The next morning, Xi Xiaye had woken up snuggled in a bundle of warmth. She noticed the night before that when she was falling asleep, she was engulfed with a source of warmth from the back. Out of habit, she ruffled her hair and turned over slightly to see that the man still had his eyes closed and was sleeping very peacefully.
She took a deep breath, rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, and after a while, she gently moved his hands that held her by the waist away. Then, she carefully got down from the bed.
For the past two days, he had been sleeping late and waking up early, so he was pretty worn out. Xi Xiaye took a look at the time by the bedside and realized that it was 6.30 a.m. on the dot, so she did not wake him up.
After she washed up, she walked downstairs to make breakfast.
