Gu Qiangwei didn't know how long she had slept when she suddenly frowned with a splitting headache, gradually waking in the dead of night.
She grimaced in pain, feeling extremely dry and parched.
"I want to drink water..."
The person in her arms moved, startling Qin Sijue who was half-asleep; until now, his strong arms were still wrapped around her, starting to feel numb.
As he opened his narrow eyes, the first sight was Gu Qiangwei's pained expression as she furrowed her brows.
Then, his gaze fell on her cracked lips.
"So thirsty..."
Her eyelids were too heavy, and for a moment, Gu Qiangwei simply couldn't open her eyes.
Hearing her muttering, Qin Sijue gently withdrew his arm that was cushioned under her neck and moved a bit.
Then he turned over, got out of bed, quickly poured a glass of water, and brought it to her parched lips.
After drinking several sips of water, the sleepy Gu Qiangwei managed to slightly open her eyelids.
