It was effortless to take the key, go upstairs, and open the door.
Xing Chen’s actions weren’t particularly gentle because being locked outside earlier had left him somewhat displeased.
It would be best to make some noise, to let the woman inside know.
When Xing Chen pushed the door open and entered, he found the room eerily quiet.
His well-defined brows furrowed slightly as he strode in, only to see Ran Xiangsi leaning against the edge of the bed, fast asleep.
Indeed, she had abandoned the soft bed, her body slouched on the carpet, head resting against the bed edge, sleeping soundly. The latest_epɪ_sodes are on_the ɴo(v)elFɪre.ɴet
Xing Chen was stunned for a moment, then he understood.
The injury on her head hadn’t healed, making it uncomfortable for her to sleep lying down.
But sleeping in such a position, if she didn’t catch a cold while playing with water, she would definitely catch one tonight.
He took two steps forward, standing in front of her like a noble emperor, his gaze looking down at her.
The bright light accentuated her delicate skin like snow, and her three thousand strands of black hair contrasted sharply with the whiteness, stirring a strange flutter in his heart.
Xing Chen bent down, his movements unconsciously gentle, lifting her onto the spacious bed and settling her in.
He stared at Ran Xiangsi for a long time with his dark, eagle-like eyes, as if making a firm decision, then stood up and turned around.
He left the bedroom that had been occupied.
Though he really wanted to, but... she still had an injury on her head.
Besides, Ran Xiangsi, we have a long time ahead of us.
The night air was slightly cool.
This time, Ran Xiangsi had a rare, solid sleep.
Upon waking, the first thing she saw was the room filled with sunlight.
Ran Xiangsi rubbed her eyes, slowly sat up in bed, and looked around drowsily, mumbling, "Huh? I slept and climbed up myself? This isn’t a good habit... Why do I always like to climb onto Xing Chen’s bed?"
Ran Xiangsi made herself a bit sick with the thought, then lifted the quilt, freshened up, changed her clothes, and went downstairs.
Quite instinctively, she searched for Xing Chen’s figure around the house.
After wandering around and not finding Xing Chen...
She felt a slight disappointment in her heart.
Ran Xiangsi looked around, and then the housekeeper approached.
"Young Madam, it’s already half-past eleven. Would you like breakfast or should I prepare lunch?"
"Lunch!" Ran Xiangsi frowned and said, her routine had always been regular, but due to recent incidents and her bad health, she needed extra sleep!
"Alright, Young Madam, please wait a moment." The housekeeper responded and started towards the kitchen.
Seeing him about to leave, Ran Xiangsi immediately called out, "Um... where did Xing Chen go?"
"Young Master went to the company. If you need to find him, you can call him." The housekeeper added thoughtfully.
"Oh..." Ran Xiangsi nodded somewhat awkwardly.
Why was she looking for Xing Chen... She didn’t have anything to ask him either...
As Ran Xiangsi was momentarily lost in thought, the housekeeper turned and went to the kitchen.
Just as they instructed the kitchen to prepare the meal, they received a phone call.
"Old Wu, I’m back. Is my son home?"
The housekeeper was stunned for a moment, then instantly grew excited and said with great respect, "Old Madam, you’re back? Young Master is at the company, but Young Madam is at home!"
"My daughter-in-law is at home? Good, don’t tell her I’m coming yet, I’ll be home soon!"
