When Xiao Yu woke up, Gong Ting was no longer in the room. She propped herself up and sat, staring blankly ahead.
Last night, apart from holding her all night, Gong Ting didn't do anything else to her. At first, she was fearful, afraid he was waiting for her to relax before suddenly attacking, leaving her defenseless.
But later, as she heard his steady breathing, she realized he truly didn't intend to do anything with her.
In the middle of the night, she was awakened by his murmurs. He kept calling out Sister Ning's name, each word carrying indescribable anguish and suffering, which made her heart ache.
She wanted to wake him but didn't dare. Instead, she listened to him call out all night. Only when dawn was near did she fall asleep.
