Chapter 33 — The Culinary Arts Function

As the twilight faded into darkness, Qin Jiran and Su Yanyi felt more and more complicated about their situation. Although they were both still awake, neither seemed to have any intentions of opening their mouth. Their eyes were closed as they sunk into their thoughts about the person lying next to them, among other things.

They assumed that it would be hard to fall asleep because it was their first time sharing a bed with each other, but as they lost themselves to their thoughts, their minds eventually dragged them into the oblivion of sleep.

However, in the middle of the night, Qin Jiran woke up to the weight of someone lying on his chest. He didn’t know when, but Su Yanyi had moved in her sleep.

How was he supposed to fall back asleep when the woman he loved was draped over him?

Nervous, his Adam’s apple bobbed, and he tried to remain completely motionless as he surrendered his body for her to use as a pillow.

Unfortunately, staying still didn’t spare him from the indescribable sensation of her wonderful softness. He didn’t know how he was supposed to endure it, but even if he couldn’t endure it, he had to endure it!

The painful night dragged on as he chanted to himself, endure it, endure it, endure it.

…..

At daybreak, Su Yanyi was the first to wake up. It was probably because she’d slept soundly all night. Her eyes were still closed when she sensed that there was an unnatural heat source surrounding her body. It was warm and strange to the touch.

She rubbed and pinched at it as her mind gradually cleared, and then she tried to sit up by using the “bed” as her leverage. Right as she discovered that it wasn’t the bed, the pressure she placed on the man’s chest startled him awake, and he opened his eyes just in time to see her hovering above him.

Vexation could be seen on her face. When their eyes abruptly met, she was stunned into a momentary daze. The two stared at each other, both seemingly clueless on how they should react.

“Good morning, it’s time to wake up.” The first one to regain her composure was Su Yanyi. Even though her expression had reverted back to its usual cold indifference, anyone would be able to spot the lingering trace of annoyance in it if they looked closely enough.

Despite her best efforts to feign calmness as she moved her hand off his chest and hurriedly escaped into the bathroom, it wasn’t hard to tell that she was flustered.

“Good morning,” Qin Jiran answered in a low voice, well after she got off the bed. Through the sight of her fleeing back, he could sense her embarrassment, which he couldn’t help but find cute. The corners of his lips curved to form a handsome arch.

Fortunately, the System had stopped sending out notifications after the first task was completed; otherwise, Su Yanyi’s hackles definitely would’ve raised in embarrassment.

After changing out of her pajamas, she left the bathroom. Qin Jiran went in after her.

She started to tidy up her things. When she caught sight of the delicate pistol she had gotten from her brother, it reminded her that she’d never tried out the Space Dimension function.

With a thought, she succeeded in making the pistol disappear, and then a System panel popped up showing the pistol inside. Her interest piqued, she thought again and the pistol reappeared in her hand.

Qin Jiran came out of the bathroom just in time to see her holding the pistol. He raised an eyebrow and chose to not say anything about it. After all, he’d always known that the Su family wasn’t as simple as it seemed.
