Chapter 392: Would She Dislike Him

Translator:Atlas StudiosEditor:Atlas Studios

Mu Xiaoxiao was startled. How could he still be acting so roguish at a time like this? She was unsure whether to laugh or cry. But hearing his rough voice and pale complexion, she could not help but feel sorry for him.

"Look at your parched lips. Have some water first." she said, casting a glance at him as if saying that he would get his reward if he just behaved obediently.

Yin Shaojie also felt that his throat was really dry. His usual magnetic and alluring voice had become quite unpleasant to hear.Will she dislike me because of this?

With that thought, he nodded his head obediently.

Mu Xiaoxiao smiled and touched his head. "That's better. Now, let go of your hand, and let me go get some water."

He had been holding on to her hand ever since he was unconscious. Though she had not used much force, she felt that her hand was really aching.

Suddenly she thought of the saying "May your hand be in mine till the end of time." Indeed, to be with someone for a whole lifetime was not easy.

Though Yin Shaojie was displeased that she was talking to him as if she was coaxing a child, he still loosened his grip.

Actually, he also could not remember why he was holding on to her while he was unconscious.

Now that he had released his hand, he was starting to feel the aching sensation in his wrist. He was already weak with fever, yet all his remaining energy had been spent gripping her hand.

"Wait for me here, and I'll be right back," Mu Xiaoxiao said. She then got down of the bed, wore her slippers, and went out.

Yin Shaojie's gaze followed her as she left, and he paused, staring at the door.

After a few minutes, Mu Xiaoxiao finally returned with the water.

The moment she entered the bedroom, she immediately noticed his gaze fixated on her as if he was afraid that she would run away.

Mu Xiaoxiao's heart throbbed for a moment.Does this guy need to watch me so closely?

He's already sick and weak, yet he still kept watching the door. Doesn't his eyes get tired?

Though she was criticizing him inside, she felt, inexplicably, that Yin Shaojie was pretty lovable like this.

Mu Xiaoxiao's smile became gentler as she walked to the bed. She patted the blanket on him and said, "Get up and have some water."

"Why did you take so long to get some water?" Yin Shaojie was displeased when he asked. He looked very frail, and his voice was much hoarser and weaker than before. "I feel like I'm running empty... My body has no more strength. I can't get up."

His eyes drooped, looking pitiful as he said that.

Mu Xiaoxiao did not know what else to do with him, so she placed the glass on the nightstand, leaned forward, and helped him up.

Yin Shaojie wrapped both his arms around her, almost all his weight pressing on her.

"Why are you so heavy?" Mu Xiaoxiao grumbled, but she still expended all her strength to help him up.

Finally, he was sitting up. However, the Great Master Yin seemed like he had no intention of letting go of her as the arms that were wrapping around her were now hugging her slender waist instead.

He propped his chin on her shoulder, and his tall nose dug into her neck.

His nose was full of her scent.

"Hey..." Mu Xiaoxiao wanted to get up as she felt uncomfortable with her waist bent in that posture.

"Don't move. Let me recharge," Yin Shaojie said as he hugged her closer.

"Recharge what?" Mu Xiaoxiao did not understand him, her black eyes batting as she looked at him, but she could only see the back of his head and his hair.

Seeing him from such a close distance, she realized that his hair was really soft.
