After dinner, Xu Jiamu washed the dishes. When he came out of the kitchen, Song Xiangsi was on the sofa, setting the blankets.
Hearing footsteps, she turned to look at him. She tossed the pillow back onto the sofa before walking towards the room that she had slept in when she was young. After pushing open the door, she turned to Xu Jiamu. "You can sleep in this room, I've changed the sheets."
Xu Jiamu straightened. He glanced at the room then back at the sofa, understanding what she meant. Without hesitation, he said, "I'll sleep on the sofa."
"You must be tired from driving the entire day..."
Song Xiangsi tried to argue but he took large strides to the sofa and lied down.
She stared at him for a long while. "Thank you."
Xu Jiamu nodded. "You're welcome."
She stood at the entrance of her room for a long while. "Goodnight," she said before closing the door lightly.
