Night.
Xu Jingxi needed to leave just once, getting dressed to go after answering a phone call.
Leh Ying was curled up in her quilt, her eyes half-open, struggling to hold back tears.
A faint sobbing filled the air near her ears; Xu Jingxi stopped buttoning his shirt, leaned down, lifted her from the back of her neck, his movements brooking no argument, and gently kissed her trembling eyelids, "Didn't eat enough?"
The meaning behind his question was obvious, Leh Ying's eyelashes fluttered, and she shook her head fearfully, "Absolutely not."
Just now, her tears had been on and off, but once they stopped, she felt a bit better.
Xu Jingxi wiped away the wet hair on her cheeks and kissed her again as compensation, "Schreyer is in the suite next door, he won't let anything happen to you."
Leh Ying obediently nodded.
Xu Jingxi was satisfied, let go, put her back on the pillow, and tucked her in, "Go to sleep by yourself."
After speaking, he left without looking back.
