"Mmm, stop it..."
Chen Yuan, deep in sleep, could vividly feel something licking his cheek, damp and moist. He instinctively reached out with his hand and suddenly woke up.
Wait.
Why did I fall asleep?
With a vacant expression, Chen Yuan sat up, staring blankly at Cola, who was licking his palm with its tongue, his foggy mind gradually clearing.
He remembered.
He had originally planned to doze off briefly on the meadow, to rest a bit, but as soon as he closed his eyes, the comfortable surroundings lulled him unknowingly into a slumber.
Chen Yuan took out his phone to check the time; it was now half-past six. He put the phone back and squinted at the sky full of red clouds, murmuring, "The good news is, the sun hasn't completely set."
He suddenly got up, his voice continuing, "The bad news is, it's only half an hour until nightfall."
