Journey to Happy Ending novel Chapter 44

Summer was a scorching season, but the mornings were cool and comfortable. The morning sun shone on the quiet world, where the bustle was yet to begin. It was peaceful and pleasant. Daisy Ouyang woke up to such a morning.

She suffered from a hangover. With her eyelashes moving up, she slowly opened her beautiful eyes. The sunlight shone through the curtain and made her squint. She looked lethargic, confused but lovely.

When she rubbed her eyes and opened them again, Daisy suddenly saw a handsome face beside her. She looked around in panic, only to find that it was not her sweet home in the dormitory building. She gave herself a pinch on the cheek. 'Ouch!' It hurt, so she wasn't dreaming.

Daisy panicked. She didn't know why she had woken up again in this man's arms after six years. How would he humiliate her this time? Maybe he would think she played some tricks on him again. If so, how was she supposed to tell him the truth, which she knew nothing about? He might be mad at her again when he woke up.

She took his arm away from her waist carefully, trying to run away while he was still asleep. However, he put it back around her before she could get out of his arms. Daisy was so scared that she froze. Her face flushed.

Actually, Edward Mu had woken up when she moved. He just wanted to see what she would do, only to find that she was so different and lovely. He pulled her back into his arms, murmuring, "Be good. Don't get up now. It's still early." Edward had a problem. He got mad easily when he didn't get enough sleep. He was up late last night and still felt tired now, so he sounded a little upset.

Daisy just stayed in his arms with her face against his chest. She could hear his heartbeat clearly. The scent of jasmine from him filled the air all around her. That was what it was like in his arms. It was intoxicating.

She wasn't sure he knew who was in his arms now, nor did she know whom he loved. However, she decided to take the chance and stay there longer. It would be fine if he got mad at her again when he woke up. She could at least, keep this beautiful moment in her memory.

Daisy raised her head slowly. She stared at his handsome face that she had seen many times in her dreams. Her hand ran across his eyebrows, his nose and his lips. She moved so gently that one in a sound sleep couldn't feel it, but Edward wasn't asleep.

"What? You like what you see?" Daisy stopped and looked into a pair of smiling eyes following that hoarse voice. Edward was staring at her mischievously.

"Er! I didn't mean to get into your bed this time. I don't know why I'm here. Believe it or not, I didn't drug you or play any tricks." Daisy struggled out of his arms in a hurry, trying to explain to him. She was herself confused. Why did these things happen to her?
