Shu Xian was sleeping soundly on the bed. She found solace in it as she rested.
Her breaths were steady and slow, indicating that she was sleeping like a log. The blanket that gave her warmth lengthened her sleep, giving her a comfortable slumber.
Her pillow that cradled her head relaxed her aching head as her eyes moved in REM—indicating that she is in a dreamlike state of sleep.
"Nnngh…"
Shu Xian turned in her sleep. When she did a stretch, she noticed that there was something heavy on her side, making her body stiffen as her eyebrows furrowed in wonder.
\'Th-this…\' Shu Xian started thinking, staring blankly at the hand that was on her waist. \'This is not Wan Wan\'s… Wan Wan is a dog—she has a paw! This one on me is a human\'s, a hand!\'
With Shu Xian now slowly turning her body to look at who was sleeping beside her on her bed, she almost gasped out loud when she saw the familiar person sleeping soundly beside her.
His black hair was disheveled, and his lips were slightly parted. With his eyebrows slowly knitting together as he felt movement, his eyes were gratefully still closed, making Shu Xian sigh in relief as she didn\'t know what to do—knowing that the professor is sleeping beside her!
Turning to further face him, Shu Xian did it gently and slowly so as to not wake the sleeping man. With her eyes still wide in surprise, she stared at his sleeping face, her heart crazily beating in her chest as she was unsure of how this even happened.
\'Wh-why is the professor sleeping beside me!? Moreover… how am I home? I only remember Pan An visiting us while Ma and I drank. Did he then take me home after that?\'
With that the only recollection of what happened last night that she remembered, she couldn\'t help but furrow her brows, still watching Pan An sleep.
\'Damn… what time is it?\' Shu Xian\'s thoughts kept trailing, Pan An\'s breath fanning over her head. \'Should I wake him up?\'
Her face then started turning red. With how much she has drunk last night, she wasn\'t even sure if she was in her sane mind, making her feel nervous right now if she had given Pan An a headache when she is already feeling bad that he is taking care of her and her dog.
\'Oh, geez… I hope I didn\'t bother him too much last night… aaah!\'
Even though two minutes had already passed since Shu Xian moved, Pan An was still sleeping peacefully beside her. With his arm still on her waist, Shu Xian bit her bottom lip, gently brushing his black hair that covered his eyes.
The moment she did this, Shu Xian couldn\'t help but admire how handsome the professor looked even in his sleep. With him looking this attractive even when he\'s defenseless, it made Shu Xian marvel and gawk at his pulchritude, her heart beating in her chest in a frenzy.
\'If it were another girl… would they attack the professor in his sleep?\'
With that in thought, Shu Xian felt her face heating up. With her hand now holding Pan An\'s face, her thumb caressing his cheek, she couldn\'t help but smile, finding him cute as he was sleeping calmly beside her.
\'I should be surprised,\' Shu Xian thought again, \'But why am I unable to leave his side the moment I saw him beside me?\'
However, what happened next made Shu Xian\'s body stiffen.
Pan An slightly groaned in his sleep, further pulling Shu Xian towards him. With their faces already centimeters away from each other, Shu Xian couldn\'t help but squeal internally, not wanting to wake his peaceful slumber.
\'Wh-why did he pull me closer to him!? It\'s making it difficult for me to breathe!\'
"Nnngh…"
With Pan An letting out another groan, Shu Xian immediately closed her eyes, pretending to be asleep.
As she tried her best to calm her body from stiffening, Shu Xian tried her best to breathe steadily while her eyes were closed, still pretending to be asleep so the professor won\'t suspect a thing.
With Pan An now slowly opening his eyes, the first thing he saw was Shu Xian\'s sleeping face, making him blink his eyes slowly as well as he blankly stared at her.
\'Aah… she\'s still asleep.\'
With a small sigh, Pan An brushed Shu Xian\'s hair away from her face, tucking some of it behind her ear. With a smile then appearing on his face as he did not bother to pull away from the embrace that they\'re both in, he let out a soft chuckle and mumbled to himself.
"Oh, Shu Xian," he started, him unaware that the lady before him is actually awake. "You\'re cutely bothersome. I\'ll make sure that you won\'t drink with other men around."
With Pan An giving her a kiss on her forehead, Shu Xian felt nervous as her heart raced frantically in her chest, scared that the professor would notice and feel it.
But alas, he slowly stood up from the bed and then got his phone from the bedside table. Afterward, he did a stretch, already heading outside of the room after he mumbled to himself again that was enough for the pretending-to-sleep lady on the bed.
"Now, then… time for me to make something for her now that it\'s her turn having a hangover if ever."
Shu Xian slightly opened her eyes. The moment she saw and heard that the professor was already out of the room, she held her breath for who knows how long, making her release it in one go.
"Geez! I didn\'t expect that!"
With Shu Xian now sitting up from her bed with her hand on her chest as if desperate to calm herself down, her face was beet red.
\'I thought he\'s going to mistake me as Ruo Xi again even though he\'s not drunk… but turns out he\'s aware that it\'s me and has even given me a kiss on the head! Aaah!\'
With that in mind, Shu Xian couldn\'t help but squeal, getting her pillow from her bed and putting it on her face so she could silence her scream with it.
