Songcheng, five in the morning.

The earth was still engulfed in the darkness before dawn.

Bai Xiao opened her eyes, yawned, and wanted to continue sleeping. So sleepy, she hadn't gotten over the jet lag yet.

She moved her body, and warmth, along with even breathing sounds, came from beside her.

"Who? Who's in my bed?"

She was startled, quickly turning over to sit up.

Under the dim light of night, the man beside her slowly opened his eyes, his icy gaze sending a chill through her body, starkly contrasting with the warmth from him.

"Ye, Ye Huang?" Bai Xiao stuttered out his name. Her pupils constricted, her beautiful eyes shining like dazzling stars in the night sky, caught off guard by that cold gaze.

Bai Xiao's hand, overstimulated with fright, unconsciously clutched her heart as she stared blankly at the person before her.

After a while, she found her voice again, "What's going on? How come you're in my bed?"

Ye Huang lay there, his gaze cold as he looked at Bai Xiao. The blanket had slipped down, exposing almost his entire chest. Even in the dim light of night, it was... quite conspicuous!

Ye Huang reined in his thoughts and spoke coldly, "This is my bed."

"What?" Bai Xiao nearly bit her tongue, "Impossible!"

Click!

Ye Huang raised his hand to turn on the bedside lamp.

The warm yellow light illuminated the entire room.

Bai Xiao looked left, right, up, down... and was dumbfounded.

Damn, this really wasn't her room! This was Ye Huang's room; she had been here before!

Now, the spacious bedroom was filled with festivity, everything in sight was red. Red paper-cuts, red 'happiness' characters, red quilts, red bed sheets...

And she was actually in Ye Huang's bed?

Had she barged into someone else's wedding chamber? Taken over someone else's wedding bed?

Bai Xiao felt like fainting. But how did she barge in? She couldn't remember at all.

Yesterday was her first day back in the country; she arrived at the airport just past midnight, and it was the Bai Family's driver who picked her up and took her home. At this time, she should be catching up on sleep at her own house, so how did she end up in Ye Huang's wedding chamber?

The Bai Family and the Ye Family were not on the way to each other, one in the south and the other in the north.

"Do you have anything to say?"

Ye Huang's icy voice startled Bai Xiao, the tone seeming like an interrogation of a criminal.

Bai Xiao turned around. She met Ye Huang's icy eyes, coldness wafting over her, and quickly averted her gaze again, unable to help but think resentfully that he truly was a natural air conditioner, bringing coolness wherever he went.

The surrounding silence reminded Bai Xiao it was the middle of the night. Opening her eyes to see Ye Huang at midnight? No way! It must be an illusion!

Thinking this, Bai Xiao looked up again, her gaze meeting the man in front of her who seemed to be waiting for an answer and she froze once more.

He continued to watch her coldly, his sturdy chest rising and falling slightly.

This was definitely not an illusion!

Bai Xiao's scalp tingled as if she were lost in a fog. She had no clue how she ended up in the Ye Huang Family's house, in his bed.

She didn't have the courage to question him, so after much thought, she sheepishly said, "I'm sorry, I don't know how I ended up in your room."

"..."

Ye Huang looked at her without a word. His expression seemed to be waiting for her to make up more of the story.

Make up...

How could she make this up?

Bai Xiao wracked her brain but couldn't come up with anything to say.

Her distressed and forlorn appearance was fully captured by those cold eyes, not noticing the sharp glint deep within them.

She also wanted to know how she ended up in Ye Huang's wedding chamber! She actually wanted to ask if he had kidnapped her. But on second thought, that seemed impossible. They hadn't seen each other for many years, and ever since they were little, they never got along, always fighting or arguing, like enemies.

Ye Huang had no reason to kidnap her on his wedding day!

Bai Xiao quickly dismissed the idea.

The joyous atmosphere of the wedding chamber became somewhat stifling.

Ye Huang wasn't talkative; he had always been reticent since he was young. In this awkward situation, Bai Xiao didn't expect him to explain, so she tentatively asked, "Yesterday... did you get married?"
