That forced gaze still fell on her for a moment.

Xia Chuwei didn't know what he could see through the vast darkness.

But she didn't open her eyes or move, as if she was really asleep.

I don’t know how long it took, just when Xia Chuwei was about to fall asleep, Huo Yunting finally left.

Xia Chuwei originally thought that Huo Yunting might not be back.

While sleeping in a daze, Xia Chuwei heard the sound of opening the door and footsteps.

Not long after, the other side of the bed sank slightly.

After a while, Xia Chuwei was taken into the familiar embrace.

The smell of disinfectant floats in the air, pungent and unpleasant, making people nauseate and disgusted, and even dispels her sleepiness.

Xia Chuwei conditioned and broke free from the man's arms.

The man's movements were paused.

Then, his voice rang in the dim air.

"woke up?"

"Yes." Xia Chuwei moved to the other side of the bed and whispered: "The disinfectant smell on your body is too strong, and it smells uncomfortable."

After a few seconds of silence, Huo Yunting said, "I'll go take a shower."

Then he got out of bed and walked into the bathroom.

By the time Huo Yunting finished taking a shower, Xia Chuwei was already asleep again.

He returned to the bed and took Xia Chuwei into his arms.

Xia Chuwei struggled gently for a few times, then leaned against Huo Yunting's arms and fell asleep.

......

Silver light shook through the sky, and several lightning flashed across the sky, accompanied by a loud thunder.

"Boom!"

Xia Chuwei suddenly opened her eyes.

The heavy rain poured down and fell on the transparent glass windows, making a dull sound.

The water droplets are like drops of tears, drawing long traces of water.

Sitting up from the bed, Xia Chuwei subconsciously looked to her side.

Her side was empty, there was no one, and she was still the same as before she went to bed.

Xia Chuwei took a look at the time.

It was 1:00,300 a.m.

Huo Yunting is... not back yet?

After rubbing the painful eyebrows, Xia Chuwei closed the book that fell on the bed and placed it on the bedside table.

Before she fell asleep, she was reading a book.

Later, I fell asleep for some reason until I was awakened by the thunder.

Xia Chuwei walked to the window and looked at the rain outside the window.

The cold and gloomy rainy night is like a black abyss, without any light coming in.

Only the lightning that occasionally passes through the horizon is the only light in this world.

Xia Chuwei took her phone over and found that the screen was empty, with no text messages or phone calls.

Xia Chuwei stood in front of the window and looked blankly for a long time. Then she seemed to have thought of something and opened the text message interface.

The sending time of the text message was 5:00 yesterday evening.

"Dinner doesn't have to wait for me."

Xia Chuwei's fingers moved lightly, and the information she and Huo Yunting discovered jumped into sight one by one.

This information is all the conversation between her and Huo Yunting in recent times.

It was probably the message that they didn’t come back to have a meal and didn’t have to wait for him to come back and let her go to bed early, and the conversation was very short.

Xia Chuwei soon reached an earlier time.

At that time, nothing happened to Ye Lanxue.

Compared to the brief conversations in recent times, the previous conversations are much richer.

Some of her reminded him to eat on time, and some of her were tormented by him at night. She slept until very late the next day, and he sent a message asking the servant to keep his breakfast.

There are even some chats that are not nutritious.

Looking at the information, Xia Chuwei raised a curve on the corner of her lips, but there was no smile in her eyes.

Xia Chuwei thought about it and sent a message.

"Are you still busy?"

In fact, during the period when Ye Lanxue was injured, except for the first night, Huo Yunting did not return all night, and he would come back every day after that.
