Xu Tingchuan shifted his position and patted the spot next to him, signaling Ni Sitian to come up.

Ni Sitian didn't stand on ceremony. She lay down on the bed, propped herself up on her arm, and looked at Xu Tingchuan.

"How can I rest if you keep staring at me like that?" Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly and pinched the tip of her nose.

"If you close your eyes, you won't know I'm watching you." Ni Sitian checked the time; it was already four o'clock. She urged, "You should get some rest."

"Let's sleep together," Xu Tingchuan insisted, making it clear that if she didn't sleep, he wouldn't either.

Helpless, Ni Sitian lay down on the pillow. "Is this okay?"

Xu Tingchuan put his arm around her shoulder and pulled her head towards his chest so she could sleep against his chest.

Ni Sitian originally wanted to hold on, but once she was in Xu Tingchuan's arms, that familiar sense of security washed over her, making her eyelids heavy with sleepiness, and she closed her eyes in no time.

Xu Tingchuan turned his head and kissed Ni Sitian's forehead, then closed his eyes and fell asleep together.

The next day, when Ni Sitian woke up, she found her hand on Xu Tingchuan's stomach and hurriedly withdrew it.

Xu Tingchuan also woke up and patted Ni Sitian's head, "Good morning."

"Does your wound hurt?" Ni Sitian asked, worried that she might accidentally roll over on him while sleeping.

"It doesn't hurt, it didn't even need stitches, it's really just a scratch. It's just that the doctor Pei Yang found was exaggerating." Xu Tingchuan prepared to sit up.

"Don't move, don't move around." Ni Sitian tried to press him back down. No matter how casually he spoke, how could she not worry after seeing so much blood? She said, "Just tell me what you want to do."

Xu Tingchuan's lips curved into a smile as he suppressed a laugh and said, "I need to use the restroom, can you help me?"

Ni Sitian was speechless. Xu Tingchuan chuckled and slowly got up from the bed to go to the bathroom.

After they both washed up, Pei Yang came over carrying two bags of things. "There's nothing special to offer, just some random things, please make do with these."

"Thank you." Ni Sitian looked at Pei Yang with great gratitude and accepted the breakfast.

After breakfast, Pei Yang's private doctor came to change Xu Tingchuan's dressing.

Ni Sitian looked at the wound and found it wasn't as serious as she had imagined, but it was still a cut and needed to be rested for a while.

They couldn't stay with Pei Yang forever, so after changing their dressings, Ni Sitian called their driver, Xiao Zhang, and they rode home together to their own home.

Upon entering the house and seeing the mess on the floor, she realized that she hadn't come back to clean it up.

Xu Tingchuan had already heard Ni Sitian mention it that day, but after seeing the wreckage of the explosion with his own eyes, he regretted not breaking all of Li Rui's ribs.

"You rest for a bit, I'll pack my things." Ni Sitian helped Xu Tingchuan to lie down on the bed.

After she finished speaking, she went out and cleaned up the mess on the ground.

Just as she was about to go back to the bedroom to keep Xu Tingchuan company, the doorbell rang.

She went over and looked through the peephole. It was the delivery guy, and he was holding a box that was about the same size as the bomb package.

She became wary and dared not open the door.

The doorbell kept ringing, and Xu Tingchuan came out of the bedroom and walked to the entrance hall.

Ni Sitian wanted him to go back and rest, but Xu Tingchuan had already opened the door and signed for the package.

She was already traumatized by the package and kept telling Xu Tingchuan to put it down.

Xu Tingchuan smiled faintly, placed it on the table, and picked up a utility knife to disassemble it.

Ni Sitian gripped his arm tightly, ready to pull him to the ground at any moment.

She held her breath, never expecting that when she opened the package, what was inside was...
