Chapter 189: You Really Hate Me That Much? (2)

Since Chen Xiuqi had spoken, Zhou Peiyun dared not say anything. She quickly agreed and found an excuse to leave.

Su Yaya laid in bed, staring at Chen Xiuqi. He stroked her head and said in a gentle voice, “Sleep. I’ll watch over you until you fall asleep before I go to my hotel.”

“Okay.” Su Yaya was finally satisfied. She tugged at his hand and slowly closed her eyes with a smile.

When Su Yaya woke up the next day, the sky had just risen. No lights were on in the room and it was only illuminated by the weak sunlight of dawn from the window.

In a daze, she saw a figure sitting beside her. He had his back to the light but he had a tall figure. She could only vaguely make out his outline. She still remembered that Chen Xiuqi was there to guard her until she fell asleep last night, so she thought that Chen Xiuqi was still sitting around and did not leave.

“Xiu Qi,” Su Yaya called out to him. She had just woken up so her voice still sounded a little husky. It was very alluring.

The seated figure moved a bit, turning to face her. A handsome face was now completely revealed in front of her, and she finally realized who it was.

Su Yaya showed a startled expression and inched back subconsciously. Then, she found her voice and said, “Why…Why are you here?”

Xu Chaoran saw the shock flas.h.i.+ng past her pretty little face and a deep look emerged on his handsome face. He smiled and spoke in his deep voice, “Does it disappoint you to know that I wasn’t Chen Xiuqi?”

Su Yaya pursed her lips. “That’s not so much a disappointment but more so I was surprised by you. I didn’t know you were here.”

“Did Chen Xiuqi watch over you last night?” Xu Chaoran observed her. “Really, I didn’t think that Chen Xiuqi actually cared so much, even more than…”

He did not finish. Instead, he changed the topic. Staring at Su Yaya, he asked, “Do I really look so similar to Chen Xiuqi? Is that why you mistook me for him?”

Su Yaya felt like that was a very strange question. After looking him up and down, she shook her head. “Nope, not at all.”

“Then why did you mistake me for him?” Xu Chaoran probed.

Su Yaya thought that he was being really weird. She said, “I actually just called out his name after waking up and didn’t see too clearly. If you were to sit facing me then I definitely wouldn’t have mistaken.”

Xu Chaoran stared at her for a while, and she also met his gaze calmly. After a while, Xu Chaoran seemed to finally believe that what she said was true. She really had just made a mistake.

But Su Yaya seemed to hear a sigh coming from him, one that carried a hint of hidden sadness and disappointment.

Su Yaya felt a little strange in her heart. She asked, “Why are you here? What did you come all the way here for?”

“I came to see you!” Xu Chaoran announced matter-of-factly.

Su Yaya then said, “I don’t need you to come see me, I’m perfectly fine. Did you let those reporters outside see you when you came in?”

“Are you scared of being photographed by those reporters? Or scared of letting Chen Xiuqi know?” Xu Chaoran asked angrily.

Su Yaya was stunned. In fact, she was worried about both of that, but she didn’t want to tell him the truth. So, she asked, “Am I that close with you? If the reporters were to catch you at the hospital they would end up writing a big mess, and I would be the unlucky one!”

Xu Chaoran sneered. “You make it sound like I wouldn’t be unlucky! And it’s not like this is the first time!”

This was not only a complaint about this matter, but also one of the precedent.
