It might have been because the effects of the anesthesia hadn't worn off yet, but that night, after Mu Anran fed Yu Lingqian a bowl of noodles, he obediently fell asleep.
He didn't touch her all night.
Mu Anran breathed a sigh of relief and quietly lay down beside him.

She, herself, seemed to be becoming more dependent on him.
"The Yu Family is too complex for us to provoke,"
Ling Li's anxious and somber voice suddenly echoed deep in her mind.
