"It's just that..." Guan Xi stuttered, blushing furiously. "I'm on my period..."
Xiao Jiuyan stared at her for a few seconds before his large hand slowly loosened his grip on her waist.
Guan Xi heaved a sigh of relief.
'Thank God!'
She hurriedly scrambled away from him. Before she could rejoice at her freedom though, he said, "Gu Wenxi, sleep in my room tonight."
From his tone, it was clearly an order. There was no room for negotiation.
'Uhm... what?'
She had no choice but to compromise.
She thought she would not be able to fall asleep but once her head hit the pillow, her eyes closed and she immediately drifted off to a sound sleep.
THE NEXT DAY, 6:30 AM.
Xiao Jiuyan stirred, his biological clock waking him up like always.
He lifted the blanket with one hand and was about to get up from the bed when he suddenly touched something soft.
"It's still early. I'm going to sleep a little longer..."
A girl's sleepy voice sounded.
Xiao Jiuyan frowned.
His dark eyes were cold as he looked to his side.
The first thing he saw was Gu Wenxi holding a pillow in her arms.
Her snow-white arms were hugging the pillow tightly to her torso while one of her legs was sprawled out on top of his thigh. He couldn't feel it, however, since he doesn't even feel his thighs.
It was an extremely indecent sleeping position.
He wasn't expecting anyone to be in his room, let alone his bed.
Xiao Jiuyan's face instantly darkened.
"Gu Wenxi!"
His voice was filled with anger.
Guan Xi was having a dream.
In the dream, she was the female lead of a popular movie. She became the queen of the movies and everyone knew her name.
Her value exploded and she earned a lot of money.
Just as she was happily counting the zeros on her bankbook, a large hand took her bankbook away.
Guan Xi raised her head in dissatisfaction and saw Xiao Jiuyan's handsome but cold face appear in front of her...
"AH!"
She got so scared that she was startled out of her dream and her eyes opened.
The moment she opened her eyes, she saw Xiao Jiuyan looking at her.
"AH!"
Once again, Guan Xi was shocked. She jumped up and scrambled back away from him. She wasn't looking where she was going, though.
With a dull thud, she fell onto the floor, tangled in blankets.
"Ouch, ouch, ouch..."
"What are you doing in my room?"
Guan Xi was rubbing the back of her head and was getting up from the floor when she suddenly heard his cold voice.
"I... um..."
How was she going to answer this question?
It was him who had asked her to sleep in his room last night!
She pursed her lips, thinking of a way to explain what had happened last night.
"This... it was just... um..." Guan Xi stammered, her beautiful eyes widening in panic.
'WHAT THE F*CK!'
