Before Xu Lan could reject Bai Wu, he found himself in bed and tucked in under the blanket. After tucking Xu Lan in, Bai Wu hugged him and lay intimately on his chest.

“…” When he looked down, he was surprised to find Bai Wu asleep. He chuckled after realizing how hard the little one tried to stay awake just to spend more time with him.
