章 1837: I Don't Want To

"She might be tired and hungry." A servant walked out of the kitchen. "There's supper in the kitchen. Why don't you wake her up to have some?"

"No need. You eat first, Sister, and leave some in the kitchen fridge. She might wake up in the middle of the night because she's hungry. I'll warm it up for her then." Lu Xingzhi carried her upstairs. "We'll rest for now. You and Auntie should rest early after supper."

"I know, I know. I'm your sister. There's no need for you to nag me," Lu Yuqing replied with a smile. Then, she watched Lu Xingzhi carry Jiang Yao upstairs.

Jiang Yao woke up when Lu Xingzhi placed her on the bed. When she let go of the box and turned around, Lu Xingzhi asked, "Do you want to take a shower before sleeping?"

Jiang Yao shook her head. "I don't want to."

She immediately fell asleep the second after she answered him.

She was sleeping soundly, and Lu Xingzhi's heart ached even more.
