As time ticked away, sleepiness assaulted her, and slowly, Qin Youbei became a drowsy, sleep-deprived koala, nodding her head now and then. Eventually, she dozed off into a muddled sleep...
Qin Youbei thought.
Her body was too tired, void of strength, so she decided to sleep first, to talk after getting enough rest.
In any case, under the current circumstances, she couldn't do anything to him, and he couldn't do anything to her.
A moment later, without any reaction, Gu Xiao pushed Qin Youbei, and she cuddled like a small animal in his arms, finding a comfortable position to fall asleep again.
Later on, Qin Youbei felt she shouldn't have slept, but she had gotten up early in the morning and had a tough day; she was truly exhausted.
Gu Xiao managed to bring his tied hands down from above his head and used his mouth to untie them.
He rubbed his wrists, staring at the sleeping Qin Youbei, and muttered under his breath, "Stinky girl!"
