The trio chatted leisurely as they quickly returned to Jiang Family Manor.
The brothers got off at their alley and walked home carrying the little Bichon Frise.
When Jiang Tao got home, it was already 12:48 in the middle of the night.
He tiptoed inside, changed his clothes, and went back to bed to sleep.
Xu Li probably mistook Jiang Tao's blanket for him, as her long, fair legs were wrapped tightly around it.
Jiang Tao didn't want to move too much and had to tug for a while to free himself.
He tucked himself in and lay on the pillow, allowing his mind to drift off, and fell asleep in less than five minutes.
The next morning.
Jiang Tao, as usual, slept until he naturally woke up.
When he opened his eyes, he was the only one left on the double bed.
Xu Li had already placed the clothes he needed to wear for the day at the bedside.
The top was a faux two-piece black knit sweater, and the bottom a pair of black, slightly casual fleece-lined pants.
