109 Drop the Ac

Liling woke up to a bright sunny morning. The light rays were already seeping through the window of the room. She lay there gaping at the rising sun.

She smiled remembering it was Sunday, she didn't have to go to X.

Her eyes widened when she remembered she had slept in Liu Wei's room, she sat upright immediately and quickly scanned the room for Liu Wei.

That was when she noticed that she was on Liu Wei's large bed but he was not in the room.

She quickly came down from the bed and checked the other connected rooms for him but he wasn't there.

She wondered how she, who had slept on the couch woke up on the bed and Liu Wei was not even in the room, he isn't able to walk so how did it happen? Is he alright now?

Random questions ran through her mind as she walked down the stairs, she stopped abruptly on her tracks when she saw Yan Ran coming out of the kitchen with a plate filled with fruits.

Yan Ran who heard footsteps, turned to look at the stairs. As soon as she saw that it was Liling, a deep frown appeared on her face.

She immediately shifted her gaze from her and continued walking towards the balcony.

Liling was tempted to ask her if she had seen Liu Wei that morning but the glare she had given her shut her mouth up.

She waited for her disappear completely before she continued down the stairs.

"Liling!!, are you just waking up now? it's already past ten. "

Kim who had just come out of the kitchen too, asked when she saw that Liling was still looking like someone who just woke up her sleep. Her hair was extremely haggard and her eyes a bit swollen.

"Have you seen Mr Liu Wei this morning? "

Liling who was more concerned about how she appeared on his bed ignored her question.

"You mean young master Liu Wei? Yes, he left around thirty minutes past eight, didn't you see him?"

"Did you see him leave? "

Liling asked again. Kim was surprised by her questions. She chuckled but answered still.

"Yes of course, how then would I know that he left by half past eight? "

"What I mean is, did he walk with his two legs or someone helped him?"

This time, Kim had to come nearer to touch her on the forehead.

"Liling, are you sick?, did you have a bad dream?. How would you ask me if he walked with his two legs?, no he developed wings and flew through the windows. Of course he walked with his two legs!"

Liling looked at her puzzled and Kim watched her amused, she was surprised by the strange questions she was asking.

'So that means, Mr Liu Wei had carried me to the bed. But, how did he heal overnight? The doctor said it would take weeks, or even a few months! How strange! '

"What's wrong with you?, why are you staring so blankly at me? "

"Nothing, it's just... I mean, I think I had a bad dream, haha"

Liling laughed and Kim joined her laughing too.

"Yeah, a very bad one at that! Hurry, go take a shower, you look disorganized. "

"Disorganized? "

"You don't know, you need to cut your hair a little it's too long, you look like a masquerade right now! "

"What!! "

Liling screamed, her hands on her face.

'So Liu Wei saw me like this this morning?'

Kim who didn't know her reason for screaming consoled her.

"Liling, don't worry, is not as if Liu Wei saw you, you were still sleeping when he left right?, so it's not that bad. Just go take a shower, and you'll be good as new. "

She patted her back lightly and walked away.

Liling stood there, mouth wide open. As her mind tried to imagine her present physical state.
