Bai Lei hugs me tight as he turns to the physician and asks him about Ren. "He will be back to new in a day. Just let him rest." The physician says with a small smile but when he looks back to me, his eyes flicker with... fear? Why?
Bai Lei nods and quickly drags me out of the small room. He doesn't stop until we're back in his courtyard. Little Bun jumps down and takes off to the snack bowl I set up for him in the room. Bai Lei pulls me back into a tight hug as he gently strokes my back. I push against him as I lean back and say "I'm fine."
I try to step away but he doesn't allow me as he says "We need to clear up a few things." I lift my eyebrows at him and wait. He just smirks at me and says "I should have been more clear with you earlier. I don't think any less of you, Nova. I love you and the thought of you sleeping with other men had me jealous, not disgusted."
