But his granddaughter said she didn't want him to leave. Elder Zhao could only pull down his old face and urge Jiang Liu'er to stay. No matter what, Elder Zhao would try his best to do what his granddaughter wanted.

"Look, this child's words are a bit reasonable. If it's convenient for you, why don't you come over to see Qing Er?" In comparison, Elder Zhao, who was more experienced, spoke a little. He didn't directly say that Zhao Qing'er really wanted Jiang Liu'er to accompany her. Instead, he carefully made an invitation, hoping that Jiang Liu'er would visit Zhao Qing'er when she was free.

This kind of explanation made people feel that there was no way to refuse it. At the very least, it was different from what they had imagined. Even Jiang Liu'er had no reason to refuse it.

Looking at Elder Zhao, he pondered silently for a few minutes before finally agreeing. "What you say makes sense. Then, I will be troubling you."

"Not at all, not at all." Seeing that Jiang Liu'er agreed so quickly, Elder Zhao was immediately happy. He really didn't expect to get Jiang Liu'er to agree so easily. Thus, he immediately turned to look at Zhao Qing'er, who was behind him. What left Elder Zhao speechless was that Zhao Qing'er had already ran to Jiang Liu'er's side. The two of them looked very familiar, and there was nothing for him to worry about.

Elder Zhao shook his head. It seemed that his granddaughter had grown up as well. There were many things he didn't need to discipline. He believed that Zhao Qing'er knew what to do.

Elder Zhao didn't have much control over his granddaughter. He believed that this young man himself knew what he should do. Moreover, Elder Zhao truly admired this young man. If it was anyone else, he would face many trials. However, in this period of time, Jiang Liu'er had become an outstanding figure in Elder Zhao's eyes. No matter what, he was still someone he was very satisfied with.

In such a situation, Elder Zhao naturally wouldn't care too much. Even if Jiang Liu'er didn't say anything and did nothing, being with Zhao Qing'er was a matter that greatly assured Elder Zhao.

Elder Zhao's trust towards Jiang Liu'er came from his previous experiences. The current situation was what they had thought of but did not think of.

When Zhao Qing'er returned to her own home, Jiang Liu'er also came back. Although he initially wanted to go home and rest, under the current circumstances, since Zhao Qing'er said that she wanted him to accompany her, there was no need for him to back off. So now, Jiang Liu'er still followed her directly, and when she saw Zhao Qing'er in front of her, she was a little surprised.

After all, no matter how he looked at it, Zhao Qing'er looked exactly the same as before. However, for some reason, her expression now looked a little absent-minded. He silently thought about it.

Even though Zhao Qing'er had a big heart, in truth, there was still excitement in her heart. Jiang Liu'er felt that she had completely ignored Zhao Qing'er's thoughts, and he felt a slight sense of guilt. That was the situation she was in.

"Will you stay with me until I wake up?" After she finished speaking, she actually burst out laughing. As she looked at Jiang Liu'er, she said embarrassedly, "I'm sorry, I went too far."

No one had ever made such a request. Under the current circumstances, asking Jiang Liu'er to accompany him here was already a rather strenuous request, and to even ask her to stay here with him was undoubtedly an unreliable request. At the very least, to the Jiang Liu'er in front of him, he still had other things on his mind.

Zhao Qing'er felt that her request was a bit too excessive, so she could only shake her head in embarrassment. However, when she looked at Jiang Liu'er, there was a faint trace of hope in her eyes.

Jiang Liu'er, who was originally simply at a loss whether to laugh or to cry, felt a trace of surprise. He originally thought that Zhao Qing'er was just thinking of something else, so he wanted to change the topic. Jiang Liu'er tried to play her for a bit, but when she thought of the scene just now, she realized that Zhao Qing'er didn't seem like such a girl. Therefore, she really couldn't sleep. Or rather, when she slept, she would also feel afraid, so she wished that she could stay by her side.

Such a thought made Jiang Liu'er feel like she was being unreasonable. After all, when she was with Zhao Qing'er, this girl had always acted like she was mature and sensible. Many times, she would consider other things, including her own thoughts, before him. This made Jiang Liu'er think of the scene from before, and she immediately felt helpless.

He didn't seem to care about Zhao Qing'er at all. On the contrary, he didn't think it was reasonable. Jiang Liu'er sighed inwardly. He felt that he had been too soft-hearted at times. However, when facing such a beautiful girl like Zhao Qing'er, it seemed really difficult to get him to reject her. Just tell her who could face such a beautiful girl and her heart would calm down. She turned around and left on the spot.

At the very least, the current Jiang Liu'er wouldn't be able to do such a thing, especially under such circumstances. It would be better for him to maintain his previous condition.

"Since you can't sleep, I'll stay with you until you fall asleep." In such a situation, the current Jiang Liu'er was naturally somewhat helpless. Since he couldn't say anything, he had no choice but to stay.

Looking at the scene before her, Zhao Qing'er smiled. She simply closed her eyes, and Jiang Liu'er silently watched her actions. He had never thought that Zhao Qing'er would trust him so much. Even if it was just words, she didn't hesitate to believe them. It was rare to see a girl like this. While Jiang Liu'er was thinking about this, she forgot about it. The premise of all this was that she had a place on her body that Zhao Qing'er could trust.

She was, after all, a girl, so it wasn't easy for her to have such a high degree of trust in someone of the opposite sex. Jiang Liu'er didn't choose to make good use of her, instead, she just stood outside, causing countless people to feel sad that he had lost a great opportunity. For example, he was thinking occasionally about what he should do today. He should have gone back to his own house to rest, but now that he was here sleeping with Zhao Qing'er, he could only put this matter aside for now.

That being said, it was extremely difficult for Jiang Liu'er to maintain her consciousness, especially now that she was in such a state. He silently stayed there for a while, and then felt the weight of his eyelids getting heavier and heavier. In the end, Jiang Liu'er couldn't hold on any longer and closed her eyes to fall asleep. He had been sitting beside Zhao Qing'er the entire time, and now that he was asleep, he fell asleep beside her.

When Zhao Qing'er woke up, she thought Jiang Liu'er had left long ago, but even so, she still slept well. Perhaps it was because Jiang Liu'er said he would wait by her side. Originally, she felt that she would still feel a lot of sadness or some other emotions, but in the end, not a single one of them appeared. This already made her feel very surprised, and it could only be said that with Jiang Liu'er by her side, it was a pretty good thing.

When Zhao Qing'er opened her eyes, she lifted her hand and realized that there seemed to be some sort of binding on her finger. She subconsciously frowned, and then surprisingly discovered that when she opened her eyes, she could feel Jiang Liu'er's hand covering her own. Furthermore, both of her hands were tightly holding onto her.

She didn't know what Jiang Liu'er had dreamed of, but she did feel a little conflicted within her heart. After all, it didn't seem like the same thing for her to be held by Jiang Liu'er's hand. However, it didn't seem like a good idea to not let Jiang Liu'er hold his hand. After yesterday's calamity, Zhao Qing'er's relationship with Jiang Liu'er had reached a whole new level.

What's more, she had already sensed it earlier. Jiang Liu`er had taken care of him at all times, so she was not unaware of it.

In such a situation, Zhao Qing'er felt that she had to face Jiang Liu'er properly. Otherwise, she wouldn't know whether Jiang Liu'er would be able to sigh with emotion after waking up, thinking that she had saved a little ingrate. Thinking of this, Zhao Qing'er couldn't help but laugh at her own strange imagination. She knew that Jiang Liu'er wouldn't say such things, but she would still find it funny.

Zhao Qing'er felt a surge of tenderness in her heart as she looked at Jiang Liu'er. Right now, she didn't want to say anything else to him. Since he wanted to close his eyes and rest, she might as well just continue sleeping on the floor like this. Although this kind of sleep wasn't very comfortable for most people, Zhao Qing'er couldn't think of a better way to sleep.
