Lu Xingzhi pinched the cartoon character’s ears with his fingertips, and the image of Jiang Yao wearing the rabbit-eared pajamas he bought appeared in his mind. He could not help but smile. His wife still had a childlike mind. That was why she could see the two rabbit-eared pajamas among so many sets of pajamas.

It was a pity that he could not see how she was dressed at the moment. He guessed that she must look very adorable.

“Let’s talk for a while.” Jiang Yao hid under the blanket with her phone. “Do you need to get up early tomorrow morning? Have you packed everything?”

“Yes.” Lu Xingzhi put the alarm clock back. “We’ll leave at seven o’clock sharp tomorrow morning, so it’s not that early.”

Jiang Yao laughed when she heard that and said, “Then let’s chat for a while more.”

Even though Lu Xingzhi was not the kind of person who would take the initiative to converse, Jiang Yao was a chatterbox. She did not have to worry about having nothing to talk about. Jiang Yao did not need Lu Xingzhi to give her much of a response either; all he needed to do was answer her with an affirmative response or a grunt to prove that he was listening attentively. Time would go by quickly if they did that.

It was as if an hour had passed in the blink of an eye after she had just finished talking to Lu Xingzhi. The man urged her to go to bed at around midnight.

Even if he was not a doctor, Lu Xingzhi knew that staying up late was bad for one’s health.

Helpless, Jiang Yao could only reluctantly hang up the phone and bury herself in the quilt. She felt lonely.

A text message from Lu Xingzhi arrived a short time later.

[Be good, be obedient, and rest early.]

It was like coaxing a child, but it made Jiang Yao happy to see it.

She quickly replied to Lu Xingzhi and lay down on the bed, feeling much more satisfied. However, when she closed her eyes, she suddenly opened them again and remembered that she had yet to have a clear conversation with Lu Xingzhi about Ye Xueli. For some reason, Lu Xingzhi had already given up on that topic.

That guy was like a fox. He could always bring her attention to the direction he was thinking of.

It was midnight. Everyone in the small town was used to sleeping early and waking up early. The thick curtains in the room were drawn, and not a trace of moonlight could penetrate the room. No one could see the slumbering face in the room. Jiang Yao was indulging in her sleep.

Suddenly, there was a light knock on the door. Jiang Yao was startled. She turned on the bedside lamp and got out of the bed to open the door. She did not expect a black shadow would fall at her feet, frightening her.

When she saw the person lying at her feet, Jiang Yao’s anger instantly rose. “Cheng Jinnian, you’re hiding at my door at night to scare—”

Before she could say anything else, Jiang Yao realized that something was wrong with Cheng Jinnian. The little boy was curled at her feet and was trembling. His face was unbelievably pale.

“What’s wrong with you?” Jiang Yao looked flustered and hurriedly crouched to pick up the boy and put him on her bed. It was a little cold at night. The ground was even colder.

Cheng Jinnian lay on the soft bed before reluctantly raising his head to look at Jiang Yao. His eyes were full of tears. “Sister, my stomach hurts.. It hurts so much. Is it going to explode? Am I going to die from the pain?”
