"Don't worry, Auntie. Jiaojiao just fainted from exhaustion. Her body is fine," Pei Yao explained with a smile.
Quan Jue walked over and sat beside Chi Jiao. As everyone spoke, he raised his hand and gently stroked Chi Jiao's soft and smooth long hair.
The unconscious Chi Jiao seemed to have sensed something. She gently rubbed her head against his palm and fell into a deeper sleep.
When Quan Jue saw this, his lips curled into a smile. "Leave this to me. I'll take care of Jiao. Everyone, go ahead and do whatever you need to do. There's no need to worry about this."
With Quan Jue taking care of Chi Jiao, everyone present was indeed more at ease.
"Alright, then. We'll leave this to you, Mr. Quan. We'll get going first." Beitang Lie and the rest didn't want to be third wheels. Without exception, they nodded and left the room.
Seeing that Quan Jue's attention was on Chi Jiao, Lu Xian smiled in relief. She held Bai Wanxi's hand and said gently, "Wanxi, go out with Auntie. Auntie also wants to see how Xiao Ye is doing."
Bai Wanxi nodded and agreed immediately. "Alright, I'll go with Auntie."
The two of them looked at each other and smiled before leaving the room with Beitang Lie and the rest.
After everyone left and closed the door, only Quan Jue and Chi Jiao were left in the room.
Quan Jue reached out to touch Chi Jiao's fair face. His actions were filled with love and affection. He treated Chi Jiao gently as if she was a fragile piece of art.
Chi Jiao was fine to begin with. She was only weak because her body was weak. At this moment, she felt a familiar and reassuring aura. She struggled for a moment before opening her eyes.
Quan Jue's handsome face entered her sight. Chi Jiao's eyes were filled with longing as she called out gently, "Brother Quan."
"Did I wake you up? I heard that your body is still very weak. Continue sleeping. I'll stay here to watch over you, "Quan Jue advised gently.
Chi Jiao shook her head and looked at him. "I don't want to sleep alone. I want Brother Quan to accompany me."
Quan Jue's lips immediately bloomed into a bright smile. Without thinking, he agreed. "Alright, I'll accompany you."
Quan Jue took off his jacket and shoes, lifted Chi Jiao's blanket, and lay beside her.
Chi Jiao's breathing was filled with Quan Jue's scent. At that moment, she was completely at ease as she snuggled into his embrace without moving.
Sure enough, she could sleep better with Brother Quan by her side.
Of course, Chi Jiao wasn't just acting coquettishly.
She had been busy these past few days, and Quan Jue wasn't any better than her. It had been a long time since the two of them could rest at ease.
Now that they had taken out the Heart of Time and revived Bai Wanxi, it was time to rest.
Chi Jiao couldn't bear for him to tire himself out, so she had to pull him along to rest.
At this moment, Chi Jiao leaned her head on Quan Jue and said gently, "Brother Quan, we've been very tired recently. Shall we rest together? I want to sleep until I wake up. Brother Quan, you have to stay with me. "
"Alright, go to sleep. I'll accompany you." With Chi Jiao in his arms, Quan Jue felt equally at ease. After Chi Jiao fell asleep, he also fell asleep.
When Chi Jiao and Quan Jue woke up again, it was already the next morning.
Chi Jiao hadn't slept for so long in a long time. When she opened her eyes, she felt refreshed as if she had come back to life.
