Chapter 1987: Emotional Deterioration (4)
Upon arriving at the hotel, Jiaojiao took a shower and comfortably lay down. The next morning, before she was even awake, Duan Xi came to her room to call her up.
Jiaojiao hadn’t rested well on the train for two days. Although she slept early last night, she still felt she hadn’t slept enough. Hearing the knock on the door, she didn’t want to get up, turned over on the bed, drowsily shouted towards the door a couple of times, not caring whether the person outside could hear, and then closed her eyes again to continue sleeping.
She didn’t know how long she slept for. When she opened her eyes again, she saw Duan Xi sitting by the bedside watching her, his gaze was direct and fixed, and his face was getting closer.
She was startled, clutching the bed covers to her chest as she looked at him, "Brother Xi, why are you sitting here?"
She glanced around and noticed the blazing sunshine outside the half-open window. She immediately lifted her hand to look at her watch and found it was already almost eleven o’clock!
Jiaojiao was astonished and sat up in a fright, asking Duan Xi, "Brother Xi, it’s so late, why didn’t you call me?"
But Duan Xi didn’t respond. Jiaojiao looked up confusedly, only to see Duan Xi staring at her, his gaze fixated on her chest. Suspiciously, she looked down... and instantly blushed, hurriedly covering her slightly cool chest and shyly exclaimed, "Brother Xi!"
Duan Xi snapped out of it, his face also a bit flushed. He quickly stood up, awkwardly looked away, and in his nervousness accidentally bumped his thigh against the chair behind him.
He dared not look rudely at Jiaojiao again, with his ears turning red, he gazed out the window and said in a hoarse voice, "I’ll wait for you outside." After saying this, he immediately left the room.
