Sidestory 056 I'm moved, but I can never move you (Second Update)

Lei Qian awoke to find herself back at Wan Quan's previous home.

She was alone in Wan Quan's bed, observing the somewhat empty room.

The room was still littered with Wan Quan's things, a sad reminder of what once was.

She got out of bed.

Upon opening the bedroom door, she found Mu Cidian sitting on the couch.

He hadn't slept; just sitting there.

She felt a twinge of heartache.

In recent days, Mu Cidian seemed to have suddenly become thinner and his beard had grown, giving him a haggard look.

She silently went over to him, "I'm sorry, I fell asleep."

Mu Cidian gave her a glance, "You've been working hard these past few days."

"I'm fine, but you... you need to rest. You haven't slept since Auntie passed away... You can't keep going like this."

Mu Cidian didn't respond.

He said, "I made some porridge, you can eat some if you're hungry. I need to go out for a bit."

"Mu Cidian." Lei Qian stopped him.

Mu Cidian looked at her.
