C143 Could It be That She Was Thinking too Much?
It was late at night and the hospital was very quiet. Occasionally, a nurse would pass by outside the ward. Their footsteps were also very light. In the ward, there was only the sound of the instrument. Jian Yun closed her eyes but did not fall asleep. Huo Liancheng did not speak again. She could feel his breathing was steady. The strong breath was behind her ear and made her feel uncomfortable.
Jian Yun silently counted in her heart. She counted until 1000 before she quietly opened her eyes and slowly turned her head. What she saw was Huo Liancheng sleeping soundly with his eyes lowered.
Perhaps he was tired after running all night. At this moment, he was very quiet. His dense long eyelashes covered his sharp eyes, making him not look as cold as he did in the day. It added a trace of gentleness. Under the tall and straight nose was beautiful lips. The upper lip was thin and the lower lip was moist. It was the legendary lips.
Without a doubt, Huo Liancheng had a handsome face that could overturn all living things. If Jian Yun was not attracted at all, then it was a lie. Everyone liked beautiful women. Moreover, he was such an outstanding man. In the beginning, he had approached her and made her heart beat faster, but that was all.
Jian Yun's emotional world was very simple. She had only loved Xu Haiyang, but she had given everything she had in exchange for a violent betrayal. This made Jian Yun fear love from now on. She did not dare to love again. She had not fallen in love for six years, and her heart was as calm as still water. She originally thought that she would end her life like this, at most, find a man with However, she did
His appearance disturbed her peaceful life and also her heart. Although some aspects of him were really annoying, if he treated her as gently as he treated her today, Jian Yun was really afraid that she would not be able to protect her heart.
Once she lost her heart, it would be beyond redemption.
She was very afraid of being hurt again. She valued relationships too much. It took her a long time to get out of the shadow of being betrayed by Xu Haiyang. She was really afraid.
Thinking of this, Jian Yun couldn't help but sigh. Then, she laughed at her own wishful thinking. He had already said that he would not fall for her. He married her for a different purpose. Now, he was so close to her. It was just his daily life. If it was any other woman who could catch his eye, he would probably be like this.
So, what was there for her to be conflicted about?
In the year she was with him, all she had to do was to guard her duty well. If he was good to her, she would repay him in her own way. In short, she absolutely could not fall in love with him.
Jian Yun did not know when she had fallen asleep. In her haze, she only felt that she was very warm and made her feel at ease.
What Jian Yun did not know was that Huo Liancheng did not sleep at all. When she turned her head to look at him, Huo Liancheng discovered it. The hospital bed was too cramped. He could not even put down his long legs. Together with the two of them sleeping together, even if Jian Yun was small and did not occupy a place, Huo Liancheng could not stretch it open. Therefore, it was impossible for him to sleep.
Huo Liancheng sensed Jian Yun looking at him, and he was secretly delighted. Although he did not care about his looks, the woman he liked saw him fall in love with her, and it would make his man's vanity very satisfied. But this girl looked after him. Why was she sighing? It made him feel uncomfortable. He did not know what she meant by sighing.
Jian Yun did not sleep well. Before six o'clock, she was woken up by a knock on the door. It was the nurse who came to check the night. When she woke up, she found that Huo Liancheng was not by her side.
"Jian Yun, I envy you. You have such a handsome boyfriend!" After the three nurses finished checking, they surrounded Jian Yun with a face full of envy, jealousy, and hatred.
"Your boyfriend is really good to you. It would be great if I had such a handsome boyfriend!" A younger nurse covered her heart with her hands and her face was red.
Jian Yun awkwardly twitched her mouth. She did not know what to say. These nurses did not have eyes to see. Her mother's life was still unknown. They actually said such things in such an occasion.
The older head nurse saw that Jian Yun's expression was not good and quickly scolded the two nurses, "This is the ward. What nonsense are you talking about? Be careful not to deduct your prize money!"
The two nurses also reacted and hurriedly apologized, "Ah, I'm sorry, I'm sorry! We are confused!"
"Jian Yun, they are young and insensible. Don't mind them." The head nurse smiled.
"It's okay!" Jian Yun smiled. She also knew that Huo Liancheng was too eye-catching. It would not be normal if no one paid attention to him.
"Then let's go!" The head nurse led the two nurses out the door.
"Wait!" Jian Yun stopped them again, "Did you see him?"
"He is in the garden outside." The young nurse pointed outside the window, her eyes sparkling.
"Thank you!" Jian Yun thanked them and watched the three nurses walk out of the door. She walked to the window and lifted a corner of the curtain to look outside. It was still dark and there were street lamps in the garden. She could see a tall figure standing under the streetlights. Her back was facing this direction and she did not know what she was doing.
Jian Yun could not help feeling a little strange in her heart. She turned around to look at Ouyang Fei and shook her hand. Only then did she put on her coat and walk out of the door towards the garden.
The garden was very quiet. Only the sound of cars passing by could be heard occasionally. Jian Yun's footsteps were very light. Until she walked behind Huo Liancheng, Huo Liancheng did not notice her.
"What are you doing?" Jian Yun asked softly.
Huo Liancheng suddenly turned his head. He seemed to have just noticed Jian Yun coming over. Surprise flashed across his handsome face. He threw the cigarette in his hand onto the ground and used the soles of his shoes to rub it a few times before asking, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
But Jian Yun was shocked by his blood-red eyes. She subconsciously asked, "You drank?"
She still remembered the time when she sent him home. It was because of drinking that her eyes turned blood red. Last night at the Myth Club, his eyes were also red to a terrifying extent.
"No!" Huo Liancheng denied.
"Why are your eyes so red?" Jian Yun suddenly smelled the smell of smoke. She waved her hand and looked down. When she saw more than ten cigarette butts on the ground, she could not help frowning. "Why do you smoke so much?"
Huo Liancheng narrowed his eyes and glanced at Jian Yun. After that, he meaningfully asked her back. "What do you think?"
Jian Yun was confused, "How would I know?"
Huo Liancheng did not explain. He saw Jian Yun's face turn white from the cold, so he took off his coat and draped it over her body. "It's cold outside. Let's go in first."
The spring morning was indeed very cold. The wind blew on her body like it was going to drill into her bones. Jian Yun was wearing thin clothes. She had been hugging her arms all this time, so she did not insist. She let Huo Liancheng carry her to the ward. However, she was wearing clothes with his body temperature and breath. She always felt that she was being carried by him. She felt a little strange in her heart.
After entering the small building, the warmth came. Jian Yun felt that it was not that cold anymore, but she still remembered that question, "You still haven't said why you're not sleeping, why are you outside before dawn?"
