Chapter 306 - Going Somewhere (1/2)

The next day, as the alarm clock kept ringing, the two people on the bed remained enclosed in their own little bubble as they cuddled with each other.

''You obviously can't wake up this early, then why do you set such alarms?” Jun Zixuan mumbled in a hoarse voice as he turned towards her. One of his legs remained on her knees, locking her legs in place while his hand was on her waist. His other hand was placed below her neck while he nestled her in his arms.

Yu Mei opened her eyes slowly with a lot of struggle and she found him staring at her, ''I had to wake up early, can't I?'' She stroked his chin.

''You can. But why wake me up with you?'' Jun Zixuan buried her face in the crook of her neck, ''It's barely 6 am,'' He pulled back and glanced at her with eyes full of complaints.

''You are my better half,'' She laughed as he made a weird face at her, ''We should share happiness, sadness, and each other's troubles....'' Her face scrunched slightly as she paused, ''That's too cringe.''

He chuckled, the sound of his deep throaty laughter tickled her heart.

''...Let's just say. Since I am waking up early, you also have to,'' She stroked his chin.

''Is it compulsory?”

''Of course, it is,'' She tried to sit up but the man pulled her into his arms as he spooned her.

Jun Zixuan pulled her up such that their faces were inches apart, ''Let's stay like this then,'' He played with her hair, peppering soft kisses on her face.

She closed her eyes, relishing in his touch as she leaned closer to him, placing her hand on his back.

As his kisses turned a bit deeper, trailing towards her earlobe in a teasing manner, her body jolted slightly and she quickly sat up on the bed, ''We can't... right now. We have to go somewhere.''

''Where?” Jun Zixuan pushed himself up before sneaking a kiss from her lips.

She placed a palm on her mouth but he caught her off guard as he bit the supple skin near her breast through her flimsy robe.

''You...'' She quickly covered her body, a blush creeping up her cheeks.

''Which part of you have I not seen for you to be still so shy?' He hooked his hands around her neck.

She blushed harder but not before stealing a kiss from his lips, ''We should be even now,'' As he raised an eyebrow, she smiled, ''Let's go. Take a shower and get dressed up. We will be going somewhere.''

''Take a shower together?” His eyes visibly brightened.

She was speechless, ''You...look like a big bad wolf smacking his lips while awaiting his meal,'' She backed away a little from him, tucking the blanket till her neck, ''Unfortunately, we can't be late. We will shower separately.''

If she showered together with him, then her day will end in the bathroom and her to-do list for the day will go straight down the drain.

Very reluctantly, Jun Zixuan dropped his hands hovering near her body before he went to shower.

Yu Mei sighed as she patted her face which was feeling warm by now. This man is like a rare antique piece at times.

She could not help but laugh at her thoughts.
