When Chu Molin went over to hold Qin Xue for sleep, she opened her eyes.
"I finished washing, I'm a bit tired and almost fell asleep," Qin Xue said, showing her talent for lying with her eyes open.
"If you're tired, go to sleep, don't wait for me," Chu Molin said, looking at Qin Xue with concern.
"Hmm, I'll go to sleep now, and you should rest early too," Qin Xue was really tired today.
"Sleep," Chu Molin pulled the thin quilt to cover her stomach.
"Mhm," Qin Xue's voice grew quieter as she agreed.
It wasn't long before her breathing slowed and steadied.
Chu Molin shook his head, feeling touched that she had waited for him despite being so tired. He just wanted to hold her hand for the rest of his life and hope for the best.
Chu Molin read for a while and soon went to sleep without delay.
The next day, when the wake-up alarm sounded, Qin Xue rolled over, muttered how noisy it was, then went quiet, and soon fell back asleep.
