Luo Sang opened her eyes groggily as she felt the sharp prick of the cannula. Only then did she notice Nian Junting sitting by the bed.

“You’re running a fever. They’re giving you some fluids now, catch some sleep, I’ll keep an eye on you.”

He cupped her icy hands in his own, his eyes exuding warmth and love for her.

Luo Sang’s heavy eyelids fell shut.

In her confusion, she vaguely recalled how Yi Jingxi took everything from the Xu family, leaving her with nothing and her health in shambles.

She once ran a persistent fever for days, even fainting without anyone by her side, forcing her to drag herself to the emergency department for a drip.

She was on drips for five hours straight without anyone delivering food to her, she had to suffer silently with her gastritis.

Thinking about what happened then, she found it fascinating that she managed to pull through those difficult times.

Now, she had him by her side.

She was reassured.

She mustered up all her strength to give his hands a little squeeze.

A single tear rolled down the side of her cheek.

Nian Junting watched the tear wet the pillow she was lying on and gently wiped it away.

However, he found it hard to control his jealousy and anger when he thought about Luo Sang’s history with Yi Jingxi.

He knew how much hardships she had been through and he couldn’t bear to make things any more difficult. All he wanted to do now was to protect her and never let anyone else hurt her again.

…

Sunday morning, the morning glow of the sun flooded the windows of Xia City.

The curtains in the hospital ward danced with the light breeze.

Luo Sang felt as if a giant heatpack had been placed beside her, continuously radiating heat, leaving her feeling warm and cozy.

She turned over to wrap her arms around the giant heatpack. Only that it did not feel like a giant heatpack, and there seemed to be something pressing against her abdomen.

Her eyes snapped open.

An almost ludicrously handsome face appeared in front of her. Nian Junting was in deep slumber, a growing ring of dark circles starting to form under his eyes. His luscious eyebrows and soft lips reminded her of a young boy.

She was not in the mood for adoration however. This was the first time she had shared a bed with and slept in the arms of a grown man, especially with his groin…

Her mind was buzzing.

She blinked her eyes rapidly and pushed Nian Junting aside with a loud yelp.

Nian Junting startled awake as he fell from the edge of the bed onto the floor with a loud thud.

Luo Sang was still in a daze.

After a couple of seconds, Nian Junting pulled himself to his feet angrily and said between gritted teeth, “Luo Sang…”

She looked at his crotch dizzily.

Nian Junting followed her gaze. His lips curled into a smile, “Has it been too long since the last time? Must be familiar to you.”

“Familiar your ass,” Luo Sang cursed, flustered and embarrassed.

Even though she had seen his erection before when she used to bathe him, she was not his girlfriend then and she had not thought more of it.

Now however, things were different. Just at the sight of his bulging crotch, she only wanted to dig herself a hole and hide. Yet, Nian Junting seemed to show not a single hint of embarrassment.

“I don’t like vulgar women,” Nian Junting retorted.

Luo Sang took a few deep breaths and said between gritted teeth, “You were the one who slept in my bed in the first place. Were you trying to take advantage of me while I was ill?”

“I was planning to sleep on the sofa but it’s not long enough for me. I’d wake up with a sore back,” Nian Junting said nonchalantly.
