In the study, Jin Muchen seriously explained, "That night, she really slipped, and I went to help her. I was also running a fever that day. She was in the hospital, but I passed out at the time, so I didn't know you were there."
Su Qiqi sat down. The rain had started outside without her knowing when, and now it was coming down hard, making loud noises on the window.
"You fainted?" Su Qiqi's brows furrowed. She had indeed seen Jin Muchen lying in bed at the time, but she hadn't thought it was that serious.
Jin Muchen nodded with a look of distress, "I woke up and didn't see you there."
"As long as you're okay."
The room fell silent save for the sound of the rain, like a drumbeat striking at everyone's heart.
After a moment, Jin Muchen raised his head, "Go sleep in the bedroom."
He added, "I'll sleep here. I still have work to finish."
Su Qiqi stood up and walked to the door, her hand resting on the door handle, "I trust you, but I still feel very upset."
