Furthermore, Zhao Qing'er could vaguely understand what was going on. The river should not be an ordinary person. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to rush to the place with so many people surrounding them and save themselves.

Therefore, Zhao Qing'er was still a little curious about what kind of attitude Jiang Liu'er had. If he really was an ordinary person, then sleeping like this shouldn't be a big deal for him. Zhao Qing'er silently thought to herself in her heart. She pitied the current Jiang Liu'er. He didn't know what had happened, but he had slept beside her for the entire night.

And now, Zhao Qing'er actually felt that she had taken advantage of Jiang Liu`er, because she had never been so intimate with someone of the opposite sex ever since she was born. But last night, Jiang Liu'er held her hand for the whole night. Even in the morning, Zhao Qing'er had no way of moving his hand. If she was too strong, she could wake Jiang Liu'er up.

Even though she said that waking Jiang Liu'er up didn't really matter, but seeing that he was sleeping so soundly, Zhao Qing'er could not bear to do so. She sighed and could only let Jiang Liu'er continue sleeping beside her.

Her thoughts were extremely simple, but at this moment, Jiang Liu'er was still sleeping. When he opened his eyes, he realized that he had already slept for quite a while, and that he was still a bit unconscious. Jiang Liu'er sighed speechlessly. Previously, he had always felt that his mood was a little delicate. But now, he realized that he had been tightly holding Zhao Qing'er's hand while he was sleeping.

Jiang Liu'er subconsciously looked at Zhao Qing'er's sleeping face. When he saw that she had kept her eyes tightly closed and didn't seem to have woken up, he breathed a sigh of relief. After all, from the looks of it, Zhao Qing'er probably hadn't woken up yet. In other words, Zhao Qing'er didn't know what he had just done, so it was fine that she hadn't noticed. Jiang Liu'er let out a silent sigh of relief in her heart.

Now that he thought about it, he realized that he really didn't know what Zhao Qing'er was thinking. Even if he asked Jiang Liu'er about it, he probably wouldn't be able to find an answer.

However, the only clear thing was that Zhao Qing'er was not awake. At the very least, she probably hadn't noticed what Jiang Liu'er had done before. This made Jiang Liu'er feel slightly relieved. After all, he was afraid that Zhao Qing'er would see his actions. Not only would his glorious image be ruined, he would also leave an impression that he was secretly taking advantage of her when she was asleep.

No matter how one looked at it, it made Jiang Liu'er feel that she had been wrongly accused. Therefore, since Zhao Qing'er wasn't awake, that would be for the best! One thing could at least help Jiang Liu'er escape calamity. It was a good thing for him to be in such a state. However, he still felt bored even in such a state.

If this Zhao Qing'er woke up because of him, then the final result would be the same. At least, for the current Jiang Liu'er, this was the case. He silently glanced at Zhao Qing'er beside him, feeling a little helpless. What should he do to not wake Zhao Qing'er up? Instead, he tried to think of a way to free his hand from her grasp.

Even if he had no other choice, Jiang Liu'er could only grit her teeth and do it. She quietly lifted Zhao Qing'er up before him and slowly and extremely carefully withdrew her hand from her body. Even so, Zhao Qing'er still let out a groan of suspicion and dissatisfaction. Jiang Liu'er immediately slowed down her pace to prevent Zhao Qing'er from feeling uncomfortable.

In this state, it could be said that no matter how careful Jiang Liu'er was, she was still worried that her actions would awaken her.

When he finally took his hand out, he looked at Zhao Qing'er again, but she still didn't move at all. It was as if the sound that Jiang Liu'er had heard earlier was just an illusion on his part. This situation actually made Jiang Liu'er feel slightly relieved; at the very least, it wasn't as bad as he had imagined.

As long as Zhao Qing'er didn't wake up, everything else was fine. He had always been thinking about that thing before, but now, he had gradually forgotten about it. However, after looking at the people around him in silence, he realized that his current situation wasn't too good.

It was true that there was not a single person in the vicinity. However, this seemed to be an abnormal situation. In this sort of villa where only Elder Zhao and Zhao Qing'er lived, there was no sign of them. Jiang Liu'er did not believe the people waiting for him. In such a situation, no one came in to take care of Zhao Qing'er. Instead, they left him alone with Zhao Qing'er. Jiang Liu'er was slightly moved. This clearly showed just how much trust Elder Zhao had in her.

Although he felt that Jiang Liu'er had betrayed his trust, and this was what made him so shameless, it was indeed not his intention to hold onto Zhao Qing'er's hand at that time. Before this, he had already chosen to be quiet.

However, what he didn't expect was that when he fell asleep, he would actually hold Zhao Qing'er's hand. If that happened, then Zhao Qing'er would wake up, and he really wouldn't be able to wash his hands off the Yellow River. In such a situation, Jiang Liu'er could only rejoice that Zhao Qing'er's eyes had been closed. If she had opened them, then she really would have been forced to jump into the river.

Although Jiang Liu'er was thinking like this, the situation in front of him could only make him silently choose to pretend that nothing had happened. Then, he quietly stood up, pretending that he didn't know anything. When he stood up, Jiang Liu'er realized that because Zhao Qing'er's head hadn't been moving for the entire night, his body had become extremely hard, like it was on the verge of breaking down.

Jiang Liu'er could feel the speechlessness in her actions. If he hadn't chosen to sleep with Zhao Qing'er at that time, then there probably wouldn't have been so many unnecessary things happening between him and Zhao Qing'er at that time.

Unfortunately, there had never been so many 'ifs' in this world. Even Jiang Liu'er was in a very stupefied state. In his previous state, he had never thought about what would happen between him and Zhao Qing'er. Therefore, he was still relatively calm. After all, Jiang Liu'er didn't have many thoughts towards Zhao Qing Er. Thus, under the current situation, he chose to remain calm and collected.

Although there weren't many people here to take care of him, which made Jiang Liu'er a bit speechless, he still felt that based on his previous performance, he and Zhao Qing'er might have been misunderstood by Elder Zhao as having a different relationship. Of course, it wasn't an accident that something like this had happened. It was just that under the current circumstances, Jiang Liu'er felt a sense of helplessness. No matter how she said it, she and Zhao Qing'er weren't what Elder Zhao was thinking.

If he was only in that state, he might have chosen to explain things to Elder Zhao. However, right now, Jiang Liu'er chose to wake Zhao Qing'er up first.

"Qing'er?" Looking at the time, he saw that it was already eight in the morning. Jiang Liu'er had chosen to wake Zhao Qing'er up first before doing anything else. Unexpectedly, Zhao Qing'er seemed to be sleeping soundly. In fact, Jiang Liu'er woke up from her sleep as soon as he called her. In this situation, she was a little puzzled. She didn't know what had happened to Zhao Qing'er, but from the looks of it, she felt that Zhao Qing'er's attitude was a little strange.

When Zhao Qing'er opened her eyes, her gaze was locked onto Jiang Liu'er. "You …"

A trace of panic flashed across Zhao Qing'er's eyes when she thought of the scene from before. However, she quickly suppressed it. After all, she still maintained her usual calmness at this time. It was the same even when he was with Jiang Liu'er. Zhao Qing'er believed that no matter what, she would not let Jiang Liu'er think of anything else. "You're awake."

"Yes, yes, I just woke up." Jiang Liu'er tried her best not to meet Zhao Qing'er's gaze. He was more afraid of revealing his guilt.

At this moment, Zhao Qing'er didn't think too much about it. After all, Jiang Liu'er didn't dare to look at her. She also didn't think of any unnecessary thoughts and said, "We are going to eat breakfast."

"Yes." Zhao Qing'er's reaction was within Jiang Liu'er's expectations. She thought that Zhao Qing'er would say something about how she was still feeling tired. After all, wasn't that a common reaction of a little girl? However, what he didn't expect was that Zhao Qing'er's reaction was different from what he had expected. In just a split-second of reaction time, she was able to successfully follow up with Zhao Qing'er's words, "Let's get up immediately and go eat breakfast."

"Alright." Zhao Qing'er seemed to be particularly interested in the breakfast that Jiang Liu'er had mentioned. She immediately got up and prepared to leave, but Jiang Liu'er happened to go somewhere else. "I'm going to prepare. You should get up early."
