Chapter 21

Author: Carefree MACHINE TRANSLATION

It was obvious that Si Zhanbei was a proud son of heaven while she was just a country girl. It would be strange if he liked her.

With this thought in mind, Sheng Fenghua’s excited and happy mood slowly calmed down, and a trace of loneliness flashed in her eyes.

Si Zhanbei looked at her expression and misunderstood. He thought that she was afraid, so he said, “don’t think too much. I was joking. ”

When Sheng Fenghua heard this, she couldn’t help but laugh at herself in her heart. Sure enough, she was thinking too much. He was just joking.

Thinking that she had recognized the truth, Sheng Fenghua’s face turned slightly cold. She looked up at Si Zhanbei and said, “it’s getting late. You should go back. ”

As soon as she said this, the ambiguous atmosphere in the room disappeared without a trace. Si Zhanbei stared at Sheng Fenghua for a while. When he saw that she no longer looked as shy as before, he could not help but feel strange.

He could see that Sheng Fenghua was unhappy, but he did not know what he had done to offend her.

Therefore, he frowned slightly and asked, “what’s wrong with you? ”

“Nothing, I’m sleepy and want to sleep. ” Sheng Fenghua replied indifferently, looking like she was chasing him away.

Si Zhanbei looked deeply at Sheng Fenghua and didn’t ask any more questions. He stood up and walked to a chair at the side and sat down.

Then, he took out a military magazine from somewhere and started to read it seriously.

Sheng Fenghua looked at Si Zhanbei sitting on the chair, looking like he didn’t intend to leave. She frowned and asked, “are you not planning to go back? ”

Si Zhanbei looked up at Sheng Fenghua and did not say anything. However, the meaning in his eyes was clear: You are right.

This time, Sheng Fenghua was completely confused. She pointed at the chair Si Zhanbei was sitting on and said, “there is no accompanying bed here, there is only a chair. Don’t tell me you are planning to sit here for the whole night? ”

“Yes! ” Si Zhanbei replied softly and then lowered his head to read a magazine.

This time, Sheng Fenghua was in a bad mood. She had just chased him back. Although she was angry, it was also because she felt sorry for him.

Not to mention that he had just returned from a mission and did not have much rest at all. He only said that he still had to work the next day, so she could not bear to let him endure it. Even a body made of iron could not withstand such a method.

Of course, if he was sleepy, he could also sleep on the chair like in the afternoon. But that would be very uncomfortable and she could not bear to do that.

So, Sheng Fenghua spoke again and said, “you can go back. I don’t need anyone to accompany me. ”

“It’s okay. ” Si Zhanbei did not raise his head and replied casually.

This time, Sheng Fenghua was a little angry. She didn’t know what she was angry about, so her voice couldn’t help but become louder. “I asked you to go back. Didn’t you hear me? ”

Her loud voice gave Si Zhanbei a fright. He raised his head and looked at her with a puzzled expression. “What’s wrong with you? ”

“Nothing. I just don’t want you to stay here and watch the night. It’s annoying to watch. ”

In order to let Si Zhanbei go back and rest, Sheng Fenghua said hurtful words against her heart.

Sure enough, when Si Zhanbei heard this, his expression instantly changed. He looked at her with a cold and hurt gaze and said, “What did you say? You don’t want to see me, right? ”

“Me? ”

Sheng Fenghua saw the hurt in Si Zhanbei’s eyes. She opened her mouth but was unable to say anything. She felt some regret in her heart. She regretted saying such words. After all, Si Zhanbei stayed behind for her.

As she thought about it, Sheng Fenghua lowered her head and said guiltily, “Si Zhanbei, I’m sorry! ”
