consequences!Lin Jinran raised her hand, her flushed face flashing a moment of hesitation before she pressed it hard onto the injured shoulder."Ah." Lin Jinran let out a cry of pain, the agony instan...His black eyes stared at the woman's hair, tilting his head back to finish the red wine in his glass. He placed the glass on the nightstand, where it made a soft clink.

As the forest came to an end, Lin's heart tightened, and he felt an almost involuntary urge to move away.

The night owl's teasing voice came, "Are you preparing to sleep underground"

The next second, a pair of long hands fell on his shoulders and grabbed him tightly.

Lin Jinran suddenly opened his eyes and screamed, "Ah!"

The person was dragged to the middle of the bed and directly locked in Night Owl's arms, "Go to sleep."

As soon as the words left his mouth, the bedside lamp was switched off.

"Let me go!" Lin Jinran struggled, trying to break free from Ye Xiao's grasp.

"Not bad" Chang Wei's long arm pressed her tightly, not allowing her to move at all. Ye Xiao's jaw rested on Lin Jinyan's head, rubbing gently against her soft hair, "Move around again, and I'll make you tired beyond movement."

In one sentence, success stopped Lin Jinran's struggling. She pouted and nestled in Ye Xiao's arms, her nostrils filled with the scent of bath gel and a faint hint of mint, clearly feeling the man's arm across her waist.

Her nervously clenched fingers were like a stone, stiff and motionless. She huddled there, her eyes reddening with discomfort.

The man's breath sprayed onto her hair, a tingling sensation that sent shivers down Lin Jinran's spine.

"Could you please not hug me I'm not used to it."

"You'll get used to it eventually." Ye Xiao replied curtly, using his finger to grip Lin Jinran's nape and pressing him against his chest.

"Sleep."

Her ear, almost pressed against the owl's sleeping clothes, could faintly hear the man's strong heartbeat. How could she possibly sleep now

After spending several hours wide awake, the sound of the man's even breathing reached Lin Jinran's ears. As if granted a reprieve, she raised her numb hand and gently grasped the arm of Ye Xiao who was holding her in his embrace at her waist, trying to push herself up to break free.

The moment his fingers brushed against the night owl's wrist, the man's voice rumbled in a low nasal tone, "Don't move."

Lin Jinran, frightened, retracted his hand like a guilty thief and didn't dare to move.

This time, she was going to wait a while longer. Maybe the Night Owl would fall asleep, and she could slip away quietly.

Without realizing it, his eyelids grew heavier and heavier. Before he could even put his plan into action, Lin Jinran fell asleep.

This time, she dreamt of an octopus clinging to her tightly. No matter how she struggled, she couldn't break free from its grasp.

I fought an octopus all night in my dream, completely exhausted.

She woke up to find that he had indeed held her in his arms all night. Not only that, but her legs were pinned down by him.

No wonder she was so tired in her dreams, it was all because of the night owl!

Staring at the sleeping man’s face, his anger wavered. He had to admit, Ye Xiao was indeed handsome, his features meticulously carved, a feast for the eyes.

If not for her overly domineering demeanor, she would truly be an object worthy of artistic appreciation.

Thinking about how she slept restlessly while he slept soundly, an imbalance arose in his heart.

Annoyed, she raised her hand and ripped away the man's palm from her waist, deliberately waking Ye Xiao. Seeing him open his slightly dazed eyes.

Lin Jinran smiled without a hint of remorse, "I'm going to the bathroom."

After regaining her senses, the night owl moved her arms and legs away from Lin Jinyan, giving him his freedom. She hurriedly scrambled off the bed, put on her slippers, and rushed into the bathroom.

He slammed the door shut and went to wash up.

A cool splash of water refreshed Lin Jin's face.

Taking off the towel, she dabbed her face and couldn't help but feel annoyed. She hadn't finished her plan last night and had fallen asleep in Night Owl's arms instead. the organization, she had shaken off the trailing bodyguard and confirmed that there were no tracking devices on her person.When she was imprisoned by Hei Ling Xiu, she thought they wouldn't be able...
