Because he had taken advantage of her, Wen Ran pinned Shen Wu to the bed and gave him a beating. Shen Wu, acting coy, could only call out, "Ranran, take it easy, it really hurts," but didn't retaliate at all.
However, in the end, Wen Ran did not chase him out of her room, worried that he, who feared the cold, might freeze to death.
After the playful scuffle, night had fallen, and Shen Wu, without a care in the world, fell asleep.
Wen Ran carefully got off the bed, tucked his quilt more securely around him, and added more coal to the fire in the room. Although the room was now excessively warm, she felt a bit hot, yet he slept soundly without feeling the heat at all.
Wen Ran whispered softly, "Shen Jiaojiao, I'll be back soon."
She bent down and kissed his face, then tiptoed out of the room.
