Hu Tao woke from her dreams to find herself inside a tent, her expression still a bit dazed.

Seeing Kyo suddenly slump onto the dining table without moving, Soyo panicked and quickly approached to check on her.
Up close, she called Kyo’s name and gently shook her s...
2025-05-09 12:58:24 +0000 UTC View Post“I understand.”
Soyo gave a somewhat forlorn smile. For some reason, Kyo’s mind automatically supplied an imagined voice-over to that expression—“But isn’t this fine too?” 2025-05-09 12:58:20 +0000 UTC View Post
“Hmm…” Kikukawa Kyo bit down lightly on the chopsticks in her mouth, pausing just as she was about to take a bite of food.

Kyo’s legs were practically wrapped around Soyo’s waist, the two pressed tightly together.

It was obvious who ...
