Midnight. The key creaked, the door thudded open. Feng Xin crossed the threshold, kicked off heavy boots, and half-heartedly tossed them toward the hanger. The apartment was silent save for the kitchen clock. He didn't turn on the light; his eyes burned with fatigue. He unbuttoned his bulletproof vest, letting it fall with a thud. Adrenaline still trembled in his fingers. He dragged himself to the couch, jacket stained with dust and sweat, collapsing face down into a pillow. Muscles ached, back burned. A door creaked—Mu Qing had woken. Feng Xin didn't move, pressing deeper into the sofa, eyes closed. Let him swear later. He just wanted to sleep.
