Li Weihuan had lost his ring and his heart; naturally, she wanted to figure out a way to bring him back.
When curious people ca to ask, she looked up again and saw nothing but darkness, her consciousness blurred!
She reached out and groped around, wanting to grab onto sothing, because the darkness scared her.
That sensation reminded her of running in the darkness six years ago!
She still rembered telling herself to find the police at that ti.
If she found the police, they could save her parents.
But when she eventually found the police, there was nothing on the streets apart from the eerie darkness.
She stood there biting her lip, stubbornly refusing to leave, saying she was waiting for her parents to co back…
A warm hand touched her palm, holding her slightly trembling little hand tightly.
She paused for a mont, and inexplicably beca peaceful.
On her quivering wet eyelashes, there were still traces of tears.
…
When Nanxi woke up, she moved her body and felt energyless all over.
Her head was dizzy, and she also felt slightly nauseous…
She frowned and opened her eyes.
Her vision gradually sharpened, carving out the face of a man piece by piece.
She was stunned for a mont; her thin lips moved slightly, almost subconsciously reaching out to touch the man’s face –
“Why…
why can I always see you in my dreams?”
The man by the bed shivered, and the two people standing behind him silently exited the room, closing the door behind them.
…
Outside the room, Gui Xi looked at Liang Qiaoqiao who was waiting outside and asked with curiosity, “Qiaoqiao, is she really your cousin?
Blood-related?”
Liang Qiaoqiao gave him a glance, put her hands on her hips, “What, we don’t look alike?”
Gui Xi smiled, “No, that’s not what I ant.
I just think fate is mystical; we all revolve and still end up in the sa circle…
Okay, enough about this.
It’s noon, shall we have lunch together?”
Liang Qiaoqiao’s refined face lit up, “What, is Doctor Gui asking out?”
Gui Xi shrugged, “It would be an honor.”
Liang Qiaoqiao pursed her lips, the corners of her bright lips curled up in a smile, “Sure, if Doctor Gui is treating, I can’t refuse.”
Gui Xi’s mood imdiately brightened.
He looked at Mo Yan standing behind Liang Qiaoqiao, “Would you like to join us?”
Mo Yan gave him a glance.
It was clear Gui Xi didn’t really want to invite him.
He didn’t care, he casually said, “No need!
Thanks!”
Gui Xi had a regretful expression, “Well, I won’t force you!” He told Liang Qiaoqiao, “Qiaoqiao, let’s go!”
Liang Qiaoqiao glanced at Mo Yan and nodded.
Then she walked away with Gui Xi.
…
Inside the ward, Nanxi felt like everything was a dream.
What she didn’t know was that her muttering in sleep had caused quite a ripple in the heart of the man sitting next to the bed…
Lu Yinchu took a deep breath to suppress the burgeoning emotions in his heart.
Was he the one who cared too much?
He reached out a hand, touching her pale cheek and her dry lips, he bent down and gently kissed her, “Are you still uncomfortable?”
His voice was as soft as the spring breeze in March.
Nanxi blinked; inside her dark eyes was a sparkling glow.
Her brain was still misty, so she subconsciously nodded, “A little…”
The man’s brows furrowed, the hand holding hers tightened a bit, he said with a reprimanding tone, “It’s good to feel a bit uncomfortable, to learn a lesson…”
Nanxi was stunned, her body jerked when she heard this.
This feeling was too real, not like a dream at all!
She beca flustered for a mont, and quickly withdrew the hand held by the man.
Her eyes flickered, “I…
I’m fine…”
“Nanxi, don’t panic!”
Lu Yinchu’s voice was as calm as ever, gently soothing her heart, stirring an inexplicable roughness.
She instinctively wanted to turn her head away!
“Nanxi, I rember telling you that even though we’re pretending to be a couple, you can still depend on !
Just like you would rely on your real boyfriend…”
“…” Nanxi bit her lip, not knowing what to say for a mont.
When she touched his face just now, she thought she was dreaming.
She was confused about why she could always see him in her dreams, and why she would say sothing so ambiguous out loud.
Did he misunderstand sothing?
“I’m sorry…I just…I mistook you for soone else!”
Her explanation sounded ridiculous, yet it was possibly the best alibi she could co up with in this awkward situation!
Because I mistook you for soone else, that’s why I touched your face and said those words…
That was it…
because I got you mixed up with soone else!
“I know…”
Lu Yinchu’s lips curled up, “Rest assured, I didn’t misunderstand anything…”
Nanxi looked at him incredulously, did he really not misunderstand?
But why did she feel like he had just kissed her…
“Are you thirsty?”
As Nanxi stared in confusion, Lu Yinchu’s voice sounded again!
His voice was still magnetic and warm, hardly revealing any emotions!
Nanxi pursed her lips, then, rembering sothing, she asked, “How did I end up here?”
“You suffered from heatstroke and were sent to the dical office.
I happened to be at H University, saw you, and so I brought you to the hospital!”
“Oh!” Nanxi pursed her lips again, “Thank you, Mr.
Lu!”
“You’re welco.” His lips curled again, repeating his earlier question, “Are you thirsty?”
Nanxi’s mouth was dry, tasteless.
She was naturally thirsty and didn’t want to pretend otherwise, so she nodded.
Lu Yinchu got up to get so water, which made Nanxi feel embarrassed.
She wondered why he didn’t just ask a nurse instead of serving her himself.
She got flustered!
“Can you sit up?”
As Nanxi was grappling with her feelings, Lu Yinchu was already walking over with a cup of water.
He softly asked her when he stood by her bedside.
Nanxi nodded, using her weak arms to prop herself up, but she didn’t have any strength in her arms!
Together with her head still feeling hazy and uncomfortable, she…
failed!
“Don’t move, let help you!”
He put the cup of water on the table by the bed, two strong arms reaching towards her.
Before Nanxi could refuse, she was already in his arms!
Her arms were helped up, and she weakly let him move her.
Then he sat next to her, allowing her to lean against him…
The fresh mint scent mixed with a faint tobacco sll entered Nanxi’s nostrils, she felt uncomfortable and wanted to say sothing, but couldn’t, due to his gentle voice.
“You’re too weak, bear with it for a while, you’ll be fine once you’ve had so water…”
Having said that, he picked up the cup of tea and brought it to her lips, leaving no room for refusal!
Nanxi suppressed her discomfort, reached out for the cup, and he didn’t stop her, but instead enfolded her hand that was holding the cup.
She froze for a second, hearing him say, “Young lady, stop overthinking and drink the water!”
Nanxi was stunned for a mont.
For so reason, being called a “young lady” seed to lessen her emotional burden significantly!
That’s right, he’s ten years older than her.
In his eyes, she’s probably still a child, a young lady!
In that case, he couldn’t possibly have other ulterior thoughts about her!
She was overthinking!
After finishing the water in the cup, he asked her, “Do you want more?”
Nanxi shook her head.
The water was sweet, did he put honey in it?
How co she didn’t notice when he did it?
