The next morning, Xiqiu woke up at 5 a.m.
She turned over and saw Fourth Master Xiao sleeping behind her. His usually cold and deep eyes were closed, losing their intimidating aura. His high nose and thin lips had a hint of childlike innocence in his sleeping form. She couldn't help but reach out and trace his features, moving slowly from his brows downward...
The courtyard was quiet, even the chirping of birds couldn't be heard. Xiqiu smiled lightly, feeling an unusual sense of peace.
Retracting her hand, she gently placed it on her abdomen. Last night, might it have granted her wish to conceive a little Fourth Master Xiao?
Suddenly, a large hand covered the back of hers. Xiqiu turned her head to see Fourth Master Xiao had already opened his eyes, his long phoenix-like eyes filled with laughter: "Thinking about our child?"
Xiqiu blushed but nodded honestly.
