Chapter 3: I Will Love You Right
Seeing nothing wrong, Mo Lixin breathed a sigh of relief. Thatās good. It was only a fruit that fell on the table. She went ahead and picked up the fallen fruit.
At the same time, she couldnāt help but walk to Ji Nanfengās bed while she held a complicated countenance.
His facial feature was otherworldly, over sixā foot tall and a lean body. She liked to design clothings and had gone to numerous fashion shows in the past. They were filled with many handsome men but none could match the man before her. His face was sculpted by the very heavens itself.
Mo Lixin, absorbed in her own thoughts soon fell asleep and she found herself sitting on the small bench resting beside the bed.
She canāt remember when was the last time she was ever this close to him⦠she could not remember⦠maybe it never happened.
Then, she fell into a state of a blissful dream. This feeling⦠this feeling was happiness⦠stolen happiness.
She hasnāt slept well for a while and she dreamt well, dreamt of something sweet.
A sweet aromatic scent lingered about and Ji Nanfengās eyes opened slowly.
Heād awoken from his slumber the moment Mo Lixin entered his room. He could have greeted her, but he did not have the courage to do so. So he pretended and could only let her look at him in this poor and painful state.
He looked at her longingly and watched her peaceful face doze off into serenity. Ji Nanfeng moved and pulled her to his bed and held her tight like sheād never escape from his embrace.
Only when it looked like sheād awaken did he loosen his grip.
She felt cold to the touch. Especially her hands and feet. It felt like a bucket of ice had been thrown to her. Ji Nanfeng was anxious. He thought of how he should pass on his body heat all to his wife.
āLixin, why are you so sillyā¦? I wonāt⦠I will never hurt you again⦠Iām so sorry⦠I love youā¦ā In the silent night, his hoarse and tired voice escaped from his lips followed by a long silence.
Sighing deeply, Ji Nanfeng inhaled her fragrant scent and pulled Mo Lixin close to his arms as he dozed to sleep.
After a good nightās sleep, Mo Lixin roused from slumber. Her eyes fluttered open and the first she saw was Ji Nanfengās beautiful eyebrows. But before she had the chance to gaze at his beauty, she heard a voice outside.
Unwillingly, she quickly got out of bed and tidied her appearance all too hurriedly.
How did she end up in his bed?
Itās fortunate no one knew of it.
Duan Anran opened the door and saw Mo Lixinās figure.
Her brows tightened as she suddenly lashed out. āWhy are you here?! Nanfeng was badly hurt because of you. What else do you want?! Hey, Mo Lixin, Iām looking at you! You have a thick face that I want to tear apart! You know, itās really infuriating to look at!ā
Duan Anran took a short glance at Ji Nanfeng.
Good. He isnāt awake yet. Thatās good. Itād be even better if he wakes up first without seeing this woman.
Mo Lixin did not know what to say. She looked to Ji Nanfeng and a solemn expression could be seen. āIāll go out right away.ā
She did not wish for Ji Nanfeng to wake up so suddenly. If he saw her here, heād only be unhappy.
But little did she know that Ji Nanfeng had already awoken.
A loud cough filled the hospice room.
Mo Lixin reacted faster than her brains could think. She immediately went to his bed and squatted down. āAre you alright? Do you feel uncomfortable? Unwell? I⦠Iāll go and call a doctor for you.ā
āNanfeng, itās good youāre awake. Do you know how much I worried for you day and night?ā Duan Anran looked as if she cried rain. It looked truly believable.
