Chapter 973. Wake Up (1)
He looked at her face and noticed she was still awfully pale, so he sat down beside her. “It’s 8 p.m. now. You haven’t been sleeping for very long. Are you hungry? Qi Lei asked Yang Sheng to get us some dinner. Here, I’ll feed you.” He turned around and grabbed the food boxes.
“I’m not hungry yet. How’s Qi Lei?”
“He just left not too long ago,” he replied quietly.
Xi Xiaye looked at her heavily bandaged arms while she could also feel some discomfort on her forehead too. She raised her hand to touch it slightly. As expected, it was bandaged up as well. She frowned and looked at him worriedly. “Will the injuries leave scars?”
She remembered the moment when the shards came right at her. Even the memory of it terrified her. Fortunately, she had turned her head around quickly enough and managed to avoid fatal injuries.
“You’re only thinking about that now. What were you thinking about before? You didn’t think of calling me when you noticed something was not right. Did you remember what you promised me the last time? Don’t look at me like that. I’m not going to go easy on you. You have to reflect on your actions!
“You didn’t listen to me at all. Don’t you understand what kind of person Qi Feng is? How many times have I reminded you already? Do you actually listen to me?” Mu Yuchen’s tone was stern. It was his very first time speaking to her in such a harsh tone.
Xi Xiaye looked at him in astonishment, unsure what to say. She lowered her head out of guilt as she spoke quietly, “I’m fine!”
“It’s already too late if you’re not fine. When will you let me not worry about you? Where are the bodyguards? Why didn’t you bring them with you?” He completely ignored her pitiful look and continued with his lecture. Xi Xiaye was not very fond of his stern yet handsome face, but she maintained her innocence.
