It was as if he feared someone else might come to disturb Song Lili; Wen Xun chose to stay in the room and not go out.
While Lili was asleep, he kept watch by her side.
Having just finished his tutoring session, Wen Xun had homework to complete, so he sat down alone in the side hall, quietly working on it.
The setting sun sank, casting a golden glow through the window.
Wen Nian pushed the door open and came in, his voice very soft, originally afraid of awakening the resting Lili. When he came in, he found Lili was actually awake, whereas it was Wen Xun in the side hall who had fallen asleep on the desk.
Song Lili leaned on the bed, gesturing towards the side hall, and Wen Nian nodded, treading lightly as he approached the bed.
"I heard from Uncle Wei that my mom came over?"
"Yes, to see the child," Song Lili said indifferently.
"Did you... have a conflict?"
