Chapter 239 - Waking Up in the Morning

The morning breeze carried the smell of clear lotus on the lake as it blew into the bedroom on the second floor, bringing with it a hint of clear coolness.

The sunlight shone through the French windows and shone on her feet. Sensing the heat, Xia Wanyuan slowly opened her eyes and saw a familiar face.

……..

It was a familiar scene. Xia Wanyuan lowered her head. As expected, she was hugging Jun Shiling’s waist tightly again. The two of them were extremely close. She could even clearly feel Jun Shiling’s normal reaction in the morning.

Xia Wanyuan’s face flushed red. She slowly retracted her hand and stepped back.

This action woke Jun Shiling up.

Jun Shiling seemed to have had a bad sleep. His eyes were still bloodshot.

“You’re awake?” Jun Shiling, who had just woken up, had a low and magnetic voice. It was like an electric current that exploded in Xia Wanyuan’s ears, making her heart tingle.

“You… I…” Xia Wanyuan stammered for once. Suddenly, she thought of something. She lowered her head and saw that she was wearing pajamas.?Wasn’t I wearing a gown last night?!

“Nanny Li helped you change your clothes,” Jun Shiling said when he sensed Xia Wanyuan’s panic.

“Then what about us?”

“You forgot?” A hint of a smile flashed across Jun Shiling’s eyes, but his expression was extremely serious. “You were drunk yesterday. I carried you back, but you held onto me and didn’t let go. I wanted to go and sleep with Jun Yin. When I let go, you looked so wronged that it was as if you were going to cry.”

??

There was obvious doubt in Xia Wanyuan’s eyes.?Did I really do that?

However, Jun Shiling’s expression was extremely serious. Furthermore, Jun Shiling had always been a man of his word in Xia Wanyuan’s heart. There was no need for him to lie to her.

Xia Wanyuan’s expression turned even more rosy. “I’m sorry, I was drunk and didn’t know.”

“It’s okay. Can I get up now?” Xia Wanyuan lowered her head, so she could not see. At that moment, Jun Shiling’s eyes were filled with a smile.

“Get up. Why are you asking me?”

“I was afraid you would still need a pillow.” As Jun Shiling thought, Xia Wanyuan’s face flushed red.

“Leave quickly.” The cold pine fragrance from Jun Shiling surrounded her, making Xia Wanyuan feel uneasy. Furthermore, she did not need to look up to know that Jun Shiling must be smiling teasingly. Xia Wanyuan felt embarrassed.

I won’t drink anymore next time. I must change the habit of hugging something when I sleep.

“Then sleep a little more.” Jun Shiling stopped teasing Xia Wanyuan and lifted the blanket to get up.

Jun Shiling had left, but the aura around him was still there. Taking a gentle breath, the air was filled with the fragrance of pine. Xia Wanyuan had failed to fall asleep.

After washing up, Jun Shiling was eating breakfast downstairs when Xia Wanyuan went downstairs.

“Why don’t you sleep a little more? Do you have work today?” Jun Shiling had thought that Xia Wanyuan needed to sleep again.

“I can’t sleep.” Jun Shiling’s question reminded Xia Wanyuan of the cold pine scent that had lingered on the bed just now. Then, she couldn’t help but think of the heat she had felt in Jun Shiling’s arms in the morning.

At this moment, Xia Wanyuan’s face flushed again.

Jun Shiling handed Xia Wanyuan a pair of chopsticks and looked up to see the blush on her face. Seeing how awkward she was, Jun Shiling’s lips curled up.
