Gong Zhan Woke Up

Su Shen seemed to have realized the issue at hand. He didn't mind going into battle with injuries, after all, even if he couldn't use his physical strength, his hands were enough to take care of her. But she was tired, and he couldn't bear to torment her further.

After a swallow, Su Shen reluctantly let go of Gu Zi, but still supported her waist, allowing her to sit on his lap. He gently agreed, "Alright, I won't hold you so tightly. You're tired too, shall we rest for a while?"

Only when Gu Zi was asked this did she notice that her eyelids were fighting to stay open. She was indeed a bit sleepy. She replied, "Okay."

Su Shen planted a kiss on her forehead, pulling her into the crook of his strong arm. His chin rested on top of her head, allowing her to sleep nestled against him.
