Cotton Candy, sprawling on Chu Nanxi's slippers, saw her wake up and promptly stretched its little front paws in a lazy stretch before running over to try and jump onto the bed.
However, it was still too small, and its paws could only scratch the bedsheet.
"Shh!"
Swinging her legs off the bed, Chu Nanxi picked up the little guy into her arms and gently stroked its soft back fur, her gaze lingering on Li Hannian.
Her eyes fell on the gauze on his arm, and she gently bit her lower lip.
Last night he had just returned from Europe, exhausted from travel, and despite the rain, he had gotten injured while helping her search for the dog, yet he took care of her all night.
Buzz—
The cell phone vibrated.
Chu Nanxi turned around and dashed to the bedside table, grabbing for her phone.
No, that's not right!
The phone screen was dark; it was not her phone that was ringing.
That sound...
She turned to look and saw Li Hannian on the bed, frowning as he turned off his phone alarm.
