"Hmm, let's go to the military zone first and wait for Gu Yun. We'll return to the Imperial Capital once we confirm he's safe. If you're tired, just lean on me and sleep for a bit. Don't worry about anything; I've got it." Li Yeqi gently laid her down on his lap.
Yan Luoxi was indeed exhausted. Tonight had been mentally and emotionally draining, and after that considerable shock, once her nerves relaxed, she felt overwhelmingly sleepy.
She snuggled a bit on his legs, with so many things in her mind to say, so many questions to ask, yet none of it mattered anymore. What mattered was that she was back by his side, together with him.
Her eyelids drooped and before long, she fell asleep.
Li Yeqi held her hand with one hand, and gently embraced her with the other. He relaxed his body against the chair's backrest, and soon heard her even breathing. He stroked her face and heard Yuedao on a call.
