Chapter 240 Peace of Mind



***

Halfway there, Bai Xiaoruo started yawning, feeling sleepy.

"Ugh~ Honey, I'm sleepy." She rubbed her eyes, trying to wake herself up.

Maybe it's because I got up too early today and was out for so long, but my whole body feels weak and I have no energy at all. I just want to sleep.

"We're almost there, I'll go home and sleep later."

He sped up, knowing that Bai Xiaoruo could fall asleep in a few minutes if she said she was sleepy. He couldn't let her sleep with him by his side, as it wasn't comfortable to sleep in the car.

If I had known she was sleepy, I would have simply had Uncle Chen drive before we set off.

"Hmm, okay." Bai Xiaoruo tried to cheer herself up.

Since becoming pregnant, she has been sleeping more than ever before.

......

Back at the villa, after parking the car and putting it in the garage, he unbuckled her seatbelt and lifted her out of the car. Bai Xiaoruo leaned her head against Xian Mingyu's chest and fell asleep.

She was so tired that she couldn't hold on any longer, even after trying for a long time.

While holding her with one arm, he also had to use the other to find the keys to open the door.

Bai Xiaoru was sleeping soundly. Xuan Mingyu opened the door, carried her upstairs, back to the room, put her on the bed, helped her take off her coat, and covered her with a blanket. She showed no signs of waking up at all.

I haven't lived here for a long time. The heating is off, and the whole house is freezing cold inside and out.

Xian Mingyu took an extra thick blanket from the cupboard and covered Bai Xiaoruo with it so she could sleep warmer, as it would take some time for the heating to come back on.

He sat by the bedside, watching over her.

It's already past 3 pm, let her sleep a little longer, and we'll take her out to eat after she wakes up.

He used to get inexplicably irritated and impatient whenever he faced this little girl.

Work, business trips, or even anything else can be more important than her. I see her only a handful of times a month, and sometimes we don't even sit down to eat together for several months.

But now, every minute, every second I miss her, I'm constantly worried about her.

Every time I see her smile and frown, I can't help but smile too.

She cries, she feels wronged, she puffs out her cheeks in anger, yet she's willing to humble herself, pity her, and try to please her.

Perhaps, she was his source of peace of mind.
