Kapitel 900: Waiting for A New Day, Or Death (7)

Looking at Li Beinian's sleepy expression, Mu Xichen naturally thought that she must have been too tired from work.

Although he came to that conclusion, he still felt that something was amiss.

At this point, Li Beinian had already buckled herself up. Then, she leaned back on the car seat, her eyes narrowing as sleep came over her.

When Mu Xichen saw this, he reached out to reposition the U-shaped pillow behind her neck.

Initially, he thought that Li Beinian was just lying back to take a rest. But to his surprise, as he repositioned the pillow, he realized that Li Beinian had actually fallen asleep.

He moved in closer and heard her even breathing.

He was so close that the skin on her face was magnified.

Mu Xichen leaned over and touched her face.
