Xiao Yun's eyelashes flutter as it opens, the pair of wide-eye sparkle from the light that shone upon it. Accompanied by the soreness of her throat, a throbbing pain struck her head. Xiao Yun raises her body and sat on the bed while holding her head with her left hand.
In midst of remembering what happened, a warm and firm hand grip her palm. She looks toward her right in confusion. Before Xiao Yun was about to gasp from what she saw, her left hand had covered her mouth in reflex. 'Li Lei?! Oh, my god!! What happened? How could Li Lei be here?'
Xiao Yun observe Li Lei for a while checking whether hew truly asleep or not. 'Was I really that blind in the past...Li Lei's face is very handsome...But why didn't I see that before?'- As her eyes grew closer to Li Lei's, a sharp black colored eyes opens suddenly.
The four eyes gaze at each other without a blink.
Suddenly a person came inside the room uninvited after a few knock with a loud cheerful voice. Andy, "Yo!- Xiao Yun, you've just woken up?
As if two people having an affair, Xiao Yun froze. From Andy's point of view, Xiao Yun's face was only a thin paper away from Li Lei's...it was as if she was trying to take advantage of the peacefully sleeping Li Lei!
Andy falters back a few steps without a word and closes the door. Less than a second, Andy opens the door and whisper from it, "It's okay, you two can continue...I didn't see anything- At all! Take your sweet times together!" and closes the door in a hurry.
Xiao Yun gulps, take a deep breath before turning her face toward Li Lei with an awkward laugh. Xiao Yun, "Hehehe..."
Li Lei raises his body and releases his hand from her palm, asking, "Are you alright? Do you feel any soreness- Wait here, I'll bring you some water."
Xiao Yun took the water cup from Li Lei's hand, her heart sounds so loud that her hands began to tremble. Taking a few sips from the cup, Li Lei walk toward the door and pull Andy who was trying to eavesdrop from the door with his ears glued closely.
Li Lei order him coldly, "Do your job."
Andy pouts his lips after not being able to hear any sweet or romantic words from the two and continues to check on Xiao Yun.
After checking Xiao Yun, Andy continue his report, "Lack of sleep! Lack of nutrition! Lack of water! Aiya! Xiao Yun, you're lacking everything. No, wonder you could faint that easily."
Xiao Yun pursed her lips, the reason behind her lack of sleep and lack of nutrition must be because of the nightmares that she saw for the past four days...Nightmare of that demon...
Li Lei took the water cup from Xiao Yun's hand and fill it once again attentively. Taking the chance, Andy whispered to Xiao Yun, "Did you see something frightening? Or do you have any phobia?"
Xiao Yun shook her head and answered with another whisper, "No...I don't think so-"
Andy thought in silence, "It's only my speculation, but perhaps you also fainted because of mental fear."
'Mental fear...' Xiao Yun eyes opened wide, she remembered! She met Zheng Xi Shi in the cafe!
'But why?' There's no way he went there because of Yeon Jun's order...After all, I had never met Yeon Jun yet in this life!' Her hands began to trembles unconsciously.
Xiao Yun look at her shaking hand and scoffed, 'After all that happened to me, I'm still afraid?'
Xiao Yun hated herself for being weak and smile mockingly to her weak self. The memory of Zheng Xi Shi killing a person still remains very fresh on her mind as if it was yesterday. It was normal for a spoiled young lady like her to be afraid.
But-
Li Lei from the side put the cup of water to the table beside her and warmly smiled as he sat next to her. Seeing the smile that she failed to protect in her past life, she bends her fingers into a fist.
The powerful grip on her hand dissolves her trembling and fear.
She couldn't be weak anymore! She would never!
