With those words, Lu Xize turned and left, making sure to close the door for Chu Yao behind him.
Chu Yao sat stunned on the edge of the bed. 'What is going on?'
After staring into space for a few seconds, Chu Yao got off the bed. She carefully opened the door and peeked out through the crack.
She saw Lu Xize standing in front of the sofa with his back to her, bent over and arranging the bedding.
Chu Yao quickly closed the door and leaned back against it. 'So, he's going to sleep on the sofa himself and not fight me for the bed?'
Chu Yao grabbed her pajamas and went into the bathroom. She turned on the shower, and water streamed down from above, gently tapping against her skin. The stream fell from the top of her head and soaked her eyelashes. Chu Yao blinked, her vision blurring.
Today had been absolutely surreal.
'A bit baffling, a bit dazing, a bit awkward, a bit embarrassing, and also... a bit sweet?'
