Chapter 665 - She Kissed Him! (1/2)
Jin Yan was reading a script in the living room of his villa when he received Xia Ning’s phone call. He felt a hand had gripped his heart when he heard her cry. “Ke, what’s wrong?”
“I don’t know. I just feel awful.”
“Where are you? I’ll go find you!” Jin Yan rose to his feet, spilling the script all over the floor.
Leaning back all the way, Xia Ning felt the cold sensation on her back. She took a deep breath. “No, you don’t have to. Hearing your voice makes me better already.”
“Just tell me what happened?”
Xia Ning looked up at the sky. “Nothing, really. Something that happened today reminded me of what happened before. That’s all.”
“Is it about Qiao Yu? Ke, leave that family. They’ll only upset you more. You’re forcing yourself.”
“Can we not talk about that?” Xia Ning closed her eyes.
“I just don’t want to see you upset, Ke. I don’t want you to feel wronged. Ever.”
Xia Ning smiled. “I know. I won’t.”
They chatted for a bit longer before the call ended.
Jin Yan looked around at the script on the floor and his eyes flickered. He then put down the cell phone, picked up the script, and went back to his reading.
After cooling her head on the balcony, Xia Ning cleaned the floor, then washed up again before going back to the bedroom.
It was still dark inside and she could hear the even breathing of the father and son, which relaxed her a little. She then went back to her side of the bed and lay down, trying to keep her distance from Enoch, for she didn’t want her cold skin to startle him.
Either the cathartic phone call had worked or she was exhausted. She fell asleep in no time.
Enoch woke Xia Ning up the following morning.
