At the dinner table, Sheng Tang and her grandmother pretended nothing was wrong.
The family had dinner and then each retreated to their rooms.
Gu Shiting was doing his homework in Sheng Tang's room, while Sheng Tang lay on her grandmother's bed, doing nothing, her mind constantly turning.
She fell asleep before nine o'clock.
Her grandmother took a bath later, and when she entered the room, she couldn't help but smile.
She quietly turned off the light.
At two in the morning, Sheng Tang's phone rang—it was her alarm.
Older people have light sleep, and as soon as the alarm went off, she woke up too.
"Why did you set an alarm for the middle of the night?" her grandmother asked.
Sheng Tang mumbled, "I accidentally set it wrong before bed."
Her grandmother didn't believe her.
Sheng Tang's alarm was usually set, just needing to be turned on or off, so how could it be wrong?
She had already slept for five hours and felt pretty awake, so she got up and washed her face.
