The deep and mysterious eyes, at this moment, had an unfathomable gaze, like the midnight sea, silent, soundless, yet exuding an indescribable dangerous depth.
"Demon?"
Tian Tian tightened her grip, her hand suddenly grew warm as Bai Chenyao held it, followed by Bai Chenyao's deep and rich voice in her ear.
"What kind of demon scares you like this?"
Tian Tian's face turned even more unsightly when she thought of Shen Tiancheng's humiliation in her dream.
But how could she bring herself to tell Bai Chenyao about such things?
"It was too dark to see clearly, but... but I just felt... it felt eerie, very frightening!"
Bai Chenyao did not ask further, only giving her a meaningful look, gently holding her hand, pulling her into his embrace.
"I'll hold you while you sleep!"
"Mm!"
Leaning into Bai Chenyao's firm chest, Tian Tian closed her eyes.
There was still a faint sweat because of the nightmare, but nestled in Bai Chenyao's embrace, she didn't even want to move.
