She blinked and lightly slapped her own cheek. "Was I… expecting him to?" she muttered to herself. Shaking her head, she climbed into bed and soon fell asleep.
The next morning, when Gu Jin woke up and stepped outside her room, she paused at the doorway.
A strange scene greeted her.
Mimi, the ghost beast, was standing in front of the couch with narrowed eyes, glaring fiercely at Long Yifan.
Long Yifan, on the other hand, looked completely relaxed. He was lying back on the couch, one leg crossed over the other, eating grapes like he was some lazy prince.
But Gu Jin's eyes didn't stay on his face for long.
His shirt was open at the top, just enough for her to see part of his chest. The curve of his muscles peeked through, and even his strong pec were clearly visible beneath the loose white sleeves.
Gu Jin's throat suddenly felt dry.
'Why is it so hot in here?' she thought, trying not to look. But her eyes betrayed her and wandered back to the open buttons again.
