Ming Yue's heart was pounding. She wanted to cry out, to beg Su Nian to hurry and find a way to help her.
Her boyfriend suddenly broke into a wide grin.
"Okay, okay, I was just messing with you! Did I scare you?"
"I know the conditions here aren't great, and it's a bit much for you. It's okay, I'll change the sheets for you in a bit. You can sleep then, okay?"
"Okay, okay!"
Ming Yue nodded repeatedly.
The Master had said her future mother-in-law was a corpse, but she hadn't said anything about her boyfriend.
He was as thoughtful as ever, and Ming Yue felt a complex swirl of sweetness and unease.
"I'll wait for you in the room, then."
Her voice was quiet. She really didn't dare go outside.
The moment her boyfriend left, she immediately grabbed her Bluetooth earbuds and put them on.
[I don't know, her boyfriend seems pretty normal to me?]
[Maybe her boyfriend doesn't actually know his mom is dead?]
