Xie Ning slept for a while, and woke up in the middle to drink a few sips of water. Sleeping didn't seem to alleviate her fatigue, and she always felt like a part of her perception was awake. She could hear people moving around, but she was too tired to open her eyes.

Her body felt uncomfortable, and she was not sleeping in a familiar place. In her half-dream state, she often reached out to touch her belly, as if she couldn't confirm that the baby was still attached to her womb without doing so.

When she woke up again, she felt like it should be dawn. However, the curtains were thick, and she couldn't see anything. "Qinghe?"

Qinghe had been guarding by her side all night, afraid to close her eyes because Xie Ning couldn't sleep soundly. When she heard Xie Ning calling her from behind the curtain, she quickly lifted it and whispered, "Lady, are you awake?"
