Since she didn’t have to worry about Pei Jing, Jiang Ran felt at ease.

The two of them didn’t go inside but instead took a walk to the East Courtyard.

Separated by a courtyard, they could talk with the lights on without worrying about disturbing the rest of the family.

During the day, Pei Huai had already taken a rough tour of the entire courtyard house.

But at that time he just took a quick look; the feeling was completely different from now.

In the lanterns under the gallery, there were also light bulbs; turning them on now cast a dim light.

The light was hazy, only allowing them to vaguely see the scene in the courtyard.

But for Jiang Ran and Pei Huai at this moment, this bit of light was more than enough.

The two walked around the courtyard once. After Pei Huai carefully looked at the herbs Jiang Ran planted, they sat under the gallery.

The moonlight tonight was just right; the moon was particularly bright and very round.

To better enjoy the moon, they simply turned off the lights.

Jiang Ran and Pei Huai sat shoulder to shoulder, both looking up at the moon in the sky.

As they watched, Jiang Ran heard Pei Huai say, "Are you tired? If you are, just lean your head on me."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Ran silently laughed.

She didn’t say anything but instead followed Pei Huai’s suggestion and rested her head on his shoulder.

Jiang Ran didn’t know when she fell asleep; her last memory still lingered at that moment.

It was only when she woke up that she realized she was already lying in bed.

Jiang Ran opened her eyes, looking at the top of the bed canopy, feeling a bit disoriented.

How did she return to the room?

Whose room was this?

Thinking of this, Jiang Ran immediately sat up.

When she found that her clothes from yesterday were still properly worn on her and this was indeed her room, Jiang Ran finally exhaled a breath of relief.

Upon realizing her delayed alertness, Jiang Ran couldn’t help but feel amused.

How could Pei Huai possibly be that kind of person?

Having slept so soundly last night, Jiang Ran simply stood up, opened the wardrobe, found a change of clothes, and prepared to take a bath.

Just as she opened the door to go out, she saw Pei Jing jumping around in the courtyard, with Pei Huai sitting at the table, smiling as he watched Pei Jing.

Both father and son heard the sound of the door opening and turned simultaneously to look at her.

Pei Huai gave Jiang Ran a smile, "Awake?"

Jiang Ran barely had time to nod before Pei Jing had already rushed over and hugged her leg.

"Mommy."

Pei Jing looked up at Jiang Ran, "Mommy, why didn’t you change clothes today?"

Despite Pei Jing’s young age, he had a keen eye for observation.

In Pei Jing’s memory, Jiang Ran changed clothes every day.

Now, seeing Jiang Ran not change clothes naturally felt strange.

Hearing Pei Jing’s question, Jiang Ran laughed.

"Because Mommy was too tired last night and fell asleep without changing clothes. Mommy is going to take a bath and change now. Little Jing, play with Daddy, okay?"

"Okay!"

After reassuring Pei Jing, Jiang Ran gave Pei Huai a smile and then carried her clothes to the bathroom.

Fortunately, they had several bathrooms, so even if Jiang Ran took a morning bath, it wouldn’t disrupt anyone else.

Since it was morning, Jiang Ran decided to wash her hair. Anyway, the weather was good, and it would dry quickly, so she didn’t need to blow dry it.

Actually, if she could avoid blow-drying her hair, Jiang Ran preferred not to blow-dry.

Plus, blow-drying too much isn’t good for the hair.
