By the time Mo Jingshen returned to the hotel, it was late afternoon. The hotel staff informed him that Miss Ji did not leave her room today. She contacted room service for a simple meal at noon but did not make any further requests.
When Mo Jingshen entered, the woman on the bed was laying on her side, and her body was slightly curled up. Her breath was quiet and even, and her entire body was wrapped in the sheets. It seemed like she had been asleep the whole time.
The man knitted his graceful, deep brows. He took long steps forward and approached her bedside.
The soft light in the room illuminated the woman's clear complexion. Her skin and lips were pale, and her long eyelashes left faint shadows on her white, thin face. Her shoulder-length hair spread across the pillow and, due to the pain in her stomach, her body was curled up even as she was asleep.
