Chapter 1007: Heart Demon 10
In the evening, when He Teng returned home, He Zhilan had just finished cooking noodles, and after they had dinner and took a bath, they returned to the bedroom to rest.
Maybe because the day’s outing was too exhausting, He Zhilan didn’t hassle He Teng before sleep as she usually did. Instead, she quietly lay down next to He Teng with her eyes closed.
He Teng thought He Zhilan was tired, so he turned off the light for her to rest well. However, as soon as the light was off and he had just lain down, He Zhilan, whom he thought was asleep, suddenly called out to him. After calling out, she said nothing more and became quiet again, as if she had fallen asleep.
He sighed softly, reached out to draw the person who was half a foot away from him into his arms, and it wasn’t until he accidentally touched her face and felt its iciness that He Teng realized that her quietude wasn’t due to sleep, but because she was secretly crying.
"Zhilan! What’s wrong?" He Teng, anxious, was about to turn on the light when He Zhilan stopped him.
"Brother, don’t turn on the lights, I’m fine," He Zhilan held onto He Teng’s arm, "I just feel upset inside."
Originally, she had been suppressing her tears, crying secretly, but after being discovered by He Teng, she could no longer hold back and started to sob softly.
