Nian lie returned to the bedroom. There was only a table lamp on the bed. The light was dim and suitable for sleeping. The bed was bulging.
He slowed down his pace and walked lightly to the bed.
Ning Qing had not been at ease before she went to bed. Her whole body was curled up in a ball, and her posture was the kind that looked very insecure.
Nian lie carefully peeked his head over. When he saw the tears on the woman's face, he felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He reached out to wipe it, but the woman opened her eyes.
"Did I wake you up?" he asked in a low voice.
Ning Qing shook her head. I didn't really sleep.
In fact, she was not asleep at all. She had heard him when he opened the door.
Nian lie wiped away the tears on her face. His heart was in so much pain that it was churning. His voice became gentler as he said, " continue sleeping. Don't think too much.
Ning Qing did not say anything and let him wipe her tears with his fingers. I can't sleep.
