Waking up the next day to a scene of utter chaos, and two incredibly beautiful girls sleeping naked beside him, Mo Xuan was dumbfounded! He didn't know Luo Shiya at the time, but he knew Luo Muqi—a student in the Art Department of Kyoto University, instantly hailed as the school's most beautiful girl upon entering the university. Someone had once joked that if Kyoto had princesses, they could only be the Luo sisters. And he had been drugged, and in one night, he had slept with the eldest and second princesses of the Luo family! Surprisingly, the Luo sisters didn't make things difficult for him, nor did they retaliate. When he ran into Luo Muqi at school, she would smile and greet him, inviting him to lunch. Several times, Mo Xuan sought her out, apologizing and saying he was willing to accept any punishment. Luo Muqi simply smiled and said, "Just remember that. Don't worry, we don't blame you." After that, Luo Muqi disappeared. A year later, Mo Xuan was invited by people sent by the Luo family to an institution to have samples collected. He had no idea what had happened.
