Yan Jinsu originally just wanted to lie down for a bit, but with Xiao Shi nestling in and Xiaojiu naturally drawing close, her hand resting on Xiaojiu's body, mother and children gradually synchronized their breathing. Before long, Yan Jinsu fell asleep.
Having run in the rain for several hours, her body was already overburdened. As for the husband she was worried about, she had set aside that concern for now.
As dawn broke, Yan Jinsu was abruptly awoken by the clamor outside the room.
Who could that be? The noisy voices outside the hall made her, fresh from sleep and still somewhat befuddled, run her fingers through her shoulder-length hair...
Yan Jinsu stirred, and the two children also opened their eyes.
Seeing their mommy awake brought smiles to Xiaojiu and Xiao Shi as they each called out, "Ya, ya."
At this moment, aside from her own children, Da Hong and Er Qiang were also nowhere to be seen.
How deeply had she slept?
