She slept deeply, not waking until the sun was high in the sky. Warm sunlight mischieviously snuck through the gaps in the curtains, lightly caressing her cheek.
Chenxing lazily opened her eyes. A hangover reminded her of last night's drinking spree, a mild throbbing in her head.
As she shifted her body, she felt an arm loosely draped across her waist.
She turned her head abruptly and the sight of Gu Shaocheng's peaceful sleeping face invaded her vision. Yes, it was him. He was sound asleep, his brows slightly knitted, submerged deeper in his dreams than she was.
In that moment, her heartbeat surged wildly.
But after taking in the room's decor, the heart that had skyrocketed plunged rapidly.
This was a bedroom in the Imperial Palace community, not the one in the Gu Family's home!
