Lili kept thinking about Yitian and Chao, and she hoped that her tactic would work out. She fell asleep when the sun was rising and was woken up by Lei probably half an hour later.
And she thought she was dead.
Lili was used to sleeping a little, but this was one another level. She had to put on her clothes twice because the first time she put her jeans on the other way around.
Then, she had to change her shirt once, because when she was eating she made a huge stain on her breasts with the porridge they made for her. Yixing was laughing at her until he spilled the soy milk onto his trousers and had to go change, too.
It was actually the first time ever that Lili heard Huobai fully laugh out loud. And god, if she wasn't obsessed with Lei's smile, she would definitely fall in love with his voice.
Well, she fully woke up an hour later, after she slept in a car on the way to the airport, which wasn't that long, but she felt as if she would fall asleep walking. So, immediately when she sat down, she drifted off into the dreamland.
"I've never seen you so out of it…." Lei shook his head, amazed by the change from yesterday's dazzling woman to today's creature. The outfit she had on couldn't even be called causal, and the mess she had on her head could be described only as a bird's nest.
"You should have seen me the morning I was traveling to Hong Kong for the first time. I spent the whole night chatting and playing with you that I almost haven't slept," she said and yawned, looking extremely adorable.
He was so in love with her because otherwise, he could comprehend the adoration he had for this little messy person. Her sweatpants looked as if she stole them from him, together with the sweatshirt. And when he noticed the brand naming, Lei knew she really stole them.
They safely got into the plane. Lili always loved the security control at the airport. She waited for who would be the victim of an embarrassment now and it ended up being Huobai. He walked through twice before they noticed his earrings. His ears were fiery red with embarrassment.
Lili felt it because it happened to her once, too. But for her, it was her boots ringing the alarm. They ended up in an economy class on the plane, which made Lili raise her brows.
"What?" Lei asked and chuckled when he saw her furrowed brows. He pressed his finger on the creases and tried to erase them.
"I thought we would go by private jet or at least business class." Lei laughed at the comment she made. She was really prejudiced against rich people. Or not prejudiced, but Lili obviously liked to make fun of him because of that.
"Wait a minute, didn't Lucy fly to Korea to help your father with some deal? Doesn't that mean your parents are rich too?" He turned to her after they sat down. And buckled up. Lili chuckled.
"Nope, there is a big difference between us two. We are okay. You are filthy rich. And, yes, she will actually meet me at the hotel. She said she has her way there. We will finally meet after a long time." Lili lay on his shoulder and closed her eyes. She was still tired and wanted to sleep.
"Why is she still in Korea, though?" Lei asked, and Lili laughed.
"Well, apparently she knows so many languages that they hired her there to be a personal translator for the idol group. I don't think she was so keen to do it. But the company has some relation with her family, so they basically forced her to do it." Lei laughed because he could imagine what it was like.
But he really admired people like Lili and Lucy. They made our world a bit more peaceful. They help people to understand each other. And the sheer amount of work they put into it… Lei thought they were underappreciated.
"What would you do? You promised Mimi to meet her too," Lei raised his brow and laid his head onto Lili's, just to have some rest too.
"I know… but honestly, I fear her a bit now. She has influence and money, and her soon-to-be husband is the same. How should I behave around her?" Lili sighed, her eyes still closed.
But Lei got what she meant by that statement. Before he was talking to Zhong Yusi as he would talk to a friend if he had some. Or to a business partner. Now, when he knew who he was. He did not know how to behave towards him.
They arrived in Korea after around four hours, and had a slight delay, even when clearing the security. But on the other side, a nice-looking woman was waiting for them. She took them to the hotel.
"Are you still tired, honey? Or do you want to meet Lucy first?" Lei asked her when they arrived at the hotel room. They were together. But it was more like a suite, and in the other rooms were Huobai with Yixing and Hongjie with Shanshan. Dylan, with the rest of the boys, had another suite just for themselves.
Lili thought about it for a while and they jumped on the bed and kicked down her shoes.
"I think I won't work properly without sleeping more. I couldn't sleep during the play. The position was too awkward…" she said and moved her neck from side to side. And turned around to lie on her back.
She didn't notice that Lei had taken off his suit, yeah he was in a suit the whole trip and it looked funny, contrasting with Lili's clothes. He crawled onto the bed to her and kissed her lips.
"I said sleep, nothing else," Lili laughed and wiggled away from under him. Lei could only sigh. But he hugged her from behind and took a nap together with her.
