Mama Song continued saying, âSince you are going on a trip to Nanxiang Old Town, you have to make good use of this chance. With that said, I donât think you guys should do⦠those kinds of things too prematurely! Alright? As a guy, you need to know how to protect girls. You canât just be thinking aboutâ¦â
Song Shijun was stunned. He totally didnât expect his mother to say this.
Embarrassed, even his ears were red. âMa, stop going on about this drivel!â
âGeez, Ma, stop rushing me. You just have to go with the flow with these kind of things! Right? Okay, okay, stop disturbing me while Iâm packing up. Isnât Xiaoxiao here already? You should go and entertain our guests.â
Song Shijun pushed his mother out of the room and closed the door.
Mama Song still wouldnât give up, and she said behind the door, âYou always act like this whenever I talk to you about serious stuff.â
âMa, you canât just leave the guests downstairs, right? Go and entertain them!â
Mama Song clicked her tongue at the door, and she grudgingly went downstairs.

In an inn at Nanxiang Old Town..
Bright rays shone in through the windows and lit up the wooden floor with a golden glow.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mo Xiaomeng was lying on the bed as she slowly woke up. When she opened her eyes, she saw the clear sunshine outside as though it could cleanse away all the dust and it felt very peaceful.
She stretched herself and felt a little hungry. Thinking of the delicacies at the old town, she couldnât help but lick her lips.
Just as she was about to get up, she suddenly felt a force grab her slender waist and pull her back.
âAh!â Mo Xiaomeng was startled.
Then, she felt warmth from behind her ears, and a deep magnetic voice said beside her ear. âItâs me. Donât be scared.â
Mo Xiaomeng stopped when she heard the voice. Looking back and seeing that it was Ye Sijue, she heaved a breath of relief.
She grumbled, âWhy are you scaring me?â
She suddenly found something odd and exclaimed, âWhy are you in bed? Arenât youâ¦â
Wasnât he sleeping on the sofa?
Why had he gotten onto the bed?
âThe sofa is very hard⦠I canât sleep.â Ye Sijue sounded naughty. His arms tightened around her, pressing her back against his chest.
âItâs still early. Letâs sleep for a while more.â
Mo Xiaomeng could feel his warm body against her back and the strong thumping of his heart.
Her face was flushed red, and she muttered. âEarly? Itâs not early now.â
To put it bluntly, he was trying to stay in bed.
To put it even more bluntly, he wanted to stay in bed with her.
Mo Xiaomeng was a goody two shoes. She would always keep her sleeping schedule. She wouldnât stay in bed later than usual in the morning like Mu Xiaoxiao. When she woke up, she typically wouldnât want to go back to sleep again.
Moreover⦠she was quite hungry now.
She tried to get rid of his hand and said softly, âLet go. Let me get up.â
Ye Sijueâs arm didnât even budge. It was as if a pair of iron pincers were holding her waist.
âWhat are you doing?â His voice sounded husky like he had just woken up, but there was also some sexiness to it.
She didnât know if he was doing it purposely as he talked to her right beside her ear.
His subwoofer-like voice was making her heart race.
Honestly, to be able to listen to such a pleasant voice upon waking up in the morning was really⦠particularly pleasurable.
She pressed her lips together and said, âIâm quite hungry.â
âHungry?â Hearing that, Ye Sijue slightly relaxed his grip on her.
