Zhuo Junyi's face flushed regardless. "I…I'm scared to sleep alone."
Plus, it was her first time sleeping in a rental and there was no power. She was scared to death.
Su Shijie gave a gentle cough and feigned harshness, "Zhuo Junyi, I'm a man. Are you aware of that? Aren't you afraid?"
Zhuo Junyi looked up at him and shook her head, "As long as it's you, I'm not afraid. I know you would never hurt me."
In the end, he gave way. At this late hour, it would not be right to send her back home.
"Silly girl, alright then, go to sleep."
Did this girl take him for granted so much so she believed he would never do anything to her? Could she be that confident in him?
Zhuo Junyi trailed closely behind him. Shijie's bed wasn't very large, but it was still more than adequate for two people to sleep in.
Su Shijie staked out his territory with the duvet in the middle, just like the divide between Chu and Han.
