He paused for a moment, then looking sideways, he saw Nanxi asleep by his bedside. At that moment, his eyes suddenly moistened...
He reached out to play with her hair, his touch light. Her hair seemed to have grown even longer than before. He remembered the first time he met her, her hair was only shoulder length, and now, it was almost down to her waist!
He suddenly recalled an old cheesy but warm internet quote: "When my hair reaches my waist, will you, young man, marry me?"
He took a deep breath, trying to retract his hand, but the sleeping girl's eyelashes flickered and she woke up...
The girl squinted at him, and the corners of her mouth curled up, "Weihuan, are you awake? Are you feeling better? Do you need some water?"
Li Weihuan pursed his lips and looked into her eyes without a word.
Nanxi looked puzzled, her recent awakening causing her to feel slightly fatigued. She reached out to touch his forehead, asking, "Are you feeling unwell?"
