Xiao Nan nodded, remembering that the Princess couldn't see. He set the room temperature just right, and as he was about to turn off the light, a sharp voice suddenly pierced the air.
"Don't turn off the light."
In the darkness, this sharp and somewhat bleak voice made Xiao Nan's heart tremble suddenly.
The next moment, the light dispelled the darkness.
The night was like a giant net, entangling her completely. The more she struggled, the tighter the net closed in, gradually stripping her of breath.
The night was so silent, in this suffocating silence, she could hear her own frantic heartbeat, panic, fear, anxiety...
She curled up in the blanket, yet the warmth couldn't resist the cold that penetrated her bones, the night was so long and so cold.
