Chi Enen was jolted awake by pain in the middle of the night.
A dull ache in her lower abdomen had pulled her out of her dreams and into consciousness.
Strange...
Why does my stomach hurt this much?
Chi Enen gritted her teeth, pushed herself up from the bed, and realized it was pitch-dark outside. She had no idea what time it was and wanted to turn on the light to check the time. However, a sudden twist of pain in her abdomen made her arm slip, knocking the water cup on the nightstand onto the ground.
The glass water cup shattered with a crisp, clear sound—
Then with a bang, the bedroom door was violently flung open, and a figure accompanied by a gust of cold air rushed in front of her like a whirlwind, pressing down on her shoulders, his voice urgent, "Chi Enen, what's wrong?"
"Li Beijue, you're back?" she was stunned for a moment.
Wasn't he overseas?
Hadn't Butler Huo said it would take him three days to return?
How could he have returned so quickly?
