The night deepened. Xiaoxiao didn't get much sleep last night and was worried he wouldn't eat during the day, so she didn't rest either. Now, she was feeling a bit drowsy.
Gu Moming saw her yawn and said after a while, "Go to the accompanying bed; I need the chair for my feet."
Xiaoxiao suddenly snapped awake. She got up from the stool, placed the stool where he could rest his feet, and then went to the bathroom before sitting on the accompanying bed.
She washed her face but couldn't hold off sleep for long, slowly lying down on the bed, leaning on the pillow to watch TV.
Gu Moming glanced at her, picked up the remote, and lowered the TV volume. When he checked again shortly after, she was already asleep.
Her small mouth slightly open, there was a gentle snoring sound—she must be utterly exhausted by now?
Seeing her curled up with the blanket folded at the foot of the bed, and himself unable to move,
he thought for a moment and then pressed the bedside call button.
