The next morning,
When Li Xue woke up, the very first moment her eyes shifted to look to her side. Her lips pouted a little in sleepiness, not finding the person whom she had expected to see. Sitting up, she lightly rubbed her eyes, letting it wander around to search for any hint of the man. But anywhere she looked, she felt like the person had left the room quite some time ago already.
"Huh? Where did he go so early in the morning? Wasn't he tired and sleepy after doing his never-ending work? I thought he would be still sleeping beside me when I woke up in the morning. Sigh, I think I have expected too much", She mumbled groggily, pressing her lips together and getting down from the bed to walk to the washroom.
