Sometime later, Shen Xue closed his niece's door and went downstairs only to find Lu Xiulan asleep on the couch, snoring lightly. He wasn't surprised at all since the twins could be a handful at times, and it was past midnight already.
Since their arrival from Country A, this woman avoided him like a plague. He hadn't talked to her for almost two years now and wondered where they went wrong.
Shen Xue pulled the spare blanket that was draped on the arm of the couch and covered her with it. He sat beside her and sighed.
Looking over at the sleeping woman beside him, he couldn't help but notice that this was one of those rare times that she let her expressionless mask down. She looked so peaceful, and every now and then, her expression would change as she dreamed.
