Last night, the rain had been sparse and the wind fierce, yet deep sleep could not dispel the lingering effects of wine.
Mei, who had been thoroughly plied with alcohol all night, was still slightly groggy when she woke in the morning. Her unclothed body lay exposed to the sunlight, her fair skin reflecting a beautiful halo.
The Origin armor had naturally been withdrawn long ago. Mei had not had the energy to maintain it last night. After all... that might have been her most exhausting night ever.
Even her first time with Xu Qi had never left her feeling this tired.
But what came after the fatigue was naturally a comfort beyond imagination.
So when Mei woke, before she could even restore her groggy mind to full awareness, what she recalled first was last night's experience.
That felt good...
She had truly become immersed in it, unable to pull herself free.
A few sounds escaped her throat, as though she were expressing her feelings. She wanted to slowly sit up, but found that her hair seemed to have been pinned down by someone.
She glanced to the side from the corner of her eye and saw Xu Qi still fast asleep.
This idiot pinned my hair down again.
Left with no choice, she carefully freed the strands trapped beneath Xu Qi bit by bit. Only then could Mei sit up. By that point, the fog in her head had mostly cleared.
After stretching, Mei was surprised to see that Xu Qi was still asleep.
She retied her loose long hair, bent down, and lay half atop Xu Qi before kissing the corner of his mouth.
"You big bad wolf. Every night, you have to work me over until I feel like I'm about to fall apart before you'll stop.
