    Sunlight streamed through the window, falling on him like a sleeping angel. But in Xiao Duoyu's eyes, it wasn't like that at all. Pointing at the boy on the bed, she said, "Being tied up like this must be so uncomfortable." In her vision, Zhan Xiaoye was bound by layers upon layers of black chains, the chains stretching into the void, each strand draining the life force from his body. Xiao Duoyu had never seen these before, but she instinctively felt disgusted and wanted to destroy the chains. As soon as Xiao Duoyu touched the bed, she scrambled onto Zhan Xiaoye in a few quick movements, opened her little mouth revealing two tiny tiger teeth, and gave him a quick, fierce kiss on the cheek. "Ah Ye, Ah Ye, you're awake?!" He couldn't express his joy, so he picked up Xiao Duoyu and kissed her twice. "My little Duoyu, no, little prince, you woke Sleeping Beauty up with just one kiss, hahahahaha..." Xiao Duoyu was still in a daze from the oxygen intoxication and didn't react much to the kisses.
