Afterward, the man's breathing evened out as if he had fallen asleep.
Remarkably quick...
Listening to his breaths, Su Xingyue froze for a moment.
It was only after a while that she lowered her head to look at him.
Only then did she realize how exhausted the man appeared.
He probably hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Thinking this, she suddenly felt a surge of pity for him.
She raised her hand, her palm resting on the back of his head, gently stroking in a soothing manner.
At that moment... the man reacted, lifting his face and shifting his weight off her briskly.
The annoyance was evident on his handsome face.
Damn, he had actually been lying on top of her.
The scent of her was too comforting, which is why he, who had not shut his eyes for days, suddenly felt an irresistible sleepiness.
...
Seeing this, Su Xingyue paused, then obediently snuggled against his firm chest.
"Nan Yuling, sleep..." she said softly.
