Ning Xixi didn’t know what was wrong with herself, however, just thinking about Ji Yebai’s silhouette from earlier made her feel inexplicably suffocated.
Yet she overestimated her physical capacity, as her legs softened just as she got out of bed, nearly collapsing to the ground.
A pair of strong hands tily supported her.
"Take it slow."
Ning Xixi wanted to shrug him off but was restrained, her wrist firmly grasped in his hand, biting her lip, she said, "Gong Xiu, why did you lie to ?"
"I didn’t lie to you; you misunderstood," Gong Xiu spoke in a lazy and luxurious tone, looking down at the girl in his arms.
It’s the sa face, yet it seed to change sohow.
His eyelashes, long like ink feathers, fluttered casting beautiful shadows, his features refined, a faint bite mark visible on his lips...
The rhythm of the left atrium stopped for a beat.
A heart flutter, as if it only took a second...
A mont of daze allowed Ning Xixi to find a gap, forcefully breaking free, and rushing towards the door without looking back.
...
Ning Xixi found Ji Yebai at the rooftop.
He was against the light, the winter sun cast a golden hue on him, warm and dazzling. His sculptured handso face emitted a beautiful side profile.
The rooftop of Muying was the highest building on campus. Ji Yebai stood there, tall and straight, overlooking the entire school, as if a king surveying his land.
Ning Xixi slowly moved next to him like a tortoise, greeting softly, "Hi."
Ji Yebai turned, rebuking sharply, "Who allowed you up here? Get down!"
It was well-known that the rooftop of Muying was out of bounds, even Xiao Xichen wasn’t allowed up there.
Ning Xixi stepped back awkwardly, "Well... Regardless, I still have to thank you. Thank you for taking to the infirmary, thank you for buying dicine for . I misunderstood, thinking it was Gong Xiu who saved ..."
Ji Yebai was silent for a few seconds, disdainfully saying, "Does it make any difference whether I saved you or not? Anyway, you have your Gong Xiu brother, that’s enough."
Ning Xixi didn’t know what to say.
From her understanding, this kind of Ji Yebai was the hardest to pacify.
Her nose twitched, the wind at the rooftop sowhat cold, making her uncontrollably curl up her neck.
"Let’s make up... Okay?"
She finally stuttered out after a long ti.
Ji Yebai’s hand at his side slowly clenched into a fist.
Ning Xixi looked straight at him, her clear eyes misting slightly with moisture.
If it weren’t for that incident...
If that hadn’t happened, they wouldn’t have fought, wouldn’t have broken up, wouldn’t have had their relationship plumt to freezing point for so long...
One second, two seconds...
"Do you think you are a primary school student, where a simple ’sorry’ and ’it’s okay’ can solve everything?" Ji Yebai said coolly.
"Then I’ll say it twice, sorry, sorry!"
"Tch, idiot."
Despite the scold, a sweet smile spread across Ning Xixi’s lips.
She knew that such words ant Ji Yebai was already making concessions.
"You should spend your ti exercising instead of being silly; I don’t want to wait for uncle to co back only to find you lying in a hospital."
At those words, Ning Xixi lowered her head, "He wouldn’t care about my life or death."
Ji Yebai’s Adam’s apple moved, "Soone cares."
"Who cares..." Ning Xixi sighed.
"I care." A soft voice, quickly carried away in the wind.
Ning Xixi asked perplexedly, "What did you just say?"
