She’s Here Again

"You can't go back to sleep?" Xuanyuan Mo Ze embraced her with his chin against her hair. 

"I'm already awake, so I can't go back to sleep. I have to check on Old Tan today and take a look at the Heavenly Pill Tower." She leaned into his arms and asked, "When are you going to leave?"

"In a few days!" He felt uneasy about leaving her now.

"I'm fine here, you don't have to worry. Your master should have been waiting for a long time. Now that the Heavenly Pill Tower is open and everything is getting settled, it's not a problem whether you're here or not." 

Hearing her reply, Xuanyuan Mo Ze asked, "You just want me to leave? After going out this time, I don't know when I will be back. I have a hunch that I won't return quickly." If things were easy to handle, his master would not say that he was uncertain.
