The school infirmary bed isn't very big, but fortunately, Xiyan is quite petite.
Curled up in his arms, her small head resting on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat.
At this moment, it feels like even the air has turned sweet.
It's a feeling that's been missing for a long time.
In the past, Ou Jue used to hold her like this while sleeping.
But ever since Ou Jue's second personality awoke, such intimate gestures have disappeared.
Xiyan felt her heartbeat accelerating bit by bit.
Unsure if Ou Jue could hear it,
but to her, it sounded deafening.
"Ou Jue..."
His face expressionless, "Are you going to sleep or not?"
"You can't leave..."
Feeling the girl nestled in his arms like a kitten, Ou Jue responded softly, "Hmm."
Time passed by, minute by minute.
Listening to the girl's even breathing from his arms.
Ou Jue didn't know what was happening to him...
How inexplicably he'd ended up in this situation.
