WHEN the two brothers reached Yu Jiao’s room, they saw the Yu Jiao’s mother opening the door and walking out. Luo Yan quickly noticed the other’s reddish and swelling eyes. She must have cried a lot.
Ji Xiuying stopped when she saw them. She smiled gently at Luo Yan. "Xiao Yan is here." And then she glanced at the tall man standing beside the teenager. "This is?"
"Auntie, this is my older brother," Luo Yan answered with a smile, introducing his older brother.
"Hello, Auntie, my name is Luo Ren," Luo Ren said bowing respectfully towards Yu Jiao’s mother. Although his opinion about this woman hadn’t yet improved, that didn’t mean that he wouldn’t give her the respect that an elder should have.
"Hello, hello," Ji Xiuying greeted back.
She observed the young man. If Luo Yan didn’t say that the other was his brother, she might not think that they were related. The two just didn’t look similar at all. One was soft and gentle while the other had this inherent coldness and aloofness that didn’t allow others to be near.
"He came to take me back home. Can we go and say goodbye to Jiao Jiao before we leave?" Luo Yan asked.
"Of course. It just so happens that I will go and buy lunch for Jiao Jiao. You and your brother can accompany her while I’m away," Ji Xiuying answered without hesitation.
Although these two were obviously young masters from a rich family, she couldn’t help but feel good will towards them. Probably because of her initial good impression of Luo Yan. And based on her daughter’s reaction when she mentioned Luo Yan earlier, she could see that Yu Jiao trusted this boy very much. That’s why she also was also confident to leave her daughter with them.
Ji Xiuying left and the two entered Yu Jiao’s hospital room.
Yu Jiao thought that her mother forgot something that’s why she came back but it was not her who walked in. When she saw Luo Yan, a smile was about to cross her lips, but when she saw the person walking behind him, her smile just froze.
What was Luo Ren doing here?
Before she could think more clearly, the other had already rushed to the side of her bed. He seemed like he wanted to stretch his hand and hold her or something but he quickly stopped. Yu Jiao felt her cheeks heating up because of that sudden thought. Why would she even think that? How embarrassing!
She looked down and tried to calm herself. She must be imagining things. This was not the first time her imagination got the better of her. But still, it was a bit humiliating even if she was the only one who knew about it.
Unbeknownst to her, Luo Ren indeed wanted to hug her. But he stopped himself in time. He didn’t want Yu Jiao to think of her as a pervert. Suddenly hugging her like that would certainly make him look like one.
"Jiao Jiao, are you already feeling better? Or does it still hurt?" he just asked instead.
He looked at the bandage on her head and the anger he had felt earlier came back with a vengeance. He clenched his fist, his nails almost digging into his palm. The pain he felt from that helped himself to calm down and not show a terrifying expression in front of Yu Jiao.
But seeing her like this, he was even more determined to teach that Mo girl a lesson she would never forget. Did she really think she could put Yu Jiao in such a dangerous situation and get away with it? Hah!
That girl should be glad that Yu Jiao only got an external wound from this. If her injury was much more serious than this, he would definitely not hesitate to destroy the whole Mo family.
"I-I’m okay. It doesn’t really hurt that much," Yu Jiao said, fiddling with the bed sheet covering her lap. "W-why is Brother Ren here?"
She almost bit her lower lip when she heard herself stuttering. Why did this old habit of hers have to suddenly appear at this moment? She sounded all weak and timid. To make up for that, she bravely raised her head to meet the other’s gaze.
But she felt like it was self-defeating. Because the moment their gazes met, she, for some reason, felt shy all over again. But this time, she refused to look down again. Although, she quickly regretted that. Because gazing at the other’s deep black eyes was like being pulled into an endless whirlpool. She didn’t even know how to get out of it.
She shook her head. Why was she being so sensitive today? Was it because of the fall? Maybe her brain sustained some damage she didn’t know about.
Luo Ren was still worried. Especially since Yu Jiao’s face suddenly became all red. "Are you sure?" This time, he didn’t stop himself and stretched out his hand to check the other’s temperature. The back of his hand was on her cheek. He didn’t have time to admire her soft cheeks because all he could feel was her high temperature. "I think you have a fever."
"N-no- I—"
She obviously didn’t have a fever. But how could Yu Jiao say that the reason her cheeks felt hot was because the other touched it? That would only make her look like a fool. contemporary romance
Luo Yan, who was being fed with unnecessary dog food for quite a while now, really couldn’t take it any longer. He walked to his brother and removed his hand from Yu Jiao’s cheek before the girl started to combust spontaneously.
Seriously, Luo Ren was such a sharp guy. If he just stopped and looked properly, he would see that Yu Jiao was simply being shy. It seemed just like any other guy in love, he was also suffering from the so-called ’love sign blindness’. Being afflicted by this would make one oblivious and dense. Even though the answer was right in front of them, they couldn’t seem to see it. Just like what’s happening to Luo Ren right now.
Good thing Luo Yan didn’t suffer the same affliction. Or else, the development of his relationship with Shen Ji Yun might be much slower than it was now.
Just imagining that was already giving him stress.
