Chapter 111 A Unique Flavor

Zheng Yufei seemed to show no signs of waking up, she just sighed contentedly, startling me into holding my breath for a moment. After a while, feeling Zheng Yufei's breathing become steady again, I finally relaxed.

I gently removed Zheng Yufei's arm and stealthily slid out from her embrace. Zheng Yufei just frowned slightly, then turned over and continued to sleep.

Upon seeing this, I fully relaxed and plopped down onto the sofa nearby. Gazing into the pitch-black night outside, I let out a long sigh.

In the darkness, I lit a cigarette. The glow of the burning tip shone particularly bright against the blackness, just like Zheng Yufei, who had brought a turn in my life when it was at its bleakest.

I wasn't in a hurry to smoke, instead I just quietly watched it burn until it went out. Only then did I slowly stand up and walk out of the room.
