Chapter 20: Tan Jiao 04 (2)
My head was hurting so much that it numbed me, and hot tears came flowing out from my eyes. I opened my eyes after some time to be greeted by a faint glow of light from above us. Then, I discovered that I had somehow ended up in Wu Yu’s embrace.
He leaned against the wall with his arms around my waist looking down at me, while I sat on his thighs.
An involuntary shiver ran through my body abruptly as though someone was tickling my waist with a feather; his gaze at me was that feather. I pushed him away, intending to get up, yet he held onto me, immobilizing me, causing my heart to skip a beat.
We exchanged a few words before he wanted to check on the wound on the top of my head. Since I had already come to my senses and was worried about how ugly the wound was, perhaps with hair loss and blood, I did not want to let him see it.
As such, I resolutely refused to not allow him to see the top of my head.
I looked up and was surprised to see him smiling. I asked, “What are you smiling at?”
He replied, “Nothing. I just think that you’re very cute.”
I became speechless all of a sudden, him as well. There was very little space between us, and suddenly, I felt a slight tingle on my chin; it was the gentle touch from his finger.
I felt I must have lost my mind; going out late at night, rushing toward danger, and even sitting on the lap of a repairman I had only known for three days.
