Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Yao Zizhou heard Ming Liuyi’s sobbing tone and was immediately confused. He was angry at Ming Liuyi for moving to the next room, but now he was even more afraid of her crying. Her voice made him feel very guilty, as if he had wronged her.
“Don’t cry, I’ll let you massage me.”
Hearing this, Ming Liuyi’s eyes reddened, and she quickly pressed the spiritual spring water on Yao Zizhou’s scars. Yao Zizhou felt Ming Liuyi touch the scars on his legs and suddenly became very nervous. He did not know if Ming Liuyi would dislike him or if she would find his legs disgusting. At this moment, Yao Zizhou’s shame and ugliness could not be hidden from Ming Liuyi.
Ming Liuyi felt miffed as she massaged him. Everything she did was for Yao Zizhou’s sake, but this guy was still unwilling. Would he only feel better if she treated him like Original Ming Liuyi did? Was he a masochist? Ming Liuyi pressed on Yao Zizhou’s leg, and the more she thought about it, the more wronged she felt.
“Is it so difficult to cooperate? No other patient would be as disobedient as you are. And you’re always bullying me and being fierce to me. I just want you to get well soon. Is that so wrong?”
As Ming Liuyi spoke, she felt more and more aggrieved, and her tears could not stop falling. Yao Zizhou felt her tears and immediately wanted to get up and hold her in his arms to comfort her. After all, it seemed like he was in the wrong. But who knew that Ming Liuyi would become even angrier.
“Why are you moving around again? I’m giving you a massage. Be good and stay still.”
Ming Liuyi’s soft voice seemed to have squeezed Yao Zizhou’s heart, and he felt his heart ache as well. He did not dare to move anymore. He did not know whether to lie down or sit up. Fortunately, Ming Liuyi finished the massage quickly. She rolled down Yao Zizhou’s pants legs and lay down on the pillow angrily, sobbing with her back to him.
Yao Zizhou had never encountered such a scene before. For a moment, he was at a loss, and did not know what to do, or how to make Ming Liuyi feel better. After thinking for a long time, Yao Zizhou could not come up with a good idea, so he could only lie down and silently hold Ming Liuyi in his arms, trying to make her not angry.
At first, Ming Liuyi was like a heavy stone, unmoving no matter how hard he tried. Yao Zizhou did not give up and tried a few more times. Finally, Ming Liuyi was reluctantly pulled into his arms. Yao Zizhou did not know what to say, so he could only silently pat her back, hoping to calm her down.
But as he patted her, he heard her steady breathing.
‘…She’s asleep.’
Yao Zizhou smiled and patted her for a while more, then he slowly fell asleep with her in his arms. In his half-awake state, a thought suddenly came to his mind. Being like this, he could move, hug, and comfort Ming Liuyi. ‘It feels so nice…’
The morning sun shone into the room, and Ming Liuyi slowly opened her eyes. Just as she was about to turn around, she remembered that she had snuck into Yao Zizhou’s room and cried for a while. She suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She could take advantage of the fact that Yao Zizhou might not have woken up yet, and run back to her room and pretend that she had not come in last night.
She snuck a peek to her side…
There was no one there. ‘Where’s Yao Zizhou?’ Ming Liuyi was stunned for a moment. It seemed that Yao Zizhou left the bed without Ming Liuyi knowing.
Ming Liuyi quickly got up and changed her clothes, wanting to go out to find Yao Zizhou. Just as she opened the door, she almost bumped into Xiao Fan. Ming Liuyi saw Xiao Fan and immediately asked, “What’s wrong? Where did the master go?”
Xiao Fan saw Ming Liuyi’s anxious look and felt quite envious.
‘The madam really loves the master. Otherwise, why would she ask where the master was when she woke up?’
Xiao Fan really hoped that she could meet someone who loved her just as much in the future. Xiao Fan smacked her own head. ‘How can I be so envious that I almost forgot about her question?’
She quickly said, “Madam, you’re finally awake. Everyone’s waiting for you downstairs.”
Ming Liuyi was stunned. ‘Everyone’s waiting for me? Why are they waiting for me? It’s fine for everyone to go about their duties. Do they have to wait for me to go downstairs and delegate work for them now? Isn’t that the butler’s job? Yao Zizhou’s already downstairs, so why can’t he just make the arrangements?’
Ming Liuyi stared at Xiao Fan with confusion.
“Why?”
