Chapter 147 - Good Deed Credit (2/2)

Lei Xing groaned and he immediately stopped talking as both he and the Emperor glanced at the bed to find Lei Xing knitting her brows. She was about to wake up so Doctor Lou glanced at the Emperor and smiled, ”Have fun.” Then he left the room and quietly closed the door with a smile as he watched as the Emperor go to sit down on the bed next to Lei Xing.

Doctor Lou then happily turned to leave only to jump when he saw Commander An standing there, he blinked and then squinted at him, ”They need privacy, follow me.”

Commander An frowned at the door and went to protest, ”But-”

”Seeing how serious you look...” Doctor Lou cut him off as he looked him over and then shook his head, ”I would have never thought you were a pervert...”

Commander An blinked and then scowled feeling insulted but before he could open his mouth, Doctor Lou continued, ”I said the young couple needs privacy and yet you want to stay, if it's not that you're a pervert then what is it?... Stop dawdling here and go catch the criminals.” Doctor Lou ordered.

Commander An blinked and quickly understood his meaning and looked down feeling slightly embarrassed. Doctor Lou chuckled and then pat his shoulder and started walking, ”I'll even draw their faces for you. You might not know this, but I'm very, very good at - ...Hmm, well...at most things so you're definitely in good hands.”

Commander An quickly followed behind him, although a bit begrudgingly. Doctor Lou was still a highly suspicious figure in his eyes. They had searched high and low for him in this city and outside but found nothing. For him to suddenly show up like this with no warning or notice made him even more questionable.

Meanwhile, inside the room.

Lei Xing slightly opened her eyes to see the figure of a man sitting next to her. She squeezed her eyes shut again and then turned her body to try to stand up but was finding it a bit hard as her limbs felt wobbly. Her breathing was also back to being labored. She frowned and opened her eyes to see her hands reaching for her and immediately panicked and the adrenaline gave her the energy she needed. She immediately sat up and shoved the hands away as she scurried to the end of the bed until she hit the wall as she barked, ”I said don't touch me!”

She braced herself up on the wall and frowned squeezing her eyes shut again as she took deep breaths. The irritating feelings were starting to bubble up again. Her body not only felt like it was burning but now it was starting to ache as well.

The Emperor frowned and remembered the hooligans who had tried to assault her and thought she must be traumatized by the event. So he slowly stretched out a hand towards her and tried to reassure her and softly said, ”Xing er', it's m-” But before he could finish his words, Lei Xing whipped her head back and brought it forward to bash it against the wall.

He quickly moved and put his hand out to protect her head. Lei Xing was completely unaware of this and thought she had been successful in her wall bashing and left her head there as she tried to control her mind. While the Emperor looked at her with worried eyes. With her behaving like this, it looked like he would have to force her, but then thinking of how she would react after, he could not bring himself to do it.

{...I really can't, not when she's like this...She might truly come to hate me then...}

He understood it needed to be done for her sake, but also felt it could not be done for her sake as well.

He lightly stroked her hair, not wanting to frighten her and softly said, ”Xing er', calm down. I won't touch you...Remember, I promised. You're safe here so calm down.”

Lei Xing went rigid and then stayed still for a while. After taking a few deep breaths, she removed her head from what she still thought was the wall and the Emperor immediately brought both his hands down.

Lei Xing held her head for a bit then shook it a few times trying to clear her mind. Then she squinted at him trying to make out who he was. After a few seconds, she came to
