However, that little gesture just now instantly extinguished the hope that Gu Chen had just kindled.
Well, perhaps it isn't so bad to interact in this manner. At least she is still by his side, isn't she?
After a while, rustling sounds came from beside him, and Gu Chen instantly sat up to see Gu Li preparing to get out of bed. He pursed his lips and asked, "Where are you going at this hour?"
Apparently not expecting Gu Chen to still be awake, Gu Li's figure stiffened, and she slowly turned back, pointing at the door, "I want to get a drink of water~"
"..."
Seeing that Gu Chen's expression did not soften, she turned around and continued to head outside. As soon as her front foot stepped out of the room, she heard Gu Chen's voice behind her: "Get me a glass too~"
"Okay."
Shortly after, Gu Li came in with a glass of water, placed it beside the bed, and then lay back down in her own spot, her back turned to Gu Chen.
