He silently tugged at the corner of his lips, slowly sat up, and noticed a necklace had fallen beside the pillow.
It was the one he had broken last night.
Xu Ji picked up the necklace and chuckled softly.
The little girl has grown up, hasn't she?
...
Qin Shuang slept until the morning before waking up.
She opened her eyes, first staring at the ceiling for a while before realizing she was at home.
So last night... it was He Zhiyao who had brought her back.
Memories slowly started coming back; some fragments Qin Shuang could no longer recall clearly, but she vividly remembered cursing He Zhiyao for being a big liar who didn't stick to their agreement and the incident in the middle of the night when her stomach ached as her period suddenly started…
Qin Shuang blinked lightly.
Then closed her eyes again.
It was a dream, right?
This was all a dream, right?
Moments later, she irritably grabbed her hair, wanting to bang her head against the wall until she was unconscious.
