By the time Lu Yuan woke up, it was already past two in the afternoon.
The afternoon was always so quiet.
The room was silent.
When Lu Yuan opened his eyes, there was no one else in the bed.
Neither Aunt Zhao nor his other wife was there.
Come to think of it, the two of them had been there when Lu Yuan first lay down.
Just like putting a child to sleep, they had chatted for a little while after lying down before Lu Yuan was out like a light.
He had been simply exhausted, and besides, it was cold outside.
The room was warm, and with nothing on his mind, he had naturally fallen asleep very quickly.
After getting out of bed, he GULPED, GULPED down two large glasses of water, then went to glance at Aunt Song's bed.
Aunt Song wasn't there either.
A groggy Lu Yuan was wondering whether he should go back to sleep or do something else,
when he glanced out the window. Hey!
'Isn't that Third Uncle's little girl?'
He quickly threw on his clothes and went out the door.
