Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Bai Jinyao hesitated for a while and decided to go to her younger brother’s room to make do with it for a night.

The weather was good today, and the bedding in her brother’s room had already dried up, so she had a blanket to cover herself with.

However, before she could turn around, she heard the creak of the door being pushed open, followed by her mother’s voice.

“Yaoyao, why aren’t you going to sleep?”

Bai Jinyao coughed. “Mom, I was just about to go in.”

“Then you should go in quickly.”

After Mrs. Bai finished speaking, she continued to stretch her head out and look at Bai Jinyao. It was obvious that she intended to wait until Bai Jinyao entered the bridal chamber before she went back to sleep.

Being stared at by her mother, Bai Jinyao had no choice but to push the door open and go in.

She closed the door and leaned against the door to listen for any movements outside. She wanted to go out after she heard the sound of her mother closing the door.

However, she didn’t hear the door close for a long time, so she curiously opened the door a little and looked out.

And when she opened the door, she met her mother’s puzzled gaze, which frightened her so much that her heart almost stopped.

“Mom! What are you still doing here? I was scared to death. Don’t be like this in the middle of the night. It’ll scare others.”

Bai Jinyao patted her chest and complained in a low voice.

“Why would you be scared if you didn’t do anything wrong? What were you looking at outside when you opened the door a little?

“Are you waiting for me to fall asleep so that you can do something you don’t want me to know?”

Mrs. Bai asked in a low voice.

Bai Jinyao was speechless.

Although her mother was a silly and sweet person, she was actually quite sensitive.

“Mom, what are you saying? What can I do? Don’t you already know what I’ve done?

“It’s getting late. Mom, you should go to sleep. I just want to go to the toilet.”

As she spoke, Bai Jinyao pushed the door open and walked towards the toilet under Mrs. Bai’s gaze.

However, Mrs. Bai didn’t leave. She watched Bai Jinyao enter the bridal chamber and close the door. She waited for a while before she returned to her room.

Bai Jinyao, who was leaning against the door, finally heard her mother close the door. She heaved a sigh of relief.

If she went out now, she probably wouldn’t be caught by her mother again.

She was about to open the door when a voice suddenly rang out in the quiet room.

“Where are you going?”

Bai Jinyao’s heart skipped a beat.

She sucked in a breath of cold air and turned her head to see that Luo Xichu had already sat on the bed and was looking at her indifferently.

“Sir, you’re not asleep? Or did I wake you up?”

Bai Jinyao asked softly.

“I’m not sleeping. Are you going out for something?”

Luo Xichu asked this obviously because he had heard the conversation between Bai Jinyao and Mrs. Bai.

Bai Jinyao paused. “I’m planning to go to my brother’s room to sleep.”

Bai Jinyao was trying her best to prove that she had no intention of taking advantage of Luo Xichu.

Hearing this, Luo Xichu seemed to have thought of something.

He continued, “Your mother should have been paying attention to this room. If you go out, she might immediately come to find you.”

Bai Jinyao was speechless.

Luo Xichu’s words made her a little confused.

She thought, “Then what?”

She wondered if Luo Xichu meant to invite her to stay.

“But… there’s no place for me to sleep here.”

Bai Jinyao said honestly as her gaze fell on the bed where Luo Xichu was lying. Her tone seemed to have a little resentment.

It was as if she was saying that if Luo Xichu had not occupied her bed…
