Chapter 239 - 120: Awkwardness (Part 2)
When Sang Wan woke up, the sky was already brightly lit. She gently opened her eyes only to find that at some point Shi Fengju’s head had come close to her own, resting almost on her shoulder and he was sound asleep, breathing cool and warm air against the side of her neck.
Sang Wan got so frightened that her body went limp, and upon glancing and seeing that his eyes were still closed in deep slumber, she calmed her racing heart, carefully shifting a little bit towards the inside, let out a long sigh of relief, gently sat up, and reached out to push on his quilt, "young master, young master, wake up!"
Shi Fengju had actually already awakened when she started moving, but out of fear of embarrassing her, he didn’t dare to open his eyes.

"Mmm!" Sang Wan nodded vaguely, softly saying, "Move aside a bit, I’ll go get your clothes!"
"Alright!" Hearing this, Shi Fengju obliged and moved aside, Sang Wan then got out of bed, took clothes from her luggage, and served him as he dressed.
Early in the morning, Liu Ya rolled up her sleeves to help Mrs. Fang with chores around the stove, while Xingzhi waited at the room’s doorway to serve the couple. Hearing movements inside the room, Xingzhi gently knocked on the door and called, "young master, mistress!"
