Su Man was unconvinced. “What if we’re the ones who get us out in the end? How should we count that?”

“How to count? Well ?perhaps I can give you my puzzle?”

Bai Youwei took out a puzzle from her bag, spread it out in front of them, laying in her palm was three almost identical puzzle pieces.

They had a silver-grey metallic texture, reflecting the flickering light from the fireplace, sparkling brilliantly.

One piece was hers, another was Shen Mo’s, and the last one had been snatched from Old Zhao.

Su Man, Yan Qingwen, and Li Li were all taken aback.

Especially Su Man.

She had mentioned it offhandedly earlier, not really intending to ask for Bai Youwei’s puzzle.

Just as she was about to decline, Bai Youwei suddenly drew back her hand and put the puzzle back in her bag.

“There’s no way I would give it to you.” Bai Youwei responded coldly,”On our last game, I didn’t even charge you for helping you pass.”

Su Man:

Li Li:

Unable to contain his laughter, Yan Qingwen asked, “Are you sure you can pass? You must know that the Inspector didn’t issue this Gold Coin for simple reasons. This game is incredibly difficult.”

Bai Youwei hooked the corner of her lips and squinted at the leaping flames in the fireplace, “Yes, I wonder if I can pass…”

Unconsciously, she was starting to look forward to it

If it were too easy, she would find it dull,

Only on the line between life and death could she truly appreciate being alive.

Therefore

She was really looking forward to it.

Their late-night discussion lasted until midnight.

Everyone then gradually retired to their rooms to rest.

Bai Youwei fell asleep by the fireplace.

Shen Mo took the middle shift of the night, choosing to stay in the living room with her. When the time came to change shift around three am, Bai Youwei’s hair was already dry. Shen Mo carried her upstairs to rest.

Bai Youwei muttered something in her sleep before sinking back into his arms.

That night, Shen Mo only slept for two to three hours but slept peacefully. The house seemed to have a certain magic that allowed everyone to let go of all their defenses and fears, resulting in a peaceful night’s sleep until dawn.

The first thing Shen Mo felt when he woke up the next morning was surprise. It was eerie to have slept so deeply in a strange environment.

The next thing he realized was that the rain had stopped.

The clear blue sky outside the window was spotless and cloud-free. The brilliant sunshine poured in, coating the dull wooden floor with a layer of golden glow, the wood grain rippling like gentle waves in water.

Bai Youwei was laying with her head on his arm. Under the sunshine, her hair shone brightly, and even the tiny hairs on her skin visible were visible — pinkish, soft, her facial expression was mildly calm, devoid of the usual sarcasm and arrogance, only childlike innocence remained.

She was lying sideways in his arms, her small hand resting on his chest, sleeping peacefully.

Shen Mo watched her for a while, thinking about something she had said yesterday.

—Would you sneak a kiss on me while I’m asleep?

Yesterday, he thought her thought pattern was unusual.

Now that he thought about it, his breathing had unconsciously become gentle.

He glanced at the beautiful morning light outside the window again, then swept his gaze over the quiet room. His gaze lowered and fell back on her face.

The sound of his heartbeat was clear.

He leaned in slightly, the tip of his nose brushing against the stray hair on her forehead, causing a slight tickling sensation.

Her eyelashes fluttered, slowly opening her eyes. The light brown eyes, filled with a hint of drowsiness as if on the brink of falling back to sleep.

Shen Mo quietly waited for a while, watching her clear eyes gradually awaken.

He exhaled gently, reached out a hand and placed it on her forehead. She no longer had a fever.

In her drowsiness, Bai Youwei muttered, “Did you hear ?I think there’s music playing?”

Music?

Shen Mo furrowed his eyebrows.

He hadn’t noticed it earlier, but now, he thought he actually heard it…

A faint sound of music, almost inaudible, with a soft tinkling like ?a music box.
