Mu Xiaoxiao leaned against Yin Shaojieâs chest and reached her hands behind him. Circling her arms around him, she buried her fac in his chest, as though she were seeking comfort.
She was actually in a panic and very afraid.
She had known Ye Sijue for many years. Even though she wasnât as close to him as she was with Yin Shaojie and Han Qiqing, she still felt for him.
The plan this time was not just to try to help Annie face her feelings, but also to help Ye Sijue.
Yin Shaojie wasnât the only one who cared for Ye Sijue as a close friend.
She also couldnât bear to see Ye Sijue lose the girl he loved.
However⦠it seemed like she had done something wrong.
Despite what Yin Shaojie said, Mu Xiaoxiaoâs tears still flowed, making damp spots on Yin Shaojieâs chest.
Yin Shaojie caressed her head and patted her gently as he comforted and coaxed her with his magnetic voice.
Annieâs heart ached sharply as she watched this romantic scene.
It made her think of her and Ye Sijueâ¦
If their positions were reversed, Ye Sijue would also comfort her thoughtfully, right?
She thought about how she had interacted with Ye Sijue in China.
Even though he had never confessed to her, his consideration and doting were specially reserved for her. Didnât that already signify a confession?
How could she be so stupidâ¦
The nurse from before came back with some medicine. She walked up to Annie.
âMiss, is your throat injured? Let me have a look.â
Annie looked at her expressionlessly and nodded slowly.
The nurse checked her throat before giving her some medicine to consume.
After drinking the medicine, Annie felt some relief in her throat.
Just then, a tall figure rushed over quickly.
âAnnie, are you alright?â Chris asked.
Upon hearing his voice, Annie lifted her head slowly and met Chrisâs eyes.
She shook her head mechanically. âIâm fineâ¦â
The person who wasnât alright was not her, but Ye Sijue.
Chris looked her over thoroughly and upon determining that there was nothing wrong with her, let out a relieved sigh. âThatâs good then. Letâs go. Itâs late. Iâll send you home.â
âNo!â Annie snatched her hand away swiftly. Her gaze was blank as she said, âI donât want to go back. I want to stay here.â
How could she leave before she knew what the outcome of the operation was?
She had to know if Ye Sijue was going to be alright.
Chris frowned. âWhat use is there if you stay here? Youâre not a doctor! Letâs go. Someone will inform me if thereâs any news about him.â
It was already very late and he wasnât going to let her continue to stay in the hospital, of course.
Alsoâ¦
Chris was displeased that Ye Sijue had let Annie encounter such danger and the only thing he wanted now was to bring his little princess back home.
Annie twisted away from his grip, as though she were trying to hide from him. Shrinking into her seat, she shook her head and insisted demandingly, âI donât want to! I want to stay here! I want to ensure that heâs fine!ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Chris looked a little furious as he said in a low rumble, âAnnie, listen to me!â
Annie bit her lip, but resisted him, and even turned her head away to avoid his gaze.
