C25 A Sudden Kiss

The moment those words left her mouth, she immediately realized that she had said the wrong thing. She hurriedly wiped away her tears and hurriedly explained, "I'm saying … In other words … "Sorry for troubling you, I …"

For a moment, Chu Qingyan didn't know how to justify her actions. She was so stifled that it made her panic.

Lee Jingyu smiled: "Alright, don't be so polite. We are friends, so don't be so formal. If one day I get sick and I go to the hospital, you have to take care of me too!"

She had no way to repay his kindness.

"I'll take care of you!"

Be serious and take care of her wholeheartedly.

Besides that, Chu Qingyan didn't know how else to thank him.

"Then that's enough. Don't carry that burden on your mind anymore. Relax and rest properly. Your wounds must be very painful, right?" He looked at her intently, then suddenly reached out and combed the hair on her face behind her ears.

Chu Qingyan was shocked by Lee Jingyu's performance.

Her eyes widened in panic. His hand was still behind her ear, warm and gentle.

"Chu Qingyan, actually, I …"

His black eyes seemed to be able to speak. They flickered with light and encompassed thousands of words. His words were so monotonous that it was hard to say, "I …"

If she hadn't seen him for herself, she really wouldn't have believed that Lee Jingyu, who was swift and decisive in the shopping mall, would have such an indecisive moment.

Before he could finish his words, Chu Qingyan already had a premonition of what he was going to say.

Chu Qingyan interrupted him out of an ostrich mentality, "Director Lee, rest quickly, we still have to work tomorrow!"

"En!"

Lee Jingyu nodded heavily. He stood up, turned around and walked to the bed.

Stopping in his tracks, he turned his head slightly and said in a low voice that Chu Qingyan could clearly hear, "Actually, I like you."

After a struggle, he finally said it out loud.

She stared at his back, her heart aching.

Knowing is one thing, hearing is another.

Facing Lee Jingyu's confession, there was a feeling of exhaustion.

He only had one thought in his mind. If only she wasn't married, then she would be able to enjoy his care.

After some time, she managed to form a sentence, "I'm sorry …"

The two short words rolled out from his throat with a piercing pain.

Chu Qingyan, who had lost faith in love, suddenly had a strange thought that perhaps love was worth waiting for. She should wait for the person who loved her and doted on her to appear, instead of hastily entering a loveless marriage.

Lee Jingyu slowly turned around and stared at Chu Qingyan with his burning gaze.

He laughed, his white teeth shining like pearls. "I'm the one who should apologize, I've scared you. Just pretend I didn't say anything, okay?"

"Un, go to sleep!"

The awkwardness of a man and a woman alone in a room was revealed at this moment.

Chu Qingyan felt uncomfortable all over, and she also felt that she was breathing heavily. She wished that she could be like a small blade of grass with no sense of existence.

She closed her eyes tightly and forced herself to sleep, not thinking about Lee Jingyu's every move. However, her ears were extremely sensitive. She could hear him going to bed, pulling on the blanket, and she could hear him sighing …

Unknowingly, he had fallen asleep as well.

Chu Qingyan opened her eyes and saw Lee Jingyu's face so close to her.

And his lips had already touched hers.

I remember my high school biology teacher saying that love is actually the result of people and things that cause the brain to produce a lot of dopamine.

Chu Qingyan interpreted Lee Jingyu's feelings toward me as overactive dopamine secretion.

Seeing Chu Qingyan open her eyes, Lee Jingyu did not quickly leave her lips, but instead pressed his head down and gave her a heavy peck.

"Sorry, I can't help it!"

There was no trace of panic or awkwardness on his handsome face.

Lee Jingyu looked at Chu Qingyan's sincere and passionate eyes. He said seriously, "Chu Qingyan, you are a good woman. You are worthy of a man's love for his entire life."

As he spoke, a deep look of regret appeared on his face, along with an inexplicable sense of heartache.

In the morning, Lee Jingyu had to leave the hospital to go to work. He said that he would come see her after work at noon, so he called him if he had anything to say.

The soft closing of the door brought Chu Qingyanla back to reality.

On his lips, there was still the scent of his warmth.

When he was alone and helpless, Lee Jingyu helped her and warmed her. His good impression of her wasn't in the slightest.
