When Bai Xiaoruo regained some consciousness, she reached out and touched the bed sheet beside her. It was completely cold, and there was no sign that anyone had ever lain on it.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up in bed. Everything around her was exactly the same as last night; nothing had changed.
Didn't he sleep here last night?
I thought...
I was overthinking it.
This house is so big, it must have many rooms, and no one has stipulated that he has to sleep with me.
Bai Xiaoruo unbuttoned her shirt one button at a time and changed into the dress she had worn yesterday.
Having bothered him for the entire night, I should probably head back now.
Just then, a crisp knock sounded at the door—
"Young Madam, are you awake?"
The people outside called twice before Bai Xiaoruo responded, and only then did the bodyguards outside dare to open the door and go in.
One of the bodyguards was holding one of those items.
"Young Madam, breakfast has been prepared for you downstairs. We will take you back after you have finished eating."
The bodyguard extended the retractable cane in his hand and handed it to Bai Xiaoruo, saying, "Young Madam, this is prepared for you by the young master to make it easier for you to go downstairs."
Am I supposed to go downstairs with a cane?
Bai Xiaoruo felt a little disappointed, thinking that Xuan Mingyu would hug her again like yesterday.
He's really quick to prepare this so early in the morning.
Leaning on a cane, wouldn't I look even more like a cripple?
"Where is he? Has he left?"
Bai Xiaoruo remembered that the last time she woke up, he rushed off to do his work. Would it be the same this time?
"Young Master went out for a run," the bodyguard said, glancing at his watch. "He'll be back soon. Madam, would you like to come downstairs for something to eat?"
So it turns out that Hsien Ming-yu has a habit of getting up early for a morning run.
I learned a little more about him.
Compared to that, Bai Xiaoruo felt like she was sleeping in.
Thankfully, he's still at home.
"Okay, I'll go down now."
Bai Xiaoruo took the cane, and two bodyguards knelt down beside her to help her put on her shoes. She slowly stood up, supporting herself with the cane.
With the support of crutches, standing up doesn't hurt as much.
However, you should still follow the doctor's advice and walk less in the next couple of days to avoid causing a second injury.
