Lin Banxia didn't know when she had fallen asleep, but by the time she woke up, the sky outside the window was already bright.
She groggily rubbed her eyes, and after adjusting to the light, she saw Huo Yanting sitting on the sofa, impeccably dressed in a suit.
He was holding a finance magazine in his hand and seemed completely engrossed in it.
"Awake?" The man didn't even lift his eyelids; with his sharp instincts alone, he detected the sound of her waking up.
"What time is it?" Lin Banxia asked lazily.
"Past eight!"
Lin Banxia lowered her head to inspect her injuries. They were mainly surface wounds, and after being disinfected, they had already begun to scab over.
Of course, having been brutally beaten, waking up after a night's sleep still left her entire body aching as if she had been run over by a large truck.
"Husband, today… I might need to ask for leave again." In her current state, going to the office was simply out of the question.
