Now that he was sleeping, he looked like a man who had lost his edge. He was no longer overwhelming, but rather, he looked like a beautiful angel one could not help approaching.
However, the frown on his brows made him look somewhat vulnerable.
'Vulnerable?'
Ling Yiran laughed and was about to pull herself out of his arms when his hand seemed to grab her unconsciously. Then... he caught four fingers of her right hand.
Ling Yiran was startled and tried to pull her fingers out of his hand, but instead, she made him hold on tighter! It was as if he was clinging to his treasure and could not let it go.
Ling Yiran was speechless. She still could not leave after all her efforts. 'Do I have to sleep in this bed with him tonight?'
She tried several more times, but she could not withdraw her hand from his. In the end, she wondered if he was actually asleep or not.
However, his eyes never opened, nor did he do anything else.
Therefore, she could only comfort herself that they had slept together in one bed before.
After a moment's hesitation, Ling Yiran pulled the covers over themselves. Then, she put as much distance between them as she could and leaned against one corner of the bed.
She thought it would be difficult for her to fall asleep in the same bed with Yi Jinli, but she fell asleep quickly and slept through the night.
It took her a while to get used to the harsh sunlight when she opened her bleary eyes.
'What time is it? Where am I…' In a daze, Ling Yiran looked at the unfamiliar ceiling and habitually tried to raise her hand to rub her eyes.
Suddenly, her body stiffened. She felt another hand pulling the fingers of her right hand. Then, she turned her head and caught sight of Yi Jinli's face. The memories of the previous night flooded into her mind.
'I... slept here the entire night!'
