In the end, Wen Ran didn't even know when she fell asleep.
Maybe it was because she hadn't had a good night's sleep these past days. For the first two nights, with Mo Xiuchen in the next room, she managed to sleep somewhat soundly. However, for the nights that followed, she was tormented by nightmares each night. Tonight, as she lay in his arms, although somewhat confused and dazed, she eventually succumbed to fatigue and fell asleep in his embrace.
Feeling the girl in his arms breathing evenly, Mo Xiuchen slowly let her go, removed his arm from her neck, got up, and went to the bathroom for a cold shower.
Sitting on the edge of the bed, he examined her peaceful sleeping face, and his lips unconsciously curved into a gentle smile.
Compared to her leaving, being able to be by her side, to see her, and to feel her breath, he was more than grateful.
He had already guessed a possibility in his heart, and so he felt less panicked and afraid.
