Still Can’t Get Used to It

Ning Li woke up a little later than usual. When she arrived at school, the morning session of self-learning class was over.

Lu Huaiyu suggested that she take a day off for a good rest, but she insisted on going to school.

She snuck into class through the backdoor.

When she sat in her seat, He Xiaochen looked at her in shock. "Ning Li?! Didn't you get some sleep last night?"

Her eyes had red veins around the edges, and she looked like she had burned the midnight oil.

Nevertheless, Ning Li shook her head. "I'm fine."

She had not planned to sleep at all, but she fell asleep in the end without even realizing it. It was the first in many years. Even though she only had an hour of sleep, it was the best sleep she had in years.

He Xiaochen felt bad for the girl. She took her water bottle and said, "I'll get you some water. Meanwhile, get some rest."
