After Lux went through the stages of confusion, panic and shock for a moment, she finally resisted the urge to scream.
"I...I I...eh???"
The blush on her face suddenly spread to the root of her neck, and her clear eyes seemed to have ripples of light, and the tenderness and joy inside were as bright as the stars.
Chai Anping woke up leisurely when he felt the movement around him. Seeing her appearance, he couldn't help but pinch her face in a funny way: "You talked for so long last night, do you really think it was a dream?"
"ah……"
Lux was speechless. For a moment, she didn't know whether to continue hugging him or to get up quickly. She felt that her face was so hot that she could fry an egg.
Chai Anping saw that it was still very early, and of course he couldn't let the fragrant and soft Lux leave. He put a little more force on his hand around her waist, completely eliminating her inner entanglement.
"Gracie, we can't... Oops, it's time for me to get up!"
Lux said in a disgusting tone.
When Chai Anping heard this, he immediately got into trouble and rushed back early, overcoming most of the "difficulties and dangers" of more than half of the Mithril Mountains. He told the story, and the distressed Lux never mentioned the bed again.
"But why did you come here secretly?" Lux held her face and whispered.
"Don't I really want to see you as soon as possible!"
Chai Anping said confidently.
Emotional girls are as tender as water, and they like to listen to this kind of gossip, let alone Lux, who is experiencing this for the first time and has been separated for more than two months.
Her fingers quietly traced circles on Chai Anping's chest, her long eyelashes drooped, trembling, but her lips were like a peaceful crescent moon.
——After waking up, happiness continues!
However, because the sunlight has gradually entered the room, she is now much more embarrassed than when she was in the dark environment, and Xiaolu's heart is still unable to calm down.
"Are we going to stay in bed all the time?" she asked.
"Well...that's a problem."
Chai Anping stretched his body. After riding so many skyships on the sea and running around on land for several days, he felt lazy all over the bed now, and he had nephrite in his arms, so it was even more...
Don't want to move anymore.
"Will brother-in-law Galen come and chop me?"
"Brother will leave the city before dawn to train soldiers in the camp... Besides, why do you always think that brother will kill you??"
"What about uncle and aunt?"
Chai Anping scratched her nose and did not answer the latter question. After all, anyone who has eaten Galen's great sword knows this question well.
"Father and mother came specially to see you a while ago and went back to Silver City early."
"Then it'll be fine!" Chai Anping said happily.
"...But I have to go to work!" Lux was confused.
"oh?"
Lacus did talk a lot about work last night. Chai Anping knew this girl's enthusiasm for this career, so he sighed in his heart, and it was not good for her to become an obstacle to Lacus.
"To be honest, I really want to see what you look like when you are working. Are you as cute as you are now?"
"oops!"
As soon as he made up his mind, he heard Lux say to herself: "But I don't want to go to work today, huh!"
Others have vacations every month, but she has always stayed at her job. Taking a day off from time to time must not be a problem!
"Um??"
Lux hugged Chai Anping's neck affectionately, and shyly but firmly said in Chai Anping's ear: "I want to be with you today!"
Chai Anping was immediately moved and wanted to lower his hand a few inches further to heat up the atmosphere.
But he was immediately glared at by Lux, who grabbed his salty hand and put it back in place. Chai Anping closed his eyes. It seemed that for the time being, his area of activity was only his small waist, which felt amazing.
…
"Huh? Didn't Miss Crown Guard come to work today?"
The clerk at the mage registration office asked Ellerbella with the document in his hand.
"Uh... someone from the Crown Guard Office came over this morning and informed her that she was taking leave today."
Ellerbella felt a little strange. After all, Lux had a very good schedule, and after announcing her relationship with Chai Anping in the aristocratic circle, invitations to similar gatherings almost disappeared. It can be said that Lux had nothing to do except work.
Things that require leave.
She suddenly remembered what Lacus had said in the carriage last night. Could it be that Lacus was because Gracie was about to return?
For a moment, her thoughts were confused. How should a person like herself face him?
When she deceived Chai Anping and even wanted to rescue Silas at the cost of his life, it could be said that it was completely intolerable. She bit her lip tightly and letting her be locked up in prison for the rest of her life might be able to calm her heart.
She felt less guilty, but how could she have imagined that she would be like this?
Her fingers were twisted into a ball, and she had a sad look on her face.
The clerk put several documents on her desk and was secretly surprised by the sudden change in the expression of her colleague from clear to cloudy.
…
Lying on the bed, she couldn't bear Chai Anping's probing hands. Lux finally made up her mind to get up. When she got up, she brought a wisp of fragrance with her and pinched Chai Anping's arm.
"goat!"
"Hey--"
Chai Anping looked very proud.
"You go out first, I want to change clothes!"
"Ahem, I'll just close my eyes and it'll be fine."
Chai Anping immediately covered his eyes with his hands.
"no!"
"Then continue to lie down and sleep."
"..."
Lux puffed up her cheeks and her cheeks turned red. She couldn't resist Chai Anping's rogue energy. If she pushed him away a few more times, Chai Anping would twist into a maggot on her bed.
Chai Anping seemed to be covering his eyes tightly, so Lux stuck out her tongue, quickly ran to the cabinet to get some clothes, and prepared to hide in the back to change.
"Oh, I'm tired from lying down. Get up and move around."
Chai Anping followed closely behind, not giving Lux any chance to escape.
Lux's big watery eyes were full of shame and anger, and she wished she could kill Chai Anping with one shot, huh?
Suddenly an idea came to her, and she challenged Chai Anping with a smile on her face: "You want to see it, don't you? Hum... then you should have a good look!"
Dazzling white light suddenly emanated from all over her body, and soon formed a "field of white light". Seeing this, Chai Anping immediately put down his hands in vain, with tears streaming down his face.
Damn Holy Light Priest!
"Ha ha!"
Lux, who had quickly changed her clothes in the blinding white light, reappeared in front of Chai Anping and couldn't stop laughing at his shriveled appearance.
After she finished laughing, she playfully came over and hugged Chai Anping's arm:
"I'll take you to a place where no one is around to wash up first, and then we can sneak out..."
