The young lady remained quiet for a moment, and then her eyes turned watery as if something suddenly came to her. In an even more raspy tone, she asked, "Is it because… I pestered Uncle Qingcheng to sleep together every night. Uncle Qingcheng… you don't like it?"
Gu Qingcheng didn't make a sound, though his brows were knitted even tighter now.
"Uncle Qingcheng… then, tonight, you can return to your room to sleep. I won't disturb you tonight, okay? It must be uncomfortable sleeping in the study. I… I can sleep in my room by myself, it's okay. I'm not scared anymore. You rest well."
Gu Qingcheng said nothing. When he heard Yun Liuli say that she wasn't going to look for him tonight, there was an empty feeling in his heart.
"Go sleep a while first!" Gu Qingcheng's chest felt sore as he spoke to Yun Liuli.
Yun Liuli nodded, then bent over to pick up her pillow. She went back to the bedroom without saying a word.
