9:27A.M.
The light of the sun was peeking through the curtains into the big room. One stray light landed on Xia Meili's face and woke her up from slumber. She used her left hand to block the sunlight and turned the other way. She slowly removed her hand and opened her eyes. Xia Meili thought the whatever she experienced yesterday was all but a nightmare. That is until she saw the unfamiliar ceiling. She quickly looked around the room and noticed that this isn't her bedroom.
The memories from the previous night started to flood into her head. She remembers that Fei-Fei and herself were drugged by the group of men. Also that the Fei-Fei was safely taken away by her driver and that's when it hit her. She was taken by the men and they were going to rape her in an ally way. The next few parts were a bit fuzzy and it gave her a headache as she tried to remember them. She knows that they were touching her then they suddenly stopped. The more she tried the more her head hurts. Before she stopped herself from remembering a memory popped up. This part of the memory was a person who had bloody hands and silver eyes. She also remembers the group of men on the ground covered blood and also the sirens of police cars and ambulances. After that, she doesn't remember anything else.
While Xia Meili was recollecting her memory she felt something was off. She felt a little cold and something was on her stomach. She lifts the blanket slowly and is surprised at what she saw. SHE WAS NAKED AND THERE WAS A HAND!? Who's hand is that? She followed the hand and is met with a man sleeping soundly next to her. Her face immediately turns red as this is the closest she's been with a man. Something then catches her eyes as she looks at this mysterious man. The bandages on his face leading down to his toes. The only visible parts were his eyes and hair.
"Is he hurt?" She felt sorry for him because she thought he got hurt while rescuing her. The next thing she knew was that her hand was touching the man's deep black hair. It felt so warm, soft, silky, and it smelled nice. She runs her hand through his hair forgetting that she's naked.
Feeling that there was something touching his hair Xuan Long wakes up to find the woman looking at him. Xia Meili stops what she's doing and stares at Xuan Long more precisely his silver eyes. It takes a couple of minutes before she realizes that she's still naked and touching his hair. Her face turns tomato red as she screams. She takes off into the bathroom and locks it. Xuan Long is left dumbfounded at what just happened. He had no idea who this woman was.
=============================
- Xuan Long 's mind -
"Oh it's rare for you to come to see me." D exactly knew why Xuan Long was here.
"You want to know who that woman was, right? I won't tell you." D was trying to tease him, but he didn't expect Xuan Long to just leave.
"Fine! I'll tell you so come back." D knows that Xuan Long can't take a joke. Xuan Long comes back and waits for D to give him permission to look at his memories.
" *sigh* You have permission to look at my memories but in return, I get one night." D wanted to outside again even if it's for one night.
==============================
While Xuan Long was looking through D's memories of last night. Xia Meili was in the bathroom freaking out about what to do. She calmed down and thought she might as well brush her teeth and take a shower. When she was done she opened the door slightly and peeked her head out. Seeing that the man wasn't there she came out. On the bed, she noticed that there were her underwear and a white shirt. She quickly put them on and search for her phone. After a while of searching, she couldn't find her phone. So her next step was to leave the bedroom. Upon leaving the bedroom Xia Meili smelled food being made her mouth immediately watering up. She hadn't eaten since yesterday morning and was incredibly hungry. Without a second thought, Xia Meili walked to the kitchen. There she saw the man preparing food.
Xuan Long felt a pair of eyes looking at him. He looked over his shoulder to find the woman eyeing the food. Xia Meili, upon meeting his eyes hid behind the wall and peeked her head out. Xuan Long thought she looked like a kitten asking for food. He knew the woman must be hungry so he made sure there was extra. He then processed to turn off the gas and plate the food. He placed the food on the table and waved his hand to the woman.
Xia Meili was hesitant to go over but her stomach said that wise. She slowly walked over to the other side and sat down. She didn't once take her eyes off him just in case he did something. Xuan Long pushed the plate to her and began to eat his food. Xia Meili stared at her food before she couldn't take it. She downed the food so fast that she began to choke. Xuan Ling passed a glass of water to her. They sat and ate their food until both were done. Xuan Long did the dishes before going back to his room to take a shower. Leaving Xia Meili in the living room all alone. Xia Meili was bored while she waited for the man so she looked around the place. This penthouse has four rooms, a theater, a built-in gym, and a huge balcony looking over the city. Xuan Long came out of his room wearing sweatpants and a hoodie.
At that moment, there was a knock on the door. Xuan Long went to open the door and there stood an employee of StarLight. The employee had a bag in his hands. "Here you are, sir. The clothes you have ordered." Xuan Long nodded his head while taking the bag and closing the door. He walked over to where Xia Meili was and handed her the clothes. Xia Meili was surprised to find clothes in the bag and they fit her perfectly.
"Um...can we talk?" Xia Meili wanted to talk to the man to thank him. Xuan Long went to the living room and sat down while gesturing her to sit too. It took a while before Xia Meili talked because she didn't know what to say. "Thank you for saving me last night. If you weren't there I would have...well they would've had their way with me. So thank you so much." Xia Meili was really thankful.
She waited for the man to say something but instead, he took out his tablet. He began writing something on it. After a few seconds, he put the tablet on the table while it was facing her. On the tablet, it said, [Don't worry about it. I was just doing the right thing.]
"May I ask what happened to the men?" Xia Meili wanted to know if they were alive or not. Though, they're going to die soon anyway.
Xuan Long took the tablet back and placed it back on the table. It said, [At the moment, they're in the hospital and won't be waking up any time soon.]
"Mmm I see. Oh yeah, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Xia Meili, nice to meet you." Xia Meili was embarrassed that she didn't start the conversation off with her name.
Xuan Long wrote on the tablet and handed it to her it said, [My name is Xuan Long, it's a pleasure to meet you, Xia Meili.] He took the tablet back and wrote on it again before giving it back to her. [You don't mind if I drop you off at your home? Or you can call someone to pick you up.]
"Thank you for the offer but I'll call my driver to pick me up." Xia Meili wanted to go talk to her father about what happened yesterday. Xuan Long nodded his head and gave Xia Meili her phone, purse, and her old clothes back. After 30 minutes Xia Meili left bidding Xuan Long goodbye and thanking him again saying they'll meet in the future if possible.
