"He didn't answer. If you want to know what's going on in his mind, you'll have to ask him yourself."

I was too lazy to ask him, "So, did Sang Shixi leave?"

"Yes." I lay down on the bed, and he lay down beside me, pulling me into his embrace.

I closed my eyes, pretending to sleep, but I just couldn't fall asleep.

Sang Qi's breathing was steady. I didn't know if he was really asleep; he was always good at pretending.

I turned my body to face the wall, gazing at a mottled shadow on the wall cast by the moonlight.

Sang Qi moved his hand that was resting on my shoulder lightly, and his voice came from behind my head.

He hadn't fallen asleep either, "Xia Zhi."

He called my name, and I hummed softly in response, "Yes, alive and kicking!"
