Rong Zhan's simple words put Gu Qingxue at ease. She felt relieved. Then, she felt a strong sense of fatigue sweep over her, making her eyelids feel extremely heavy.
Rong Zhan had been nervously observing Gu Qingxue's condition. Seeing that she was about to fall asleep, he felt even more anxious. He gently stroked Gu Qingxue's long hair and advised her gently, "You must be tired from the dream. Go to sleep first."
There was still a long way to go from here to the maple forest. Even if Gu Qingxue forced herself to stay awake, she could not increase their speed. Since that was the case, they might as well speed up and leave this troublesome place.
Gu Qingxue's anxious heart calmed down a lot. She looked up at the man whom she could rely on. In the end, she closed her eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Watching Gu Qingxue fall asleep, Rong Zhan's eyes were filled with sympathy. He lowered his head and kissed her forehead gently.
