Nan Zhiyun slowly calmed herself down. Forget it, she decided not to think about it anymore. Looking at Yu Jingchen, who was still "asleep," Nan Zhiyun quieted down. That's it.
Yu Jingchen was puzzled when Nan Zhiyun didn't make any further moves. What was she doing? Why did she suddenly stop reacting?
Yu Jingchen slowly opened his eyes and looked at the little woman lying on his chest. Her emotions seemed a little off, perhaps because her expression was too desolate. Yu Jingchen's heart tightened.
He stopped pretending and asked, "Awake?" Yu Jingchen finally spoke. Nan Zhiyun, who had been lost in her own thoughts, was startled by this sudden question.
Feeling her body tremble, Yu Jingchen softened his voice: "Do you want to continue sleeping?" he asked.
Nan Zhiyun shook her head and climbed out of Yu Jingchen's arms. The warm, soft body in his arms suddenly disappeared, and Yu Jingchen felt a chill and a sense of emptiness in his heart.

Nan Zhiyun thought about it for a moment, and realized that her feet... might make it difficult to walk in a little while, but since she had already come this far, she couldn't just say she couldn't do it, so she nodded.
Yu Jingchen then got off the bed and instructed the servants to prepare meals and toiletries, while Nan Zhiyun remained seated on the bed without moving.
After the people outside brought in the water, Yu Jingchen didn't let them in, but instead took the water himself.
Seeing Yan Qing's reaction, Nan Zhiyun became restless and was about to get up, but how could Yu Jingchen let her move? So he immediately said, "Don't move, or you'll only cause trouble. Just sit still." Nan Zhiyun stopped moving, and Yu Jingchen brought over the water and began to help her wash up…
