Sheng Shi closed his eyes but couldn't fall asleep again. He lay quietly for a while, feeling the need to go to the bathroom, so he opened his eyes, lazily lifted his arm, threw off the covers, gently got out of bed, put on his slippers, and headed for the bathroom.
The bathroom door was open. Sheng Shi, with sleepy eyes, walked in, casually and gently shut the door, and lazily made his way to the toilet, lifting the toilet seat.

Gu Lanshan was hiding in the bathroom, holding her breath, listening intently to any sounds from outside.
After a while, when it had become quiet outside, just as she was about to sneak out of the bathroom, she heard footsteps.
Gu Lanshan couldn't tell if the footsteps were Sheng Shi's or Mrs. Sheng's. All she could hear was the sound getting closer, as if approaching the bathroom. In a panic, she looked around and spotted a white shower curtain behind the glass.
