After a while, she heard the sound of steady breathing behind her, and finally let out a sigh of relief.
Actually, she was deceiving him. She had already had it when she first arrived at Yaoshan, and it had already cleared up two days ago.
Unexpectedly, Uncle did not suspect a thing.
If this lie were exposed, Xia Yinian didn't know what kind of punishment she would face.
So, it's better to go to sleep early.
Telling a lie to Uncle isn't something she dares to do often.
And more importantly, how hard it is to deceive this man, Xia Yinian is well aware of.
This time, she actually succeeded. Was it because he truly cares about her that he became foolish?
Lying quietly in his embrace, she went over the words he had said tonight in her head, and Xia Yinian's breathing gradually became even.
Not long after she fell asleep, Gu Beicheng gently turned her over to face him.
Realizing she wakes easily, he truly couldn't bear to leave her alone.
