Xia Qingqian felt Beitang Yao's gentle actions lingering around her heart, and she tried hard to calm her breathing, making it so steady that no one would notice any movement, making people think she was truly asleep.
Only when Beitang Yao held her again, listening to his breath above her head, she completely relaxed her body, breathing in sync with him, and drowsiness slowly took over her.
She fell asleep with a smile on her lips and had an incredibly sweet dream.
Actually, even Beitang Yao himself found it unbelievable that he was able to hold her and sleep peacefully, without waking up the whole night, which was a feeling he had never experienced before. Since his mother's passing, every night had been sleepless for him.
Even when with Shen Youran, his sleep was not sound, yet every time he slept with Xia Qingqian, although they were exhausted after every passionate encounter and fell asleep separately, he slept more peacefully than ever.
