"You don't need to be afraid of falling in love, nor do you need to confine yourself by drawing boundaries, right?"
Xue Xiaodie held his hand and spoke these words. The girl's voice was soft and gentle, like a feather, seeping into his mind. In short, the scene, coupled with the tender physical contact, was quite convincing.
Lu Zhe fell silent.
He suddenly realized that the girl in front of him must also be a reincarnated person, someone he had spent a long time with in the past, which explained her current initiative. This meant that she already knew him very well. In other words, he was already finding it difficult to resist Xue Xiaodie's advances, let alone now, in his hesitant and bewildered state, how could his defenses hold?
It was as if a little voice was whispering in her ear, 'Don't force yourself, just say yes, she's such a good girl...'
Fortunately, he still retained some basic rationality and understood that becoming a scumbag was not what he wanted.
Moreover, tonight is clearly not the time for Xue Xiaodie to make her final stand.
After a short silence, the girl took Lu Zhe's hand and brought it to her face, gently pressing the back of his hand against her cheek.
Xue Xiaodie said softly, "I don't know if you feel this way, but sometimes I feel a little unwilling before going to bed. It's like the day is about to end before I've had much fun. There's not much time for entertainment; I'm busy with work and drawing all day. But if you're wondering what to do, I don't know what's fun..."
Lu Zhe: "That's normal, I often feel that way too."
Xue Xiaodie smiled gently: "Then if I feel unhappy before bed in the future, I'll chat with you, okay?"
Lu Zhe: "Uh... okay."
It was the same problem. His hand pressed against the girl's delicate cheek, meeting her tender, alluring eyes, he felt his heart melt. Unless it was an obviously unreasonable request, he simply couldn't refuse.
Any straight man would probably find it hard to refuse.
"I'm going back to sleep now..." Xue Xiaodie suddenly looked down at the floor, "Huh, where are my slippers?"
Lu Zhe: "Under the bed, right?"
The words had barely left his mouth when he saw Xue Xiaodie leaning over the bed, peering under it, and he was horrified. There was someone hiding under the bed; if she peeked out, wouldn't she give them away?
He quickly added, "You're going to twist your ankle like that. Try to reach it with your foot, or I can help you."
Xue Xiaodie looked up at him and smiled, "It's okay, I've already touched it."
She held onto the edge of the bed with her left hand and pulled her slippers out from under the bed with her right.
Lu Zhe breathed a silent sigh of relief.
Then, Xue Xiaodie finally left the bedroom.
As for whether the person under the bed was exposed or not... Lu Zhe didn't want to dwell on that question, nor could he bring himself to ask.

When Xue Xiaodie reached for the slippers, Tang Qi froze.
The slippers were right in front of her, less than ten centimeters from the young lady's eyes. And when Xue Xiaodie reached out her hand, Tang Qi felt as if she could blow a breath onto Xue Xiaodie's hand.
So the young lady didn't even dare to breathe.
Fortunately, Xue Xiaodie took the slippers out from under the bed and then left.
Tang Qi waited a little longer until the door closed, then heard Lu Zhe say in a low voice, "Alright, come out now."
She finally crawled out from under the bed.
Lu Zhe pulled her by the forearm and helped her up, letting her sit on the edge of the bed.
Tang Qi patted her clothes, her face full of relief: "I was almost scared to death just now, you know... Luckily, Sister Xiaodie didn't look under the bed, otherwise she would have been scared too."
This is easy to understand. After all, suddenly seeing someone under the bed at night would definitely be frightening.
But Lu Zhe said, "I don't think you'll necessarily be scared by her."
Tang Qi was taken aback: "Why..."
Lu Zhe: "Xiao Die probably already guessed that you were hiding under the bed."
Tang Qi's mouth dropped open in astonishment: "No way!"
Just as the two were looking at each other in bewilderment, there was a sudden knock on the bedroom door.
Tang Qi scrambled back under the bed.
Lu Zhe asked loudly, "What's wrong?"
Xue Xiaodie opened the door, stared at him, and smiled gently, "What would you like for breakfast tomorrow?"
"Well..." Lu Zhe scratched his head, "I'm fine with anything, you can arrange it."
Xue Xiaodie tilted her head: "You'll have no problem with whatever I arrange?"
Lu Zhe calmly said, "I believe in your cooking skills."
"Okay, see you tomorrow morning."
After Xue Xiaodie finished speaking, she closed the door again.
Then, after nearly ten seconds, the young lady under the bed finally spoke up in a muffled voice: "She's finally gone, isn't she?"
Lu Zhe: "She should have left. And why did she knock on the door before opening it this time? Maybe she deliberately gave you some time to prepare, so you could hide."
Tang Qi crawled out from under the bed again, pouting with a face full of grievance: "Since you already guessed I was here, why did you still do this... to deliberately mess with me!"
Lu Zhe said helplessly, "It should be a warning. Didn't you say there was an agreement between the two of you?"
Tang Qi stood up, but dared not sit on the bed again. Instead, she stood at the bathroom door. That way, if Xue Xiaodie came in again, she could hide in the bathroom.
The young lady's expression was conflicted. She felt wronged, yet also guilty, knowing she was in the wrong.
After hesitating for a while, she scratched her hair as if giving up: "Whatever! Let her do whatever she wants. Just keep an eye on things for me. As long as she's not waiting for me in the living room, I'm going back to sleep."
