After holding his phone until past eleven o'clock, Bai Jingyuan was also a little tired. He locked the screen, put the phone next to his pillow, closed his eyes, and lay down obediently.

Gu Qingqiu hadn't made a sound since she turned off the lights. Bai Jingyuan figured she must have fallen asleep from exhaustion. He thought that Gu Qingqiu had come all the way from somewhere else to find him, so she must have had a long and tiring journey.

The truth is that Gu Qingqiu did fall asleep because she had some dangerous thoughts, but she couldn't stay up that late, so she decided to take a light nap to recharge. Of course, just to be on the safe side, she specifically instructed the system to wake her up in three hours before she fell asleep.

The male protagonist system was about to criticize Gu Qingqiu for her lazy behavior of being in the same room with the male protagonist but doing nothing, but seeing that she seemed to have something to say, it remained silent.

After three hours of deep sleep, Gu Qingqiu opened her eyes, refreshed, and after adjusting to the darkness, looked at Bai Jingyuan on the bed next to her.

A thin slit was left in the curtains, and moonlight streamed into the room, illuminating Bai Jingyuan's serene sleeping face.

Bai Jingyuan slept very quietly, with his hands at his sides and not moving at all.

Gu Qingqiu suddenly felt a little guilty, but she quickly convinced herself. She quietly got out of bed, then quietly sat on the edge of Bai Jingyuan's bed, and carefully lifted one side of the quilt and crawled inside.

Bai Jingyuan's steady breathing paused slightly, as if he was somewhat puzzled as to why the spacious and soft bed suddenly felt a bit cramped. However, having gotten used to the small beds in his rented room, he didn't find it too uncomfortable.

Gu Qingqiu was reluctant to disturb his sleep. The thought of Bai Jingyuan living in such a poor room for so long made her feel sorry for him. In the end, she quietly wrapped her arms around Bai Jingyuan's arm, put one foot on his foot, and continued to sleep on her side.

Bai Jingyuan slept soundly through the night. It was the first time he had ever slept on such a soft mattress, and he felt extremely comfortable. However, he felt a little hot. Bai Jingyuan opened his eyes slightly and discovered the source of the heat—Gu Qingqiu was sleeping next to him!

Bai Jingyuan pinched himself hard to keep from screaming, then nervously checked his body. Thankfully... nothing seemed to have happened...

However, the noise woke Gu Qingqiu up. She rubbed her sleepy eyes and said, "Good morning, Jingzai."

"Good morning..." Bai Jingyuan said stiffly, "Why are you in my bed?"

Gu Qingqiu looked troubled. "I had a nightmare last night. When I woke up, I kept worrying that someone was hiding in the closet. I was so scared that I could only sleep with Jingzai in my arms."

"Oh...oh..." Bai Jingyuan turned his face away awkwardly. "Now that it's dawn, sister shouldn't be scared anymore, right? Can you let go of my hand now?"

Gu Qingqiu's eyes darted around, and she pressed even closer to him. "No, it feels so comfortable to hug Jingzai!"

Bai Jingyuan was shocked and tried to break free, "Sister, please don't do this, I..."

A young body always has certain peculiar reactions at this awkward time in the morning, which are completely beyond Bai Jingyuan's control, even if he doesn't have those thoughts right now...

Amidst the struggle and play, Gu Qingqiu noticed Bai Jingyuan's unusual behavior and smiled, "Young man."

Bai Jingyuan blushed and closed his eyes in embarrassment. "Sister, please let me get out of bed."

Gu Qingqiu thought for a moment, then reached out and removed the covering from Bai Jingyuan's body, soothing the parts of him that were slightly aroused. "Don't be afraid, sister will help you."

Bai Jingyuan was stunned. He never dared to imagine that he would experience this scene. Even he himself rarely... felt this way.

Shame and pleasure went hand in hand, causing him to let out a sigh that sounded like he was enjoying himself. His hand had unknowingly landed on Gu Qingqiu's body.

Gu Qingqiu continued her actions rhythmically. Seeing Bai Jingyuan's brain malfunction, she mischievously bit his shoulder, and then felt his breathing become even heavier.

After an unknown amount of time, when even Gu Qingqiu's hands were aching terribly, Bai Jingyuan suddenly seemed to regain his senses and anxiously tried to push Gu Qingqiu away, "Sister, stop...stop..."

Seeing this, Gu Qingqiu quickened her pace. Bai Jingyuan felt a flash of white light before his eyes, as if he had briefly reached a state of bliss.

Bai Jingyuan was panting heavily, his eyes were no longer clear, and he stared blankly at the ceiling.

Taking advantage of Bai Jingyuan's lack of reaction, Gu Qingqiu quickly kissed him on the chin, then got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash her hands, feeling satisfied.

A few minutes later, Bai Jingyuan belatedly realized that he was trembling all over. He had actually... he had actually... been captured by his sister...

Overwhelmed with shame, Bai Jingyuan curled up in bed, knowing without looking in a mirror that he was as red as a boiled shrimp.

But Gu Qingqiu had already come out of the bathroom at some point, looking at the bewildered Bai Jingyuan with amusement, "Weren't you going to get out of bed?"

Bai Jingyuan buried his head in the blanket and whispered, "Sister, please spare me..."

"I have to go out. You can stay here. I just ordered food for you, and it will be delivered in half an hour." If you need to go out, remember to take your room key.

Gu Qingqiu gave a few instructions and then left. Actually, she didn't have anything to deal with, and it wasn't a real business trip. She just felt that she should give Bai Jingyuan some time alone to process things, and she didn't want to push him too hard.

Only after Gu Qingqiu left the room did Bai Jingyuan dare to peek his head out from under the covers.

His mind was in turmoil, and a sense of shame he had never felt before left him feeling lost.

Upon reflection, he realized that he didn't actually dislike being around Gu Qingqiu, nor did he reject the feeling; in fact, he even...liked it.

But he couldn't bring himself to say these words. He didn't even know what his relationship with Gu Qingqiu was.

Is it really like the TV series he randomly clicked on last night?

Would Gu Qingqiu really make fun of herself? But she looks so beautiful and wealthy, she must have plenty of outstanding guys around her, right? How could she possibly be attracted to her just because she's good at games?

Bai Jingyuan felt like a young girl in love, constantly wondering if the other person had really fallen for him.
