As usual, Xie Xuanchen went back to bed first, and then Mu Mingtang went behind the screen to get changed. It was the same as yesterday, he was slowly getting used to it and he wasn’t as embarrassed as he first was when he heard the shuffling of her clothes. After Mu Mingtang changed into snow white undergarments, she blew out the candle and slowly fumbled her way back.
After Mu Mingtang climbed onto the bed, she tucked herself under the blanket in the dark. As she laid on the bed, she could hear the person next to her breathing, and she felt a strange sense of calmness.
In this huge manor, with plenty of servants and was grand as ever, she could only trust this person beside her. As they lied together at this moment, it felt like they were dependent on each other to live on.
Mu Mingtang knew that her thinking was extremely outdated. She didn’t know if she was too exhausted or had gotten used to this. Mu Mingtang quickly felt sleepy after lying in bed for a slight while today.

The night rain accompanied with the autumn breeze, it was actually quite a sad atmosphere, but hearing the shallow breathing of the person beside him gave Xie Xuanchen a strange sense of security. Along with the rain and the person beside him, this sense of security would probably forever be engraved in his memory.
Xie Xuanchen fell asleep slowly, surrounded by the sound of the trickling rain.

Mu Mingtang carefully walked around Xie Xuanchen, stood on the footrest, and placed her hair that was scattered all over behind her: “Come in.”
