At night, the villa had already quieted down. Everyone quickly fell asleep because they were too tired. Gu Zichen was still so alert, constantly covering Niannian with the quilt, sleeping very little himself. After tucking Niannian's little feet into the blanket once again, he turned to look at Qiao Xiguan sleeping peacefully on his other side, watching her serene appearance.
"Please don't cry for me anymore, okay?" Gu Zichen said softly, whispering in her ear, "I love seeing you smile; it's very beautiful."
Qiao Xiguan was sleeping soundly. Gu Zichen kissed her forehead, "Goodnight, my lover."
Goodnight.
