"Alright, I'm off to bed," said Yang Xuehua as she too departed.
Xia Xiao entered the room and said to Yan Hao, "Hurry over, your brother-in-law and my mom are waiting for you outside. Come back here tomorrow morning."
Yan Hao shook his head, "Big sister, I can just stay next door in the spare dorm. If I'm too far away, I'll be worried."
Since Yan Hao said this, Xia Xiao obliged, and went outside to inform Zheng Xianghong and Gao Jiaxing.
Zheng Xianghong and Gao Jiaxing understood Yan Hao's feelings, so they didn't say much and left.
Yan Hao went to the neighboring dorm of the male educated youth to stay, while Xia Xiao stayed back to look after Xia Jing and her niece, who were both asleep. Xia Xiao, too, was very tired. After closing the door, she first went into the space.
Shitou said, "You're not planning to sleep in here, are you? What if your sister wakes up and can't find you?"
