Chapter 61: Chapter 061: Heartache for Her Tears

Ning Xixi was sobbing gently, and before long, Ji Yebai realized that a large area of his chest was soaked.

His hands moved even more tenderly, causing the onlookers’ eyes to almost pop out in amazement.

It turned out that the harsh and ruthless man from earlier, had such a gentle and indulgent side too.

"Don’t, don’t look..." Ning Xixi buried her head in his chest, her voice nasal, not wanting Ji Yebai to see her crying.

"Okay."

"Don’t tell anyone."

"...Mm."

"Don’t... laugh at me."

With a light sigh, Ji Yebai did not respond.

But in that moment, he understood that other women’s tears annoyed him.

Only Ning Xixi’s made his heart ache.

...

Ji Family.

After the family doctor’s examination, Ning Xixi wrapped herself in the quilt, curling up into a ball.

Miaomiao hopped and skipped to find her but was stopped by Ji Yebai: "Sister is not feeling well, don’t disturb her."

"Miaomiao is not here to bother Sister Xixi! Miaomiao is here to give Sister Xixi candy!" Miaomiao’s face was innocent, holding up a lollipop bigger than her face.

Ji Yebai found himself at a loss for words, and Miaomiao had already rushed into Ning Xixi’s room.

He went downstairs to get a cup of water, then went upstairs, knocked on the door, and entered.

On the bed, one large and one small, both in pink kitty pajamas, sat cross-legged, licking lollipops in synch.

In an instant, it seemed something struck the softest part of his heart.

Such a scene, so heartwarming. Such times, so peaceful.

Ji Yebai coughed: "Hey, are you still feeling dizzy? Did you take your medicine?"

Ning Xixi’s eyes flickered, she muttered unclearly: "Well... that..."

"Reporting! Sister hasn’t taken it!" Miaomiao cheerfully raised her little paw.

Ji Yebai expressionlessly placed the cup of water on the nightstand.

"Miaomiao, I’m giving you a task, make sure your sister takes her medicine, I’ll check later."

"Roger!"

He ruffled Miaomiao’s hair, Ji Yebai turned and left, closing the door behind him.

"Sister, take the medicine, hurry and take your medicine!" Miaomiao shook Ning Xixi’s arm.

Ning Xixi looked around distractingly: "Miaomiao, your cartoon is about to start!"

Miaomiao was unmoved: "Miaomiao can watch the replay! Sister, you must take your medicine!"

Ow~ being preached to by a four-year-old loli TuT.

"Cough cough... I’ll take it later."

"Sister Xixi, you aren’t scared of taking medicine, are you?" Miaomiao asked disdainfully.

"How could that be! I’m the brave big sister!" She definitely didn’t want to seem timid in front of Miaomiao!

"Then take the medicine quickly!"

Ning Xixi’s eyes darted around, "Ouch, I just remembered, I need to find your brother for something!"

She jumped out of bed, not even wearing shoes, and ran to Ji Yebai’s room next door.

She knocked on the door, no response, noticing the door was unlocked, she pushed it open and complained bitterly, "Ji Yebai! The doctor said I’m fine, I don’t want to take the medicine!"

The room was empty, huh, where is he?

Creak—

The bathroom door opened.

Ning Xixi was instantly dumbstruck.

He wore only a towel around his waist, his hair damp, his eyes dark and intense, yet carrying an air of abstinence.

Simply a disaster!

"I didn’t see anything!" Ning Xixi said righteously, turning around to leave, but her collar was caught by Ji Yebai from behind, and with a pull, she was pinned against the door!

"Entering my door, you still think you can leave?"
