The sun set very quickly.

The last rays of sunlight disappeared over the sea, and the sky grew completely dark.

The evening breeze was cool.

The next moment, Lu Yang felt a weight and warmth on his cool shoulder.

He turned his head and saw Li Xixue's head tilted on his shoulder, her eyes closed, her breathing even, and her eyelashes trembling slightly.

She was already asleep.

Her hand had somehow ended up on Lu Yang's forearm, her five fingers loosely clenched but not clenched either.

Lu Yang shifted his shoulders, trying to adjust the angle, but didn't wake her.

He sat there, letting Li Xixue lean against him.

At dusk, nothing could be seen on the sea except for the orange glow of the streetlights.

At this moment, Li Xixue's body suddenly trembled, as if she had been chilled by the wind.

Her eyelids finally twitched, and then slowly opened.

My vision blurred for a few seconds.

She saw Lu Yang's chin.

Very close.

Li Xixue froze for two seconds, then jumped up instantly as if she had been electrocuted.

"I……"

"woke up?"

Lu Yang spoke calmly, as if nothing had happened.

Li Xixue immediately sat up straight.

She rubbed the corner of her eye with the back of her hand and glanced around casually.

It was already dark.

The person is gone too.

Only the two of them remained, sitting on the beach.

"What time is it?"

"It's almost eight o'clock."

Li Xixue pursed her lips.

I slept for more than an hour without even realizing it?

Why didn't you call me?

"Why did I call you? You were sleeping soundly, like a pig."

"I……"

Li Xixue wanted to refute, but found herself speechless.

She was indeed sleeping very soundly.

She couldn't remember the last time she slept this soundly.

but……

He actually said he was like a pig!

You're the pig, your whole family are pigs!

"Let's go eat."

Lu Yang stood up, patted the sand off his pants, and then reached out to pull her.

Li Xixue stared at the hand for a moment, then reached out and let him pull her up.

Back to the hotel.

The two took the elevator upstairs and didn't talk much along the way.

Upon arriving at the door, I swiped my card to open it.

"Go take a shower first."

After saying that, she walked straight to the bathroom.

After playing all day, I felt sticky and uncomfortable all over.

Lu Yang sat on the sofa in the hall and let out a long sigh.

tired.

It's really tiring.

Moreover, it was still daylight when I went out, so I didn't look carefully.

Now that the lights are on, more details around the room are revealed.

A bottle of red wine and two wine glasses were placed on the table in the hall.

There were several unlit scented candles on the cabinet next to the sofa.

The round bed in the bedroom was covered with rose petals, and the quilt was folded into a heart shape.

The most outrageous thing is...

Lu Yang opened the bedside table and found it contained all sorts of props, such as handcuffs and whips...

That kid Wang Ping...

Lu Yang had to complain a bit.

Just then, his phone rang.

It's Wang Hao.

"Old Yang! Where are you? Come down for dinner! There's a seafood buffet downstairs! And it's free!"

Lu Yang replied, "I've already eaten."

"You're lying. You just came back from the beach, didn't you? I saw you. You were walking with your sister-in-law."

"..."

Wang Hao chuckled twice. "Old Yang, I just happened to be passing by. Your wife's figure...tsk tsk tsk..."

"If you tsk again, I'll throw you into the sea."

Lu Yang corrected him again: "Also, she's not your sister-in-law."

Although the two are currently married, they will have to divorce once the cooling-off period for divorce expires.

"But she's already confirmed her relationship with you."

Wang Hao quickly changed the subject, "Moreover, while you were away today, Yuan Xiangrong and his group spent a long time trying to find a room, but they still couldn't find one. I heard they took a taxi for dozens of kilometers to some kind of budget hotel."

"And also, after you left, Wang Ziying cried her eyes out for some reason."

"Haha, they're almost coming to blows now, they'll probably call it a day and go home tomorrow."

Lu Yang hummed in response, without any further reaction.

This has nothing to do with him.

He doesn't intend to get involved.

And judging by the time, it's about time to go back.

at the same time.

The sound of water from the bathroom stopped.

The door opened, and hot air rushed out.

Li Xixue came out wrapped in a white bathrobe, her hair wrapped in a towel, her face flushed from the steam.

She glanced at the bed covered with flower petals and heart-patterned blankets, her pupils contracted slightly, and then she took a deep breath.

Forget it.

She pretended not to see: "Go wash up."

Lu Yang hummed in agreement, walked into the bathroom, and drew the curtain.

When he finished showering and came out, Li Xixue was already wearing a black silk nightgown, sitting on the bed, leaning against the headboard, looking at her phone.

Lu Yang glanced at the flower petals on the bed: "You didn't clean them up?"

"You're clear."

"You're nearby."

"You have long legs."

Lu Yang: "..."

What is the reason for this?

"Shall we go down for dinner?"

Lu Yang rubbed his rumbling stomach; he hadn't eaten all day and was a little hungry.

"I don't want to move."

Li Xixue leaned against the headboard and tapped her phone.

"Is that what you call room service?"

"Um."

Lu Yang picked up the phone on the table and pressed room service.

He ordered several dishes and added a dessert.

While waiting for their food, the two sat down separately.

Lu Yang was scrolling through his phone, while Li Xixue was going through the coordination documents she hadn't finished reading during the day.

Quiet, but not awkward.

Compared to before, the tension between the two had eased considerably.

Now, even though she shares a bed with Lu Yang, she seems perfectly at ease.

Like an old couple who have become numb.

Ding Dong!

Soon, the doorbell rang.

Lu Yang went to open the door, and a food cart was pushed in, with six or seven dishes on it.

There's also a bottle... I don't know what brand of foreign liquor it is.

Wait, when did I order alcohol?

The waiter explained with a smile, "Sir, this bottle of wine was specially ordered by Mr. Wang, who said he wished you both a pleasant evening."

A pleasant evening.

Mr. Wang?

Lu Yang was stunned.

Without a doubt, it must have been Wang Ping's doing.

Li Xixue got out of bed, walked barefoot to the table and sat down.

The black silk nightgown reflected light slightly, and the shoulder straps were so thin they looked like two noodles, dangling precariously from her shoulders.

She glanced at the dishes on the table, then at the bottle of foreign liquor.

"Who sent it?"

"Wang Ping."

"Is he sick?"

"They meant well."

"..."

They finished eating the food.

But the only thing they dared not touch was the alcohol.

After all, the reason they ended up in this relationship was because of alcohol.

After finishing the meal.

The two of them went straight to bed.

I guess it's because I played all day and was so tired that I didn't care about anything else.

Lu Yang glanced at the sofa, then at the bed, and then at Li Xixue lying on the bed.

"Going back tomorrow?"

"Um."

"So today..."

"Come and sleep here."

Li Xixue didn't even look up, and just said that coldly.

Lu Yang was stunned for a moment.

Then he walked to the other side of the bed, lifted the corner of the blanket, and lay down.

This time, there's no pillow to serve as a dividing line.

The two stood back to back.

The lights are off.

"Good night."

Lu Yang said.

She remained silent for a few seconds.

"Um."
