After the commotion, both women were exhausted.
On ordinary nights, Chen Yi would sleep with Yin Tingxue in his arms. But since the female crown was staying overnight for the first time, he contemplated for a moment, then withdrew his hand from Yin Tingxue and placed it around her elder cousin's waist.
Beneath the covers, the tired little fox suddenly felt an empty space at her waist. She groggily turned her head to find that he had turned away and was now lying with his back to her.
Yin Tingxue pursed her lips, lowered her small face, feeling an unfamiliar emptiness at her waist. She wasn't accustomed to it, so she tucked the blanket tighter around herself, wrapped her arms and legs around it, and curled up further.
She was so exhausted from the day that she quickly fell asleep.
The female crown, however, hadn't yet drifted off. Her heart was bleeding as his hand settled on her; she trembled uncontrollably for a long while before calming down.
