457 Her Approach 10 (2/2)

Su Zhinian eventually conceded but not because of anything Song Qingchun said. His fever kept receding and returning; he was afraid that some accident might happen should he drive in such a condition, so he eventually agreed for Song Qingchun to take the taxi home.

Instead, Su Zhinian wrapped a coat around Song Qingchun and helped her into the taxi.

When Song Qingchun bade him farewell, the sense of unwillingness welled up in his heart again.

Her spirit that was lifted during her long conversation with Su Zhinian started to drop as the taxi moved further and further away from his house.

When she reached home, Song Qingchun jumped into her bed and reached for her phone as per her usual habit. However, instead of checking her WhatsApp and Facebook instantly, the first thing she did was to send Su Zhinian a message. ”I'm home.”

Her message alert was turned on, and she would know if a message came in, but she couldn't help glancing at the notification box while she scrolled through the latest news.

There was no reply from Su Zhinian even after five minutes.

Song Qingchun lost her interest in skimming through the social media. She didn't feel drowsy even though she hadn't had a good night sleep for a whole day already. She just felt… sad.

She tossed and turned in bed and occasionally reached for her phone. Eventually, she sat up in bed with frustration. She was about to go to the balcony to take a breather when the message came in.

Song Qingchun practically jumped back into bed to grab at the phone left in it. When she saw that it was a message from Su Zhinian, her lips curved involuntarily into a smile.

”Sleep early.”

Like his previous messages to her, it was succinct and to the point.
