Over the past few days, Qin Lianyi had been continuously emphasizing her fear of light, so she stayed indoors without going out. The thick curtains in the room blocked out the sunlight, causing the room to be perpetually dim.
At night, they couldn't turn on very bright lights, so the light inside the room remained dim as well.
She had successfully hidden in this gloomy environment all this time, pretending to be An Xiaomian.
Shangguan Xiu came to see her every day, staying by her side.
But he had never done anything intimate with her.
That day, Shangguan Xiu arrived again.
Yes, that's right, Shangguan Xiu didn't share a room with Qin Lianyi, but stayed in a different one. He would spend a few hours each day here with her; the rest of the time, he seemed to be busy with other things.
Before Shangguan Xiu even pushed the door open, Qin Lianyi heard his footsteps outside, so she immediately lay down and feigned sleep.
