Ji Yi instinctively shrank back, so He Jichen must've sensed she was avoiding him in his dreams. He suddenly tightened his grip on her wrist as his quiet mumbling grew louder: ”Don't avoid me, don't... I promise I won't bug you. As long as I can see you, that's alright, I promise, promise...”
After he said this, Ji Yi noted his pleading tone as He Jichen talked in his sleep along with the heart-wrenching sadness in his fine brows.
Ji Yi's heart suddenly went soft as she lost all strength in the arm she tried to pull away.
He Jichen probably sensed she had stopped resisting him, so he gradually calmed down and relaxed his grip on her hand. Eventually, he gave off a protective feeling as he gently held Ji Yi.
Her fingers in his palms couldn't help but tremble gently.
She wanted to pull away, yet she didn't. Ji Yi stared at him holding her hand for a moment, but her fingers subconsciously ended up softly holding his hand in return.
Ji Yi didn't pull her hand away from his until He Jichen was about to finish his IV drip.
She called the nurse, who took out the needle from He Jichen's hand, then pressed a cotton pad down on his skin for a moment. After she waited for the bleeding to stop, she carefully pulled the covers over him. Ji Yi quietly tiptoed over to the empty bed nearby and laid down.
The patient room was so quiet that Ji Yi could hear the slight but rhythmic breathing of He Jichen.
She was so sleepy that she was starting to doze off, but now she couldn't sleep even with her eyes shut. Her mind was filled with the image of He Jichen holding her hand.
