Chapter 16: Saving Face
A night passed without word, and Cheng Su thought she'd be unable to sleep with a "stranger" beside her, but that wasn't the case; she fell asleep and when she awoke, the sky was already light.
Touching the space next to her, she found it cool and couldn't help sitting up.
Had he risen so early? Or had he already left?
Cheng Su's brows furrowed slightly, feeling somewhat melancholy for some reason.
It was strange; she wasn't familiar with Qi Taiguo, even though they were legally husband and wife. To her, he was still a stranger. Yet, she had managed to sleep peacefully through the night.
Could it be because it's someone else's body with her memories inherited?
As Cheng Su pondered wildly, she heard voices outside the room, seemingly Mother Qi and Qi Taiguo. Her heart jolted, and she hurriedly got dressed.
