Qin Ge left very early the next day. Xing Jiuan wanted to send her off, but she did not let her.
"Rest a little longer. Just accompany me more when I'm done with the matters over there."
"Okay." Xing Jiuan pursed her lips and nodded.
Qin Ge smiled and hugged her. "I'm leaving. Go and rest."
"I'll send you downstairs."
"No need. It's quite cold outside now.
"It's not like I'll be gone for long. Don't worry about me. The car has already arrived, I'm leaving."
"Okay."
Xing Jiuan went to the window and watched Qin Ge walk out slowly.
The lights in this neighborhood were not very bright at night. Qin Ge's back was soon hidden in the darkness.
Xing Jiuan watched for a while more until Qin Ge sent her a message.
[Qin Ge: I'm already in the car. Don't look at me anymore. Go and rest!!!]
[Jiuan: Okay.]
Xing Jiuan drew the curtains and lay on the bed. She was no longer sleepy.
