62: Chapter 62 Unexplained Feelings

The next day, the morning sunlight spilled through the window and onto the bed.

Lin Yi slowly opened his eyes.

He was completely sober by now.

It seems that after the physical fitness level enhancement, his metabolic rate had increased significantly.

Only one night had passed, and the vast amount of alcohol he had consumed had already vanished into thin air.

Lin Yi rubbed his eyes and was just about to get up.

But he felt something pressing down on him.

Lin Yi squinted to look.

The next second, his eyes widened instantly!

All sleepiness vanished!

He was wide awake!

He saw one of Su Ming's fair, bare legs resting on Lin Yi, and her arms were tightly wrapped around his body.

Because she hadn't been sleeping peacefully, Su Ming's clothes had ridden up slightly, revealing her fair side waist.

A perfect hourglass figure.

A slender waist, wide hips, and a perky bottom.

This waist-to-hip ratio... it's just too perfect...

Lin Yi swallowed subconsciously.

How did Su Ming end up sleeping with him? Could it be that last night...

That shouldn't be...

How did he have absolutely no memory of it?

Lin Yi rubbed his head, trying hard to recall.

But he couldn't remember when Su Ming had come to sleep here.

However, seeing that their clothes were intact, nothing should have happened.

Lin Yi steadied himself, trying his best not to make any movements that would wake Su Ming.

He silently prayed that Su Ming would hurry up and roll over off him so he could sneak back to the sofa in the living room.

Otherwise, it would be too awkward once Su Ming woke up...

She might even mistake him for a pervert...

Accusing him of taking advantage of her while she was drunk...

Wait! That's not right...

How did he become the pervert?

Isn't this his room?

That's right! If anyone was a pervert, it was her!

Anyway, he was drunk last night too, and knew nothing.

Thinking of this, Lin Yi felt a bit more confident.

He summoned his courage and lifted his head to look at the school beauty sleeping soundly on his chest.

Su Ming's face was like a fine piece of art, every line beautiful and just right.

Her thick, slightly curled eyelashes were like two small fans, gently covering her closed eyes and trembling slightly with her breathing.

Her nose was petite and high-bridged, casting a faint shadow in the morning light.

Her lips were slightly parted, like delicate petals, pink and soft, making one want to touch them.

A few strands of hair fell softly onto Su Ming's delicate face, making her look even more lazy and gentle.

Like an obedient, clingy kitten.

Lin Yi stared blankly at Su Ming, lost in thought for a moment.

No wonder she was the school beauty.

Indeed... so beautiful...

For all these years, this was the first time Lin Yi had slept with a girl.

And he hadn't expected it to be such a stunning, top-tier beauty.

Lin Yi's heart began to race.

After all, he was at a hot-blooded age.

Looking at Su Ming from such a close distance, it was hard not to have any reaction.

Lin Yi could even feel himself hearing the "thump-thump" of his own heartbeat.

...

At this moment, Su Ming hugged Lin Yi, stretched, and slowly opened her eyes.

"It's dawn..."

"Hmm? Where is this?"

"What is this... why is it so warm..."

"Why is there..."

"...someone next to me?"

Su Ming's round eyes widened instantly.

"Lin Yi!"

"How did you..."

"Oh no, I drank too much yesterday... I blacked out..."

In Su Ming's last memory, she only remembered waking up once in the middle of the night and looking for a bed.

She had absolutely no impression of what happened afterwards.

Su Ming hurriedly sat up and subconsciously lifted the blanket to check herself.

"Don't worry, I drank too much last night as well, nothing happened between us."

Lin Yi comforted her.

Su Ming's little face turned bright red instantly.

"What do you mean don't worry... I don't need to worry... I wasn't worried at all, okay..."

After all, they were both people about to get engaged.

Thinking of this, Su Ming suddenly felt a bit guilty.

If Li Runze found out that she had slept in the same bed as Lin Yi last night, would he be furious?

Based on Su Ming's understanding of Li Runze, she feared that even if she explained that nothing had happened between her and Lin Yi, Li Runze wouldn't believe her.

Furthermore, if word of this got out, people would probably gossip behind their backs, saying Lin Yi had given the young master of the Li family a green hat.

When that time came, Li Runze might even be angry enough to cancel the engagement directly.

Thinking of this consequence, Su Ming felt a burst of relief, followed by nervousness.

Her family's company was currently in urgent need of a large sum of funds, and only Li Runze was willing to lend a helping hand.

If the engagement were cancelled... then her family's company would be finished!

Thinking of her father Su Yue's weathered face, Su Ming felt an inexplicable heartache.

"It's all my fault for being incompetent..."

"Relying on my family for everything since I was little."

"If only I were as capable as Lin Yi."

Su Ming looked at the man in front of her, and suddenly felt a bit more favorably towards him.

They had slept together for the whole night, yet nothing had happened.

Lin Yi's behavior could be described as having self-control.

Such a gentleman made one naturally feel at ease with him.

Su Ming: Favorability +5 points

Current Favorability: 40 points

Hearing the system prompt, Lin Yi nodded with satisfaction.

This favorability had been cultivated enough, and now he needed to find an opportunity for consumption cashback.

Sigh, giving gifts to girls is really troublesome.

He wanted to give something expensive, but didn't know what to give.

If only he could just give money directly...

Giving money is the most hassle-free.

Sigh, no... that's too simple and crude... If he just gave money right away, she might think he was a lunatic...

Lin Yi thought to himself.

"Lin Yi... um... I'm going back to school now!"

"Thank you for your hospitality yesterday."

Su Ming blushed and hurriedly ran out of Lin Yi's bedroom.

She didn't know why, but Su Ming felt that whenever she saw Lin Yi now, there was an inexplicable feeling lurking in her heart.

This was not a good sign.

She was about to get engaged, and playing for a whole day yesterday was crazy enough.

She needed to settle down from now on; she had to accept the reality she was meant to accept...

Su Ming dashed downstairs, ran outside the villa, and hailed a taxi back to school.

While running downstairs, her hurried footsteps woke up Yang Xiaoli, who was sleeping in the room near the staircase.

Yang Xiaoli rubbed her eyes and opened the door, just in time to see Su Ming running down from the master bedroom on the third floor.

"Hmm? Didn't I help her to the guest room to sleep yesterday?"

"How did she come down from the third-floor master bedroom?"

Yang Xiaoli curiously looked in the direction Su Ming had left.

She happened to see that the sofa in the living room on the first floor was empty.

Lin Yi, who should have been sleeping on the sofa, was also nowhere to be seen.

Only the quilt she had covered him with the night before, fearing he might catch a cold, was left behind.

Just at this moment, Lin Yi, wearing slippers, came walking down from the third floor, patter-patter.

As he walked, he was also adjusting the buttons on his shirt.

When he reached the second floor, seeing Yang Xiaoli looking around, Lin Yi politely greeted her.

"Morning, you're up so early?"

Yang Xiaoli looked in surprise at Lin Yi buttoning his shirt, and combined with the image of Su Ming just running down in a hurry...

"Oh my god! You... you two last night..."
