Chapter 19 Open the Door, I Want to Go Home

Xia Yinian awoke to find herself lying in an unfamiliar bed, in a strange room.

Her throat was very dry... She opened her mouth, but all sounds seemed to be stuck in her throat, unable to squeeze out even a single word.

A cup of warm water was handed to her, and Xia Yinian, without thinking, hurriedly took it.

Weak and lacking strength, she almost dropped the cup onto the bed, but the person quickly took it back and brought the rim of the cup to her lips.

Xia Yinian didn't have the energy to think too much and, lowering her head, drank the entire cup of water at the servant's assistance.

Only when her throat felt more comfortable did she look up at the person who had just helped her drink.

It would have been better to not look at all; as soon as she did, she felt instantly terrible.

"Don't come over!" She grabbed the blanket, trying desperately to cover her body.

The man standing at the bedside was tall and handsome, looking down at her with lowered eyelids.
