"Miss, Miss?"
The soft call by her ear made Shen Qingxi blearily open her eyes, and it took her a good while to remember that she had apparently fallen asleep in the study.
Saliva had pooled all over the desk.
I only looked for three minutes… Physics is terrifying like that!
Shen Qingxi looked at the textbook soaked with saliva on the desk with a residual fright.
"What time is it now, Auntie Yun?"
"It's half past one in the morning, Miss. You should go back to your room to sleep,"
suggested the maid who had woken her up kindly.
"No, I had agreed to stay up all night today, I just rested for a bit, yes, just rested!"
Shen Qingxi said softly while rubbing her sore eyes, "Go make me a cup of coffee, no milk, no sugar... never mind, add some sugar. Where is Senior Sister Cheng?"
"Which Senior Sister Cheng?"
"Ah... no, never mind, I was confused from sleep. Just go make that coffee."
