For a long while, steady, shallow breaths could be heard from beside him. At last, respecting her, Leng Chenxuan inhaled her faint, tranquil scent, unable to sleep.
He got out of bed and walked onto the balcony, silently smoking in the sea breeze.
The next morning, Leng Chenxuan was awakened by the woman in his arms shifting. Opening his sleepy eyes, he was somewhat amused and exasperated.
Yin Qianxue, who had kept her distance from him last night, was now clinging to him like a koala. Her slim, jade legs, not an inch covered by the T-shirt, were wrapped around his waist. Her soft and limp body nestled in his embrace like a kitten, rubbing against his chest. The wide neckline of the T-shirt revealed her flawless, white shoulders, giving him an unobstructed view of the springtime scenery hidden within.
For the first time, he realized she liked to rest her chin on his neck and breathe out the scent of orchids, sleeping innocently and unguarded.
