When did he last sleep? How did he get so tired? As a Great Deity, he was equipped with the physique of a supreme being, which should have provided him with enough energy to go sleepless for ten days. However, from the look of his exhausted face, he must have worked a lot in order to get back to her as soon as possible.
She felt so loved by his heartwarming gesture. At the same time, she also felt uneasy about putting her head on his arm for so long. She was worried that his arm might go numb, so she moved her head away slightly.
Unsurprisingly, as soon as she lifted her head, his other arm immediately cuddled her and pulled her even closer to him.
Gu Xijiu looked up and saw that he still had his eyes closed. His steady breathing clearly showed that he was still in a deep sleep. Apparently, his reaction to her lifting her head off his arm was all a reflex action that he had developed over time. Even in his sleep, he did not want her to leave.
