After turning off the lights, I went to sleep.

Soon after, I heard her even and soothing breathing from beside me.

Using the dim light streaming in from the window, Leng Yue quietly watched the sleeping Su Qingyao.

My mood is like a spilled spice jar, a mix of various flavors.

Her mind kept replaying the strange things Lu Qingzhou had done to her, and her earlobes began to feel slightly hot again.

The night was long and my thoughts were racing; I tossed and turned, unable to fall asleep.

She didn't know how much time had passed, but it wasn't until the middle of the night that she finally drifted off to sleep.

early morning,

A series of chaotic footsteps echoed in the hallway as Su Qingyao and the others got up and washed up.

As Lu Qingzhou straightened his collar, he glanced at Su Qingyao, who was combing her hair, a barely perceptible hint of nervousness flashing in his eyes.

He tentatively asked, "Is Leng Yue still not up? What time did she go to bed last night?"

As soon as he said those words, Lu Qingzhou regretted them instantly.

Su Qingyao turned her head and looked at Lu Qingzhou's face, replying with a puzzled expression, "How would I know? I fell asleep as soon as I got into bed. Who would notice what time she went to sleep?"

After saying that, she suddenly realized something and asked suspiciously, "Wait, how did you know Leng Yue was sleeping in my room?"

Lu Qingzhou was speechless for a moment, her heart clenched, and her brain raced.

How am I supposed to explain this? Am I supposed to say that I went to your room last night, mistook Leng Yue for you, and then… wouldn't that be suicide?

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and made up a story: "Oh, when I woke up this morning, I went to your room to call you and saw Leng Yue sleeping in your bed, that's why I asked."

After saying that, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Hearing this, Su Qingyao didn't press the matter further. "She's such a grown woman and still sleeping in. Come on, let's go wake her up." With that, she took Lu Qingzhou's arm.

Lu Qingzhou felt a little guilty and didn't want to go at all, but Su Qingyao had already taken his arm and was walking towards the stairwell, so he couldn't break free.

There was no other way but to bite the bullet and go up to take a look.

Pushing open the door, Lu Qingzhou and Su Qingyao entered the bedroom.

Leng Yue lay languidly on the bed, most of her jade-like legs exposed, her skin as white as snow.

That's not a big deal, but what's really amusing is that Leng Yue was sucking her fingers in her sleep, looking just like a sleepy little child.

Lu Qingzhou almost burst out laughing when he saw this.

But when he saw Su Qingyao's eyes, he quickly suppressed his laughter.

Su Qingyao stepped forward, pulled the blanket over Leng Yue's legs, and said helplessly, "You're such a grown-up, and you're still sucking your fingers. When will you ever break this habit?"

Looking at Leng Yue's playful and adorable appearance, Lu Qingzhou couldn't help but tease her, "This is how a girl should be, why would she need to quit?"

As soon as those words were spoken,

Su Qingyao was slightly taken aback. Lu Qingzhou's driving caught her off guard, and she didn't react for a moment.

Seeing Lu Qingzhou's mischievous grin, she immediately understood what was going on, and her pretty face instantly turned red with embarrassment.

She playfully raised her little fist and gently hit Lu Qingzhou, saying in a sweet voice, "You're so naughty, how could you make such a joke?"

The two played around in the room for a while, which instantly woke Leng Yue from her sleep.

She opened her eyes groggily, still smacking her fingers with her lips.

But when she saw Lu Qingzhou clearly, she was as if she had been electrocuted. She quickly shrank into the quilt and scolded loudly, "You scoundrel, why did you come to my room?"

Lu Qingzhou was speechless. This was his wife's room, for crying out loud.

However, looking at Leng Yue's shy appearance, he chuckled to himself and shrugged, saying, "I didn't want to come either. Okay, I'll go out first. You should get up quickly; breakfast is ready."

"Get out of here right now, hurry up!" Leng Yue yelled reproachfully, completely covered by the blanket.

Su Qingyao, standing beside Leng Yue, was completely dumbfounded by the woman's expression. Her eyes were wide open, filled with disbelief.

She rarely saw Leng Yue so shy. Normally, Leng Yue was always carefree and boisterous, appearing before everyone with a lively and energetic manner, like a tomboy. At this moment…

Su Qingyao couldn't help but scrutinize Leng Yue a few more times, as if trying to see through her.

Her subconscious action startled Leng Yue, causing her heart to pound uncontrollably and filling her with panic.

Leng Yue took a few deep breaths, quickly calming herself down.

He thought to himself, 'I'm a victim, what am I afraid of? It should be Yao Yao giving me an explanation, right?'

Soon, Leng Yue found a very reasonable excuse for herself, and her expression gradually returned to normal.

Seeing that Leng Yue was getting ready to get up, and since he also didn't want to stay in the bedroom any longer, Lu Qingzhou greeted the two of them and then left the bedroom.

Only Su Qingyao and Leng Yue remained in the room. Su Qingyao leisurely packed her things by the bedside, glancing occasionally at Leng Yue, who was still lazing in bed.

Leng Yue was dawdling, still sleepy-eyed, and couldn't get up for a long time, looking lazy and confused.

Su Qingyao glanced at her and couldn't help but complain, "What were you doing behind my back last night? It's so late, get up now."

Upon hearing Su Qingyao's words, Leng Yue felt as if struck by lightning, her previously dazed mind instantly clearing. Images flashed through her mind...

Her cheeks burned uncontrollably, turning a striking red as if they were on fire.

At that moment, she was like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on. She jolted awake, jumped out of bed, and hurriedly started getting dressed.
