Admitting It

After breakfast was settled, Li Xueyue was ushered back into her room where she was supposed to remain bedridden.

Playing with the pages of her geography book, she sighed, twirling the quill in her pen in utter boredom. She was tired of studying all day; there was only so much she could learn about the territories surrounding Wuyi and the routes leading to Hanjian.

"Studious as always," a lazy voice commented from her door. 

Her head snapped in that direction, her eyes widening in disbelief when she saw his large frame leaning against the door. 

"What are you doing here? Who keeps on letting you into my room?" Li Xueyue asked, even though she was grateful for his company. Though, she couldn't let him know that, else his massive ego would be stoked.

"As warm as ever, Sunshine." Yu Zhen snorted. 

"I'd be a lot nicer if you made appointments instead of coming as you please."
