Chapter 243 Stop Pretending

Jiang Lingxi always knew that Shen Yunqing was remarkably persistent in whatever he did.

She really admired that quality.

But if this persistence meant he would keep holding her wrist, then she'd rather Shen Yunqing not be so determined.

An hour later, Jiang Lingxi fished out her vibrating phone from under the pillow, turned off the alarm, and got up. She glanced at her wrist, still tightly held, and tried to pull it free, but to no avail.

The person on the bed remained in the same position, sleeping soundly, with even the folds in the blanket unchanged. Jiang Lingxi used her other free hand to check Shen Yunqing's forehead, then breathed a sigh of relief.

The fever hadn't returned, so the risk was minimal.

She lay back down, becoming used to having her wrist held for over an hour, and soon drifted back into a slumber.

Xu Ling'an, as usual, got up and went to sit with Jiang Lingxi for a bit before heading to the film set together.
