The two of them returned to their room each with a heart full of lonely courage, Lu Weixi to the bedroom and Qin Zhiyou to the study, both working in their own spaces as if by tacit agreement. As night fell and hunger set in, they casually cooked some of the dumplings they had made that morning for dinner.
Both their work was somewhat thorny, and it wasn't until late into the night that Lu Weixi finally finished and shut down her computer. She stretched lazily, took a sip of tea, and suddenly remembered something. She quickly got up and headed for the study.
The door to the study was not closed, and as soon as Lu Weixi pushed it open, she saw Qin Zhiyou still looking at his computer. But upon seeing her enter, he smiled and stood up, "Finished with work?"
Just by his tone, Lu Weixi knew, "You finished your work a while ago? Why didn't you go back to rest?"
"It would disturb you," he said simply, his words leaving her incredibly heart-sore.
