Shi Yao hesitated for a moment before voicing out her concerns. "But it's still early, and the dormitory isn't open yet. Besides, there's a good chance that someone might see me staying out last night …"
"It's not too far from my place. Do you want to sleep over there?"
Shi Yao pondered for a moment before nodding her head.
Seeing that she had agreed to it, Lin Jiage stepped on the accelerator and drove all the way to the underground parking lot of his apartment building.
After returning home, Lin Jiage passed Shi Yao a pair of slippers before heading to the storage room. After Shi Yao was done changing her slippers, Lin Jiage passed her a brand new toothpaste, toothbrush, and cup. "You can sleep in the same bedroom as before. The shower gel and other stuff you used in the past are still there, but there's no need to change the bedsheets. Auntie just washed them yesterday, and the mites were removed. The towel and towel are still here too …"
At this point, Lin Jiage seemed to have thought of something, and he quickly told Shi Yao, "Wait a moment for me" before heading back to his bedroom. A moment later, he returned with a white T-shirt and said, "You can use this as your pajamas."
Shi Yao nodded her head in acknowledgment before carrying the things Lin Jiage had given her and headed to the bedroom she was going to sleep in.
But barely after she took a few steps, Lin Jiage suddenly called out to her, "Right, Yaoyao …"
Shi Yao turned around and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Jiage raised his wrist to take a look at the time. "I have a meeting at 9.30 am, so I'll probably be heading out between 8.30 am and 9 am. Just go ahead and sleep, but there might be no one at home when you wake up, so you can do whatever you want."
Shi Yao replied with an "Oh" to indicate that she understood. After which, she asked, "Is there anything else?"
Lin Jiage fell silent for a moment before shaking his head. Shi Yao pushed open the door and entered the bedroom.
As soon as Shi Yao stepped out of the shower, she immediately fell asleep on the bed.
She had no idea how long she had slept for, but she could vaguely hear the sound of a door closing. She continued lying on the bed for a while longer before recalling that Lin Jiage had said that he would be heading out at around 9 am. Without any hesitation, she quickly pulled off her blanket and ran out of the room in her slippers.
Lin Jiage, who had spent the entire night accompanying her, had only slept for four hours. At this moment, he was already dressed and standing in the dining room, brewing a cup of coffee.
Upon seeing Shi Yao, Lin Jiage asked in bewilderment, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
"I …" Shi Yao glanced at the water dispenser by the side and came up with a random excuse, "… I'm thirsty."
Without saying a word, Lin Jiage put down his coffee cup, picked up a cup of warm water, and passed it over to Shi Yao.
Lin Jiage picked up the cup of coffee and drank half of it to refresh himself before putting it down. "I'll be heading out now. You should head back and rest for a while after you're done drinking …"
Shi Yao replied with an "Mm" as she sipped from her cup of water.
Lin Jiage didn't stay any longer. He grabbed his laptop and documents, and just as he was about to leave, the phone in his pocket suddenly rang.
Hearing the commotion, Shi Yao turned to look at him.
Upon seeing the caller ID, Lin Jiage's footsteps abruptly halted. Without any hesitation, he pressed on the button to accept the call, "Liang Xiao …"
Liang Xiao … Upon hearing those two words, Shi Yao subconsciously pricked up her ears. She even stopped drinking her water and focused her attention on eavesdropping on Lin Jiage's call.
