Gu Kaiyuan nodded and switched their spots back. Only then did he pat Bai Suihe's shoulder. "Get some more rest. We still have some time before dawn."
Having been here for a while, Bai Suihe still hadn't figured out how to tell the current time in this era. Furthermore, there was no night watchman outside the post station to strike the hours, leaving her with absolutely no frame of reference.
"I wonder what time it is?" she asked.
Gu Kaiyuan quietly walked to the window and glanced outside. "It's almost dawn. I think I hear a rooster crowing."
Just as the two were debating whether to find an opportunity to slip into their spatial dimension for a proper rest, the sharp CRACK of a whip echoed through the air.
"Stop sleeping and get up! We have to cover thirty kilometers today. Don't dawdle! If you hold us up, don't blame us for showing no mercy!"
