Tang Jin cradled her face in his hands, his breaths uneven as he asked, "Why not?"
"I haven't figured it out yet," Bai Bing said, lowering her eyes.
Hearing this, Tang Jin hesitated, then rolled off her and lay beside her, "Then I'll wait for you to think."
"This isn't something I can figure out in a heartbeat," Bai Bing said.
"It's okay, I can wait for a long time," Tang Jin replied, wrapping an arm around her waist, "but I must be by your side, you can't send me away."
"Okay," Bai Bing consented, "Can you go sleep in the guest room now?"
"No, what if I go sleep in the guest room and you leave in a helicopter? Who will I look for then?" Tang Jin said as he pulled the blanket over them both, "Let's just sleep like this."
"...How is sleeping like this okay?" Bai Bing immediately protested.
With him by her side, she couldn't properly ponder.
"If not this, shall we continue what we were doing just now?" Tang Jin whispered in her ear, his breath teasing her.
