章 923: Unfulfilled promises

Jin tossed and turned on his couch but couldn't get sleep no matter what. He laid on his back staring at the ceiling.

This is not a big deal really. Stop overthinking…

He placed his hand over his forehead, releasing a tired sigh. From between his fingers, he peeked at Shui. He thought she was soundly sleeping by now, but he noticed some movements from her side. Her legs seemed to constantly fidget inside the blanket as if she felt uncomfortable somewhere.

Jin blinked and quietly stood up. He walked towards her slowly and scanned her from top to bottom. Upon closer look, he also heard some soft distressed murmurs and mumbling from her lips. A light layer of sweat had formed on her forehead.

"Shui?" He whispered.

She made a muffled sound and moved restlessly. Jin sat on the edge of the bed near her and gently shook her arm this time. "Shui."

Seeing her tremble, he quickly placed his hand on her forehead.
