After a long night's rest Qie Xieling finally rose from his slumber. He sat up right in bed and rubbed his half lidded eyes in a daze. The little dumpling was still trying to figure out where he was and just as he recalled Feng Zi, he excitedly turned around expecting to see his new dad but to his surprise he wasn't there.
Instead, there was Airen who was sitting in a chair browsing something on her laptop with a stern expression. Beside her was a neat pile of clothes meant for him and as soon as she noticed he was awake she said, "Little ancestor, you are awake. Why don't you go and wash up and I will go order you some breakfast," putting down the laptop.
"Why am I here? Where is dad?" he asked his expression sullen.
Airen heaved a deep sigh recalling yesterday's events and said, "He had something to discuss with the general. You will see him at breakfast. Now, be good and wash up while I am downstairs," before heading out the door.
