Capítulo 1022: Something Happened

Xia He looked up and saw that the lights in Qiao Mei's bedroom were still switched on. She got out of bed and put on a padded cotton jacket. Without stopping to put on her socks, she simply put on her slippers and stumbled out, almost falling over on her way.

"Qiao Mei, are you asleep yet?" Xia He stood at the door and asked in a cautious manner.

"No, I'm not. Come in quickly. Why are you panting? Did you get chased by a dog?" Qiao Mei sat by the bed and asked Xia He, who stood at the door and looked in a sorry state.

"I… I just… I…" Xia He stammered, unable to speak properly. In the end, she mustered her courage and said to Qiao Mei, "Can I sleep over in your room?"

From when she was young, she did not allow Xu Lan to sleep with her for even one night. She had always slept alone. After she got married, she and Kong Lu did not spend a lot of time together. In a sense, she had always been alone.
