Can you hear it?
Those words, have they reached your dreams?
...
He within the window still lay in deep slumber.
She outside the window, tears streaming down her face.
...
Three days later, Ji Yebai was transferred from the ICU to a regular ward.
Ning Xixi returned to Muying for classes, and every day after school, she hurried to the hospital to take care of Ji Yebai.
Before she knew it, a week had passed.
On a weekend afternoon, Ning Xixi pulled back the curtains, allowing the warm sunlight to pour in. She picked up a book and began reading softly to Ji Yebai.
"If you happened to fall in love with a flower on a certain planet. Then, as long as you gaze up at the starry sky at night, you would feel as if the myriad stars are like blossoming flowers."
"I will reside on one of those stars, smiling on a star sowhere, and whenever you look up at the sky at night, it will seem as though all the stars are smiling with ."
"..."
In the gentle sweet voice, Ji Yebai seed to feel sothing, his fingers twitching slightly.
Ning Xixi, engrossed in reading, did not notice.
After reading half of the book, the lazy sunshine made her drowsy. Holding Ji Yebai’s hand, she fell asleep beside his bed.
...
His long eyelashes fluttered a few tis before his eyes opened slowly.
Those deep eyes carried a touch of confusion, along with discomfort against the glaring daylight.
It took Ji Yebai two minutes to adjust to the brightness before him.
His eyes moved, and his gaze fell upon Ning Xixi’s face beside the bed.
Her delicate and radiant face, still a bit childish, already showed traces of stunning beauty.
The sunlight spread a soft glow on her face, warm and tender, her skin as delicate as fine porcelain.
Ning Xixi?
He struggled to swallow, with effort he uttered the syllables, "Hey, wake up."
His voice was hoarse from disuse.
Ning Xixi slowly ca to, her bewildered gaze t Ji Yebai’s.
Their eyes locked.
"Dabai! You’re awake!" Ning Xixi was so excited she was nearly in tears.
Finally awake!
Whimpering, all her waiting had not been in vain!
Ji Yebai seed unused to her calling him "Dabai," frowning, he asked, "Why are you here?"
"You were hurt, I’ve been waiting for you to wake up..." Ning Xixi didn’t catch the shift in his attitude.
"Oh."
Ji Yebai replied indifferently, "I’m awake now, you can go find Gong Xiu."
Nani?
Find Gong Xiu?
Why should she look for Gong Xiu?
"Do you have sothing to ask him?" Ning Xixi asked, blinking in confusion.
Ji Yebai withdrew his hand.
"Aren’t you fond of him? No need to keep company, go find him."
She likes Gong Xiu? What nonsense!
Wait... she felt that sothing was off about Ji Yebai.
"Dabai, you must be joking with ..." Ning Xixi’s eyes pleaded pitifully, "Please stop teasing , it’s not fun at all..."
"Who’s joking with you!" Ji Yebai snapped irritably, "Get out, I don’t want to see you."
Ning Xixi’s eyes reddened, "Why are you being so an!"
"That’s just how this young master is."
Ning Xixi puffed her cheeks, huffed and stood up. She started walking towards the door but ultimately couldn’t bear it and turned back to press the call button, summoning the doctor and nurses.
She sat alone in the garden, sulking.
Annoying! He had been so sentintal before, and now that he’s awake, does he regret saving her? His attitude towards her had beco so awful!
A wave of inexplicable grievance spread unchecked within her heart.
