Lin Chu glared at him fiercely, “Get back to your bed and rest!”
She could still hear Yan Beicheng’s stifled laughs after walking out of the bedroom. It sounded like he was trying his best not to laugh out loud, but he could not help it and the laughter was rolling about in his throat. He was laughing at her, but Lin Chu could not help that her heart beat faster and her face burnt hotter from his sexy, pleasant laughter.
She cleaned all the cutlery and utensils but did not immediately go back. She took out a bottle of water from the fridge to roll it about on her face to cool down the burning sensation on it before taking a deep breath and returning to check on Yan Beicheng.
He did not look like a patient at all, based on his energetic performance just now.
She saw Yan Beicheng sitting on the bed the moment she entered. He was leaning against the bedhead and talking on the phone, his long feet crossed casually. The sunlight from the window shone on him. It was serenely picturesque, and Lin Chu stood gaping at him from the door.
This quiet, serene moment shot Lin Chu right in the heart. It made her heartbeat slowed back to normal as she felt a warmth surrounding it, but at the same time, it was making her flustered.
“I know,” Yan Beicheng hung up and looked at Lin Chu.
Lin Chu immediately got back to her senses and walked in nonchalantly, and heard him say, “I have to make a trip to the school. That rascal, Ning Bai, just created some sort of trouble and the teachers would like to meet the parents. His dad will only be back next week, and his mum is in T City collecting some evidence.”
He looked at the time, “But it’s not that urgent right now. We’ll meet at 3pm later. That will be when school is out.”
Lin Chu looked at Yan Beicheng’s condition. The medicine seemed to have kicked in, he looked sleepy and his voice sounded tired and scratchy.
“How will you go over there this afternoon?” Lin Chu asked.
Yan Beicheng took a look at her and smiled, “Can I trouble you to give me a lift?”
Lin Chu, “…”
Yan Beicheng, “I’m worried I’ll doze off while driving.”
Lin Chu, “…”
Yan Beicheng, “You’ll never bear to see something happen to me.”
Lin Chu, “…”
Yan Beicheng did not give Lin Chu the chance to respond and laid down to sleep immediately.
Lin Chu was relieved. At least she did not have to face him. The pressure was off.
She did not dare to touch the computer in his room, in case there was something important inside. So, she went to the living room to watch television instead. She went to the bedroom to check on Yan Beicheng’s condition once in a while and tucked him in his blanket.
As the time came close to leave, Lin Chu came into his bedroom again intending to wake him up. Yan Beicheng had kicked away the blanket, one of his long legs was exposed and while the other side of the blanket was high above his tummy.
“Yan Beicheng,” Lin Chu tried to shake him awake but his long arms suddenly reached out and wrapped her around the waist, pulling her into his arms. He turned his body to the side and laid his long legs on her waist, hugging her in his arms like a bolster.
This time, Lin Chu did not give in and pinched him on the arm, but his arms were hard, and she did not even know if she managed to hurt him. All she knew was that her hands were the ones that were hurt.
