When Anran finished taking a shower and came out wearing his white shirt, Su Yicheng was standing in front of the bookshelf and reading a book. When he heard the bathroom door open, he turned his head, then saw Anran wearing his white shirt, which showed off her slender and shapely legs, her face still flushed from the heat. Su Yicheng couldn’t help but stare with a stupefied expression on his face. He had once heard that women were the sexiest when they were wearing men’s white shirts, and now he had his own personal experience to confirm that it wasn’t just a rumor. It was indeed true.

Anran felt somewhat bashful from being stared at, but she dared not make eye contact with him and merely said, “I’m done. You can take a shower now.” Then, she hopped onto the bed, pulled the quilted covers over herself, then wrapped herself tightly in them, only allowing a pair of flashing eyes to peek out from the covers.

Su Yicheng was both amused and offended by her actions. “Is she trying to defend herself against a perv?”

Seeing him stare straight at her, Anran swallowed a little nervously and said, “I-I’m a bit tired, so I’ll go to bed first. Good night.” After that, she wrapped her entire body with the covers.

Su Yicheng shook his head with mirth, then turned around and took his pajamas from the closet. Then, he headed straight into the bathroom.

Anran covered her head with the covers and started counting sheep. One sheep, two sheep, three sheep…

The bathroom door flung open when she had counted to the 325th sheep. Su Yicheng shuffled out the door, yet, at that time, Anran still hadn’t fallen asleep. She didn’t feel sleepy in the slightest, and her eyes were wide open.

Su Yicheng stared at the figure in the fetal position on the bed and couldn’t help feeling amused yet helpless. They were now husband and wife. After the night before, did they really need to repeat the entire process over again?

He lifted the quilted covers to see the person beside him lying motionlessly. Su Yicheng shook his head mirthfully, then turned off the lamp on the nightstand and laid down beside her.

In the darkness, under the quilt, Su Yicheng reached out and pulled her gently into his arms.

Anran’s body stiffened slightly, yet her eyes remained tightly closed as she feigned sleep.

Su Yicheng suppressed his laughter and lay down while holding her in his arms. Yet, when he looked at her again, he began feeling a little fed up with her playing dead, so he decided to pull a prank as a sense of mischief overcame him. His hands started tickling her, and he could clearly feel her entire body tense up at his touch.

Seeing that she was still playing dead, Su Yicheng’s mischievous hand continued to travel up and down her body. Although he had only intended to play a prank on her initially, as his hands touched her smooth and supple skin, he felt desire rise up inside him, and he could feel his body started to respond accordingly. Then, he remembered the events of the night prior, and his breathing quickened.

Anran still had her eyes closed tightly, yet she couldn’t stop her body from trembling. She also remembered everything from the night before, like the heat of his arms, and how her entire person had been so burning hot that she felt on fire.

“Anran…” Su Yicheng’s hoarse voice sounded behind her. He was no longer able to be satisfied with merely touching her, and he planted a gentle kiss behind her ear as he whispered softly into her ear, “Are you tempting me?”

“No.” Anran shook her head reflexively. Tempt him? How could she be capable of such a thing?! Yet she had forgotten that she was in the process of feigning sleep and therefore had fallen right into his trap.

Su Yicheng let out a low laugh as he kissed her ears lightly while still feeling her up and down with his hands and asked, “Aren’t you supposed to be asleep?”

“Um.” Anran froze, and only then did she realize that she had fallen into his trap. She said sheepishly, “I-I was asleep, but you awoke me.”

Su Yicheng smirked, and couldn’t get over how cute and endearing she was as he held her in his arms. Suddenly, he turned his body over so he was on top and she was underneath. His dark eyes stared at her intently in the dark, and the corners of his mouth curled up in a seductive smile as he asked, “Well since you’re awake, do you want to do some exercises together?”

Of course, Anran wasn’t that naive and knew what he meant by “exercises”.

Her heart tensed up, then she shook her head vigorously and said, “I’m a little tired.”

Su Yicheng grinned as he looked at her, then lowered his head to her ear and whispered, “Then you don’t need to. I will.”

“I—mphhh—”

Su Yicheng didn’t give her a chance to speak again and quickly blocked her mouth with his own by using the most primitive method.

Being awakened while in deep sleep is one of the most horrible experiences people can have. The military area compound cast morning exercises every day. The bell rang at five in the morning, and every corner of the courtyard could clearly hear the bell ringing. Anran felt that she had just closed her eyes when the bell began blaring. She felt as if she was a kid again because her school bell had been just as loud and annoying, and it gave her the same zestful feeling.

She didn’t know when she had fallen asleep that night. All she knew was she was too tired to move and let Su Yicheng hold on to her during the night. She was so sleepy and lethargic that she didn’t even need to continue counting sheep.

Awakened by the blaring bell, Anran shot up from the bed confusedly. Her eyes weren’t even completely open as she asked in a stupor, “Wh-what happened? What happened?”

Su Yicheng stretched out his hands, pulled her back into his arms, and said gently into her ears, “It’s okay, you can continue sleeping. It’s still early.”

Anran was feeling really lethargic, so she actually did fall back asleep.

Su Yicheng looked at her drowsy countenance and lowered his head to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead. Then, he got out of bed, took out a training suit from his closet, put it on, and then headed straight out the door.

When Anran woke up again, it was exactly seven o’clock, and she heard drills being shouted outside the house. Looking at the other side of the bed, she found that it was no longer warm. She only vaguely remembered him telling her it was still early and had no memory of the following. She stared at the ceiling light fixture, and only then did she remember that she was no longer in Su Yicheng’s downtown apartment.

She grabbed her phone from the nightstand to check the time. It was exactly seven o’clock. She still had to go to the construction site in the morning, and, at the moment, she was about an hour away from the city area. Considering this, she didn’t have much time left for grooming.

Anran quickly got off the bed to wash her face. Yet as soon as she got off the bed, her intense body ache reminded her of their wild night, and her face turned bright red.

“Damn Su Yicheng.” She cursed him resentfully while dragging her aching body to change her clothes.

When she came out of the bedroom and into the living room, the maid was placing tableware on the table, while Qin Yun was making breakfast in the kitchen. Seeing this, Anran came forward to help and retrieved the side dishes from the kitchen to place on the table.

At first, Qin Yun thought that the maid had entered the kitchen, so she asked her to bring the pot of white porridge to the dining table as well. Anran promptly agreed and was just about to take away the porridge when Qin Yun suddenly discerned that the voice was different, then turned around to see Anran standing there smiling.

“Anron, why are you up so early?” Qin Yun held her hand as she said, “Ah, you aren’t accustomed to the compound yet and the noisy morning exercises outside woke you up, right?”

Anran shook her head. “No, I have to go to work in the morning, so I must get up early.”

Qin Yun nodded, then, suddenly catching sight of the faint red mark on her neck, she started smiling ambiguously.
