The next morning.
When Yao Xuanhang appeared with huge dark circles under his eyes, Jiangli and Xia Xin had already packed up, ready for breakfast.
"Young Master Yao, you're here, perfect, I just finished making breakfast, and was about to look for you guys," Xia Xin greeted them, then noticed Yao Xuanhang's dark circles and couldn't help but ask, "Young Master Yao, is this... because you can't sleep in a new place? Your dark circles are so severe?"
Glancing at Yao Xuanhang's complexion, Jiangli knew exactly why.
Yao Xuanhang, too embarrassed to say the reason he hadn't slept last night, chuckled awkwardly and explained, "Yeah, I'm a bit of a light sleeper..."
"Then try to catch up on some sleep on the way back later," Xia Xin said.
Yao Xuanhang nodded gratefully, stealing glances at Jiangli and several times seeming like he wanted to say something but then hesitating.
Jiangli had long noticed Yao Xuanhang's glances and knew what he wanted to ask, but she pretended not to see.
