Waking up with you

The two lovebirds ended up talking the whole night.

Shao Yan was too tired from all the meetings that she had been having for the whole day. She was slouching down the long sofa by the lounge area, while listening to Li Xiqing telling her about his day in the university.

She had taken her shoes off, and put both legs up and crossed them on top of the sofa as she leaned back in comfort.

"... and so, our secretary was dumbfounded, how come all the food was missing so fast?"

"Uh huh. And then?"

"So Michael, my roommate at the time, suddenly stood up and yelled out 'Yeah! I took them, so what?' very loudly."

"Uh huh."

"Apparently, he had been trying to catch up on the studies, but he was too embarrassed to ask for help. So, he had been missing every night, hiding in the laundry room, and reading all those books while everyone was asleep."

"Hmm."
