Chapter 67: Behave

His warm breath had a hint of alcohol that scattered across her face like sparks that set a field ablaze.

Ning Li was pinned to the spot while her heart raced so fast that it felt like it was going to burst out of her chest.

Lu Huaiyu got closer.

She instinctively shouted, “Lu Huaiyu!”

Her voice sounded extra clear in the spacious and empty room.

Lu Huaiyu froze, just inches away from her lips. He slightly squinted his eyes.

She stared into his eyes and saw a thin layer of red veins around the edges. He must be looking at her through a layer of mist.

‘He seems…unconscious of his action?!’

Complicated feelings washed over her, but all she did was stare at him.

Lu Huaiyu raised his hand and covered her eyes, so Ning Li fell into darkness right away. Then, she felt a gentle force pushing against her face.

She was stunned for a full second before she realized that Lu Huaiyu had kissed the back of his hand. Her face turned as red as an apple.

“Behave! Don’t make me mad!”

Lu Huaiyu’s voice was soft yet strict, but it also sounded like deadly temptation. Then, he backed away and fell on the bed beside her.

He did not move for quite some time after that.

Ning Li turned to him and realized that his eyes were tightly shut. He seemed to be asleep. She tightened her lips before she got up and draped the blanket over him.

The dark room returned to silence while Ning Li stood beside the bed for quite some time.

Then, she heard a set of hurried footsteps from downstairs.

Ning Li turned around and covered her blushing face with the back of her hands.

“Second Master?”

The door opened to reveal Cheng Xiyue.

Before he could walk into the room, he saw someone standing in front of him, much to his shock.

Ning Li quickly and nervously left the room.

“Little Ning Li? You are still here?” Cheng Xiyue was stunned. He thought she had returned to school after dropping Lu Huaiyu off.

He stole a glance into the room with dismay. “Is Second Master in there?”

Ning Li nodded. “He just fell asleep.”

Cheng Xiyue’s eyes twitched helplessly before he cautiously asked, “Then, then…you are here with him? Did he…do something bad?”

Lu Huaiyu had more than a glass of drink at this timing. Cheng Xiyue had come all the way here in a hurry because he was worried about him.

The intimate scene in the dark kept replaying in Ning Li’s head.

The corridor was decorated with bright lights, looking nothing like the dark and quiet atmosphere in the room.

The door felt like a gateway between two different worlds. What happened in the dark felt like a dream.

She shook her head. “No, but he seems drunk and tired.”

Cheng Xiyue sighed a breath of relief. “Thank goodness.”

He did not hear a sound in the room, so he assumed that Lu Huaiyu was fast asleep. After some thoughts, he decided to stay outside.

“He doesn’t sleep well, so his biological clock is a little messed up.’
