"Why are you here?" He stared at her and asked again.
"You haven’t answered my question. What happened to you? What illness do you have?"
"I’m fine."
Nangong Ruyue couldn’t help but raise her voice: "If you don’t tell , you think I won’t be able to find out?!"
Xiao Zexin pursed his lips: "It’s really nothing. I just accidentally fell."
"Where did you fall?"
"There were glass shards on the ground at the ti. When I fell, the shards happened to lodge in my leg."
Nangong Ruyue was about to lift the blanket: "Let see."
"No need to look, I’m fine." Xiao Zexin held the blanket down.
"Let see—"
"I’m really fine."
Nangong Ruyue reached to pull his hand, but before she could touch it, he retracted it quickly as if electrocuted.
Nangong Ruyue’s eyes darkened.
But her face remained calm.
She lifted the blanket and saw that his right thigh was wrapped in a bandage.
The wound seed deep, as traces of blood seeped through the gauze.
Nangong Ruyue wanted to reach out and touch his wound but restrained herself.
She gently adjusted the thin blanket for him.
"Was it really an accident?" she tilted her head and asked him.
Xiao Zexin t her gaze: "Really."
"Why didn’t you tell ?"
"No need to." No need to worry her.
Nangong Ruyue sneered: "Are you rejecting to this extent already?"
Xiao Zexin lowered his eyes: "You should go back, don’t co anymore."
Nangong Ruyue sat directly on the edge of the bed, Xiao Zexin’s body stiffened almost imperceptibly.
"I’ve always wanted to ask you, why are you avoiding ?"
"My illness hasn’t healed, I could lose my mind at any mont," Xiao Zexin said in a low voice.
"But you’re clear-headed now, and the doctor said your condition is improving, you won’t lose your mind again."
Xiao Zexin’s hand under the blanket clenched tightly: "Not necessarily, I almost hard Yufei back then."
"At that ti, you weren’t clear-headed."
"I’m not much clearer now! Who knows when I might hurt you? Please, just leave!"
Nangong Ruyue’s eyes trembled: "Just for a small possibility, you want to keep rejecting ? What if that possibility never happens?"
Xiao Zexin stared straight at her.
"How do you know it won’t happen? What if it does?"
Nangong Ruyue smiled slightly: "So what if it happens? Even if it does, I believe you won’t hurt ."
No, he would...
In his dreams, he hurt her, he would in reality too.
Because at that ti, he couldn’t control himself.
He didn’t even know what he was doing.
"No matter what, until my illness is cured, I can’t let you get close to !" Xiao Zexin’s attitude was firm.
Nangong Ruyue didn’t understand.
Was he rejecting her just because he was worried he might lose control?
"Are you hiding sothing from ? Is your condition more serious than you’re letting on?" she asked sharply.
Xiao Zexin’s heart montarily panicked.
He couldn’t let her know his thoughts—
They were dark and shaful.
If she found out, she would surely misunderstand him.
Misunderstand that he truly couldn’t accept Nangong Xu’s child.
Although he didn’t want her to have soone else’s child, the child already existed, and she wanted to keep it, so he had no intention of killing it.
Yet the dark side of him kept flashing those images.
Making him want to kill that child.
How could he explain this?
