Chapter 276

Ye Xingguang looked up, his eyes entranced by the flawless handsomeness of the formidable man, who appeared to be half-awake and half-asleep. His mind hadn’t started processing yet, he was just blinking in a dizzy confusion, as if not understanding the current situation.

Jun Qing took in her adorable stunned expression. Unable to control his feelings, he bent down and lightly planted a kiss on her soft lips.

Feeling a bit embarrassed, Ye Xingguang pushed the man away. But Jun Qing didn’t let go of her. Instead, he seemed more interested. He propped himself up, a hand supporting her head while the other gently caressed her face.

With a gentle gaze, suffused with an intense emotion, he looked down at her. Deeply.

Being stared at this way made her heart flit around anxiously. It was a gaze that left her somewhat defenseless. noveldrama

Too passionate…

It captivated her entire being.

Feeling embarrassed, she looked away, her voice filled with shyness, “What are you doing?”

Jun Qing remained silent, simply replying with a soft chuckle.

Feeling even more embarrassed, Ye Xingguang asked again, her voice betraying her attempts to hide her shyness, “What are you really doing?”

Jun Qing was silent once more, still smiling. When he smiled, the coldness in his eyes disappeared, now filled with a light that was as comforting as a spring breeze, causing her heart to unintentionally heat up, feeling dizzy…

His gaze made her heart flutter.

She instinctively wanted to grab something, to hide her face, but she couldn’t. All she could do was helplessly endure his passionate yet tender stare, their lips hadn’t even touched, but she felt as if his gaze had already kissed her, inside out.

In the end, unable to bear it any longer, she surrendered, “I need to pee.”

Jung Qing propped his arm on the pillow, shifting his body to the side, “Go ahead.”

Ye Xingguang immediately sat up to escape. As she was about to put on her shoes, she noticed the white hotel slippers surrounded by rose petals arranged in the shape of a heart, a pleasant surprise.

Suppressing her enjoyment, she slipped on the slippers and hurried off to the bathroom.

Then, she quickly locked the bathroom door. Standing in front of the sink, she slapped her face. It was so red…and hot…

This formidable man was an expert at playing coy!

She’d barely kept herself in check earlier.

Ye Xingguang hid in the bathroom for a long time, avoiding going out for fear of becoming entrapped in his tender gaze. Until she heard a knock on the bathroom door, asking, “Did you fall into the toilet? Do you want me to come in and get you?”

Ye Xingguang rolled her eyes and finally left the bathroom.

“What do you want to eat?” asked Jun Qing.

Peering into the darkness outside, Ye Xingguang asked, “What time is it?”

“Nine forty.”

Ye Xingguang exclaimed, “It’s so late! I need to get back to the hospital; I have to take care of my dad tonight.”

Jun Qing didn’t give her a chance to put on her shoes and leave, telling her, “Your father said it’s the evening of Qixi Festival tonight. He doesn’t want his shining light bulb of a daughter to interrupt your mother’s celebration of his survival.”

“I bet my dad didn’t say that,” retorted Ye Xingguang.

Instead of arguing, Jun Qing showed her a message from her dad on his phone. It seemed they were already friends.

Ye Xingguang read and found out her dad really did send a message: [Tonight, your mother and I want to celebrate Qixi Festival in the hospital room. Don’t let Xingguang disturb us. She is a good kid, but she loves to be a third wheel in our romantic affairs. I don’t want to see her until after seven in the morning.]
