As her eyes adjusted to the warm light, Ruby pulled down his hand and let out a soft "mmm".
Having only just woken up, her voice was still slightly nasal, raspy.
"I just had a dream about my grandmother and she came to say goodbye to me."
Levi didn't say anything, his eyes sunken as he looked at her.
It was a moment before he let out a soft sigh and rubbed his fingertips twice over the ends of her eyes, "Now that you've said goodbye, face the life ahead."
Ruby did not retort and nodded, "I understand, Grandma would not want me to dwell on the past, and neither would I."
Having said that, she didn't mention the matter again, took the water he handed her and took two sips, asking casually, "How long did I sleep?"
Levi replied, "A day or so."
At these words, Ruby moved with a start, her eyes widened and her doze all away: "...... How long?"
Looking at her somewhat unbelievable look, Levi hooked his lips and smiled, "I didn't expect you to be so sleepy, since you came back yesterday evening, you have been sleeping until now, it seems that you are really tired."
Ruby glanced at the mobile phone on her bedside, it was now after eight o'clock, which meant that she had slept for more than a whole day.
Not expecting to be able to sleep for so long, she twitched her eyebrows and asked, "Where is Denis?"
When she came back yesterday, she wanted to talk to Denis first about where he should go, but her head was so tired that she thought she'd wake up and talk about it.
Levi raised his eyebrow: "Only the moment you wake up, you want to find another man, aren't you afraid that your husband will be jealous?"
She knew that he was deliberately teasing her, but when she heard the word "husband", Ruby's heart involuntarily throbbed and her face turned slightly unnatural.
She pursed her lips and shoved the glass of water back into his hands, muttering uncharitably, "Just bullshit."
With that, she was about to roll over and get out of bed.
Levi laughed and grabbed her wrist, saying in a warm voice, "All right, if you have anything to say, wait until you finish eating. You've slept for so long and haven't eaten for more than a day, aren't you hungry?"
Only when his words fell, Ruby's stomach growled twice in perfect response.
Ruby: "......"
Looking at her slightly embarrassed expression, Levi couldn't help himself, putting the water glass on the bed and getting up, "I'll go and cook you a bowl of beef noodles."
......
These days, Ruby had never had an appetite, but now, perhaps because she had been hungry for a long time, a bowl of beef noodles was quickly wiped out by her.
"Still eating?" Levi asked.
Ruby shook her head, wiped the corner of her mouth and said, "I have something to say to Denis."
Levi was silent and said, "Denis has already left."
