The morning sunlight filtered through the curtains, faint and soft. She drew back the thick drapes and the horizon was washed with a pale dawn light, turning the sky a beautiful shade of pink.
"Dawn light means the weather will be bad," Bai Xiao said, pulling the gauze curtain to shield against it.
"We're very good," Ye Huang had already washed up and came out, wrapping his arms around her waist from behind, slowly tightening his hold. A burning kiss was planted in the nook of her neck.
Bai Xiao laughed, turned around, and boldly wrapped her arms around his neck in response, "We're really good! Very good!"
As the dawn light on the horizon gradually dimmed, the room was bathed in a romantic glow.
...
Lady Ye had ordered the kitchen to prepare many delicious foods, with abalone wings and sea cucumber among them. Bai Xiao was forced to eat a lot.
Ye Huang watched by the side, smiling without a word.
