At eight in the evening, the sound of thunder rang out from the cloudy skies which had prevailed for the entire day. The pitter-patter sound of raindrops was heard as they rained upon the windows.
The rain got heavier. At nine in the evening, the intense sound of rain outside was louder than Cheng Weiwan's voice as she read Cheng Han the story.
Cheng Han's fever hadn't completely disappeared. After dinner, the nurse came in and gave him two pills to take. Soon after he cuddled in Cheng Weiwan's embrace, he fell asleep, snoring at the sound of Cheng Weiwan's gentle voice.
At about half-past nine, Cheng Han was fast asleep.
Cheng Weiwan stopped reading and stared at Cheng Han's little face for a while as he slept soundly. Then she transferred him into the bed and carefully pulled the covers over him.
An entire day passed and Cheng Han was now asleep. Cheng Weiwan knew she should leave.
