Tale of Two Phoenixes

 Chapter 1: 

 

Waking up from a sweet and deep sleep, Chu Yu vaguely felt someone beside her. She half-supported her soft body and opened her drowsy eyes. Chu Yu casually, even somewhat absentmindedly, glanced at the figure beside her.

She slept very comfortably.

She thought it was her friend playing around.

But as soon as she looked, Chu Yu felt as if struck by lightning, and all the comfort and leisure around her vanished.

The young man sleeping beside Chu Yu appeared to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with jet-black hair draped over his round shoulders, his features exquisite. His eyebrows resembled distant mountains, and his lips were like peach blossoms in March.

This young man was as exquisitely beautiful as a girl, but no matter how beautiful he was, he was still a man.

For any normal girl, waking up to find a naked man beside her would probably not be a pleasant experience, even if the young man's appearance was extremely beautiful.

Her mind, still somewhat clouded from sleep, was instantly jolted awake, and then she was even more surprised to find that the silk quilt covering her body was also completely naked—no wonder she had felt that something was wrong earlier.

In shock, Chu Yu slowly felt a sense of indignation, which then suddenly intensified, causing her whole body to tremble slightly!

What on earth was going on?

At this moment, Chu Yu noticed that the quilt covering her was a very delicate silk quilt, intricately embroidered, and the bed she was lying on was large enough for her to roll around freely.

Who was this young man? How did he end up sleeping here? And why was she also naked?

Gritting her teeth, Chu Yu tried to wake up the young man, but suddenly heard a soft moan from behind her.

Her body stiffened.

Slowly turning around, slowly moving her gaze, when Chu Yu saw another naked man lying behind her, she finally couldn't control herself and remain calm.

Shock, fear, indignation—complex and intense emotions surged within Chu Yu's chest. The sudden turn of events was too much for her to accept. Her mind even seemed to stall, finally manifesting as a low, suppressed scream: "Ah—!" She tightly hugged the silk quilt to cover her body.

Startled by Chu Yu's scream, the two young men lying beside her quickly opened their eyes. As the two young men sat up, Chu Yu saw three more young men rising one after another from under the bed. They were all wrapped in thin silk, which slipped off their bodies as they got up, revealing smooth skin.

Chu Yu felt her vision blur, almost fainting. Fortunately, her self-control was still decent, compelling herself not to lose consciousness at this moment. Even so, she couldn't help but feel a bit dazed: one, two, three, four, five—there were five naked men. What was going on?

How could such a absurd scene be presented before her?

Chu Yu bit her lip hard, her teeth sinking into the soft flesh of her lips. The slight pain helped her to calm down and clear her mind slightly.

When Chu Yu regained her composure, four of the five young men had already knelt neatly beside the bed. The remaining one was the first young man she saw, who quickly stretched out his arm and pulled down the large clothes hanging on the screen. The oversized clothes unfolded like butterfly wings, draping over his smooth and slender body.

The sound of the clothes breaking the silence shattered the dead quiet.

He was the only one in the room who could be considered dressed. Chu Yu didn't know where to place her gaze and involuntarily looked at him.

Chu Yu noticed that the clothes were very spacious and elegantly made, with pure white fabric, but the neckline and cuffs had a black trim about an inch and a half wide, with faintly shining delicate patterns.

As the clothes draped over him, the young man's demeanor immediately became apparent. He appeared to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a beautiful face and a hint of innocence, but his eyes were elegant, like the blue sky and white clouds, like towering mountains and flowing water.

When he had his eyes closed, Chu Yu felt his beauty, but when he opened them, she could only notice his dignified and unattainable demeanor, as if his gentle beauty had been washed away by the lofty air.

Who was he?

The young man used one hand to adjust the collar of his clothes and the other to smooth his hair behind his neck. He turned his head slightly and smiled at Chu Yu. Compared to the other four kneeling figures, he had an almost refined and open-minded demeanor. While others knelt, he stood, and he was the only one in the room who met Chu Yu's gaze with an equal look.

Slowly, he walked over, his clothes brushing slightly against the smooth, dustless floor. He looked gently at Chu Yu and asked, "Princess, what's wrong? Did you have a nightmare?"

There was a graceful and lazy fragrance lingering in the air, and Chu Yu suddenly felt an uncontrollable chill rising in her heart. Even in this warm room like spring, she couldn't help but want to shiver.

Perhaps... this was not a joke at all?
