Only after Han Jingnian steadied himself did Xia Wan’an bend over to pick up her phone. She glanced at the ti; it was already eleven o’clock. Supporting him with her small fra, she pointed to the stairs, "The elevator has been fixed now. Should we take the one upstairs or downstairs?"
Han Jingnian didn’t speak and pointed downwards.
Han Jingnian was almost powerless, thus Xia Wan’an had to summon up all her strength to support him all the way to the elevator.
Upon entering the elevator, Xia Wan’an thought that he wanted to go downstairs as he pointed in that direction. She instinctively reached out to press the button for the first floor, but before her fingertips touched the number on the panel, he, standing next to her, suddenly held her hand and lit up the top floor number instead.
His dry palm was warm and strong, yet his fingertips were slightly cold.
Xia Wan’an’s heart suddenly skipped a beat, and she montarily forgot to pull her hand from his.
When Xia Wan’an ca to her senses and saw that Han Jingnian was still holding her hand, she blushed slightly. She gently withdrew her hand from his palm, and to cover her embarrassnt, found a random topic, "Are you heading back to the office?"
Staring at his now empty palm, Han Jingnian paused for a mont before replying with a nod, "Mm."
"Working overti this late?"
"No..." Han Jingnian paused then added, "Rest."
"Oh." Just as Xia Wan’an responded, the elevator door opened with a ’ding’ sound.
She initially thought that Han Jingnian wanted to rest in the office for a bit, but was surprised when he had her help him to the inside office lounge to rest.
Looking at Han Jingnian, who got under the covers, laid on the bed with his eyes closed, and seed ready to spend the night here, Xia Wan’an felt a bit stupefied.
Did he intend to sleep here?
Xia Wan’an blinked, feeling a tad envious, "You’re going to sleep now?"
With his eyes closed, Han Jingnian gave a slight nod, "Mm."
"Oh..." Xia Wan’an’s envy was written all over her face. She too wanted to crash on the bed and sleep!
Seeing his current state markedly improved from before, she thought he was probably fine now. Thus, she, eager to go ho, take a bath, and sleep, spoke again, "Then rest well. I’m also heading ho to sleep!"
Having said that, Xia Wan’an took her phone and got ready to leave.
However, barely had she turned around to take a step when Han Jingnian’s sudden voice stopped her, "Co here!"
Xia Wan’an turned back to him, "Huh?"
"Co here!" Han Jingnian seed impatient but he repeated the sa two words again.
Co here? To do what exactly?
While Xia Wan’an was wondering, she reluctantly took a few steps back. Beofre she could reach the bed, he suddenly reached out, grabbed her arm, unprepared, she toppled onto the bed, landing next to him.
Huh? What’s he trying to do?
Xia Wan’an instinctively tried to sit up, but before she could even move, the blanket was thrown over her, "Sleep."
Sleep?
Did he an for her to stay and sleep with him?
Xia Wan’an was stunned for a mont, then said an afterthought "oh," and raised her phone up to turn off the flashlight.
However, before her fingertips could touch the screen, he suddenly snatched her phone, "Just sleep like this."
