Chapter 144 - Awkward scene

But on that day, Zuan's opinion of Jingyu had completely changed. She had realised that this arrogant boy loved Xuan so much that he was willing to change himself for her.

Zuan had actually seen proof of Jingyu's love. He had gone under a massive change since meeting Xuan. Jingyu was still quick tempered but he no longer took it out on other people. Who knew? With time maybe he could become a nice person. He did have a good heart on himself.

Zuan's thoughts were interupted by Kio's voice. "Will you ever approve of me?" he had asked in a small voice.

Mo Kio fully anticipated Zuan to straight up answer no. She was the ice queen after all.

But to Kio's surprise, Lu Zuan spoke in a small voice, "Maybe. Maybe one day." after which she settled in her seat and closed her eyes.

Meanwhile. . . .

Mo Kio gently carried Ying Xuan down from the rooftop and out of the building.

He also hailed a taxi and took her to a hospital.

Once the two were back on campus, Jingyu took Ying Xuan back to her room.

He had messaged Shi Weiwei to help him past the guard but she hadn't replied. Luckily, the guard was nowhere in sight and Wei Jingyu slipped in quietly without incident.

But as soon as he opened the door of Xuan's room, Jingyu stood petrified.

He had walked in on Ying Xi making out with someone. Jingyu stood at the door awkwardly, wondering what to do. He almost wanted to take a 180 degree turn and take Xuan back to his own room. He wasn't suddenly sure that Xuan would be very safe here.

But he couldn't do that as Ying Xi and the boy had already noticed him by this time.

They broke apart and stared at him, carrying Ying Xuan and standing in the doorway.

Jingyu coughed awkwardly and said, "Sorry. I didn't mean to interrupt."

The boy looked awkward and Xi sighed. Jingyu turned around saying, "I'll take Xuan someplace else to sleep."

But Ying Xi suddenly cried out, "NO!!!!!!"

Both of the boys turned to look at her and she composed herself saying, "No Jingyu, wait. Yunchu was leaving anyways."

"I was?" the boy asked, surprised.

Xi nodded and the boy called Yunchu looked from Ying Xi to Wei Jingyu, to Ying Xuan in his arms. He then pecked Xi and said, "Call me." before shuffling out of the room.

After the boy left, Ying Xi stood near her bed, not knowing what to do.

Wei Jingyu calmly walked upto Xuan's bed and gently laid her there.

He had just taken off Xuan's heels when Ying Xi's voice rung through the room, "That was just a one night stand. I was really nervous because of the exams and I. . . ."

But Wei Jingyu cut in. He said, "I don't care."

Ying Xi was thunderstruck by Jingyu's cold reply. She stood petrified while Wei Jingyu gently looked at Xuan's bandaged foot and massaged it. He then plopped down on Xuan's study chair, suddenly feeling the fatigue from the whole day.

Ying Xi recovered herself and walked forward, saying, "Let me change her." Jingyu said nothing and there was complete silence in the room as Ying Xi took out a set of PJs from Xuan's wardrobe and helped her put it on.
