Chapter 21 — Can't Recognize Me After A Nap?

The drug's effects finally wore off after two hours, but Shangguan Ning had fallen into a deep sleep due to over-exhaustion

Jing Yichen sat by her side as he quietly watched the girl who had suddenly barged into his life

Her once swollen face had already returned to nor the bestonly purple-red bruises However, these bruises becas that she had experienced; the feeling only grew stronger the longer he stared at them — because they were such a stark contrast to her snohite face that was as delicate as suet jade

She was undoubtedly pretty, but he had seen even ave him was vastly different compared to the rest He was co as he ith her, even if she doesn't talk, his mood would improve as well

It was like this since the first tin e to block it out with cold indifference

He had always thought that he was someone who didn't need emotions since excessive emotions would only become a hindrance — a weakness in his life But the moment he learned that she was injured, his rationality flew out of the

They had only known each other for a couple of days, and their s were brief as well, so why did he care this much about her?

Jing Yichen couldn't find the reason — nor did he need one As long as he knohat he wants, nothing else matters

When Shangguan Ning woke up the nextperiod of time

After a good while, she reuely recalled that Zhao Anan saved her, but she doesn’t have an inkling of what happened afterward

Everything hurt from head to toe, which she reckons that it should be from Guo Shuai's blows yesterday

She pried the blanket open and was frightened by as clearly male pajamas worn on her person

No way, right?! Could it be that at the end, she lost her virginity?

Then Shangguan Ning quickly rejected this guess Although she felt powerless and everything hurt at the moment, she didn't feel any different from her lower body

She released the breath that she was holding Only then did she have the s

The rooh it was concise, it portrayed the splendor that of a palace with its grandeur and extravagance exuding from every corner of it

Where was she? Zhao Anan's house? But if this was her house, it was iive her a set of male pajamas to wear

Shangguan Ning suddenly re her daze yesterday, she heard Zhao Anan crying loudly ”Big brother”

Don't tell her that…… that she's at Jing Yichen's place?! Then wouldn't these pajamas be…… Dear God, how can this be?!

Shangguan Ning helplessly shut her eyes, trying her best to console herself inwardly

There was a sudden sound of light footsteps breaking the silence of the roo her to immediately open her eyes

A faure entered and didn't refrain – whatsoever – fro, slender, yet good-looking hand to press against her forehead

A shortYichen retrieved his hand and spoke in a low pitched voice ”Not a bad recovery, no fever either Do you want to eat so?”

Shangguan Ning stared blankly What was going on?

Why was Jing Yichen acting on very faether for many years

Although there was still the lack of expressions on his face, his tone arentle with the absence of the coldness from before

This left Shangguan Ning unable to react

Seeing her doubts, Jing Yichen gave her a faint snizein his tone when he spoke

His s an orderly set of pearly white teeth There was a type of sunshi+ne in the sht into a person's heart

It was the first ti saw his smile, and it caused her heart to beat without obstruction
