The next day, Chujiujiu and Chouyan arrived at the seaside and quickly made their way to the villa according to the address given by Nanke. The first floor was empty, so they hurried upstairs to the bedroom.
Chujiujiu pushed open the bedroom door and saw Shenmu lying in bed, sound asleep. Nanke was sprawled on the floor, snoring loudly.
Chouyan immediately went to check on Shenmu, while Chujiujiu went to give Nanke a pat on the face. "Nanke! Wake up!"
Nanke opened his eyes, exhaustion evident in their depths. If he wasn't so tired, he would have been extremely alert.
Chujiujiu was surprised. "You haven't slept all night? Your eyes are so bloodshot."
Nanke rubbed his hair and sat up, annoyed. "Don't even mention it. I spent the whole night singing and telling stories just to get her to take her medicine and go to sleep. It's more tiring than fighting in the ring! How did she become so delicate this year? She didn't even whimper when the knife was plunged into her stomach."
