Chapter 301: The Virgin He Sanlang (1) (1/2)

Chu Lian was shocked by the sudden shout. She yanked back her hand and stared at the man with wide eyes, but his own eyes still stayed shut.

When she realised that he had only been sleep talking, she patted her chest in relief and calmed down.

That had really scared her.

The beardy’s mouth moved again as he mumbled something. However, he spoke too softly and quickly; Chu Lian couldn’t catch what he was saying at all.

Chu Lian crept over again, too curious to deny herself. She leaned her ear closer to see if she could catch anything. She wanted to know what he was saying.

Even though she was as close to him as she could get, Chu Lian could only make out a few words.

After a moment, Chu Lian straightened up. Her brows furrowed as she thought about his odd ramblings.

“Hah! You wicked woman! Are you regretting your betrayal now? He turned out to be a bad guy in the end! He even betrayed you! Are you sad? Are you hurt? Let me tell you, the pain I feel is a hundred times more than yours!”

Chu Lian: ……

The corner of her mouth twitched as she looked at the man before her. Had this guy suffered some sort of heartbreak previously?

Just as Chu Lian was thinking about listening to more of his juicy ramblings, the man quieted down and stopped talking.

Shortly after, his temperature began to rise again. Chu Lian had no choice but to continue wiping him down with a cloth to help him lower his temperature.

Finally, Chu Lian leaned against the cave wall and let the beardy use her lap as a pillow. This way, if his condition changed, she could wake up from her sleep and check if he was still burning up.

Near the end of the night, Chu Lian was just too tired. She fell asleep leaning against the wall.

In her dreams, she felt something tighten around her waist. However, she was just way too tired to react. She didn’t even have the energy to open her eyes to see what it was.

Trapped in his nightmares, He Sanlang’s brows were tightly knitted together. Right as he was being tortured both mentally and physically, in his most troubled time, it felt like his body had suddenly been immersed in some place warm and comfortable.

He caught a hint of a familiar, comforting scent and quickly calmed down. His entire head seemed to be ensconced in that sweet smell, helping to quiet his chaotic thoughts.

The high fever slowly subsided along with them.

At some point, He Sanlang’s arms had reached out to wrap around Chu Lian’s slender waist. That soft and cosy feeling comforted him in the midst of his deep slumber.

He Sanlang took in deep breaths, subconsciously wanting to keep this sweet smell and feeling to himself.
