Chapter 60: Chapter 60 Good Morning
Translator: 549690339
Shen MO had a restless night.
Every time he closed his eyes, the image of Bai Youwei, shrouded in gloom and vulnerability, haunted him. She sat silent in the shadows, blending into the darkness, or perhaps becoming the darkness itself. A hint of wickedness in her demeanor, yet she was not one you could easily hate.
This was always the case— Ignored and pitied; Intended to help, but irked by her infuriatingly stubborn demeanor.
Shen MO had carried out many tasks, complex, dangerous, urgent, but none had given him such a headache as this one.
He was pretty annoyed.
It was five in the morning. The daylight was just breaking when Shen MO awoke.
He got up and went to Bai Youwei’s room.
He had left hastily the night before, mainly to put a stop to her sullen behavior. But leaving her alone in the room left him uneasy, given her volatile temper, he was worried she might stir up some new trouble either for him or for herself.
He lightly twisted the doorknob, finding it unlocked.
As Shen MO pushed the door open, in the dim light, Bai Youwei lay on the bed with her eyes closed.
Shen MO breathed a sigh of relief.
He went over and bent down to look at her. Sleeping, she looked unusually docile, eyelashes slightly upturned, lips pinkish, small face with baby fat, innocent and lovely. Combined with her skin far paler than the average person’s, she looked extremely fragile and endearing.
Without a shadow of a doubt, her appearance was utterly deceptive. Forgetting her last night’s aggressive and stubborn behavior, he found himself watching her.
She was deeply asleep, like a child, hugging a fluffy bunny in her arms, its fur rumpled.
Shen MO imagined that she probably vented her frustrations on the bunny after he left the previous night. The thought brought a smile to his face, finding the scene rather adorable.
Strange and muddled thoughts passed through his mind…
Compelled to, he lightly brushed away her hair, to see if the strangulation mark on her neck had faded.
As her hair swept across her cheek, the girl’s lashes fluttered slightly.
A second later, she opened her eyes and silently watched him.
With eyes calm and tranquil, filled with a mix of drowsy disorientation.
Shen MO withdrew his hand, unsure of what to say to her. After a slight pause he asked, “Need to use the restroom?”
Although he asked out of concern, Bai Youwei scoffed and laughed, “You woke me up at five in the morning just to remind me to pee?”
Shen Mo: ‘
“Nuts,” Bai Youwei rolled her eyes, laying back to continue her sleep, exuding an aura of dislike for early mornings.
Shen MO was silent for a while, saying, “I will come back at five-thirty.”
Bai Youwei grabbed the stuffed bunny and hurled it at his face!
—Indeed, she couldn’t have hit him. After all, the difference in strength was far too significant, so it was unlikely she could ever land a hit.
Catching the bunny, Shen MO exited the dorm room and stood at the door, smiling quietly. Somehow, his mood brightened up.
Is she right? Am I nuts? He touched his nose, muttering to himself.
The rising warm sun cast a glowing layer on the handsome man’s face, gradually warming up and making the whole person relaxed. Ignoring the terrible situation for the moment, it felt like a pleasant morning.
At the end of the corridor under the eaves, there was a water basin. Shen MO turned on the tap and the cool water poured, he freshened himself with the cold water.
Suddenly, there was a sound from behind him.
Immediately following, Tan Xiao’s hysterical yell came— “Damn it!!!”
Brushing the water from his face, Shen MO turned his head in confusion.
He watched Tan Xiao rush out of the room, then back into the Monkey’s sleeping chamber where another torrent of curses echoed: “He ran off! That coward!! He stole our clay and ran off!!!”
