Chapter 143 - Hungover and Awkwardness

When Ying Sheng woke up, she felt every muscle in her body was aching and like someone had hit her head with a hammer.

She rubbed her eyes as she groaned but suddenly she stiffened.

Ying Sheng turned her head and saw that her legs were tangled together with Liam's. One of his arms were wrapped around her waist where her tank top had ridden up.

His light snores sounded in the room with his lips  slightly parted. Ying Sheng just stared at him as her  lips curved into a smile.

Many thoughts assaulted her mind as she surveyed her surroundings. The memories of her mother slapping her, going to club, meeting Liam and coming to a hotel flashed in her mind.

The weird thing is that she doesn't remember what happened when she was drunk.

Why was Liam in the same bed with her? She was still wearing her clothes so Ying Sheng knew nothing had happened. Or something did happened?

Her breath caught when her eyes slammed into Liam's. She doesn't even know when he woke up or how long he has been staring at her.

"Ying Sheng.". Liam said in a husky voice since he just woke up.

They just stared at each other without saying anything. Liam didn't what to say. He wasn't sure if she remembers what happened last night.

Now that the alcohol was out of his system he was pretty nervous about her reaction. Liam ran his gaze over he body determing if she was okay before looking back in her eyes.

"Hi, Liam.". Ying Sheng awakwardly as a faint blush tainted her cheeks.  Geez, she was blushing and she doesn't blush!

She doesn't know why she was embarrassed even though nothing happened. Nothing happened right?

Liam flashed her smile, "Hi, how are you feeling?". Liam asked softly.

Ying Sheng groaned, "I feel like shit! My whole body is aching."

Liam chuckled, "Drinking seven bottles of wine does that to your body."

Ying Sheng widened her eyes. Swallowing the lump in her throat she stared back at Liam.

"Did I do anything crazy? I don't remember the details."

Something flashed in Liam's eyes but she couldn't decide what she saw. Like a trace of hesitation.

"Nothing, we just drunk and played truth or dare. After that we came to sleep. I was drunk so I slept beside you without knowing."

Ying Sheng didn't quite believe him but she nodded.

"I will ran a bath for you." Liam said as ease down the bed and walked towards the bathroom.

"Oh, thanks." 

Ying Sheng could feel something has changed between them but she couldn't pinpoint what exactly.

"I'm done." A few minutes later, Liam's voice pulled her out of her stupor and she stared at him dumfounded.

"Huh?"

Liam's brows knitted together in a worried frown.

"Are you sure you're okay?" 

There was a weird feeling in the pit of her stomach and she doesn't know why she felt that way. Maybe it's the alcohol.

Ying Sheng drew in a deep breath and nodded.

"Yeah, I'm okay. Thank you"

Liam nodded, "Alright then, I will call someone to bring you clothes. I will be in the next room if you need me."

Liam said and stared at her for a few moments before walking out of the room.

Ying Sheng breathed a sigh of relief when he left. She never thought she would wake up on the same bed with Liam on the same bed one day.

She could still remember the warmth from his body. Apart form her cousin and aunty, she felt someone really cared about her.

Her mind rushed to the look she saw in his eyes a while ago. Why was that look in his eyes? Did she forget an important detail?

Groaning she pulled herself slowly from the bed and padded towards the bathroom.

Ying Sheng closed the door and glanced at the bathroom. It was beautiful but she was in no mood to appreciate the beauty.

Walking towards the mirror she sighed when she saw her reflection. Her eyes were puffy and her hair was a mess. Judging from her eyes she knew she might have cried.

Ying Sheng furrowed her brows. She wonders what made her cried.

Ying Sheng stripped her clothes and ease down the tub and laid back. She m.o.a.ned in satisfaction when the water touched her skin.

Ying Sheng took her time in the tub before coming out.

Afterwards she wrapped herself with one of the towels neatly piled up beside the sink and returned to the bedroom.

Ying Sheng saw a fresh clothes and undergarments on the bed. Ying Sheng felt warm in her heart. Letting the towel drop, she changed into the dark skinny jeans and red sweater.

Ying Sheng walked out of the room. The penthouse was beautiful. Everything was just so luxurious and posh. Soft cushions, gigantic flat screen TV and a cozy fireplace.

"How are you feeling now?" Ying Sheng spun around and saw Liam standing in the middle of the room. He had taken a bath and had changed into a new shirt and pants that hung on his h.i.p.s.

His hands were in his pocket as he smiled softly at her.  Ying Sheng stomach twisted with a weird feeling as she stared at him. Suddenly the atmosphere became tense.

"A little better." She mumbled as she avoided his gaze. She didn't even ask how he knew her size for the clothes. Ying Sheng didn't want to make things more awkward.

"Let's eat. After that we take the painkillers."

Ying Sheng nodded and followed him to the kitchen.

"I don't know what you want to eat so I ordered alot."

Ying Sheng stomach rumbled at the sight of the food on the kitchen counter.

"Hmm. These are okay."

They ate in silence before Liam spoke breaking the silence atmosphere.

"Are you planning on staying here?"

Ying Sheng looked up and grinned, "Why Cutie, you wanna spend the rest of your life with me here?"
