Lin Yan had spent a whole night in the hospital, feeling sticky and almost pickled by the smell of disinfectant.
She forced herself awake for a hot shower, and by the time she returned, Lu Chenyuan had fallen asleep.
Lu Chenyuan, who was so particular about cleanliness, always changed into home clothes before lying on the bed every time he came home.
This time he hadn't even changed out of his outside clothes.
Lin Yan, feeling heartache, caressed his face, leaned over to gently kiss him, and then pulled up the blanket to embrace Lu Chenyuan.
All her complaints evaporated into thin air.
Being together meant making concessions to each other. Nobody's perfect. Lu Chenyuan stood her up without a word.
Lin Yan could only comfort herself with the excuse that she was too busy and had forgotten.
She was awakened by the ring of a phone.
Groggy, she opened her eyes to see that it was still bright outside; she had no idea what time it was.
Had she slept for a whole day and night?
