Jun Yexuan pursed his lips then spun around to sit by her, “Then, I will stay with you.”
Qiao Qing paused but didn’t say anything more.
The next second, a white silhouette appeared, “I can’t sleep either.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Just like that, this solo fight turned into a three-person journey – even though two of them were useless.
However, before long, the door to the study room opened again.
When Qiao Qing saw who it was, she abruptly jumped up, “Why did you come down?!”
Leng Yan was about to talk more but before he could speak up, he had to turn his head and cough.
After he coughed, he curled up his fingers and placed that hand behind his back.
He then extended his other hand and patted Qiao Qing’s head, “Stupid girl, how can you remain sleepless for a month?”
Qiao Qing lowered her head and pursed her lips, “I…”
“Even those made out of metal cannot remain restless,” Leng Yan said, “If you keep this up, how can I…”
His gaze met the other two men and he changed his words, “How can the rest of us not worry?”
Qiao Qing said, “I’m fine.”
“Go rest. Be good,” Leng Yan said, “Or else I won’t let you treat me.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Can’t he use a different method to get her to sleep?
Qiao Qing felt like she needed to stop letting this guy have all the control.
So she turned unreasonable, “It’s your problem if you don’t want me to treat you. Wanting to treat you is my problem. After all, I am not tired.”
Her playful and stubborn way made Jun Yexuan tighten his fist.
Leng Yan also started to chuckle. His pale face was completely drained of color and vitality.
However, he didn’t forget why he came, “When did you learn to fight back?”
He then started to act troubled, “Then it seems like I have to do what third young master Jun and young master Qi are doing. I have to give up my life and stay with you for as long as you’re up.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
Just as Leng Yan was about to pull up a chair and sit down, Qiao Qing finally threw in the towel, “I’m going to sleep. You should go back too.”
“Good girl.” Leng Yan stood up, “Let’s go. I’ll walk you back to your room.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
It wasn’t easy to fool Leng Yan.
Leng Yan said he’ll walk her to her room, but in his current state, everyone had to drop him off first.
After the group left the study room, they helped Leng Yan go back to his bed.
Just as Qiao Qing was about to leave, Leng Yan opened his mouth, “If Qingqing wants me to rest well, then you better not sneak off and read more books.”
Qiao Qing, “…”
She had no way out of this then.
“Alright, I won’t do anything,” Qiao Qing promised, “You sleep.”
After the three left Leng Yan’s room, Jun Yexuan and Qi Yusen walked Qiao Qing back to her room.
By the time the two boys headed to their own rooms, Qi Yusen exclaimed, “Leng Yan treats Qingqing so nicely. The two of them also seem to get along really well. If it weren’t for his sickness…”
Jun Yexuan’s brow raised up and an alarm went off in his heart, “Brother! Am I not nice enough to Qiao Qing?! You think couples care about getting along well?! Couples care about love!”
Qi Yusen was silent for a while. He then left.
Jun Yexuan, “…”
Qiao Qing didn’t sneak out to read books. However, because she couldn’t just let it go, she got up as early as 6 am.
By the time Jun Yexuan and the others awoke, she had read an entire book.
