She moved slightly.
Gu Jiangnian's hand on her waist loosened slightly.
Before she could make any move, it tightened again.
Jiang Muwan reached out to push him; her soft voice sounded from in front of him, brushing past the man's ear: "I need to use the bathroom."
Even in his sleep, he seemed to be aware, as the hand on her waist slightly lifted, turned over, resting on his eyelids.
Jiang Muwan knew, he was awake.
His consciousness was awake, but his thoughts hadn't fully returned.
Jiang Muwan groggily got out of bed, ready to go barefoot to the bathroom when the man beside her raspily reminded: "Put on shoes."
"Mhm," she obediently agreed.
It was rare, as Gu Jiangnian would say, for her to be so obedient.
Mrs. Gu sluggishly found her way to the bathroom, used the toilet, and came back out.
Then, she climbed back into bed, still groggy.
When she lifted the covers to lie back down, his hand that had been resting on his eyelids slowly lowered.
