Shen Xi slowly opened her eyes as the early morning light filtered into her warm little room. Before she could get up, she heard a voice she had not heard in a long time.

"Morning, Xixi!" Guan Lei appeared at Shen Xi's bedside with a big smile.

Dazed, Shen Xi wondered whether she imagined things. Hadn't Guan Lei returned to the dormitory? How was he here now?

Shen Xi patted Guan Lei's face. It was smooth and soft, radiating a scorching heat.

The sudden temperature change sobered Shen Xi, and she quickly retracted her hand. However, Guan Lei stopped her, catching her hand before it could retreat. "Do you like how my face feels? You can touch it as much as you'd like, you know? I don't mind," he said, a cheeky smile on his lips.

Guan Lei's words made him sound like a libertine man. Shen Xi yanked free and pushed Guan Lei away.
