Translator: Paperplane Editor: Caron_
Ji Yi wasn’t sure just how long she and He Jichen were staring at each other for. It wasn’t until her legs started to ache from crouching down that she snapped back to her senses.
She was actually still holding his hand. She hadn’t let go...
Ji Yi hurriedly turned her gaze away from He Jichen and awkwardly loosened her fingers.
As the soft sensation of her hand disappeared, He Jichen furrowed his brows and instinctively looked down at his bandaged hand.
He stared at his empty fingertips for so ti before he ca to his senses.
As she applied the dicine, he stared at that serious expression on her face in a complete daze...
He Jichen secretly took a deep breath as he pushed down the wave of emotions in his chest. That was when he looked up at her.
She seed embarrassed so her head was lowered, revealing a tinge of light red on her fair neck.
The atmosphere in the room beca a little awkward since their eyes just t.
He Jichen lowered his gaze and fell deep in thought for a mont. Then he tried to break the awkwardness. “You...ca looking for ?”
“I-I-I-...” Ji Yi, who hadn’t thought of a good excuse, felt even more dumbfounded by He Jichen’s question. She stamred for a long ti before her eyes swept over to the takeout box on the coffee table. Just to mask her odd behavior, she handed He Jichen the bag. “...I ca to drop off so food!”
“Drop off...so food?” He Jichen was transfixed by what Ji Yi said.
Seeing He Jichen’s reaction, Ji Yi realized what she just said.
Seeing as he hadn’t eaten much for dinner, she uncharacteristically ordered a portion of egg fried rice and delivered it to his room. But because they weren’t very close, she wavered at his door for quite so ti, hesitating to knock... In the end, how did she manage to blurt out what she originally couldn’t bear to say...
To not embarrass herself, Ji Yi instinctively started to explain herself: “...In the evening, I saw that you didn’t eat much at the restaurant, so...”
As Ji Yi said this, she suddenly stopped.
Deep down, she was overco with an urge to bite off her tongue.
She wanted to give herself a way out, to not make herself look so helpless, but how did it beco even more of a ss the more she tried to explain...
Ji Yi hung her head down even lower. Not only did her neck turn red, but her ears turned completely red too.
He Jichen stared at Ji Yi as his heart instantly turned soft; he was reduced to a complete ss.
Though she stamred when she spoke, he could still make out that she saw he hadn’t eaten much at the restaurant, so she especially ca to drop off so food for him...
Does that an she was worried about ?
An indescribable sense of joy crept into He Jichen’s heart. He stared at Ji Yi’s eyes with a shocking warmth and said with an unexpectedly soft voice: “You... ca here just for that?”
“No, no, no!” With no hesitation at all, Ji Yi denied what He Jichen said with three consecutive “No’s.”
The light in He Jichen’s eyes dimd slightly.
Ji Yi tightened her balled up fists; she didn’t notice a change in He Jichen’s expression at all. With all her strength, she racked her brain for so ti before she finally found an excuse to see He Jichen. She finally cried, “I ca to apologize!”
