Don't close your eyes [END WORLD 2]
Bai Mi is a very reluctant nurse, but she keeps an eye on how Xi Zirui's back is healing, and applies the ointment herself, much to her own consternation and Xi Zirui's amusement.
Han Yu's nightly visits grow shorter. According to him Su Xueyi is suspicious of how quiet both of them have been.
They won't remain quiet for long, though.
Three days after he wakes up Bai Mi tells him they're going to be on the move that night.
"How exactly are you going to take me out of here?" he asks, as she flits around the room fitting robes and jewelry into knapsacks.
"You're going to be kidnapped, obviously," she says, running her hands through her artfully coiffed hair and pulling out a few strands.
"How unfortunate for me," he says, struggling to get up from the bed and put on some coarse servant's robes.
"Even more so for me," Bai Mi says, and punches herself in the eye as Xi Zirui watches, slack-jawed.
