Strangely enough, although they spent more time sleeping at night, an afternoon nap somehow felt deeper and more comfortable.
Wen Zhixia was woken by a faint tickling sensation.
It came from the sole of her foot, as though someone were playing with her feet...
Still groggy, she drew her little feet back and instinctively hugged Chen Shi'an's pillow tighter, her eyelids so heavy she didn't want to open them.

Wen Zhixia slapped away the little foot
