Sadly for Matthew Xi, he couldn't rest comfortably. In his entire life, Matthew Xi had never fell asleep on the sofa. Regardless of how exhausted he could be, his body never rested anywhere aside from his bed — even inside his own car or in Paul Qian's place. He never had a good sleep in that apartment.
Therefore, although his eyes were closed, Matthew Xi's mind was conscious about his surrounding. Just then, he heard something that broke the silence of the room.
It was the gentle sound of the sheet before a delicate footstep. Slowly, the footsteps grew audible as it drew closer to him.
Matthew Xi would have opened his eyes with that slight sound. However, he didn't. The reason? He didn't know as well.
As the soft footsteps drew closer, Zoey's strong presence also circled around his vicinity. 'Why is she awake?' He thought inwardly. Wasn't she asleep?
