Shen Wan's question caught Shi Nian off guard, making her lose focus even in front of Shen Wan.
The most enchanting bedtime story she'd ever heard?
The most enchanting bedtime story she "heard" came from a person. However, those stories weren't heard with her ears, but written, character by character, in her palm by that person's long fingers. She had to patiently connect each character slowly to "understand" those stories.
Listening to someone tell a story usually encapsulates around 300 words per minute, but writing those words carefully with a fingertip takes almost 10 minutes. Meaning, her "bedtime story" listening speed was reduced to one-tenth of a normal pace...
Because the storytelling pace slowed down tenfold, those unbearable times quickened for her, giving that eternal night and day indistinguishable darkness a glimmer of hope.
Such slow and difficult "listening" is one of the few pieces from her life that she might never forget.
