Although Su Wanwan was almost in a coma, she still keenly felt the meaning of Xu Yan's words - he did not want to be alone in a room with Li Meifen, so he chose to stay where he was and stare at the newly built kang.

"you......"

Before Su Wanwan could say anything, Li Meifen's anxious voice suddenly sounded from the other side:

"Brother Xu Yan, you don't have to be so careful. The kang won't collapse that easily. Come and have a rest."

Li Meifen was obviously not asleep, and was paying close attention to the situation here, which made Su Wanwan laugh in her heart. Why was it necessary to do this? If she really wanted to get close to Xu Yan, there were plenty of opportunities. Why did she have to drag herself into the water and affect other people's rest?

Regardless of how Xu Yan's feelings towards her changed, the fact that she disturbed his mind and affected the sleep of his roommates would probably make it difficult for him to have a good impression of her, especially since he was the one who repaired the kang.

If Li Meifen had not returned temporarily and "accidentally" caused the kang to collapse, this trouble would not have occurred at all.

"You told Xu Yan to take a rest, so why don't you take a rest?"

After realizing that Li Meifen would not get an answer, Su Wanwan responded with subtle emotions and light words:

There was no response from the other side, only White Reed's exaggerated snoring echoed in the air.

Since Xu Yan was going to spend the night here, she might as well take the initiative: "Why not lie on the kang and rest?" Su Wanwan didn't say this suggestion out loud after all, but just lowered her head silently. Without anyone prying, she was willing to try to indulge herself.

“Is that okay?”

I thought Xu Yan would politely decline, but I didn't expect her to reveal a hint of surprise as if she had found a treasure.

Su Wanwan pursed her lips and said, "If you don't want to, forget it."

"Of course I do." Without much hesitation, Xu Yan took off his shoes and socks, put on simple clothes and lay down on the kang. However, since his bunk was next to him, there was no pillow and no bed.

"Come."

With the last bit of clarity of mind, Su Wanwan reached out and picked up her thick clothes from the side, folded them simply and placed them under Xu Yan's head.

"You let me go up, aren't you afraid that others will find out and gossip?" Xu Yan asked in a low voice while quietly adjusting his clothes, but suddenly he noticed that Su Wanwan, who was sleeping beside him, was breathing evenly, her eyelashes covering her snow-white cheeks, and she had fallen into a deep sleep.

"You're still holding on even though you're so sleepy." Xu Yan smiled to himself, slowly turned his body to the side, put his palm under his ear to block the night chill, and squinted his eyes to look closely at the woman sleeping in front of him.

This was the first time Xu Yan stared at Su Wanwan from such a close distance.

"Why hasn't Xu Yan come over yet!" In the silent night, Bai Luwei suddenly opened his eyes.

"How should I know?" Exhausted, Li Meifen barely suppressed her dissatisfaction and moved closer to the wall again to listen to what Su Wanwan was saying. However, she had fallen asleep, and even Xu Yan remained silent. She listened in vain for a long time but heard nothing.

"Isn't he working over there?" The brief state of wakefulness did not seem to last long for Bai Luwei, and after saying this, he wanted to fall asleep again.

Li Meifen subconsciously clenched her fingers and said, "If you want to sleep, then go ahead. Can you snoring a little less? I heard it the other day when I was next door. It's like a cannon blasting when someone sleeps next to you."

Bai Luwei seemed not to hear what Li Meifen said and continued to snore loudly.

On the other side, Xu Yan, who was concentrating on staring at the outline of Su Wanwan's face, felt very peaceful. Although it was cold around him and there was no warm quilt, as long as he was by her side, he could feel an incomparable sense of peace and tranquility all the time.

The night passed quickly, and when the dawn came, Xu Yan had already gotten up and returned to the house to wash. When Su Wanwan opened her eyes, there was no one around, only the new kang that had just been laid last night.

The familiar loud snoring of Bai Luwei was still orderly. Su Wanwan dragged her heavy body off the kang. She looked at the time and found that it was almost time to go to work, so she hurriedly fetched water to wash her face.

"Use this hot water. It's been very cold these days." Xu Yan brought a small basin of hot water and gently placed it next to Su Wanwan's sink.

"Did you burn this just now? Didn't you wake them up?" Su Wanwan asked reflexively.

White Reed was not disturbed by the even snoring next door, but...what about Li Meifen? Her inner speculation always seemed immature. The small stove assigned to them was limited in power, and it often took a long time to boil a pot of water, and the process was accompanied by some noise. Even if Li Meifen was sleeping as quietly as a white reed, some strange sounds would disturb her ears. But now there was no movement.

Xu Yan shook his head slightly, watched Su Wanwan pour hot water into the basin, and then left with the basin. Su Wanwan was confused, not understanding what he was busy with so early in the morning.

Every morning, the production team members showed up at the corner of the courtyard on time. When the people outside slowly moved in, Su Wanwan had already put on her shoes and coat. Before leaving, her mother wanted to pack all her belongings for her, and clothes especially took up a large part.

I thought the weather in early autumn was pleasant and I didn't need to wear such a bulky coat, but my mother saw that the weather was unpredictable. With the current temperature and the chill in the early morning, if I didn't have those heavy clothes to protect my body, I was afraid that I would be swallowed by the cold wind.

The young people in the waiting line were talking in low voices. Su Wanwan came out with a lunch box and a water bottle on her back. The line was basically in order. She found a place to stand and waited patiently like everyone else.

As expected, they may witness a strange scene next -

At the same time, in the house in the courtyard, even though she had just heard the loud sound of boiling water, Li Meifen still tried to ignore it, closed her eyes tightly, and even deliberately slowed down her breathing to a level that no one could notice. She decided to wait quietly, and as long as Xu Yan was still in the house, she would get up later.

Anyway, Bai Luwei, who was sleeping like a dead person, didn't care about it at all. It didn't matter whether she moved or not. After Xu Yan finished boiling water, he left for a while. Li Meifen even wanted to wake up.

Since Xu Yan was not in the room, she didn't want others to mistakenly think that she had anything to do with Bai Luwei.

But surprisingly, Xu Yan only left for a while and then came back without going out. The people queuing outside gradually approached, and more and more people gathered at the entrance.

Li Meifen was secretly proud.

As the departure time approached, Bai Luwei woke up from a deep sleep and immediately turned to look at Li Meifen beside him.

Seeing Li Meifen lying beside him intact, he widened his already not-so-small eyes, and his voice resounded through the roof -

"Li Meifen! Didn't I tell you to get up early and go back to your room last night? What time is it now? Why didn't you go to bed early last night?"

Bai Luwei's rebuke was like sudden raindrops, all falling on Li Meifen, but she didn't feel cold at all. Instead, she was laughing secretly in her heart.
