"Oh, right... Sorry about that."
As the room fell into silence, Xiaoyun's eyelid began slowly closing on itself as drowsiness settled in.
"Honey... You awake?"
Seeing Xiaoyun not responding, Leyan carefully rinsed Xiaoyun's hair without waking him up, then dried him up with a towel before carrying him to the bed.
"I guess I have to surprise him after he wakes up..." Leyan murmured as she watched Xiaoyun sleeping peacefully on the bed.

When Xiaoyun opened his eyes, it was already near nighttime as the sunlight was dimming down.
With a small turn to the right, the clock was pointed at six o'clock.
"Damn... I really slept through the entire evening."
After getting out of bed, Xiaoyun went to the bathroom to freshen himself up before going downstairs.
But as he stepped down to the living room, Leyan was alone on the sofa, reading a book that had a blank cover.
