Xuan Yang took another shower. Zhou Dang attended to her thoroughly, and when he carried her back to bed, he didn't forget to pour her a glass of warm water: "You go to sleep first. I'll head to the study to finish up the remaining work."

Xuan Yang's heart pounded like a drum. She shot him a quick glance and met his deep, devouring eyes.
