Tan Yun was in a daze as he carried Fang Zixi to the bed. Then, he lost consciousness and collapsed on the bed, pinning her beneath him.
Tan Yun fell onto the bed...
The moonlight quietly faded away.
In the morning, a ray of sunlight passed through the ancient-style window, shining down on Fang Zixi.
In the morning, a ray of sunlight streamed through the ancient wooden window, shining on Fang Zixi's face. Her long eyelashes fluttered slightly, clearly indicating that she was waking up.
As expected, moments later, Fang Zixi, lying on her back, gradually opened her eyes.
"Why does my head feel so dizzy?" Fang Zixi was puzzled when her peripheral vision caught sight of a head resting on her chest.
Fang Zixi slightly lifted her head to look, and suddenly, her beautiful eyes widened. Her delicate face flushed with a rosy hue, feeling an intense heat on her cheeks.
She realized that Tan Yun was lying on top of her, and moreover!
Moreover, Tan Yun's hands were resting on her body.
In his sleep, Tan Yun unconsciously squeezed gently with his right hand, feeling a strange and wonderful sensation between his fingers.
Fang Zixi, who had never been treated this way by a man, had never even held hands before. Being as pure and innocent as she was, her mind went blank at that moment, and a scream escaped her subconscious!
A scream filled with panic and anxiety reached Tan Yun's ears, causing him to snap his eyes open.
When he realized he was lying on Fang Zixi, he was also dumbfounded!
For a full three breaths, Tan Yun was stunned. Then he "whooshed!" up from the bed and landed in front of it, hurriedly saying, "Zixi, I'm sorry, it was unintentional."
"I remember now, last night you got drunk and passed out in the lobby on the first floor. I wanted you to sleep on the bed, so I carried you upstairs."
"I don't remember anything after that."
"Zixi, don't panic. Look, we are both properly dressed, so that proves nothing happened."
Seeing Tan Yun's nervous appearance, Fang Zixi gradually calmed down and realized that she was indeed still innocent.
However, she still felt flushed and didn't dare to look Tan Yun in the eye. Just thinking about Tan Yun being on top of her and where his right hand was made her heart race.
Was she angry?
To be honest, at the moment she woke up, she felt a mix of embarrassment and anger, but she had suspected that Tan Yun might have had ulterior motives when he saw her drunk, hence her anger.
But now it seemed that she had misunderstood him.
"Tan Yun, you don’t need to blame yourself." Fang Zixi took a deep breath and pretended to be nonchalant, "I don’t blame you."
"Thank you," Tan Yun said apologetically, "but no matter what, you are a lady, and I did indeed offend you."
"Don’t mention it!" Fang Zixi feigned anger, "This matter must not be told to anyone, and you must not bring it up again in the future; otherwise, I will truly be angry."
"Alright, alright, I will do as you say," Tan Yun replied awkwardly.
After that, the two fell into silence for a long time.
"Tan Yun, did you come to find me for something?"
"Zixi, I want to discuss something with you."
Tan Yun and Fang Zixi spoke almost simultaneously.
Fang Zixi, still shy, couldn't help but smile, "Go ahead."
"Um." Tan Yun nodded.
Perhaps due to what happened last night, the two felt that their relationship had gotten a little closer.
Tan Yun said, "Zixi, I came back this time to have you activate the Star Domain Time-Space Great Formation."
Fang Zixi frowned slightly and thought for a moment, "Sure, during the years you weren't here, my palace has mined quite a few Supreme Ancestor Stones."
Upon hearing this, Tan Yun felt very touched that Fang Zixi was willing to expend valuable Supreme Ancestor Stones for him.
"Zixi, you don’t need to use your Ancestor Stones," Tan Yun said, "I currently have over five hundred trillion."
"What? You have so much?" Fang Zixi was initially surprised, but then as if she thought of something, her voice carried a hint of sourness, "Well, who are you now?"
"You are the dignified marquis of divine valor of the Western Continent Ancestral Dynasty and the fiancée of the seventh princess. No wonder you have so many Supreme Ancestor Stones."
