Luke walked out of the bathroom to see Luca hiding under the blanket like an ostrich.

He could not even see her head.

Luke chuckled and asked, "Isn't it hard to breathe under the blanket?"

It was suffocating.

Luca could hear her heart pounding fast under the blanket. She was nervous, like a child who was about to do something bad. She could not get used to it.

Luke noticed that she was pretending to sleep, so he said, "Don't worry, I won't do anything to you tonight."

They had work to do tomorrow, and Luca had to help him. If he indulged himself tonight, she would be tired tomorrow.

Luke could not bear to see her tired.

Luca slowly stuck out her head and looked at him, "Is that true?"

"I've never lied to you," said Luke. He picked up the hair dryer and dried his hair.

Luca listened to the whirring sound of the hairdryer. It reminded her of the past.

Luke would not let her go that easily.

However, it seemed like Luke would still succeed in conquering her heart when she tried to push him away every time.

Luca found a comfortable sleeping position and lay down on the bed. She listened to the sound of the hairdryer and recalled the intimacy they shared back then. Her face turned slightly red.

Luke's hair was short, and it only took him a while to dry his hair.

He put the hairdryer back and lay down on the bed.

Luca could feel the warmth of his body leaning close to her. She could not help but tense up. Then, she felt his palm crossing her waist before she was pulled into his arms.

"You're tensing up." She could hear Luke's breath in her ears. "Why are you so nervous?"

"No, I'm not. Good night," replied Luca. She thought of reaching out to turn off the lights.
