In the dead of night, Luo Suyun's room was filled with nothing but the constant ticking of the quartz clock.
Time seemed to be passing incredibly slowly, as both Luo Suyun and Shu Lulu, with the same thought in mind, waited for the other to fall asleep first.
However, because of the previous exchange in unison, neither of them tried to probe again; they just waited silently.
Waiting and waiting, who knows how much time had passed, Shu Lulu finally couldn't hold on any longer. Her eyelids were battling against each other, and before she knew it, she had fallen asleep before Luo Suyun.
Hearing her daughter's even breathing, Luo Suyun waited another minute or two, then tentatively called out softly, "Lulu?"
There was no response.
Luo Suyun called softly a few more times, and since Shu Lulu neither responded nor did her breathing change, Luo Suyun let out a sigh of relief. Her daughter was indeed asleep, and quite soundly at that.
