"Cold..."
His voice echoed in the void. He didn't know where he was, but he was there. There... he existed.
Suddenly, warmth crawled on his face and chest. Weight was being put on him, but it was barely crushing him. It was as if the person was wary of hurting him under his body. Hot air blew on Xu Rouguang's face as he forced his eyes to flutter open. Before he could make sense of the colors he saw, someone loomed their face on his... lips locking with his.
Xu Rouguang would refuse the intimacy, but he was quick to recognize the owner of those lips and this feeling he got from the other person. It was a presence embedded right in his mind. The coldness that hugged his body was slowly replaced by warmth as the two bodies continued to heat up like water over fire.
