Chapter 139 - A Blissful Morning (2/2)

He raised his arm that was below her head and with one swift move, the hand on her waist moved as he turned her around so that she was lying atop him with their faces inches away.

Her dark eyes visibly widened as she rolled to the side and glanced at him, ''What are you doing?” She asked pulling the blanket to her neck.

She wasn't shy because she was wearing a conservative robe, but she could not be sure whether some part of her thighs or above would be visible given her ugly sleeping postures. The least she wanted was to embarrass herself any further.

”Morning,” He pressed a soft kiss on her forehead as his hand sneaked inside the blanket, settling on her waist and dragging her back closer to himself again.

Her eyes widened. Every cell in her body screamed, jiggled like the bounciest jelly cake. She took a few breathes to calm herself down and glanced at him with all seriousness.

If he did remember anything about yesterday, then she would simply run away and ignore him forever rather than reminiscing the most embarrassing moments of her life at the sight of him again and again.

It was a big mistake on her part. Maybe she had been single for way too long or she simply needed a man. But it was ridiculously impulsive on her part to kiss Jun Zixuan, the man who has been her best friend in both lives.

He was drunk but she was not.

”About yesterday....”

”Did I cause some inconvenience to you yesterday? I was a bit drunk and I don't remember much,” He interrupted her almost instantly when he noticed the change of expression in her eyes.

Trying to ignore me again? Impossible!

He did not why but one glance at her will give him the hint of the direction of her thoughts lately. He was getting to know every fiber of her like the back of his hand and he would not prefer it any other way.

”I...” He didn't remember anything! Her eyes lit up as she quickly shook her head, ”I wanted to ask... Why did you come here?”

”I initially came to help you with your studies but I could barely control my alcohol from getting on my head.”

”And why were you drunk?”

He hugged her tighter, burying his face in her neck, his lips grazing past her dark hair as his hold was almost melding their bodies in one, ”It was because of Mu Shen. he asked me to drink,” His hot breath slithering past the nape of her neck.

She stiffened, ”C-Can you let go of me first? We don't have to talk like this,” It was tough for her to get these words out but she did her best despite the rings of shocks flowing through her body.

”I want to hug you, can't I?” He whispered again.

And it was like a cat was scratching her heart. Dammit. She pressed her palms on his chest and pushed him away, ”Men and women should have a proper distance between them.”

His brown eyes stared at her intensely.
