When the sky darkened, Bai Xiao took the initiative to seek out Doctor Zhu for a sedative injection.
"Young Madam, don't worry, after this shot, you'll sleep through the night until dawn," Doctor Zhu said as he took out the syringe.
Bai Xiao, unconvinced, personally inspected the needle: "The syringe is full, are you sure you haven't got it wrong?"
"No." Doctor Zhu's face fell in displeasure—his professionalism was being questioned!
"Fine then! If anything is wrong, it's on you," Bai Xiao rolled up her sleeve and accepted the injection.
This was a slow-acting sedative; it wouldn't make Bai Xiao lose consciousness immediately. After the shot, she lay down as usual and called out to Ye Huang, "Husband, I'm going to sleep first, ha!"
It seemed like any other day when she'd say goodnight.
"Okay." Ye Huang felt a tightness in his heart.
Drowsiness gradually overtook her, and Bai Xiao closed her eyes, slowly drifting off to sleep.
