Chapter 1241 - D-Dont Touch Me… (2/2)

Making her kneel and kowtow three times, throwing the necklace she regarded as her treasure into the sea, all made her feel a twisting, gnawing pain.

It was all right. Although her heart was dripping with blood, she would pay for what her sister had owed him.

Qiao Yanze looked at her haggard yet arrogant eyes. He pursed his lips, feeling inexplicably unhappy. “Scram, disappear from my sight right now! And don’t let me see you again!”

At his words, Cen Xi stood up from the ground blankly. Dragging her legs that were like lead, she walked towards the door.

But she had just taken a few steps when everything went black and she fell to the ground.

…

Hearing a loud thump, Qiao Yanze, who was about to enter the bathroom, looked at the slumped figure on the ground and frowned.

He strode towards her in a few strides. Looking at her injured forehead and flushed cheeks, he reached out his hand and touched her skin. It was burning hot.

Qiao Yanze pursed his lips and carried her to the bed with a dark expression.

Within seconds, he made a call and asked Tang Xi to call a female staff over.

After a few minutes, the doorbell rang. Qiao Yanze went to the door and opened it.

It was not a waitress who came over, but a tall and handsome man. Qiao Yanze had seen him once before, at Bai Wei’s house.

It was Bai Wei’s son, Bai Lin.

Bai Lin was on vacation recently and was having a party with some friends on the cruise.

After he learned that someone had jumped into the sea, he rushed to the deck immediately. He learned that the person was saved and overheard someone mentioning the name Qiao Yanze, and heard the description of the girl who jumped into the sea. Thinking it sounded like Cen Xi, he hurried over.

As Bai Lin looked at Qiao Yanze, he saw that his wet clothes were clinging tightly to his body. The outline of his taut chest could be seen faintly and his pants were also wet, the fabric clinging to his muscles, making his legs seem even longer.

Bai Lin was a protective person. He regarded Cen Xi as his family and did not like to see her being aggrieved.

The girl who had jumped into the sea better not be Cen Xi, or else…

“Young Master Qiao, is the girl you brought into the room Cen Xi?”

Qiao Yanze was a little surprised when he saw that the first thing Bai Lin said was to mention the name of the girl in the room.

He had underestimated her, as she was able to let Bai Wei send her to the hospital to take care of him and now could let the young master of the Bai family come to find her personally.

Bai Lin was a decent person. He was usually serious and cold and surrounded by men. He was a workaholic and a cold-blooded man. It was said that he would be a bachelor for life.

It seemed like the rumors were false.

Bai Lin came in a hurry and there was evident worry in his eyes, which did not look like he did not like the opposite s.e.x.

Qiao Yanze lips were pursed tightly, thoughts running in his head. What was the relations.h.i.+p between Cen Xi and Bai Lin?

Just then, the female staff who was going to change Cen Xi’s clothes, arrived.

The female staff saw that there were two tall figures standing by the door, one was handsome and cold, the other handsome and serious, she asked cautiously, “Young Master Qiao, do I go in now?”

Qiao Yanze moved aside to let the staff go in.

The female staff changed Cen Xi’s clothes and came back over. “Young Master Qiao, she’s having a fever and the wound on her forehead is still bleeding. I think she needs a doctor…”

Before the female staff could finish her words, she saw the handsome and serious man rush in.

Bai Lin’s expression changed when he saw Cen Xi who was lying on the bed. The hands that hung by his sides clenched into fist tightly, the veins on the back of his hand throbbing.

“Water… Thirsty…”

Cen Xi’s weak voice sounded just as Bai Lin was about to lose control of his emotions. Hearing what she said, he immediately poured a gla.s.s of water and sat by the bed, moving closer to Cen Xi.

Just when he was about to hold her up to feed her the water, she shrank towards the bed. “D-Don’t touch me…”
