Xiao Jinyan: "..." Is that even possible?
"Maybe he's already asleep. I just have to be quick."
Shen Chuwei said, "That won't do. Better safe than sorry. In unfamiliar territory, it's best to be cautious."
Of course, Xiao Jinyan understood the logic, but every time he left, little Jiu would be in such a deep sleep that being suddenly woken up might make her irritable...
This night, Xiao Jinyan still did not sleep well, but it was much better compared to the previous days.
Before the first sign of dawn, Xiao Jinyan woke up and began to dress. Once finished, he woke her up.
Shen Chuwei had been sleeping soundly, startled for a good while before she realized what was happening.
She glanced outside the window, pitch black.
"You're leaving so early?"
Xiao Jinyan said, "It's not early anymore."
Shen Chuwei got up, and Xiao Jinyan brought her an outer garment to wear. The night breeze was cool.
After getting dressed, Xiao Jinyan opened the door ready to step out.
