Xue Lixue also lay facedown on her office desk, sleeping blissfully.
The computer screen was still displaying the unfinished proposal.
Looking at that sweet, charming face tinged with fatigue, Shen Zhou couldn't help feeling a pang of heartache.
He sighed softly and gently placed Doudou on the couch beside him.
Then, he walked over to Xue Lixue, patted her shoulder, and said, "Hey, wake up, it's time to take Doudou to bed."
But Xue Lixue just turned her head slightly, waving her little hand gently with a hint of annoyance in her sleep-talk, "Don't bother me... I want to sleep, you... just go away."
Shen Zhou smiled helplessly, ready to wake her up firmly.
Suddenly, he heard her muttering, "Shen Zhou... you big jerk, just keep up the pretense. I want to see when... your true colors show. You're so cold to me on the surface, but I know..."
"You must really like me... Shen Zhou, you must like me a lot, right? You love to pretend... You're so good at it."
