บท 1517: Protection

"Go to sleep. We'll talk when you wake up." Lu Xingzhi patted Jiang Yao's back gently as if he was comforting a child.

Jiang Yao hugged Lu Xingzhi like a koala. Her face was buried in his arms, but she did not feel sleepy at all.

How could she possibly fall asleep? When she thought about how he would return to Province A in the afternoon, and the two of them would not see each other for half a year, she did not feel sleepy at all.

Jiang Yao did not hear Lu Xingzhi's voice as she raised her head to look at him. "Are you sleepy?"

The sun had reached the window very early in the morning. Jiang Yao's gaze passed Lu Xingzhi's profile and landed on the chirping sparrows outside the window. She secretly envied the sparrows for being so lively in all four seasons.

Lu Xingzhi was not sleepy; he did not know how to comfort Jiang Yao.

She hugged him tightly like a koala, unwilling to let go. It was clear how reluctant she was to part with him.
