Ye Xi's phone by her pillow vibrated.
She turned over to bring it closer to her eyes; it was a message from Lu Lingxiao.
The message contained just two words: "Come here."
Ye Xi glanced back at her grandmother, who was sound asleep.
Just as she was preparing to get up, she suddenly remembered the incident from earlier and hesitated.
She replied to Lu Lingxiao: "Is something the matter?"
Lu Lingxiao: "The electric fan stopped working."
This was the countryside; there was no air conditioning. The only old electric fan in the house had been moved to Lu Lingxiao's room by Grandma Ye.
Ye Xi had no choice but to get up and walk to the door of the next room.
She knocked gently and asked, "May I come in?"
Lu Lingxiao's steady voice came from inside: "Hmm."
As Ye Xi opened the door, she saw an uncommon sight of Lu Lingxiao.
He was wearing a dark orchid bathrobe, specially delivered by Xiao Qi.
His hair was still wet, indicating he had just finished bathing.
