Ye You's gaze was gentle and affectionate, using his soft claw to help Qin Sisi close her eyes, whispering, "Now, sleep well."
Qin Sisi curved the corner of her lips. She obediently kept her eyes closed, reaching out to hold Ye You's paw, which was resting over her eyes. She fondled the soft fur on it as she gradually drifted off to dreamland.
Ye You looked at the childlike Qin Sisi, a little amused, but he neither had the heart nor the will to pull his paw back, so he carefully nestled next to her and lay down.
Ye You exhaled towards the ceiling light, and the light went off instantly, plunging the surroundings into peaceful darkness.
Ye You softly blinked his purple eyes, everything in front of him still exceptionally clear, without being obscured by the darkness. He let out a sigh, pushing down his worries and concerns.
At midnight, Ye You woke Qin Sisi.
Qin Sisi promptly sat up, rubbing her eyes.
With a touch of tenderness, Ye You said, "You've had a hard time."
