Ji Weitian's nerves were on edge, and she was so frightened that she sprang up from the bed, snatching the cell phone from her daughter's hand and turning it off without a second thought.
Seeing Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling freeze, she calmed down for a few seconds and explained with a serious face, "Little baby, mommy has to go to work today... I was just pretending to lie down for a while, playing hide and seek with you. Now the game is over, and mommy has to go to work right away."
As she spoke, Ji Weitian resigned herself to crawling out from under the still-cold covers and, holding her little treasure, walked over to the wardrobe to pick out clothes.
After changing, she grabbed her purse and headed out the door with her daughter.
"Mommy will drop you off at your grandparents' first," Ji Weitian said, leading her daughter by one hand and unable to suppress a yawn with the other.
She hadn't slept well the night before and felt overcome with drowsiness after her bath.
