章 1458: A Killer Move

Lu Xingzhi was messaging someone while holding his phone. When he realized Jiang Yao was sleeping, he sent one last text before falling asleep with her.

Jiang Yao cuddled close to Lu Xingzhi and promptly fell into a deep sleep. Lu Xingzhi's fingers touched her hair softly as if he were soothing a child to sleep.

Even though Jiang Yao had fallen asleep, Lu Xingzhi was not sleepy until after midnight. He was still unable to sleep. He still saw those intense scenes when he closed his eyes.

He forced himself to sleep, but he was startled awake again and again. That emotion kept him awake. He glanced at the person sleeping sweetly next to him; she was breathing shallowly. He even reached out to touch Jiang Yao's face to feel her breathing and heartbeat before he hid and locked that emotion away.

The night was long, and it was unavoidable.

His racing heart began to calm down when he stared at her sleeping face and listened to her breathing.
