Ning Xixi was stunned for two seconds before she reacted.
"Um... we can hold hands when we grow up!"
Ji Yebai turned his face away proudly, completely ignoring Ning Xixi this ti.
Two years later, he hadn’t even held Ning Xixi’s hand! What a waste!
Ning Xixi laughed so hard her stomach hurt, finally feeling a weight lifted from her heart.
No matter what, Ji Yebai was out of danger.
That was good, very good.
She pulled out her workbook from her bag, lay on the bed, and started doing her howork, while Ji Yebai couldn’t resist turning to sneak a peek at her.
Seeing her frowning and biting her pen, he couldn’t help but chuckle.
"Don’t understand it?"
"Um..." Ning Xixi complained, "It’s so difficult, the teacher who set these questions is so weird~!"
"Let have a look," he commanded, tugging at her.
Ning Xixi exclaid, "You only rember up to junior high, right? What good will it do showing you? This is a high school problem!"
Despite her complaints, she still held up the workbook to Ji Yebai.
Well, might as well try him, just in case he knows how!
Ji Yebai glanced at the problem and, after thinking briefly, started thodically explaining it to Ning Xixi.
Ning Xixi was amazed, "Ji Yebai, you’re so smart..."
Ji Yebai glanced at her with disdain, "Maybe you’re just too dumb."
Ning Xixi: ...!!
Angrily, she moved to the side bed, "I’m not talking to you anymore!"
Ji Yebai sneered, "Moving so far away, it’ll be troubleso if you can’t solve it and have to co to this young master again."
"I won’t ask you! I can do it! I am a high school student!" Ning Xixi clenched her little fists, asserting confidently.
A few minutes later.
She quietly moved her stool a bit, her voice tiny as a mosquito’s hum, "How do I write this problem..."
"Here, solve this problem like this..."
Ji Yebai’s low voice held a magnetic quality, tears welled up in Ning Xixi’s eyes internally, what was the phrase about shooting oneself in the foot?
This, is it!
...
Ji Yebai’s health gradually improved, and he was able to get out of bed and walk.
That day, an unwelco visitor ca to the hospital room—
Gong Xiu.
He was wearing a hospital gown, his leg in a cast.
Ji Yebai greeted him upon seeing him, "Gong Xiu, you’re here."
Gong Xiu looked awkward, and Ning Xixi felt even more embarrassed.
Gong Xiu’s injury had been caused by people Ji Yebai ordered, yet ironically, Ji Yebai had forgotten all about it.
"I ca to see you, to check on how you are. You seem to be recovering quite well," Gong Xiu said politely.
"That, Xixi, if it’s convenient, can I talk to you?" Gong Xiu turned to Ning Xixi, a complex expression in his peach blossom eyes.
Perhaps the saying is true, what you can’t have is the best.
Back when Ning Xixi followed him around, he didn’t appreciate it.
Now that Ning Xixi was out of reach for him, he felt overwhelming regret.
"No way!"
"No way!"
Ji Yebai and Ning Xixi answered in unison.
An eerie silence fell in the room for a mont, Gong Xiu gave a bitter smile, "I understand..."
He dejectedly left the ward.
Ji Yebai eyed his retreating figure with hostility, how dare he covet his woman?
No way, Ning Xixi was his!
As Ji Yebai looked at Ning Xixi, his gaze gradually beca more aggressive and possessive...
Ning Xixi, completely oblivious, flipped through the fruits and snacks in the room, asking, "Is there anything you’d like to eat?"
"Yes."
Before another word was said, he grabbed Ning Xixi and pinned her on the bed, his fit and strong body imdiately covering hers!
