Chapter 1994 Numbness
- Peng was a bit slow to react, responding with a hesitant "oh oh" before heading into the hotel lobby to borrow a bathrobe for Shi Ning from the front desk. He knew that Shi Ning was wearing a white T-shirt, which would be practically see-through once wet. Despite the courtyard being empty and dimly lit, Shi Ning would have to pass through the lobby to get back to her room. Wanting to avoid any potential embarrassment in the crowded lobby, Peng decided to borrow a bathrobe for Shi Ning.
- Meanwhile, on the poolside, Shi Ning had just emerged from the water, leaving a trail of drips on the floor as she searched for her shoes.
- Leynthall followed suit, coming out of the pool and casually grabbing the towel he had brought to wrap around Shi Ning before lifting her up horizontally.
