Qiao'er Qin had been forcing herself to stay awake just to wait for Youting Zhao to come out. Now that she had finally waited for him, drowsiness gradually swept over her.
Youting Zhao didn't dare to move at first. It wasn't until he gradually noticed that Qiao'er Qin's breathing had become calm that he began to breathe boldly and feel at ease.
Looking at Qiao'er Qin's sleeping face, Youting Zhao couldn't fall asleep. As soon as he closed his eyes, he could feel Qiao'er Qin in his arms. Her presence was just too strong.
Youting Zhao lay there with his eyes wide open, without a trace of drowsiness. He even started to wonder how many eyelashes Qiao'er Qin had.
It wasn't until dawn was approaching that he finally felt sleepy and drifted off to sleep.
Qiao'er Qin suddenly opened her eyes and was shocked to find herself lying in Youting Zhao's arms, with his arm still around her.
Her eyes widened in surprise. She had no idea what had happened last night, and even her clothes had been changed.
She started to rack her brains to recall last night. She thought something might have happened between them. But no matter how hard she tried, her memory only went back to the time when they were drinking in the izakaya last night.
She was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to crawl into. She thought she had a good tolerance for alcohol, but she had no idea if she had made a fool of herself last night.
Looking at Youting Zhao's sleeping face, she was momentarily captivated by his slumbering appearance. An image of Youting Zhao gradually took shape in her mind.
Suddenly, she thought it would be too embarrassing if Youting Zhao woke up in this situation. So she gently moved his arm off her body and tried to get out of the bed quietly, pretending that nothing had happened.
Just as Qiao'er Qin moved his arm away and tiptoed out of the bed, she suddenly heard a lazy voice from behind: "Aren't you going to take responsibility for me?"
Qiao'er Qin stiffly turned her head and saw Youting Zhao stretching his arms, looking at her sleepily. His clothes were hanging loosely on his body, and his muscles were faintly visible.
Qiao'er Qin said shyly, "You... You... Fix your clothes first!"
Youting Zhao looked down at his clothes and then pretended to be very sad. "That's not what you said last night. You even praised my good figure last night. Have you forgotten?"
Hearing this, Qiao'er Qin opened her mouth in surprise. Although she knew Youting Zhao had a good figure, she didn't think she would say it out loud.
She thought about it carefully and vaguely remembered that she might have said something like that last night. She couldn't wait to leave this place.
She stammered, "What happened last night?"
"Have you forgotten? Oh, I'm so heart - broken. You did everything last night, and now you're denying it this morning." Although Youting Zhao said this, he was already laughing inside.
He thought that Qiao'er Qin would definitely not remember what she had done last night when she woke up this morning. As expected, it seemed that he had successfully deceived her.
Hearing this, Qiao'er Qin opened her eyes blankly. She had no memory of what she had done last night, but she still firmly said, "I'll take responsibility for you!"
At this moment, Youting Zhao couldn't hold it in anymore and burst out laughing.
Seeing Youting Zhao like this, Qiao'er Qin realized that she had been deceived. She said angrily, "Humph! I knew you were lying to me!"
Youting Zhao laughed for a long time before slowly stopping. Then he said, "I remember what you just said. You said you would take responsibility for me. Don't forget."
Qiao'er Qin was so ashamed and angry at this moment. "I won't talk to you anymore. I'm going back. I don't know if the two kids are awake."
Youting Zhao said leisurely, "Look at what time it is."
Qiao'er Qin looked at the watch and found that it was almost one o'clock in the afternoon. She wailed, "Oh no, what if they wake up and can't find us?"
Youting Zhao sat up and stretched. "Don't worry. I got up early to check on them. I took them for breakfast and sent them to the amusement park. I didn't expect that when I came back, someone was still sleeping soundly in bed."
Qiao'er Qin coughed awkwardly.
Then Youting Zhao patted the space beside him. "Come and lie with me for a while."
"I... I'd better go take a shower." Qiao'er Qin fled to the bathroom like a scared rabbit.
Youting Zhao looked at Qiao'er Qin's flustered back and couldn't help laughing.
After they both got dressed, they went out to pick up the two kids. Then they started their afternoon itinerary in Japan.
They went to the zoo in Nara this afternoon. The weather was very fine, and the animals were all very cute. The two kids had a great time playing with the animals.
The afternoon passed quickly. They soon got on the cruise ship again and started their journey back.
At night, Qiao'er Qin couldn't fall asleep no matter how hard she tried. Because the moment she lay on the bed, she suddenly remembered what she had done last night.
Vaguely, she remembered that she was also in bed last night, and she had said such things to Youting Zhao. She had even asked Youting Zhao why he hadn't told her that he wanted to sleep with her that day.
Thinking of this, Qiao'er Qin wished she could cover her head with the quilt and pretend to be an ostrich.
But no matter how much Qiao'er Qin regretted, what had happened couldn't be changed. She had said all the things she should and shouldn't have said.
No wonder Youting Zhao had looked at her so ambiguously when they entered the room tonight. He must have remembered what she had said last night.
She couldn't help but pick up her phone and send a text message to Youting Zhao: Can you forget what I said last night?
Youting Zhao was lying in bed playing with his phone. The moment he received the text message, he burst out laughing. Thinking of Qiao'er Qin in the next room, holding her phone and looking distressed, he thought she was so cute.
After laughing enough, he replied: It depends on your performance. If you behave well, I'll try to forget.
The two of them started sending text messages to each other through the door. The moment they sent a message, they were looking forward to receiving a reply. For the first time, neither of them had the heart to interrupt this conversation.
