The sky was turning light as dawn approached. If it were in the countryside, this would be the time when roosters crow, disturbing dreams. But in the bustling city, it's a moment of complete silence.
"Ah!"
Suddenly, a terrified scream echoed in Chu Ge's bedroom.
Chu Ge, who was sleeping soundly, was jolted awake by the scream. He opened his sleepy eyes, glanced in the direction of the bedroom, and then closed his eyes again.
The scream, of course, came from Mu Lingshan, who, upon waking up, was startled to find herself in an unfamiliar place, which triggered her reaction.
After the scream, Mu Lingshan fully awoke. First, she pulled back the covers and checked her own condition. After a slight sigh of relief, she sat up against the headboard and looked around the room before rubbing her temples.
Due to the hangover, Mu Lingshan had a headache, and her mind was a bit hazy, filled with fragmented memories.
