In her semi-conscious state, Anran felt the warmth leave her and heard some slight rustling that, although not loud, awakened her.
She opened her eyes slightly to see that the light in the room was still very dim. Only a fraction of morning light shone through the curtains, though it wasn’t illuminating enough.
Turning her head slowly, she saw that Su Yicheng had gotten out of bed and was standing in front of the closet as he changed into his sportswear. Then, he turned his head, and his eyes locked with Anran’s sleepy eyes. He froze, then burst out laughing. “Did I wake you up?”
Seeing that she didn’t answer, Su Yicheng approached her, stooped down in front of the bed, then felt her forehead. After confirming that she didn’t have a fever, he stared into her eyes as he stroked her face and asked with a faint smile, “What’s wrong? Not feeling well?”
Anran looked at him steadily and shook her head. She put her hands on his palms and was overcome by a strange sensation. Habit really was a frightening thing. It hadn’t even been that long since they met, yet she has already grown used to his warmth and the feeling of his touch. She has grown accustomed to everything this man has given her.
Su Yicheng smiled, lowered his head to plant a gentle kiss on her forehead, then said, “It’s still early. Sleep for a little while longer.”
“Where are you going?” Anran stammered and stared straight at him.
Su Yicheng chuckled as he stood up, then said, “I’m going for a morning run. You should sleep for a little while longer.” He was accustomed to doing morning exercises with his grandfather every day in the compound. This habit of his had been ingrained in him since childhood, and even though he no longer lived in the compound, it seemed that getting up early and doing morning exercises had become an essential part of his life.
Anran nodded and watched him turn around to head out. Lying down on the bed again without his embrace or warmth, Anran discovered that it was difficult to fall asleep again.
She lay in bed for half an hour with her eyes wide open. The morning light outside the window shone brighter, and the initially dim room gradually began to light up as the sun illuminated it. Anran flipped her body over and hopped out of bed. She fell asleep without taking a shower yesterday. Although Su Yicheng used the hot towel to help her clean her body, she still felt a little ill at ease. She took out her change of clothes from the closet and headed straight into the bathroom.
It was still only 6:30 after Anran finished taking a shower, but it was already bright outside. Anran pushed away the curtains, opened the windows, and stood on the balcony with her eyes closed to feel the morning breeze on her face. She felt pampered like this and felt her body and mind freshened as if she could forget about all her sorrows.
She continued standing with her eyes closed, and her heart was at peace as she felt a deep sense of tranquility inside. That revitalizing feeling made her feel relaxed and at ease, and it gave her peace of mind.
When Su Yicheng returned, he saw that Anran was busy in the kitchen with a spatula in her hand and appeared to be frying something in the pan. Two pieces of toast were in the toaster on the side, and there was already a plate placed on the marble counter with a few slices of slightly burnt toast on it.
As he watched her from behind, she accidentally burned herself and started rubbing herself to soothe the pain. Su Yicheng stared at her dazedly and unconsciously leaned toward the entrance of the kitchen as the corners of his mouth curled up in a smile.
Anran finally took the crispy bacon out of the pan and placed it onto the plate, which already had fried eggs placed on it. Anran nodded with satisfaction, but as soon as she turned around to bring the breakfast to the table, she came face to face with Su Yicheng’s smug face. “Y-you, when did you come in?” He came in like a ghost! She hadn’t noticed him at all!

Su Yicheng chuckled as he approached her, then he glanced at the breakfast in her hands and broke into a huge grin. “It looks delicious.” Then, he stretched out his hands without caring if it was hot and placed a piece of bacon into his mouth as he said, “It’s delicious.”
Anran stared blankly at his slightly childish moves and couldn’t react for a moment. Then, she finally snapped back to her senses and stammered, “You… didn’t wash your hands.”
At first, Su Yicheng was caught off guard for a moment. Then he couldn’t help but feel amused by her innocent earnestness. With his thoughts on her, he swooped down to brush his oily lips against her half-open mouth, then used his tongue to pry open her teeth and started sticking his tongue into her mouth.
Anran froze and passively allowed him to kiss her. His mouth had the faint taste of bacon, and she could smell the sweat from his body after exercising. All of this just seemed so surreal to her.
It took a while for Su Yicheng to let go of her, and his smile widened when he saw her blushing profusely from the kiss. He lowered his head and pecked her on the mouth several times before he finally said, “I’ll go take a shower first. “Then, he turned around and went into the master bedroom.
Anran stood there with a stupefied expression on her face as she held the plate. It took her a while to finally snap back to her senses. By that time, Su Yicheng had already entered the bedroom, took his changes of clothes, and headed into the bathroom. She stared at the plate in her hands, and when she thought back to that passionate kiss again, her cheeks flushed, and she couldn’t help but break out into a dazzling smile.
By the time Su Yicheng finished taking a shower and came out again, Anran had already set breakfast on the counter and had poured a glass of milk for him.
Su Yicheng sat down on the high chair and looked at the plate in front of him. There was a poached egg, three slices of bacon, two slices of slightly burnt toast, and a glass of warm milk. Then, from the corner of his eyes, he saw that she only had poached eggs and toast on her plate. There was no bacon on her plate. He frowned slightly, then asked, “You gave me all the bacon?”
“I-I want to lose weight,” Anran said as she lowered her head to bite into the toast, and then drank some of the milk.
His frown deepened, and his face grew stern and serious. “You’re already thin enough as it is.” Then, he took out all three slices of bacon from his own plate and placed all of them onto Anran’s plate.
Anran stared at the plate full of bacon in front of him, then looked at him again and secretly scolded him inside. “Fool, I gave it to you because you like eating it!”
Seeing her remain motionless, Su Yicheng bit into the toast in one large bite, then urged her, “Hurry up and finish eating, then I’ll take you somewhere.”
“G-go where?” Anran asked, then added, as if she had suddenly just thought of it, “Uh, I have to go to work.”
Su Yicheng patted her head in amusement, then said, “Silly thing, it’s Saturday today. What work could you possibly have on a Saturday?”
In her semi-conscious state, Anran felt the warmth leave her and heard some slight rustling that, although not loud, awakened her.
She opened her eyes slightly to see that the light in the room was still very dim. Only a fraction of morning light shone through the curtains, though it wasn’t illuminating enough.
