After a long nap, Lin Qian finally woke up at 11:30pm. As soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Li Jin. At first, she was a little shocked. But, she quickly regained her composure.
"Qian Qian..."
"All that matters is that you're OK," Lin Qian said with a raspy voice as she looked at Li Jin. "I want to sleep a little while longer."
Li Jin reached out his hand and held onto Lin Qian's right hand as he tried his best to speak gently, "Sleep. I'll be right here."
Lin Qian gently closed her eyes. However, a moment later, her eyes suddenly flew back open, "I'm not dreaming, am I?"
"Of course not," Li Jin replied as he held onto her hand tightly. "It's my fault for being late again."
"You don't need to say pointless things like this. I know that you didn't have a choice. You should give your parents a phone call, they're really worried about you." After speaking, Lin Qian closed her eyes. This time, she was going to get a good night's rest.
