Liang Chen rarely saw Jing Haohao, maybe once every three to five days. Typically, they would lie silently together after turning off the lights. Then Liang Chen would abruptly roll over, laying on top of her.
There was no sweet pillow talk between the two. Jing Haohao still resisted Liang Chen greatly. Every time this happened, she felt as though time was moving extremely slowly.
Liang Chen liked to hold Jing Haohao while falling asleep, yet she wasn't comfortable in his arms. She would rest against his warm chest, waiting for him to completely fall asleep, then she would gently escape his embrace and move to the furthest corner of the bed to sleep alone.
Sometimes in the deep of night, Liang Chen would wake up to an empty embrace. When he would find Jing Haohao curled up with her back to him, her frail body curled up into a small ball far away from him, he would lose all traces of sleepiness.
