Chapter 968: I Still Had Mercy
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
That afternoon, Su Ji was woken up by the sun.
Where the sunlight shone, the cream-white blanket was so bright that it reflected light.
She suddenly sat up on the bed. Looking at the light outside the window, she knew that Pei Huai had already left.
The next moment, she turned sideways to touch her phone. Her leg that was in a cast was fine, but other parts of her body felt like they had been run over repeatedly by a car. The pain hit her.
The dots in her mind connected with a snap. All the memories from last night to midnight surged into her mind, including the fragmented images of her sitting in front of the dressing table around five o’clock this morning.
Pei Huai did not wake her up.
Looking at the time on his phone, Su Ji lay back on the bed as if she had fallen apart.
Pei Huai was already on the plane and had flown out of the country. He was very far away from her.
She turned sideways and buried her face into the pillow that Pei Huai had laid on.
Pei Huai’s unique smell could even instantly speed up her heartbeat. “Ms. Su Ji, should I prepare breakfast now?”
Aunt Gong’s familiar and gentle voice came from outside the door. Su Ji called out, “sure! Thank you, Aunt Gong!”
Her throat was as hoarse as sawn wood, and she was shocked by herself.
Aunt Gong’s footsteps left.
Su Ji, who was curled up under the blanket, sent Pei Huai a WeChat message, asking him why he didn’t wake her up and made her sleep until now.
There was a signal receiver on the private plane, so she received a reply very quickly.
Pei Huai, “I want you to sleep a little longer. You woke up too early.”
Su Ji typed on her phone.
[ “Early? It’s already 10 0’clock.” ]
[ “You slept at 5:20.” ] Then, there was another sound.
[ “It seems that I still have mercy.” ]
Su Ji felt that he was not speaking human language. She couldn’t think of a reply.
[ “Go sleep a little longer.” ]
[ “I’m going to have a meeting. I’ll message you when I land.
Su Ji pursed her lips.
She slept for a few hours, but Pei Huai probably did not sleep at all.
The people of the Great Shang once said that she sucked men’s energy.
It was not completely unreasonably.
[ “You should rest for a while after the meeting.” ] Pei Huai agreed, but Su Ji was not sure if he would do it.
Just like how he agreed to wake her up.
[ “I left you something. Take a look.” ] Su Ji’s eyes lit up.
She sat up again and turned around to look.
She rummaged under both pillows but couldn’t find anything. Then, she draped a blanket over her shoulders and went into the bathroom.
As she was searching, the blanket on her shoulder slid down. She glanced at the mirror from the corner of her eye and her expression froze.
She turned around and faced the big, bright mirror in the bathroom. She slowly opened the blanket with both hands.
She recalled the WeChat message and looked at the red and purple bites on her body.
Could this be what he left for her…
The corners of Su Ji’s mouth twitched slightly for a while before she wrapped herself up tightly with the blanket again.
However, she soon realized that she had misunderstood.
She saw it after coming out of the bathroom.
A wooden cane stood at the head of the bed.
