Tong Airui brought gauze and ointment to Yi Luowa to reapply her wound. His little silly pig at home had one good thing—once she fell asleep, no matter how much you fussed with her, she wouldn't wake up.
Tong Airui looked lovingly at the little girl still in her dreams and silently vowed: This kind of thing will never happen a second time!
Hugging her back into his arms, Tong Airui also nodded off for a while. The fatigue accumulated over the past days eased at this moment, and both of them slept deeply, so much so that even when morning sunlight flooded the room, neither of them showed any sign of waking up.
The house was unusually quiet today, and all the credit went to Tong Yao. Early in the morning, she stationed herself in the living room, warning anyone who came out—be quiet!
Those with business to attend to were urged to eat quickly and leave, while those with no plans had to sit in the living room with Tong Yao, keeping vigil.
