Sheng Yize paused a little, then gave her head a knock with his knuckles. "Don't be silly."

"You're all I have. Can you promise not to leave me?" she murmured in a monotonous tone. Sheng Yize's heart sank and he panicked.

"Do you care about me?"

"Yes."

"Then don't leave me…"

"Alright."

"Pinky swear…" She stuck out her pinky. Sheng Yize hooked his with hers, made the swear, then tucked her in. "Now, go to sleep."
