Chapter 560 - Polearms (1/2)

An hour has passed since Yuan woke up from his sleep, but he hasn't been able to move, much less go anywhere because of Meixiu, who was hugging his body with incredible strength.

Fortunately, Yuan only had to wait a few more minutes before Meixiu woke up and realized the situation.

”I-I am sorry!” Meixiu quickly jumped out of the bed when she realized that she had been hugging him while in her sleep.

”It's okay,” Yuan said in a calm voice.

”How long have you been awake?” Meixiu couldn't help but ask him.

”I don't know, but I've been awake for a bit now,” he responded.

”W-Why didn't you wake me up if that was the case?”

”You were sleeping very peacefully, and I couldn't tell myself to wake you up in that state.”

Meixiu blushed after hearing his words.

'Does this mean he has been watching my sleeping face this entire time?' she wondered inwardly.

”Anyways, now that you're awake, I can finally use the bathroom,” Yuan said as he got off the bed and went to the bathroom.

”Not bad, Meixiu. Looks like you're finally showing your true self.” Chu Lixuiang's voice suddenly resounded, causing Meixiu to look at her.

”Chu Liuxiang… It's not like that…” Meixiu refuted in a low voice.

”Who are you trying to fool? As someone who is deeply in love with Brother Yuan, I can tell when another girl is also in love with him. You're not benefiting anybody by lying to yourself.”

Meixiu remained silent for a moment before releasing a deep sigh.

”You're right. I love him.” Meixiu said as she looked at Chu Liuxiang with a confronting gaze.

Chu Liuxiang smiled and said, ”I know.”

The two of them proceeded to silently stare at each other without blinking like they were in a staring contest.

After a long moment of silence, Chu Liuxiang broke the silence and said, ”I wish you the best of luck.”

She then left the bed and made her way outside the bedroom.

'I really don't understand her at all…' Meixiu shook her head afterward.

Sometime later, once they all washed their faces, they made their way to the silver restaurant for breakfast.

After their breakfast, they went to the training building for another day of training.

”Hey, Yuan.” Wang Ming approached Yuan with a sword in his hands.

”Sorry, but I won't be able to spar with you today,” Yuan said to him.

”Eh? Why not?”

”I already have enough experience with the sword, and I want to practice with the other weapons while I am still here, so I will be going to the other floors today. I am only here to let you know.”

”I see. That's fine. I should probably take a few days off too.” Wang Ming nodded.
