It was already a few hours past midnight. A rainstorm had just subsided, but the weather remained gloomy, and the breeze was chillingly cold.
The cold was so frigid that one could feel it permeate into their bones. It felt like winter had arrived right after summer came to an end.
There was no time for anyone to catch their breath.
Ji Yuxian removed his outer coat and covered Su Jiu's body with it, before carrying her bridal style. Carefully, he walked into the bedroom.
Although his face was ashen, there were no traces of sorrow or anger. Su Jiu gazed into his jet-black eyes that were as boundless as the night sky. She seemed to see dark billows rippling through them, which gradually drowned her pain away.
Back in the bedroom, he removed his outer robe and laid on the bed. Ji Yuxian held her tightly and whispered, "The sun's going to rise very soon, you should go to sleep!"
