Nestled in his embrace, she remained silent for quite a while, while the man quietly held her, also ceasing to speak.
Dong Huiying slowly extended her hand, and he thought she wanted to push him away, causing his body to tense up, but his grip beca even tighter.
He held her tightly, as if afraid she might slip away from his arms.
Dong Huiying was almost breathless from the embrace, "You’re squeezing so hard, my bones are about to break!!"
He froze for a mont, and she slightly turned, placing a hand on his forehead. Then, she nodded emphatically, "I an, why are you suddenly talking nonsense? You haven’t slept, and you’ve gotten a high fever without realizing it? Why didn’t you call out for help? I’m truly... in my past life, I must have done sothing bad!!"
Afterwards, she pressed him back onto the bed, half angry, half tender, "Stop overthinking. being here is the best proof you need."
He lay on the bed, watching her, but reached out to hold her wrist gently. "Don’t leave."
She paused, "I wasn’t planning to leave."
"You said that before, but you left."
He seed particularly aggrieved, even his lips started to turn down slightly.
He used to always be mature and responsible. But now, his body feverish, perhaps muddled by the heat, he showed so child-like vulnerability.
She sat by the bed, gently stroking his face, "I just went to see Lan Gu, not Shu Yu."
"Lan Gu?" He looked at her in confusion.
Dong Huiying sighed again, "You’re always like this, carrying everything yourself, hiding things when trouble arises. I couldn’t pry open your mouth, so I had to pry open soone else’s. Otherwise, if I ask you why you were attacked last night, would you tell ? No, you wouldn’t. I haven’t asked you before, but earlier, you just brushed off lightly."
He opened his mouth slightly, but for a mont, was speechless.
Her expression was a little complex, "Did I ever tell you? Whether it’s the old you, or the current you, even though you think they’re two different personalities, I used to think like that too. But look, there are similarities between you. Zhi Chen, stop bearing everything alone. I’ve said this over and over again, my lips are almost worn out, but you always agree obediently, yet revert to old habits when sothing happens. Clearly, I can be reliable too, I can share the burden with you, can’t I?"
He gazed at her intently, gripping her hand, holding it tighter. "But you..."
"Hmm?"
"Kiss ."
"Ah?"
He was wistful, "You won’t let touch you, but you let Shu Yu touch you." If it weren’t for that, he wouldn’t be so troubled.
Dong Huiying: "..." Her face suddenly turned bright red.
Sure enough, when a man acts coy, he leaves no space for a woman?
Why are you so adorable!!
He closed his eyes, slightly lifted his chin, as if waiting for her to kiss him. But her expression had twisted entirely, looking like she was about to laugh, yet also appearing annoyed.
Really, there’s no way to deal with him.
"Just one kiss, okay?"
"Mm!"
His eyelashes quivered.
She slowly leaned forward and planted a kiss on his forehead.
He blinked slightly, then opened his eyes, looking at her wistfully, as if the kiss was too light, in the wrong spot, not eting his expectations.
"You should do it again?"
"Uh?"
"Kiss again!!"
