When he stepped through the door, Jiang Chen deliberately glanced at the time.
4:53
It took about an hour.
The sky hadn't yet lightened.
He could still sleep some more.
Going upstairs, he arrived at the bedroom door, playing the role of a time management master, Jiang Chen deliberately slowed his movements, gently turned the door knob, and then slowly pushed the door open.
Although he went to do a good deed and mediate family disputes, he never liked to show off, intending to sneak into bed without anyone knowing. But when he pushed the door open, the glow from the bedside lamp caused his footsteps to halt slightly.
Li Shuru was awake, sitting at the bedside, watching the projection, and upon hearing the sound, turned her head and smiled gently.
The scene was warm, yet for some reason, it also carried an eerie undertone.
Caught off guard, Jiang Chen's thoughts raced urgently but he maintained an outward calm, closing the door as if nothing happened.
"When did you wake up?"
