Last night, Wu Rong took a moment to think about this matter. He realized he shouldn't forcefully correct anything. For the first time, he pondered over the troubles of a 'mortal,' and this was as far as his thoughts could go.
He came to understand that as long as Rao Jie felt happy and content, that was enough. After all, he would always be by her side, even if she spent her entire life contemplating it. He would always be there for her.
With this thought in mind, Wu Rong couldn't help but say gently, "So don't worry, I will be by your side."
Rao Jie felt a stir in her heart. Did this statement carry some ambiguity? It sounded strange; after all, she wouldn't always live with the Wu Family. Why did Wu Rong's words give off a sense of permanence?
Though she didn't dwell on it further, an odd feeling began to creep over her. She looked up at Wu Rong, and under the morning sunlight, he truly looked handsome, stirring something within her.
"Thank you, Wu Rong... ah... I mean, Professor Wu."
Wu Rong was taken aback. Hearing Rao Jie call his name with her soft and delicate voice made him feel something profound. If only she could have woken up last night and called his name while lying beneath him...
Wu Rong couldn't help but let his imagination wander.
However, Rao Jie felt invigorated by their recent conversation; her mood lightened significantly, and any lingering gloom seemed to vanish.
She wasn't like Wu Rong; on the path of life, she couldn't run but could only walk slowly and explore gradually. But that was okay; she wasn't in a hurry. Just as Wu Rong said, taking it slow was fine. Her life was still long ahead of her; she couldn't let such trivial matters bring her down.
Taking a deep breath, she set off once more.
With her spirits lifted, a smile spread across Rao Jie's face. She wanted to tell Wu Rong that she would get up and make him breakfast right away. However, when her gaze swept over to him, she encountered an awkward scene.
She suddenly remembered why she had kicked Wu Rong earlier.
Men often had such reactions in the morning; it was normal for Wu Rong to be like this. But why had it persisted for so long? Was it just her imagination, or did it seem even more pronounced now?
Feeling embarrassed, Rao Jie quickly averted her gaze and bit her lip.
But with that bite came a sudden memory—though there were no visual memories, the tactile sensations remained vivid.
Had she dreamed about something?
No, it couldn't have been that clear in a dream. Besides, her lips felt slightly swollen; could it be that in reality...
Regardless of where it came from, she remembered that breath and sensation—it was definitely Wu Rong.
He wouldn't take advantage of someone in a vulnerable state.
Yet thinking back on Wu Rong's morning reaction and how tightly they had embraced each other made Rao Jie feel a shiver run down her spine.
Her body felt a bit off, as if something heavy had pressed down on her. She couldn't tell if it was just her mind playing tricks or if it was something more... real.
As the thought crossed her mind, Rao Jie’s face instantly flushed. Her head felt hot, and she couldn't help but ask, “Professor Wu… last night… we didn’t do anything strange, did we? I was in a deep sleep, and you…”
Wu Rong's heart was already in turmoil, and her sudden question made his expression change dramatically.
Seeing his reaction, Rao Jie panicked and asked, “Could it be… you feel something for me…” Although she didn’t finish her sentence, she instinctively pulled the blanket tighter around herself.
Wu Rong quickly composed himself and replied sternly, “What are you thinking? Our clothes are perfectly fine; what could we have done? Besides, am I that kind of person? Would I take advantage of you while you were asleep?”
