”Oh.” Chen Xi Wu laid on top of him, her head on his chest as she listened to his heartbeat. A few minutes later, she poked his chest with her finger.

”Hold on a little longer.” He was still lying on the ground, unable to get up.

”What's so good about lying on the floor? You didn't fall, did you? It's all your fault, you can't even walk without any sound, you scared me … ”Uh, no, how did you get in?”

She suddenly remembered the question.

”That's the question you should have asked last night.” ”I have a key to your apartment, so it's convenient to steal from you later.”

”Pei, it's so beautiful that it could kill you!”

Chen Xi Wu stared at him accusingly. She raised her face and smiled.

Xi Shuai Zhe also smiled, but that smile only lasted for a second before it froze on the corner of his mouth. He squinted his eyes to look at Chen Xi's face, and his breath suddenly changed.

”Did you get beaten up? ”Who is it?”

His large hands were holding her hips as he lifted her up. His voice was filled with a chill as he caressed the palm print on her face that was not completely clear.

Chen Xi Wu tilted her head slightly and avoided his hand. ”It's alright, you don't need to ask.”

Things had already happened, and there was no need to say anything. Talking to him always made him feel like he was complaining.

Propping himself up and helping her to sit up, he put his arm around her waist and kept asking, ”Is it Abby?”

”How do you know …” ”Hmm.”

Sensing her slip of tongue, Chen Xi kept her mouth shut and rubbed his pale face. She said in a crisp voice, ”I didn't lose out. I hit him back.”

”So, very proud?”

Xi Jiange was at a loss of whether to laugh or cry.

”Of course. Ever since I found out that she had someone inject you with illegal drugs, I wanted to hit her. That's what I wanted.”

”Even if you get slapped for it, you still think it's worth it?”

”It's good that I can help you vent your anger.”
