Chapter 302: The Day That Infuriated Fu Shilv

Sheng Youxia felt awkward.

Xu Lin seemed to have feelings for her. As an adult woman, she couldn't pretend she didn't notice. Should she keep pretending to be asleep right now?

The scenes in her dream were so vivid—clearly the anesthesia shot had left her with some psychological trauma.

The man hovering above didn't seem to know whether she'd woken up or not. His fingers touched her face, then shifted to hold it with both hands.

His slender fingers brushed across Sheng Youxia's forehead. Finding it damp with sweat, he gently wiped it away.

She could faintly smell a trace of tobacco on Xu Lin.

If she remembered correctly, he'd never smoked before.

His fingers slid down her face, stopping near the corner of her mouth.

Sheng Youxia couldn't keep pretending anymore. "Mr. Xu—"

His hand withdrew instantly, and without uttering a word, the man sprang up from the bed and quickly walked out.

"Where are you going?" Sheng Youxia asked, puzzled.
