Qi Yan didn't pull her hand back and let him get ahead of her, but her eyes were cold and her tone wasn't very nice either.

"Lie still."

Shen Rao lay down obediently, clasping her hands tightly. His slightly drooping black hair cast a small shadow under his eyes, blocking the light in his eyes.

He covered his face with the quilt, which covered most of his face, leaving only his obsidian eyes exposed. He gently shook her hand and spoke in a muffled voice.

"Then are you still angry?"

"Shut up and go to sleep."

Qi Yan said coldly.

"..."

Shen Rao didn't dare to say a word. He glanced at her cold and clear eyes and shrank back into the quilt guiltily.

I didn't dare cry out in pain or feel wronged.

With his eyes half closed, his dark pupils glanced at their clasped hands. His slender fingers were wrapped in the big hands with distinct joints, and the warmth of their palms was transmitted and blended with each other.

Although her voice was cold, her hands were warm.

a long time.

Shen Rao placed a kiss on her knuckles, looked at her with sparkling eyes, and slightly opened his thin lips.

"Good night then."

……

Only after the person on the hospital bed's breathing became steady did Qi Yan raise his head from the phone screen and glance at the two people's clasped hands.

Even when the man fell asleep, he still clenched his hands tightly. If he moved at all, he would frown, and he would move and scratch around unconsciously, sleeping very restlessly.

I feel extremely insecure.

Qi Yan was silent for a moment and stopped pulling his hand back.

He shifted his gaze back to the phone, and the light from the screen reflected into his clear eyes, covering up the emotions inside.

Later in the night.

Shen Rao was awakened, gasping for breath, a layer of cold sweat rising on his back. He instinctively searched around in a daze, but found nothing.

When he realized that his hands were empty, the color drained away from his face and he quickly looked around.

No no……

He got out of bed and stumbled to the door, his hand just touching the handle.

'Squeak—'

The ward door was pushed open from the outside.

Qi Yan's fair and tender face was a little red from the cold, and her body was still tinged with the biting cold wind. At this moment, she was keeping the door open and looking at him strangely.

"Why are you up? Go back and lie down."

Shen Rao was breathing heavily, his clothes were disheveled, and his pupils were trembling in panic. After seeing her, he still couldn't calm down.

He stood at the door blocking the way without saying a word, and the stalemate lasted for more than ten seconds.

Qi Yan was a little annoyed. He looked up at him and said something that sounded like a mockery or a joke.

"Why are you standing there? Do you want me to carry you back?"

Shen Rao stopped trembling, and his eyes returned to silence. He stared at her with his arms outstretched and his expression full of seriousness.

"hug."

"..."

Qi Yan didn't move, but tightened his hand that was holding the door.

His expression was normal, indifferent and calm.

Shen Rao still maintained this posture, not moving at all.

But if you look closely, you can see that his arms are trembling slightly and his lips are pursed tightly.

Just when the stalemate was about to make the corners of his eyes red, Qi Yan stepped forward, avoided his wounds, and picked him up sideways.

Shen Rao hugged her neck, blinked his sore eyes, and got close enough to smell a little bit of tobacco on her.

It doesn't smell bad, but rather familiar.

It was like the smell she often had three years ago.

Qi Yan put the person on the bed and was about to get up when she was pulled by the corner of her clothes, and her whole body froze. She looked in the direction of the force.

Shen Rao raised his eyes, his deep black pupils were soft, yet stubborn.

The deep voice was a little hoarse.

"Next time you leave, can you tell me in advance? I, I thought you hated me and didn't want me anymore..."

Gradually choking.

He knew that he had gone too far this time, so he felt particularly insecure, fearing that Qi Yan would dislike him because of it.

However, if there was a better way, he didn't want to bother with the wound and use such despicable means to kidnap her.

But he couldn't help it.

Qi Yan is a person who seems to be casual and tolerant.

But if you force her, it will only backfire, and if you really plot against her, she will crush you to death immediately.

Rich and powerful, strong, calm and strong, with no weaknesses.

Shen Rao, who was good at taking advantage of people's weaknesses, had no way to deal with her.

Of course, he didn't want to use any dirty tricks on Qi Yan.

He knew that he could rely on the friendship they had three years ago and be shameless and do some tricks to win Qi Yan's heart.

If they overdo it, they may really have no chance.

So Shen Rao was afraid that if he really touched Qi Yan's bottom line today, she would completely abandon him.

Qi Yan lowered her eyes silently and looked directly into his eyes which were filled with panic.

It took a long time, so long that Shen Rao thought she would not answer, and so long that the blood stopped flowing in his knuckles that were clutching the corner of her clothes.

She patted his head, rubbed it lightly, pointed to the bedside, and sighed.

"I left you a note."

"..."

Only then did Shen Rao notice that there was a piece of paper on the bedside table, with a sentence written on it in sharp pen.

'I'll be back soon'

He looked at the note, then at Qi Yan who looked helpless, loosened his grip on the corner of her clothes, and his eyelashes trembled.

"I'm sorry, I didn't see it. You could actually wake me up next time."

Qi Yan smoothed the wrinkles on his coat, did not agree to wake him up, and put his hands in his pockets leisurely.

"Can you sleep peacefully now?"

Shen Rao choked, nodded, pulled the quilt and watched Qi Yan taking off her coat, his Adam's apple rolling up and down.

She threw her coat aside, revealing a velvet suspender underneath. Her slender hands untied her hairband, and her hair fell, setting off her fair skin like freshly fallen snow.

Holding her hair together and looking sideways at Shen Rao, she spoke in a lazy voice.

"I'm going to take a bath, you go to bed first."

Before Shen Rao could say anything, the door of the suite was closed.

He closed his thin lips, pulled up the quilt, then pushed it down hard, turned his face away stiffly, and a blush climbed up from the bottom of his neck to his entire face.

With one hand he pressed his heart that was about to jump out of his chest, and with the other hand he covered his blushing face.

It was clearly just a very ordinary action, why did Qi Yan do it so lustfully...

He buried his head in the quilt, biting his lower lip. Besides the thunderous heartbeat in his ears, there was also a sentence repeating in his mind.

"What should I do? I like it so much. What should I do? I like it so much. What should I do? I like it so much..."

Qi Yan came out of the suite in pajamas. Shen Rao hadn't fallen asleep yet, but the redness on his face and the heat in his body had disappeared.

She glanced at Shen Rao, whose eyes were sharp, then pulled the blanket over herself, saying nothing and closing her eyes.

Simply ignore his burning gaze and go to sleep.

Shen Rao did not disturb her. After all, it was already this late. He lay down and stared at the ceiling until dawn, when he felt a little sleepy.

Before he fell asleep, he seemed to see someone pulling the quilt for him.

……

A month later.

Shen Rao's wound healed slowly and it was finally time for him to be discharged from the hospital.

Even Bai Ya praised him for a rare few words. After checking the healing condition and writing the medical records, she sighed.

"You're a pretty strong young man, and you heal quickly. You don't have to worry about getting hurt a few more times next time. Being young is good. Okay, you can pack up and be discharged from the hospital today."
