My consciousness was heavy, my head was dizzy, my eyelids were tightly glued together, and I felt as if the flesh and blood in my body were being forcibly sucked away by something.

"I...what's wrong?"

Lu Qiong struggled to get up from the bed. It was pitch black outside the window. The man who sat up was stunned for a moment.

"Is it evening already?"

His lips were slightly chapped and his throat was sore. Lu Qiong looked back and forth in the room. His current physical condition made him eager to find a source of water.

Perhaps it was the blessing of the god of luck, or perhaps for some other reason, under the dim yellow light, the liquid contained in the transparent glass emitted a crystal light.

Not caring about anything else, the thirsty Lu Qiong picked up the glass on the bedside table and drank all the unknown liquid inside.

call!

His dry throat was finally lubricated, and Lu Qiong felt saved in his heart.

After smacking his lips and savoring the taste, Lu Qiong found that the water was quite delicious.

...............................................................

When Lu Qiong staggered out of the bedroom, Aponiya just walked out of the kitchen door carrying a few plates of steaming dishes.

As soon as he saw Aponya, for some reason Lu Qiong's mind suddenly went blank, followed by inexplicable palpitations.

Lu Qiong was very confused about this. "What's going on? Why do I feel scared when I see Sister Aponya?"

He had completely forgotten everything that happened in the room during the day. He only remembered that he was cleaning the room seriously, and then fell asleep because of an inexplicable sleepiness.

"Xiao Qiong, you're awake. Come here quickly. Dinner will be served soon."

Having already found a seat, Padu waved happily to Lu Qiong.

"Okay, okay, I'll be right there."

Lu Qiong, whose thoughts were interrupted, didn't think much about it and just thought it was because he hadn't seen Aponiya for a long time.

Plus, her way of getting along with him is completely different from Pado, so this is understandable.

"Wait, just now... Sister Aponya should have seen me, right? Why didn't she say a word to me?"

For some reason, Lu Qiong felt empty and uncomfortable when he thought about the gradual unfamiliarity between him and Aponya, and the possible estrangement that might arise.

However, how could the almost omniscient Aponiya not notice Lu Qiong? But she was just pretending. In fact, this "inadvertent" glance was enough to reveal Lu Qiong's physical condition. Then she walked towards the living room with the dishes without stopping.

Lu Qiong followed closely behind in silence.

Approaching the dining table, Paduo excitedly took Lu Qiong's hand and sat down.

But when she looked up, the careful girl noticed that the man was in a strange mood.

"Xiao Qiong, are you... feeling unwell?"

Paduo touched Lu Qiong's forehead worriedly, "Your temperature should be normal. What's wrong with Xiao Qiong...?"

Padu muttered in his heart.

"Sister Paduo, I'm fine. It might just be because I didn't sleep well this afternoon. Don't worry."

Lu Qiong suppressed his inner discomfort and smiled.
