Even though Lu Jinnian seemed to be watching the television calmly, his attention was actually on Qiao Anhao, who was beside him. He could clearly feel her nervousness and uneasiness. At the start, it was fine when she had a glass of water in her hand, but after she finished drinking, it was as though someone had sealed her pressure points. She didn't move an inch, and even when she breathed, she was extremely careful.
A deep sense of defeat surfaced in Lu Jinnian's heart. He stared at the television in a daze for a while, then stood up. In an emotionless voice, he said, "I'll go see if the photocopying is done."
Then, he took a step and left.
Lu Jinnian's departure was like a huge mountain being lifted off her shoulders, allowing Qiao Anhao to finally breathe normally. She raised her hand and patted her chest, taking in a few deep breaths. Then, her entire body relaxed, and she leaned back on the sofa, staring at the television.
The host on the television just happened to tell a joke. Even though Qiao Anhao didn't dare to laugh out loud, she couldn't help but curve her lips.
Lu Jinnian sat in front of the study table in the bedroom, taking in Qiao Anhao's every move in the living room. He was slightly dazed, but in that instant, he regained his usual calm. He shifted his gaze away from her, and stared at the photocopier that was still working.
Qiao Anhao was afraid that Lu Jinnian would come out again, so to avoid the awkwardness, she closed her eyes and pretended to sleep.
The room was very quiet. Besides the rustling of the photocopier, there was no other sound.
Qiao Anhao closed her eyes. At first, her mind was a mess, but eventually, she drifted off to sleep.
After photocopying the script, Lu Jinnian bound Qiao Anhao's script and walked out with it. In the end, he saw her leaning against the sofa, already asleep.
Lu Jinnian's footsteps instinctively stopped. He stood on the spot for a while, then turned back to the bedroom. He brought out a thin blanket, walked over to the sofa, and gently placed it over Qiao Anhao's body.
Qiao Anhao was in a deep sleep, and didn't notice anything at all.
Lu Jinnian stared at her beautiful sleeping face for a long while, then reached his hand out gently towards her face. Just as his hand was about to touch her skin, he suddenly stopped. His fingers froze in the air for a long time, and in the end, as though he had used a lot of strength to convince himself, he gently moved his hand down, gently caressing her temples. Then, he quickly pulled his hand away, stood up, and returned to the bedroom.
Qiao Anhao was in an uncomfortable position on the sofa, so she only slept for a little more than an hour before she woke up. She opened her eyes and looked at her surroundings in a daze. Then, she suddenly remembered that she was in Lu Jinnian's room. Her mind instantly cleared up, and she immediately stood up from the sofa.
