Yan Ye: "..."
Yan Ye originally planned to humor her a bit, but seeing her looking all silly, he decided to ignore her instead, ...
After Lian Xinying said what she just did, Yan Ye closed his eyes.
No way to tell if he was truly tired or just deliberately ignoring her.
Feeling lonely and bored after being ignored, Lian Xinying tucked her little head into the crook of his neck and promptly went to sleep.
She soon fell back into a deep slumber, her breathing steady and rhythmic.
After she fell asleep, Yan Ye opened his eyes.
He stretched his long arm toward the bedside table, grabbed his phone, and checked the time. It was 2 a.m.
Still two hours left to sleep.
After setting an alarm, he put down the phone and quickly drifted off as well.
At 4 a.m., the alarm went off.
When Yan Ye heard the alarm, he wasn't keen on getting up. He assumed Lian Xinying might get up first to turn it off, but she didn't.
She lay motionless next to him, as if completely unaware.
