At 11 P.M., Ye Sihan still hadn't come to her rental room.
Tang Yu's anticipation wasn't as strong and joyful as before.
Ye Sihan's "unloving" words and actions had deeply hurt her; if she allowed herself to feel joy again, she would be too presumptuous.
Just as Ye Yuli had said, it was better to just focus on the children.
Before falling asleep, Tang Yu tried to reassure herself with a vigilance that she would slowly forget.
Hadn't she once loved Ye Yuli so much, and later lost all romantic feelings for him?
She knew she had to learn when to withdraw and to cut losses in time; then it wouldn't matter...
Although Tang Yu's body was tormented and in need of rest, her heart's deep pain made her sleep restless.
Tossing and turning.
The hot water bottle in the bed had lost its warmth by the end.
So, before dawn, she woke up.
She got up and drank some water, the room was cold, and then she crawled back into bed, her eyelids sore and uncomfortable.
