In his dream, Cang Yan was completely captivated by Mu Tiantian's call of "Brother Yan," and his face turned red.
Mu Tiantian chuckled as she watched his shy yet alluring expression.
She burst out laughing even outside of her dream.
Seeing her smiling happily, Ming Cang lowered his head and asked softly, "Why are you smiling so happily?"
"So Ayan can be shy too..." Mu Tiantian mumbled sleepily, "Brother Yan...do you like me calling you that..."
Ming Cang's expression faltered slightly.
He was in her dreams?
After a long pause, he continued in a low voice, "What if I say I don't like it?"
Mu Tiantian frowned slightly. "Don't like it? Fine, then..."
She turned over, her back to him, and gave a soft snort, "If you don't like it, then I'll call other people that from now on..."
Upon hearing her call someone else that, Ming Cang pulled her forcefully into his arms and said jealously, "No way."
In her sleep, she seemed to hear a sound and took a deep breath.
Ming Cang saw that she had stopped talking in her sleep and her breathing had become irregular, as if she was about to wake up.
He quickly turned her body over, lifted her hands to wrap around his waist, and at the same time draped her legs over himself.
At this moment, Mu Tiantian hugged him like a koala.
Although this process can be tedious, it can be managed.
He closed his eyes before she fully woke up, his breathing steady, as if he were already fast asleep.
Mu Tiantian felt a little dizzy. She yawned, opened her eyes groggily, and saw a blurry shadow in front of her.
Gradually, the shadow took shape, revealing a handsome face, as if sculpted, with a wicked and alluring charm.
Mu Tiantian suddenly woke up and opened her eyes wide.
How did Ming Cang end up in her bed?
She shifted her body and found herself clinging to him like a koala.
She glanced at the bed; it wasn't her bed.
She turned her head and looked around; this wasn't her room either.
How did she get here?
At this moment, Ming Cang's eyelids twitched.
Mu Tiantian stared at him blankly, wondering whether she should pretend to be asleep or ask him what was going on.
Just as she was considering, Ming Cang woke up.
He was looking intently into her dark eyes.
She was trying to figure out how to ask when she heard him ask in a low voice, "Are you awake?"
Mu Tiantian pursed her lips and nodded.
Do you know what you've done?
"What...did I do?" Mu Tiantian couldn't remember what happened after she fell asleep, only vaguely remembering that she seemed to be dreaming.
Her dreams seemed to be filled with happy scenes from the past, but she couldn't remember the specific details of the dreams.
Could she be sleepwalking?
Just as she was thinking this, Ming Cang's words confirmed her thoughts.
Do you know you're sleepwalking?
Mu Tiantian shook her head, somewhat disbelieving.
She knew she had a habit of talking in her sleep, but sleepwalking?
When did she get infected?
Seeing her dazed look, Ming Cang couldn't help but tease her, and said seriously, "After you fell asleep, you sleepwalked and bumped into the door. After I opened the door, you hugged me and wouldn't let go, and even pushed me onto the bed."
Mu Tiantian was starting to believe him when she saw him speaking so seriously.
"Really...really?" Mu Tiantian tried her best to recall, but she couldn't remember anything.
If she's really sleepwalking, she needs treatment!
Ming Cang hummed in agreement.
Mu Tiantian imagined the scene after hearing his description, then gave a dry laugh, "Um... I'll go first, you can continue sleeping, just pretend nothing happened."
She turned to get out of bed, cursing herself for being so pathetic, never forgetting to take advantage of him even in her dreams, and even pushing him onto the bed.
Ming Cang pulled her back by the waist and whispered, "Sleep."
After saying that, Ming Cang buried his face in the crook of her neck and fell asleep, inhaling the faint milky scent emanating from her.
Her scent put him at ease.
Not long after, Mu Tiantian heard steady breathing behind her.
Is he asleep?
System: [Ming Cang's hatred value decreased by 10, currently at 70.]
Mu Tiantian: [Seventh Master, was I really sleepwalking?]
System: [Were you sleepwalking?]
Mu Tiantian: [...Didn't you see what happened after I fell asleep?]
System: [I've gone to find someone for you. I've located the approximate location of Canglan's reincarnation, in a high-lying area in the eastern part of the human realm, but I still need to investigate the exact location.]
Mu Tiantian: [Then you go.]
Qi Tong continued his investigation.
Mu Tiantian thought Ming Cang was asleep, so she gently turned over, and Ming Cang tightened his grip on her arm.
His breath tickled her neck, warm and slightly itchy.
"Tian Tian...why...why are you doing this to me..."
Hearing Ming Cang's dreamy voice, Mu Tiantian said softly, "Ayan, I'm sorry."
"Tian Tian, did you ever truly love me...?"
"I love you, Ayan. Maybe... I can't make you believe it right now, but life is long, and one day I will make you believe it..."
Mu Tiantian's gentle confession completely shattered Ming Cang's last psychological defenses.
He squinted and kissed her delicate neck, then her collarbone.
"Ayan?" Mu Tiantian noticed his movement and called out softly.
Ming Cang didn't speak, but continued kissing, slowly moving down her collarbone...
He removed the black robe he had personally dressed her in, and placed his lips on the lips he had longed for.
If she lies to him, he might... imprison her for life.
