The next morning Li Xue woke up all fresh and fine. Her early blissful curl of smile not holding any hints of anxiousness from the last night. "Aye, the morning has come too early today. Last night was very relaxing, only if it had lasted for longer". She mumbled to herself, turning on her sides only to find the bedside empty.
"If you want to sleep more, you can just sleep. It's just been eight in the morning and the sun is not up in the sky."
Before she even looked anywhere else to search for the man around, his voice made her aware of his presence. Her lips curled up a little finding him near but then her pupils dilated, realizing the meaning of his words.
"What? It's already eight. How did I sleep for so long?" She asked, sitting up at once. Her eyes turned to check the time on the clock, before reverting back to look at the man on the couch at a distance.
