Chapter 207 - I Will Listen to You (1/2)
Almost five minutes has passed before Li Qin Yao realized the situation she was in—in Zhang Yu Han's embrace on his bed.
His arms were encircling her body as his hand moved to ċȧrėss her upper arms as if coaxing her.
Her face grew hot when she noticed that he had buried his nose in the crook of her neck. His soft breath and lips touched her skin and that area slowly became numb.
Fortunately, her back was facing him. Or else, Zhang Yu Han would be worried that he might have infected her with his fever when he saw her reddened face.
Li Qin Yao struggled out of his embrace and stood up. She turned to face him and saw the questioning look in his face.
”What's wrong?” Zhang Yu Han asked. They were fine just a few seconds ago and he was enjoying the sensation of having her petite frame in his arms after not seeing her for a few days. Of course, seeing that she had pulled away so suddenly made him feel lost.
Li Qin Yao stared at his confused expression and suddenly did not know what to do. Her gaze fell on the medicines on the side table and spoke, ”You need to eat something before you take your medicine. I'll go and prepare something for you to eat. You should get yourself clean up first.”
Zhang Yu Han watched speechlessly as the girl scurried away from his room. Once she disappeared from his eyesight, Zhang Yu Han let out a chuckle. He sat silently on his bed and covered his face with his large palm.
A frown appeared on his face as he remembered the feeling of her body against him. As a gentleman, he had restrained himself well enough.
Taking a deep breath to compose himself, Zhang Yu Han stood up from his bed and walked towards the window. The sky was dark blue with a tinge of orange. As his bedroom was facing east, he was able to watch the sun starting to rise.
Just how long was he asleep?
He walked over the table and grabbed his phone. Finding that it has run out of battery, Zhang Yu Han plugged in his phone. Five minutes later, he turned on his phone and found almost hundreds of missed calls and messages. Most of them were from his girlfriend.
His heart grew warm as he read her texts. Suddenly, he was overcome with guilt. He couldn't imagine how worried she was when she could not reach him last night. As he read her text messages, Zhang Yu Han could see how anxious she was.
After replying to a few important messages, Zhang Yu Han walked into the bathroom. Once he had taken a quick shower, Zhang Yu Han walked out of his bedroom only to find his girlfriend in the kitchen. His steps halted as he was mesmerized by the scenery in front of him.
Li Qin Yao had an apron on and she was facing the stove, stirring something in the pot. A delicious smell wafted from the kitchen to where he was standing and Zhang Yu Han was momentarily in a daze.
It seemed like this situation was somewhat familiar to him.
The last time he was drunk and found himself back in his bedroom in his Grandfather's residence, he had seen a situation similar to this.
Back then, she was preparing breakfast in his grandfather's kitchen along with Auntie Wu and his sister. But this time, she was alone and she was cooking something in his kitchen.
