Think it, do it.
He got up, picked up the spare key he had deliberately acquired earlier, quietly unlocked the door, and entered the room next door.
However, he had barely reached the bedside when he was discovered.
"Who is it?"
Su Qiao shot upright and warily studied the figure by the bed through the cold white moonlight filtering in through the half-drawn curtains.
"It's me." He hadn't expected this little thing to be so alert.
Qin Mohan, who had originally planned to sneak into bed, could only speak up.
Hearing the familiar voice, Su Qiao relaxed slightly, though her tone remained unpleasant. "What are you doing here?"
In the middle of the night, how had this man even gotten in?
Qin Mohan stood by the bed and remained silent for a long time. He waited until Su Qiao was beginning to lose patience before saying helplessly, "I have a headache."
His headaches really had been severe these past few days.
Especially when he stared at his phone every day, only to receive not a single word beyond "Contact me if anything comes up."
He hadn't even received a perfunctory "Good morning" or "Good night," which made his headache even worse.
Huh? When did the Darkening Value drop to 5/10?
444 had been keeping an eye on things online all night and was rather excited. Qin Mohan had already been in the room for quite a while before it noticed him.
It habitually scanned him and discovered an astonishing surprise.
The Great Demon King's Darkening Value had actually dropped from 8/10 to 5/10.
It had fallen by three points in one go. What good deed had its host done?
"If you have a headache, go see a doctor." What good would telling her do?
And he had suddenly run into her room in the middle of the night and scared her.
Su Qiao rolled her eyes, thoroughly speechless.
By the moonlight streaming in through the window, Qin Mohan clearly saw the annoyed expression on her face and nearly burst out laughing.
However, for the sake of his objective, he forcibly held it back.
He weakly showed his vulnerability. "I haven't slept well for more than half a month. At most, I can only sleep two hours a day."
In front of other people, he would absolutely never do such a thing.
No matter how bad his headache was or how unable he was to sleep, he would never show weakness or use this method to win someone's sympathy.
Yet in front of Su Qiao, he had done so without thinking.
Actually, even he found this surprising.
Of course, if this could truly earn her sympathy and help him achieve his goal, he didn't mind showing weakness.
"Your insomnia is that bad?"
How had this man survived on two hours of sleep a day?
Su Qiao was genuinely surprised.
Normally, when she saw his handsome face kept cold, he only seemed a little gloomy and impatient. Nothing about him suggested this.
Qin Mohan quietly curved his thin lips and took the opportunity to sit on the edge of the bed. He even deliberately rubbed his somewhat sore eyes.
His voice lowered, carrying a hint of desolation.
"Mm. I was bitten by a venomous snake before. It left behind aftereffects, and I almost went blind."
"Is there still poison in your system?"
Hearing him say that he had almost gone blind, Su Qiao lifted the thin blanket covering her, then switched on the bedside lamp.
She turned and leaned in close to the man, carefully examining his eyes.
His pupils were blackish brown and looked clear and bright. There shouldn't be any problems anymore.
However, there really were many red veins at the corners of his eyes, and his lower eyelids were slightly bluish.
He did indeed look like someone who hadn't slept well for a long time.
Qin Mohan hadn't expected her to suddenly turn on the light, much less that she would suddenly lean close to him.
Her warm breath brushed across his face, leaving him momentarily unsure how to react.
A flush spread visibly across his cheeks, and in the end, even the roots of his ears turned red.
Especially when he caught that familiar, pleasant pear-blossom fragrance on her, his entire body stiffened.
He lowered his head, instinctively trying to avert his gaze, only to find that he had no idea where to look now.
