Tang Shiyue said, "Then you can sleep in my bedroom. I’ll clean up and move to the next room. There’s air conditioning in my bedroom. Otherwise, it’ll be too cold."
Tang Xi said it was unnecessary.
But Tang Shiyue stubbornly pushed her into his bedroom.
"These are new bed sheets and quilts. If you need anything at night, just call me. I’ll be next door."
Tang Xi noticed dust on the boy’s shoulders. She raised her hand, and with slender fingers, she took a cloth and gently swatted it, "How did you get all this dust on you?"
Tang Shiyue paused for a moment, "Oh, I accidentally rubbed against something."
Tang Xi asked Tang Shiyue to take off his down jacket and used the cloth to help him wipe off the dust. Suddenly, she raised her eyes, and her gaze fell on the boy’s neck. There were two red marks as if scratched by something sharp, with a bit of blood that had already clotted. Worry flashed through her eyes as she gently bit her lip and approached, "Look at this. What happened here?"
Tang Shiyue touched it and then instinctively shrank back.
He did not dare to meet Tang Xi’s eyes, and merely said in a low voice, "I accidentally scraped against a nail, it’s nothing serious."
