surprised, then crept quietly to the other side of the bed. Seeing Liu Yun’s delicate and enchanting sleeping face, he couldn’t help but pinch her dainty nose.
“Tsk, so you really were sleepy yourself, huh? Afraid of this wolf, yet you still sleep so soundly. What a silly woman…”
Liu Yun, sound asleep, wrinkled her nose at his mischief, then rolled over and kept sleeping.
Lin Xiu chuckled softly and didn’t tease her any further, lying down on his half of the bed.
As he looked at her sleeping face, a thousand thoughts spun through his mind. No doubt, many people were already eyeing this woman, and even those at the top had unclear intentions.
So what should he do with her?
Lin Xiu had no answer for now, so he stopped thinking about it and slowly drifted off to sleep as well.
The next morning, sunlight filtered in through the window, carrying Sanya’s distinctive sea breeze into the room.
On the white bed, the two figures were now cuddled up together, the pillow marking their boundary long gone…
It’s the end of the month, please vote, or I’ll collapse and bite everyone to death.
