Jiang Xuecheng stood outside Su Wan's door. He could not help but frown when he did not receive a response.

Why isn't the door open yet?

Could it be that Su Wan went out for a walk?

Jiang Xuecheng's handsome frown deepened. He recalled that Su Wan had said that she wanted to see Nono more a few days ago. He wondered if Su Wan had gone to the robot maintenance place to look for Nono.

During this period of time, Jiang Xuecheng could tell how much Su Wan liked that worn-out robot.

Perhaps in Su Wan's heart, Nono was more like her relative than a robot, like her younger brother or her child.

Jiang Xuecheng pursed his lips. Just as he was about to go downstairs to look for Su Wan, he suddenly remembered that he had a key. He could go in and take a look first.

He lowered his head, took out the key from his pocket, and inserted it into the lock core…

The door opened quietly.

Jiang Xuecheng looked inside and realized that Su Wan was sound asleep.

She did not even turn off the table lamp after reading. The soft white warm light fell on Su Wan's body, making her look as beautiful as jade.

She laid her small head on the table. Beside her hand, a thick interstellar common language book had been opened. From time to time, the footer would flip because of the wind outside the window.

A faint smile could not help but appear on the corner of Jiang Xuecheng's lips.

He walked in with extremely light steps and closed the door of the room, afraid that he would disturb Su Wan.

Jiang Xuecheng walked to Su Wan's side and looked at her sleeping face without saying a word.

Su Wan looked surprisingly good when she was asleep. There was a hint of a girl's naivety and a hint of innocence.

Under the soft white light, Su Wan was wrapped in a loose skirt. She looked extremely slim. Her black hair fell down like a waterfall, half-covering the side of her face.

With a beauty by his side, life was peaceful.

Jiang Xuecheng could not help but reach out and touch Su Wan's face with his well-defined fingers.

His breathing was very shallow, and his fingers were very light, as if he was afraid of hurting a rare treasure.

But wasn't that right? To Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan was the rare treasure in his heart, the kind that would never be exchanged for gold.

"Wan Wan…"

Jiang Xuecheng's lips moved slightly, and he silently called Su Wan's name.

His cold and stern eyes were unbelievably gentle at this moment, with a strong sense of attachment and longing.

Jiang Xuecheng thought of the CHK Virus No.3 that existed in Su Wan's body, and it was like a ticking time bomb strapped to her body. His thin lips pursed into a straight line, and his heart throbbed.

Wan Wan, don't be afraid…

I will do everything in my power to protect you well.

Jiang Xuecheng's eyes narrowed slightly. He gazed at Su Wan's peaceful sleeping face and could not help but lower his head and peck Su Wan on the side of her cheek.

The faint fragrance of Su Wan's body floated up from his nostrils. Jiang Xuecheng smiled and could not help but take a few more sniffs.

As if feeling the proximity of Jiang Xuecheng, Su Wan felt slightly uncomfortable in her sleep. Her long eyelashes fluttered like the wings of a butterfly.

Only then did Jiang Xuecheng notice that there was a little greenish-gray color under Su Wan's eyes.

Was it because she had not rested well these past few days?

Although Su Wan had been sleeping longer recently, the quality of her sleep seemed to be very poor.

Otherwise, she would not have fallen asleep while reading.

Was CHK Virus No.3 causing trouble?

A trace of depression flashed across Jiang Xuecheng's dark pupils. It was probably because of CHK Virus No.3.

The high priest had said that a month and a half was the incubation period of virus in the human body.

It had been so long since Su Wan had been infected with the virus. CHK Virus No.3 had already reached this critical point in Su Wan's body.

Then, Su Wan would feel her body becoming increasingly tired, and she would easily fall asleep during the day. When the attack was intense, her limbs would suddenly feel intense pain and begin to twitch. If it was prolonged, her body's functions would gradually deteriorate…

Jiang Xuecheng's eyes were slightly astringent, and he felt suffocated in his heart.

If it was possible, he really wished that he could bear all of this on Su Wan's behalf.

The high priest herself had said that she only had the antidote for easing the symptoms of the CHK Virus No.3 at the moment, and she had yet to find a way to cure it.

Once she finds a way to cure it, Jiang Xuecheng would only think of torturing the high priest until it is worse than death for her!

Jiang Xuecheng's expression was cold. When he lowered his head and saw Su Wan, his gaze softened again.

He reached out and turned off the reading lamp on Su Wan's desk. Then, he carefully picked up Su Wan, wanting to carry her into the quilt.

After all, it was not comfortable to sleep while sitting down.

At this moment, Su Wan suddenly trembled in Jiang Xuecheng's arms in a daze.

"Xuecheng…"

She murmured unconsciously, as soft as a marshmallow.

Jiang Xuecheng was shocked and almost thought that Su Wan had woken up.

However, when Jiang Xuecheng took a closer look, he realized that Su Wan had not actually woken up.

Jiang Xuecheng smiled. He lifted the blanket and gently put Su Wan down on the bed.

In the end, Su Wan moved again. Her face was directly pressed against Jiang Xuecheng's lapel. She rubbed against him like a small animal, as if she was embracing heaven.

Jiang Xuecheng could not help but laugh and shake his head. When Su Wan was awake, he did not realize that she was so attached to him.

Jiang Xuecheng reached out and stroked Su Wan's hair. Su Wan was finally obedient. Then, Jiang Xuecheng carefully put Su Wan down and tucked her in.

After doing all this, Jiang Xuecheng sat next to her. Suddenly, he wanted to quietly stand by Su Wan's side and watch her sleep.

As long as he watched quietly, he would feel an inexplicable satisfaction, as if he had the whole world.

All of a sudden, Jiang Xuecheng noticed a small water stain on his front lapel.

It can't be!

Su Wan drooled when she slept?

Jiang Xuecheng was the type of person who was the most obsessed with cleanliness, but strangely, the first thought that came to his mind was not disgust, nor was he using a tissue to wipe himself clean. Instead, he wanted to use this to make fun of Su Wan when she woke up.

It turned out that Su Wan had changed him so much without him knowing.

He was only like this with Su Wan.

Jiang Xuecheng walked to a table not far away, took a few tissues from it, and began to wipe the corner of Su Wan's mouth.

As if awakened by this action, Su Wan opened her eyes in a daze. Her pair of watery almond-shaped eyes looked at Jiang Xuecheng with a dazed expression.

"Xuecheng, what are you doing?"

Jiang Xuecheng did not expect Su Wan to wake up in the end. After being stunned for a moment, he smiled mischievously and pinched the side of Su Wan's cheek.

"Wiping the saliva of some big sloth."

When Su Wan heard Jiang Xuecheng's teasing words, she instantly became clear-headed.

She quivered and burst out of the quilt, her expression indignant.

"You're lying! How could I possibly drool?"

When Jiang Xuecheng heard this, he pointed at his lapel with a straight face. The suspicious water stain was very obvious.

"The evidence is still there. Someone wants to deny it?"

Su Wan looked at Jiang Xuecheng's lapel in a daze, her face flushed red…
