Qi finished speaking and suddenly realized something, her eyes widening slightly as she made eye contact with Jian Lianxi.
She immediately averted her gaze.
Jian Lianxi confirmed that he wasn't dreaming, Qi was indeed by his side taking care of him.
After his mind wandered for a moment, he remembered what happened last night.
"You don't need to worry about last night, I just didn't want you to be in danger,"
Especially because of him. If anything were to happen to her...
He didn't dare to think about the consequences.
Qi handed him a cup of warm water, her eyes not showing the usual distance.
She spoke lightly, "Everyone tells me not to worry, but if it were me lying on this hospital bed, could you do the same?"
Her question left Jian Lianxi speechless.
"I couldn't."
His reply was honest, and his deep eyes closely followed Qi as he asked hoarsely, "Why did you come yesterday?"
He had to ask again since he didn't get an answer.
