Chapter 33 - The Awkwardness After Hug (1/2)

6:30 pm

Jun Zixuan glanced at the time before looking towards the kitchen. She has been washing the dishes for more than one hour already.

He glanced at the headlines regarding worsening weather conditions before switching off the T.V.

He glanced towards the kitchen, thinking whether he should go to check on her or not.

He turned around walked towards the staircase but he paused in his tracks…

In the end, he made his way towards the kitchen.

”You….” He stood rooted to the spot as he looked at the scene that greeted him.

Yu Mei was lying on the floor, motionless.

She was holding her phone in her left hand while her right hand was covered in soap lather.

He squatted beside her before holding her arm, ”Hey, what happened to you?” He shook her a little but there was no response except for her heavy breathing.

Her face was slightly red.

Frowning, he put his hand on her forehead and he could feel his hand burning under her body temperature.

Without wasting another second, he pulled her closer before carrying her in a princess carry.

As he ascended the staircase, he walked towards her room but there a pin required for the door to open.

”I'm not carrying you again…Fatty,” He murmured before walking towards his room.

”Uhh…No…Don't..” The woman's hoarse voice sounded beside his ear as he put her on his bed.

”You're awake…” He paused as he glanced at her face.

The woman was talking unconsciously.

He tried to call his doctor but the call didn't go through.

Looking at the weather conditions, no hospitals would be available at this time.

He brought a wet towel from the bathroom before sitting beside her. He wiped her face and neck with it.

Her mouth parted slightly as she tried to speak something…

”Do you need something?” He patted her cheek.

”Ji…” As the woman spoke some gibberish, he lowered his trying to listen to what was she trying to say, ”Ji-Jian Yu, where are you…?”

He pursed his lips and threw the towel to the floor. A leopard will change its spot but this woman won't.

He must be crazy to be concerned about her.

He stood up from the bed but just as he took a step, she grabbed his fingers, lightly tugging them.

He turned around to look at her. Her face was stained with tears as she sobbed silently. Not even a single noise escaped her lips but her breathing was uneven.

”Do you want to die?” He flicked her forehead before sitting beside her.
