When Xiao Lijin hung up the phone, it was almost eleven o'clock. By the time he returned to the room, Bai Qingzhu was already lying down and hadn't turned her body. Xiao Lijin guessed she might have already fallen asleep.
Ever since Bai Qingzhu got pregnant, she usually went to bed early. However, Xiao Lijin had been particularly busy these days, so that he could make some time to take care of her properly in the coming days.
He lay down and held her in his arms, quickly and deeply drifting into sleep.
Bai Qingzhu opened her eyes, glanced at the man who was already breathing evenly, then slowly moved away from him and left the house.
An hour later, Dongfang Ling received a call from Bai Qingzhu, who had sneaked out of the house behind Leng Shaoze's back.
Seeing her, Dongfang Ling yawned loudly, "Qingzhu, what are you doing up and about at this late hour?"
"I can't sleep."
