Waking up at noon the next day, Chu Qingmeng found Mo Liujin sleeping with his arms around her back, one hand still clutching her bandaged forearm. The moment she stirred, Mo Liujin woke up, his voice hoarse as he asked, "Why didn't you tell me when you hurt your arm? You didn't even have Feiying bandage it until you came back from the study."
Her still-sleepy mind turned over this thought. "You? Sleeping until now? That's a rare sight."
"Heh..." Mo Liujin chuckled softly, his throat sounding raspy, as if he were fighting off internal heat. "I didn't get back until the Yin hour. Lately, Qinger and Che'er have been under Wenzhong's supervision, and I don't have to attend court today anyway. Whatever needed doing today was already handled last night, so there's nothing to worry about. I'll stay in bed with you a bit longer."
