Chapter 967 - 968: Getting Up at Night
"Cold! Cold! I’m freezing!" Wu Xiaoya curled up her body tightly, her teeth chattering uncontrollably, upper and lower teeth clacking together, making a rapid sound.
Miao Qingqing anxiously said, "Honey, what should we do now?"
Song Xiaodong responded, "There’s nothing else we can do for now. You two should hold her on either side; it might make her feel better."
Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan didn’t hesitate and immediately moved to embrace Wu Xiaoya.
Wu Xiaoya seemed to feel a bit better, but she kept trembling.
The entire day, Wu Xiaoya alternated between being cold and hot, leaving Song Xiaodong, Miao Qingqing, and Miao Xuanxuan utterly exhausted.
As darkness fell, Miao Qingqing suggested, "Honey, you should take a break for a bit, then come back to relieve us. None of us will manage to stay awake all night without resting."
Song Xiaodong didn’t resist. The second half of the night would undoubtedly be harder than the first. Letting Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan take over for a while while he caught a little sleep to preserve his strength was a good idea. Plus, he had to stay alert in case Li Fangding and his people dared to approach; he needed enough mental willpower to deal with them.
After sleeping for about three hours, Song Xiaodong woke up and called Miao Qingqing and Miao Xuanxuan to rest.
The two women were already thoroughly worn out, muttered a few words, and then huddled together to sleep.
Song Xiaodong sat beside Wu Xiaoya, touched her forehead, and noticed she didn’t seem as weak as before. The shivering had also subsided somewhat. These signs indicated she might be improving.
Song Xiaodong stayed beside her to ensure she didn’t face any sudden issues.
