It was only around midnight when the room finally calmed down .
Perhaps because too many things had happened over the day, but Shi Yao didn't feel at all tired . She closed her eyes and lay down for a while . Eventually, she couldn't hold herself back anymore and reached for her phone . Searching through her contacts to find Lin Jiage's name, she typed a short message: [Are you asleep?]
After sending the message, Shi Yao suddenly realized that her message might have been a little weird .
It didn't feel like their relationship had reached the point where they could ask whether the other person was asleep or not . . .
But in any case, from what I know about Lin Jiage, he probably won't reply to my message .
With this thought in mind, Shi Yao began typing out another message .
However, before she could finish typing what she wanted to say, a new notification popped up on her screen .
Lin Jiage: No .

Ahh . . . My assumption just suffered a heavy slap . . .
Shi Yao quietly touched her face for a moment before she continued typing out her message . However, another notification popped up at that moment .
Lin Jiage: What's wrong?
It was a double slap . Her face was starting to sting a little . . .
Shi Yao touched her face once more before finishing up her message and sent it over: [I wanted to tell you something . ]
Lin Jiage replied instantly: [?]
This was a very Lin Jiage-ish response . . . Sensing that there was no problem with it, she began to type .
But halfway through her draft, Lin Jiage sent over yet another message: [What's wrong?]

Shi Yao paused in mid-action . Lin Jiage's two consecutive messages had left her feeling flustered—his actions were a little too flattering .
And this was very un-Lin-Jiage-ish behavior . . . When had he ever replied to her messages so actively? Unless there was something important to speak about, he would stingily retain as many words as he could . . .
Shi Yao looked at her conversation history with Lin Jiage once more, and the more she looked at it, the more she felt that something was off .
Could it be that the person on the other side . . . isn't Lin Jiage at all?
With this thought in mind, Shi Yao erased her current message and typed a new one out: [May I know if you're Lin Jiage?]
. . .
Lin Jiage had already crawled into bed by eleven-thirty .
He was just about to fall asleep when the phone he'd put on silent mode suddenly lit up next to his ear .

Interrupted from his sleep, Lin Jiage picked up the phone in an irritated mood to see who just messaged him .
[Are you asleep?]
It was a message from Soft Bun .
Three simple words, but it suddenly turned the deep night a little inexplicably . . . warm . . .
His fatigue disappeared without a trace as he quickly picked up his phone and replied with a 'No' to her .
After which, he hesitated for a moment before adding: [What's wrong?]
Soft Bun quickly responded: [I wanted to tell you something . ]
Lin Jiage responded with his usual [?] but then felt that such a response might be a little too cold . So, he sent another message with two words: [What's wrong?]
At this moment, he suddenly felt a little thirsty, so he got off his bed to grab a drink .
However, barely after he got up, her message arrived: [May I know if you're Lin Jiage?]
You don't say! If I'm not Lin Jiage, am I Gejia Lin?
While pouring a cup of water, Lin Jiage typed on his phone: [You think?]
It took a long time before she replied to that message .
While drinking the cup of water, Lin Jiage unlocked his phone screen to take a look .
Shi Yao had replied with a single word: [Grandpa]
Grandpa? Lin Jiage immediately choked .
You must be out of your mind, who wants to be your grandpa! I'm still a young man! Are you trying to murder your husband in the middle of the night?
