Chapter 75: Chapter 075 The Moment Heart Fluttered 3

In his hand, he carried two bags.

One was wafting with tendrils of steam, specially bought for Ning Xixi’s consumption.

The other was filled with medicine boxes, which he bought personally from the hospital.

His worry, his anxiety, seemed to lose all meaning at this moment.

On the bed, Ning Xixi blinked her eyes in confusion: "How would you like me to thank you?"

Her head hurt so much, it was unbearable, preventing her from thinking about anything else.

Gong Xiu lifted his hand to her chin, caressing it slowly, his voice melodic: "How about a kiss from you?"

Boom——

It was like fireworks burst in her mind, noisy and chaotic.

Being asked for a kiss by the man she had secretly loved for three years should have been a surprise, yet Ning Xixi was only frightened.

"I..."

"Shh!" Gong Xiu’s slender finger covered her cherry lips, his gaze enchanting: "If you refuse me, I will be heartbroken."

"But, I..."

Watching her panicked expression, a shadow fell in Gong Xiu’s eyes.

He started to wonder if this girl really liked him.

Those clear and pure eyes, like a small path lost in the forest, clueless and naive, irresistibly evoking one’s protective instincts.

His heartbeat seemed out of rhythm, a strange emotion was brewing.

Her lips, light cherry in color, Gong Xiu thought, if they were ravaged to red, they would surely look as beautiful as rose petals in bloom.

He bent down, slowly approaching Ning Xixi’s lips...

"Don’t!" Only a few centimeters apart, Ning Xixi abruptly pushed him away.

In Gong Xiu’s peach blossom-like eyes, disappointment was unavoidably revealed.

Playing hard to get?

Playing coy?

It seemed so, yet it also did not seem so.

He had wanted to continue, but then there came a scornful laugh from behind: "It seems I’ve interrupted you two."

Ning Xixi turned her head, surprised to see Ji Yebai standing at the door, her small mouth agape: "Ji Yebai, how come you’re here?" Was he here to mock her?

Ji Yebai’s face suddenly darkened like a stormy sky, gloomy to the extreme.

Did she not want him to come?

Casually throwing down the bags, he turned and strode away!

His figure was still tall, yet so solitary.

"Hey, why are the food and medicine thrown on the ground?" Cheng Youran, who had just returned from the restroom, saw the mess on the ground and couldn’t help but mumble.

She picked up the bags from the floor, and upon seeing Ning Xixi’s eyes open, showed surprise: "Xixi, you’re awake! Do you feel any discomfort?"

Ning Xixi responded with a smile: "I’m fine."

"You’re not fine at all!" Cheng Youran was filled with distress, "The doctor said you have low blood pressure, low blood sugar, you’re weak, and you have a stomach condition... You’re only 16 years old, how did you let your health get so bad!"

Ning Xixi lowered her eyelids, obviously not wanting to dwell on the topic: "Alright, fainting in front of so many people was so embarrassing..."

Mentioning this, Cheng Youran became excited: "Not at all! Everyone was so envious of you! Ji Yebai carried you in his arms to the infirmary! When the school nurse mentioned a certain brand of prescription medicine was better, he immediately drove to the city hospital to buy it for you! Ah... this bag seems to have the medicine the school nurse mentioned..."

Was it Ji Yebai who had saved her?

Ning Xixi’s face was full of disbelief, turning to look at Gong Xiu.

Gong Xiu raised an eyebrow, casually saying: "I never claimed I was the one who saved you."

Ning Xixi sat up, throwing off the blankets, and Cheng Youran exclaimed: "Xixi, what are you doing!"

"I’m going to find Ji Yebai!"
