Chapter 1231 - No Need to Worry (1/2)

Cen Xi planned to go ask the nurse on duty.

When she walked past the emergency exit, she noticed that the door wasn’t shut tightly and was slightly opened.

Cen Xi stopped, unconsciously glancing inside.

However, at this sight, her breathing tightened and her body stiffened.

It wasn’t someone else standing by the stairs, it was that man who wasn’t resting properly on his bed.

His back was facing Cen Xi, so Cen Xi couldn’t see his eyes now. A woman wearing a hat, sungla.s.ses and face mask was standing in front of him. The woman was wearing a long, black-lace dress. Although she couldn’t see her face, she could still tell that the woman had dressed carefully and detailedly.

She didn’t know what they were saying, but the woman suddenly jumped into the man’s arms and started to sob softly.

“… After I found out that you got shot and almost injured your heart, I was so scared I almost lost my soul. It took a lot for me to finally find out that you were staying in this hospital. Leader Bai said that you’re fine now, but I couldn’t relax…”

Qiao Yanze patted her shoulders, comforting her softly, saying that he was alright already and that she didn’t need to worry.

She looked down and took off her sungla.s.ses to wipe her tears. “Can I stay to take care of you tonight? I’ll leave first thing in the morning.”

“No.” He pushed her away. Cen Xi could tell that he didn’t use a lot of strength, while his voice was considered gentle as he said, “Go now. If someone finds out, we’ll both be in trouble.”

“Alright. I’ll wait for you to come back after achieving your goals.”

The woman couldn’t help but hug him once more, before she left unwillingly.

Only when the woman disappeared from the stairs, Qiao Yanze finally glanced towards the door. He spoke coldly, “Come out.”

Cen Xi, who was leaning against the wall, s.h.i.+vered as a chill ran up her spine.

Oh my, how did he discover her?

She knew that eavesdropping on others’ conversation wasn’t a good thing to do. However, her feet seemed to have been filled with lead, and she couldn’t move even if she wanted to.

Her instincts told her that it would be very dangerous if she continued to stay here, so Cen Xi ran away hurriedly.

Even after she ran out of the hospital, her heart was thumping crazily. After her heart beat calmed down, Cen Xi started to walk towards the dormitory.

When she was arriving at the dormitory, she saw a figure walk out from the dark. Looking carefully, it was actually Qiao Sen.

He walked towards her, his eyes cold as his lips pursed tightly, exuding danger.

“Come with me.” He stood in front of her, saying.

Cen Xi felt her scalp turn slightly numb. Under his eyes, she replied with a gulp, “Okay.”

He took a few steps forward.

When Cen Xi didn’t follow, he turned back to look at her and she immediately ran back to the dormitory. “Mr Qiao, it’s too late now. I want to go and sleep.”

She opened the dormitory door, before closing it with a fight or flight instinct. Her slender body leaned against the door, patting her chest.

She listened carefully for any sounds outside.

After a while, seeing that no one was knocking on the door, she finally sighed in relief.

…

While lying on the bed, Cen Xi didn’t feel sleepy at all.

As she turned back and forth, she couldn’t help but think about who that woman was. The woman’s voice sounded soft and elegant, sounding extremely pleasant to her ears. Besides, when she jumped into his arms, he didn’t push her away and comforted her gently instead.

Cen Xi knew that this was very normal.

He wasn’t anyone to her. It was just that she had some feelings for him one-sidedly. It’s very normal for him to have a woman he cared for with him.

Maybe, he was only acting with the two mix blooded beauties the organization boss had given him. However, she felt that the woman tonight was different.

Cen Xi buried her face in the blankets, humming sadly. She had lived twenty years, but it was her first time losing sleep over such things.
