Xu Jiaojiao scrolled through her phone in her room for half an hour before taking a change of clothes to the bathroom, where she had a refreshing shower.

Although she really wanted to wash her hair, she could only give up when she remembered Qi Shenbai’s reminder.

Somehow, it did not feel too bad to be nagged like that, especially since the one nagging her was Qi Shenbai.

After changing into clean pajamas, Xu Jiaojiao returned to the bedroom. As soon as she climbed into bed, she heard a knock on the door. Qi Shenbai knocked twice before pushing the door open and entering with a cup of warm water and some medicine.

“Take your medicine before you go to bed.”

Xu Jiaojiao was not against taking medicine, so it was not a problem for her to swallow a few pills in one gulp.

Qi Shenbai tucked her in and turned off the lights in the room, leaving only the bedside lamp emitting a gentle light.

His voice was even warmer than the orange light. “Sleep early. Sweet dreams.”

Xu Jiaojiao yawned and nodded. “You should rest early too. Good night.”

Qi Shenbai nodded and got up to sit on the sofa, but he did not leave the room. Seeing that she was looking at him with a puzzled expression, he explained calmly, “You sleep first. 1’11 leave after you fall asleep.”

If it were anyone else, Xu Jiaojiao would definitely chase them away. How could she sleep with someone staring at her like that? However, the person sitting there was Qi Shenbai, so she did not feel awkward at all. Instead, she felt warm and loved as she nodded. “Okay.”

Qi Shenbai’s eyes lit up when he heard her soft and sweet tone. “Is your hand still cold? Shall I warm it for you?”

Before Xu Jiaojiao could respond, he had already grabbed the hand with the faint needle mark and wrapped it in his large palm.

Xu Jiaojiao lowered her eyes, but the corners of her mouth curled up despite herself.

Qi Shenbai also smiled softly, his gentle voice reverberating in the quiet room. “Tell me, what happened last night?”

Although Cang Xing had given him a rough summary of what had happened, he still wanted to hear it from her own mouth. For example, he wanted to know how she realized that her room door had been deliberately tampered with.

Also, how did she know that everything was a trap set up by someone else? She had been too calm, as if she had long since known that someone was doing this on purpose. She was clearly playing along to lure the mastermind out of hiding.

Xu Jiaojiao pursed her lips and said softly, “It was too much of a coincidence for the lock to fail like that, just after my teacher sent me back to my room.

Moreover, my phone had no line or internet, so I felt that something was wrong. That’s why 1 asked my teacher to climb out of the window.

“I’ve read a lot of mystery s before. 1 understood all the warning signs.” The girl’s voice rose with a hint of pride.

Of course, the most important thing was that she had seen everything that happened after that in her dream, including Lu Huan and Qin Yu’s interference.

However, she could not say these things out loud. Otherwise, Qi Shenbai would definitely think she was crazy.

“Sun Ping did not return to his room and went out to buy medicine for you instead. Was that also your idea?” Qi Shenbai asked.

Xu Jiaojiao nodded. “I was afraid that there might be other unforeseen factors, so it was better to keep him away from my room for as long as possible. Still, I didn’t expect his car to break down.”

Qi Shenbai frowned slightly. “I don’t think that was an accident, either.”

Xu Jiaojiao looked at him doubtfully. She had not thought of this possibility.

Qi Shenbai patiently explained, “If even you sensed something amiss, don’t you think Sun Ping would’ve guessed something too? He’s a lot more experienced than you.”

Xu Jiaojiao hazarded a guess. “Are you saying that he purposely spent the night outside and waited until morning before returning to the hotel?”

She was still puzzled, though. “But why did he do that? He could have called his fiancee directly and explained everything.”

Why did he deliberately not answer his phone, letting the others make a big deal out of everything?

“He was probably looking for an opportunity,” Qi Shenbai said lightly.

“Opportunity? What kind of opportunity?” Xu Jiaojiao was even more muddled now.

Qi Shenbai did not explain any further. “It’s nothing. Rest early.”

Xu Jiaojiao frowned slightly. Her curiosity was piqued, but he left her hanging.

He could be so annoying sometimes!

However, she still asked, “Aren’t you curious about why Lu Huan did this?”

“Why should 1 be curious about her?” Qi Shenbai was very impatient at the mention of her name, and his tone turned cross. “It’s a fact that she harmed you. I don’t care what her reasons are.”

Before Xu Jiaojiao could speak, he urged, “Your job now is to close your eyes and sleep. I’ll take care of the rest.”

Although Xu Jiaojiao had already slept during the day, she still felt sleepy after taking the cold medicine. She nodded and softly responded.

It was not a bad thing that he was not curious about Lu Huan. The more she said, the more loopholes would appear in her story. If he asked her something else and she could not answer, her secret would be exposed.

“Good night,” she said in a daze before she fell sound asleep..
