The next mont, she poured the pills back into the bottle, screwed on the cap, and tossed the bottle back into the bedside table drawer, then lifted the quilt and got into bed to sleep.
No matter how she tried to hypnotize herself, persuading her body to sleep, she kept failing.
She knew clearly that she couldn’t fall asleep; she wanted to get up and take sleeping pills.
After struggling for a long ti, around five o’clock, she finally couldn’t resist her body’s fatigue, got up again, opened the bedside table, took out the sleeping pills, poured out two tablets, and only after taking them did she lie down with peace of mind.
This ti, not long after, she fell into a sleep...
...
When Qin Muni got up, it was already close to noon. She picked up her phone from the bedside table and received two WeChat ssages from Xu Yisen.
The first one was sent at eight-thirty, asking if she was awake.
Half an hour later, Qin Muni still hadn’t replied. He sent another ssage reminding her to reply once she was awake; he would co to her house to apply dicine on her hand wound and prepare breakfast for her.
Qin Muni didn’t reply to Xu Yisen’s WeChat, exited WeChat, and opened her SMS. An hour ago, Xia Weifu had sent her a text ssage.
The ssage contained the eting ti and place for the two of them tomorrow, which was at one in the afternoon at a cafe.
Just as Qin Muni was getting up from the bed to go to the bathroom, her phone vibrated again; it was Xu Yisen asking if she was awake.
Only then did she reply to Xu Yisen... [Yeah, just woke up.]
[I brought you breakfast, co downstairs and open the door.]
[Okay.]
After replying to Xu Yisen’s ssage, Qin Muni paused her steps towards the bathroom, turned to leave the room, and went downstairs to open the door for Xu Yisen, who was at the door.
The mont the door opened, a warm smile appeared at Xu Yisen’s lips. Both of his hands carried bags, and he bent slightly to place a gentle kiss on Qin Muni’s forehead, "Good morning, girlfriend."
"Morning."
Xu Yisen entered the house from Qin Muni’s side, replaced his shoes with indoor slippers, and instinctively looked at Qin Muni’s left hand when he turned around.
Then his beautiful eyebrows couldn’t help but gently furrow, "Didn’t you wrap your hand with bandages last night?"
Qin Muni instinctively raised her left hand. The wound on her hand had already stopped bleeding, but there was so redness and swelling around the wound, along with so itchiness.
"Seems like I forgot." Qin Muni lowered her hand, shrugged indifferently.
The wound was quite long, but not deep, so it wasn’t very painful, just a bit unsightly.
Her nonchalant attitude made Xu Yisen a bit helpless. He shifted the bag in his right hand to his left hand, then extended his right hand to gently and carefully hold Qin Muni’s left wrist.
Walking towards the living room, Xu Yisen asked softly, "Have you washed up?"
"Not yet."
"Then let apply the dicine and wrap the bandage first, so you don’t accidentally get it wet later."
"Okay."
Qin Muni let him lead her to sit on the sofa, watched him release her hand to place all the bags he carried in his left hand on the coffee table, then turn to fetch the dical kit.
When he returned with the dical kit and sat beside Qin Muni, he took out alcohol, cotton swabs, and ointnt from the kit, and tenderly took Qin Muni’s left hand.
"Why were you so careless to cut your hand?"
"I broke a glass and accidentally cut it while picking up the pieces."
"Why not use a broom to sweep them up?"
Qin Muni glanced sideways at Xu Yisen calmly, his tone so matter-of-fact that it gave her the feeling her intelligence was being underestimated.
