Yu Sui was implicated because of her.
She didn’t mind for herself, but she had to explain it to Yu Sui.
Compared to being stopped and beaten up, the act of being injected with drugs was obviously much worse, and for that reason, she couldn’t easily let it go.
Moreover—
If they could co this ti, there might be a next ti.
Because Yu Sui had worn her coat, those thugs mistook her for soone else. Once they realized she herself was unhard, they might try sothing else.
After Song Baiyan took a shower, Tang Li had already fallen asleep.
Being scared for the whole night, relaxation now brought on quick drowsiness.
Song Baiyan didn’t go to bed imdiately.
Standing by the bed, he placed his wristwatch on the nightstand but his gaze fell on Tang Li’s small head. Her short hair had grown a bit, scattered on the pillow. When sleeping, she liked to bury half her face into the blanket.
When he lifted the blanket, he discovered Tang Li was sleeping in a spread-eagle position.
Song Baiyan felt a bit of a headache looking at it.
Suddenly, he felt that he shouldn’t have agreed to her.
Then he laughed.
Tang Li was sleeping in a daze when she felt her hand being pulled. Then, she dread that she was being chased in an alley, cornered at a dead end, and a thug was coming at her with a chainsaw to cut off her hand. She struggled instinctively, and her hand slapped against sothing hard as a rock, the pain shooting through her vividly.
Song Baiyan had just lay down when his back was hit hard by a punch.
In an instant, he was wide awake.
He reached out and turned on the lamp.
Tang Li felt the pain, and the sudden light stabbed into her eyes. She frowned, also waking up. Opening her eyes and seeing Song Baiyan, she rembered where she was sleeping and asked, "Did you just hit ?"
"..." Song Baiyan.
Then Song Baiyan said softly, "Continue sleeping."
Tang Li was wide awake.
After lying there for a while, she gently turned over and asked in the dark, "I didn’t call the police. If I find the thugs who injected drugs into Yu Sui, I can’t do anything to them, can I?"
She knew Song Baiyan wasn’t asleep either.
Sure enough, the man’s voice followed: "What are you planning to do?"
Having her thoughts read, Tang Li didn’t say anything further.
"If they can inject people with drugs, it ans they have drugs on them, and it’s highly concentrated drugs. In this country, possession of drugs is a serious cri."
Tang Li said, "You’ve thought it through more than I have."
Saying so, she closed her eyes with ease.
Seeing her finally sleeping, Song Baiyan smiled helplessly.
Then, a slender arm reached over and lay on top of him: "Let’s sleep."
Song Baiyan pinched her delicate wrist with his hand, not pushing her away, and a head nestled up against his neck.
This shared sleep was a warmth they had never experienced in the past.
After a while, Tang Li’s faint voice ca through: "Lying here with you like this, do you get thoughts of doing sothing?"
"What are you thinking about in that little head of yours?"
"Thinking about adult topics."
Song Baiyan laughed but was also a bit exasperated: "At your age, you shouldn’t think about things you shouldn’t."
"I’m thinking on your behalf." After a few seconds of silence, Tang Li added, "Actually, I’ve made my psychological preparations, especially after tonight. I’m already of age, and since I know that I love you, if sothing happens between us, it’s not sothing I cannot accept."
Song Baiyan didn’t respond to that.
Tang Li continued: "I just want to tell you, in the future, whatever you want to do to , you don’t need to restrain yourself, I can be responsible for my own words."
Once again, she heard Song Baiyan sigh.
