Sotis, his obsession with Li Caiyi frightened him. Imagining that girl went away with soone else to the place he didn't know about was enough to make him tremble like a leaf.
ng Renshu didn't care if people called him crazy, but he couldn't deny his needs for Li Caiyi only grew bigger as days passed by. Now, even dicine sotis couldn't get rid of his headache completely.
He felt at ease only when she was around him. Just having her by his side made him feel like he was finally returning ho.
"Brother Renshu." Li Caiyi called out his na, but he didn't dare to look her in the eyes.
ng Renshu instinctively shut his eyes, calmly waiting for the harsh rejection from her again.
However, there was no harsh berating even after waiting for a few seconds. Instead, Li Caiyi took a step closer to him and scrutinized his face closely. Her eyebrows furrowed, and her lips puckered as he gazed at him inquisitively.
"Are you sick? Your face color didn't look good at all." Li Caiyi asked him, catching him off guard.
"Huh?"
"I knew sothing was off from you the mont I saw you," Li Caiyi raised her hand and placed it on his forehead.
Because of the difference in their height, she had to tip-toe a little. The sight of her seriously thinking in front of him was very adorable; it made his breath hitched.
After a few seconds, which he wished went on forever, Li Caiyi retracted her hand with a wry expression mixed with worry on her face.
"Your body is slightly feverish. What are you doing following to this place instead of going ho and taking a rest?"
"It is? I didn't notice at all." ng Renshu put his palm to his forehead, but he only felt the coldness.
"Your breath is heavy, and your body is wobbling like that. How is it supposed to be fine?"
"I'm worried about you because I know who that woman is. I just want to make sure you are safe."
Li Caiyi sighed helplessly. "Next ti, worry about yourself more than . I can take care of my own affair."
"My body moved on its own. I can't help it. And I'm not sick, just feeling a bit under the weather today."
Li Caiyi grimaced as though she had expected him to say that. "Don't be stubborn and just return ho now. If you collapsed after stalking , wouldn't your family hold responsible for it?"
ng Renshu chuckled. "Haha, don't worry, because I will allow no one to scold you."
Li Caiyi bit her lips with a hesitant look on her face. ng Renshu knew what she was thinking, but he made no attempt to call it out and only waited for what she had to say next.
"That… why don't you call Mr. Mu to pick you up here?"
ng Renshu was a little disappointed because Li Caiyi suggested he call his driver instead of offering to take him there. However, based on their relationships in the past few months, I guessed this was already the best outco he could get.
'It will be a lie if I say I didn't expect more, though,' ng Renshu lanted inwardly.
But thankfully, his condition distracted her from what he had said before. Although it was true, he regretted saying his innermost thoughts out loud. ng Renshu was the one who said that he was okay with him rejecting her, so it made little sense for him to act like that.
Perhaps she was right; he needed to take a rest more.
"You are right. I will call him first." ng Renshu replied before taking out his phone and calling his driver. After he finished reporting his location, he pocketed his phone again.
"Didn't you say you were in a hurry? Go on ahead. I just want to make sure you are okay."
Li Caiyi studied his face for a while before finally nodding her head. "You should take it easy. Sit down on the park's bench so it will not tire you out."
"En. Have a safe trip. See you tomorrow."
Li Caiyi cast the last look on ng Renshu before walking away. Only when her small figure disappeared beyond the intersection did he lean his back against the wall of the park entrance.
"Did it get worse?" ng Renshu muttered.
He was indeed feeling a bit under the weather today, and running to chase after Li Caiyi under the blazing sun pushed him beyond his limit.
First, he moved to the spot covered in the shade. Then, he took off his blazer because he felt extrely stuffy and hot. ng Renshu hoped Mr. Mu would arrive soon.
His throat was parched, but he didn't have any water to drink. He subconsciously imagined the sight of Li Caiyi spending ti with Dai Zhiqiang after this made his head spin.
"I should stop thinking about it. There is still plenty of ti to win her over."
The street was empty around this ti. The sun was probably still high, and people were too lazy to wander around under this heat.
The sound of cicadas was very loud, a sign that sumr was coming.
Among the noises of cicadas and the wind blowing, he faintly heard the sound of footsteps. The owner of that leg must have been in a hurry because the speed kept increasing.
It seed like they were getting closer to where he stood?
Nevertheless, ng Renshu was too weak to care about it. He kept his eyes shut, inwardly praying that his driver would pick him up soon.
"I knew it!"
A familiar voice made him open his eyes imdiately. He raised his head and found Li Caiyi, who sweated all over her face, looking down at him with creased brows. Her face expressed disapproval, reprimand, and helplessness simultaneously.
"I have a feeling you won't listen to my advice. Stop tornting your body like this."
Li Caiyi scolded him, but it strangely sounded pleasant to his ears. His head, which was throbbing up to a mont ago, suddenly cleared up. He could see his reflection in her worried eyes, like looking at himself through the surface of a spring lake.
'She… return for ?'
"You really are hopeless!" Li Caiyi nagged while opening the mineral water cap she bought from the nearest store.
Li Caiyi seed annoyed, but she was so beautiful in his eyes it suffocated him. Even after everything she said, she still couldn't leave him behind.
ng Renshu knew she was just that kind, and he shouldn't overthink it.
However, a man can dream, and his biggest dream right then was to hold her tightly. He swore he would never let her go again when he got her in his arms.
