But... the time should be almost here.
Ming Mei sat for a while and lay back down. It's always hard for someone who wakes up in the middle of the night to fall asleep again.
At 5 o'clock, Kang Chen returned.
Ming Mei turned to her side and reached out to turn on the bedside switch, "You're back."
Kang Chen was undressing. Hearing Ming Mei's voice, he turned, "Did I wake you up?"
Ming Mei sat up, hugging the quilt as she watched him, "No, I just went to the bathroom and lay back down, haven't fallen asleep yet."
Kang Chen understood in his heart that Ming Mei was probably worried about him, waking in the middle of the night and still not able to sleep.
He still made Ming Mei worry.
He asked Ming Mei, "Want some water?"
"Sure, I'm a bit thirsty, just didn't feel like getting it earlier."
Kang Chen changed into pajamas and poured a cup of hot water, holding it to warm his hands.
