The next morning.
Jiangli didn’t know when she fell asleep; it seed like she only slept a little at the crack of dawn.
Sunlight seeped through the window, spilling onto her face. She frowned uncomfortably and woke up sowhat dazed.
In that instant, she felt dizzy, as if she were sleeping on cotton in a nonexistent space, devoid of any sense of reality.
This feeling was truly terrible.
Jiangli took a deep breath but didn’t feel like sleeping anymore.
She then got up and went to the bathroom.
Standing in front of the sink, Jiangli looked at herself in the mirror and realized that she looked rather unwell.
There wasn’t a hint of color on her face, like soone who had been dead for several days.
In stark contrast to the sky full of red in her dream.
Jiangli took a deep breath and gathered so Spiritual Energy, and her complexion gradually beca rosy again.
This looks a bit better.
After a simple wash-up, Jiangli changed her clothes and was about to look for Xia Xin.
The door was knocked then.
Fu Shiyan’s voice followed from outside the door.
"Lili, are you awake?"
Hearing Fu Shiyan’s voice, Jiangli couldn’t help being stunned.
A feeling of further dizziness washed over her.
But it had to be said, Fu Shiyan’s voice was truly pleasant.
Even in a state of irritation from a sleepless night, hearing this voice cald the naless fire in her chest.
Like a drought land gradually being soaked by a continuous drizzle.
Jiangli stepped forward to open the door and saw Fu Shiyan standing at the door.
Seeing her open the door, Fu Shiyan smiled, "I guessed you were awake. I bought so specialty breakfast from L City. Would you like to have so?"
He raised the bag in his hand, waving it in front of Jiangli.
The aroma of food imdiately swept into Jiangli’s nostrils.
Jiangli didn’t want to think about those jumbled things, so she accepted, "Sure."
Fu Shiyan seed to be a good hunter, knowing the importance of striking while the iron is hot, "Shall I co into your room?"
Since he was already at her door, Jiangli naturally didn’t refuse and stepped aside, "Co in."
Fu Shiyan chuckled, following Jiangli inside, one after the other entering the room.
He had bought so local delicacies from L City, including a box of iced jelly and a box of crab-flavored pastries.
When Jiangli saw the iced jelly, her eyes lit up. She picked it up, scooped a large spoonful, and took a bite, imdiately feeling the heat within her subside.
Watching her devour the food, Fu Shiyan pulled out a napkin, "Look at you eating."
Saying that, he raised his hand to wipe Jiangli’s mouth.
"Eat slowly, no one’s fighting over it with you."
Jiangli felt the cool touch of his fingertip through the napkin at the corner of her mouth, staring blankly at Fu Shiyan.
That familiar sense of déjà vu ca rushing back.
Seeing her stare blankly at him, Fu Shiyan raised an eyebrow, laughing, "Why are you looking at like that?"
Jiangli shook her head slightly, "Nothing, just thought, President Fu, you get into character quite quickly."
Fu Shiyan chuckled lightly, "Maybe I’ve always harbored ulterior motives, and now that I’ve finally got what I wanted, it naturally cos easy."
Jiangli laughed in surprise, "President Fu, you’re quite unabashed, huh?"
Fu Shiyan humd, as if in thought, "Why hide it? I like you. I’ve always thought I made it very clear, or was my expression still too subtle?"
Looking into his sincere eyes, Jiangli nearly choked on the iced jelly.
She never expected Fu Shiyan to be so frank and direct.
Suddenly, she was at a loss, not knowing how to respond.
