The morning sun poured through the window, dappling the bed.
Lu Xiaoran opened her eyes to find herself nestled in the crook of Zhao Dachuan’s arm. Even beneath the covers, she could feel the delicate, intimate friction between their skin. In an instant, memories of the wild night she and Zhao Dachuan had shared flooded back, and her pretty face flushed crimson. Although the effects of the aphrodisiac had been purged by Zhao Dachuan’s treatment, the intensity of their late-night indulgence had been entirely of her own choosing.

Zhao Dachuan reached out to touch her forehead. Finding the fever gone, he smiled and said, "Excellent! You aren't burning up like yesterday. The Yin-Yang Harmony Technique truly is effective!"
"It is not! I'm still uncomfortable, okay?" Lu Xiaoran pouted, clinging to him.
