Jing Mo stared at Xia Xin's bedroom door and couldn't help but think about what Sun Hu had said earlier in the afternoon. He wondered if he had really done something wrong.

Stretching lazily in bed, she glanced at the time and realized it was already noon. She remembered that she had promised to prepare lunch today as Jing Mo had done yesterday. However, she had overslept.
Xia Xin hurriedly sat up and prepared to get out of bed. Suddenly, the system emitted a notification sound.
