After talking for a while, Wen Shaoyuan fell into a drowsy sleep again. In fact, Su Mu was somewhat worried about how Wen Shaoyuan was sleeping so much now and what to do at night, but seeing him so overwhelmingly sleepy, she didn't have the heart to keep him awake and stood by his side for a while. Seeing that he was sleeping soundly reassured her, and she prepared to leave.
Downstairs was very quiet, as the usually busy Auntie Li was nowhere to be seen. Just as Su Mu hesitated whether to go look for her, Chen Huifang came out of the kitchen and smiled faintly at Su Mu:
"Oh, Teacher Su is here too."
Su Mu nodded lightly in greeting: "Where is Auntie Li?"
"She went out to buy some things for the house."
The desire Su Mu had to leave was abruptly put on hold, leaving the ailing Wen Shaoyuan alone with Chen Huifang was something she could not bring herself to do.
