Shu Ran had never slept so soundly and sweetly since she turned twenty.
It was simply because she had a wonderful dream.
In the dream, she lay on a lush green meadow, soft and very comfortable.
The fragrant scent of flowers and plants in the air seeped into her heart, and she squinted her eyes, enjoying the gentle warmth of the sun.
The sound of birds chirping in the trees was neither too far nor too close, perfectly soothing to her ears.
At that moment, her heart felt incredibly peaceful.
Time seemed to stretch on like it had lasted a century.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from beside her.
Shu Ran turned her head in confusion to look at the source of the noise. She saw a pure white rabbit hopping beside her, staring at her with its pair of red eyes, looking dazed.
Wow, it was so cute.
Shu Ran couldn't help but reach out to touch its fluffy head.
But at the moment she made contact, Shu Ran suddenly frowned.
Strange, why did this little white rabbit's fur feel less soft than she had imagined?
She was puzzled but didn't think much of it as she slowly moved her delicate hand down from the rabbit's head.
Hmm???
What is this uneven surface?
Huh???
What is this soft and warm thing?
As she touched it, suddenly someone grabbed her hand.
Shu Ran was startled and woke up.
She opened her eyes, blinking in confusion.
Half a second later, her eyes widened in disbelief as she stared intently at the exquisite and handsome face in front of her, unable to react for a long time.
What is this...
"Awake?" Qin Xian looked at her with burning eyes, still holding onto the hand that had been randomly touching his face, smiling playfully.
Shu Ran finally snapped out of her shock and pulled back her hand that he was tightly holding. She jumped up from the bed and nervously pointed at him, asking, "Qin Xian, why are you sleeping here..."
Qin Xian leisurely got up from the bed and smiled back at her, "This is my room. Where else would I sleep?"
"Your room...?" Shu Ran finally raised her eyes to look around the entire room, realizing that this was not the side room Qin Xian had arranged for her to rest in.
It was the master bedroom—his room.
So why was she in the master bedroom???
"Why am I here?" she asked him, lowering her eyes and suddenly catching sight of her clothes, realizing they were not the outfit she wore to yesterday's banquet, but a set of white silk pajamas.
"What happened to my clothes...???"
Waking up early in the morning, she was overwhelmed with too many shocks and questions. This left Shu Ran feeling a bit dazed, completely unable to grasp the situation.
He leaned forward, slowly raising his hand to caress her confused face, his smile gentle. "Have you forgotten what happened last night?"
Last night?
What happened last night?
Last night she attended Old Qin's Birthday Banquet and had a few drinks.
Then...
What happened next?
She stared at him blankly, her mind in a jumble, unable to recall for a moment.
His smile stirred something in her heart.
Could it be that she did something to him last night? Or did they both do something that shouldn't have happened?
Looking at the pajamas that had inexplicably appeared on her, her doubts deepened.
It couldn't be...
The more she recalled, the less she could remember.
Qin Xian looked at her, her face inexplicably flushed, stealing glances at her pajamas from time to time, biting her lip in embarrassment, her expression tense to the extreme.
At first, he was puzzled by her reaction.
However, in less than a second, he suddenly understood that his little girl seemed to have misunderstood something.
He couldn't help but laugh, "What are you thinking about?"
She shook her head in denial, feeling guilty. "Nothing, nothing at all."
Of course, she couldn't tell him what she was thinking; it was too difficult to speak of and would be so embarrassing.
Qin Xian affectionately ruffled her hair, but the color in his eyes darkened little by little.
Foolish girl, she didn't know how hard he was trying to hold himself back.
She had lain beside him last night, soft and warm next to him; if he didn't react at all, he wouldn't be a man.
He forced himself to stay far away from her.
He didn't dare to look at her sleeping posture or catch even a whiff of her scent.
He feared that if he glanced at her or caught even a hint of her fragrance, he would lose control.
He stayed awake all night, and when he could no longer bear it, he spent over two hours in the bathroom before finally coming out.
Shu Ran was truly confused, her mind blank, unable to recall anything.
"Can't remember?" He gradually approached her, repeating what she had said last night, "You said you hoped our relationship would be serious."
"You said you cared about me, that you liked me, and that you wouldn't leave me."
With each word, her pupils dilated as memories from her drunken state surfaced one by one.
She held him close, kissed him, and clung to him tightly, not wanting him to leave.
"When it comes to a relationship, once it begins, I hope it is serious from start to finish."
"Don't go, please don't go."
"Don't leave me here alone."
She remembered everything.
She remembered it all.
Recalling these scenes, Shu Ran felt both embarrassed and awkward; a blush slowly spread across her face, making her too shy to even look at him.
She knew… she would definitely do something foolish when drunk…
"Remember now?" Qin Xian looked at her expression and knew she had recalled everything. "Do you need me to explain why you're here?"
He was teasing her, a meaningful smile on his face.
Shu Ran shook her head vigorously in refusal, "No, no..."
She looked down at her newly changed clothes and said softly, "What about my clothes?"
Qin Xian understood her meaning immediately, "You reeked of alcohol last night, so I had Aunt Chen change you into a new outfit."
"Oh." Shu Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Are the questions done? Now it's my turn."
"Ah?" Shu Ran looked up and realized that at some point, Qin Xian had already climbed beside her.
She was kneeling on the edge of the bed, with no support behind her. He leaned over her, gradually closing the distance between them.
The masculine scent surrounding him filled her nostrils, slowly eroding her ability to think, making her heart race as if she couldn't breathe.
She dared not move; there was no support behind her, and in front of her stood the aggressively imposing Qin Xian.
She could only turn her face away, trying to avoid his burning gaze.
But Qin Xian would not give her that chance. He grasped her delicate chin and turned her face toward him, forcing her to look at him openly.
"Shu Ran, I want you to tell me directly—do you like me or not?"
