Downstairs in the hospital.
On the way from Bo Cixue’s apartment, You Lan did not speak, but her eyes never left Bo Cixue.
Bo Cixue parked the car and looked at You Lan, who was staring at her without blinking. “Did you fall for me?”
You Lan regained her senses and glared at Bo Cixue angrily. “Who likes you? I have a normal sexual orientation.”
Bo Cixue smiled and unbuckled her seatbelt. “We’re here. Get off.”
You Lan got out of the car, not planning to go to the hospital.
She walked in front of Bo Cixue and said bitterly, “I’ve never seen a love rival like you.”
Until now, You Lan still could not tell if Bo Cixue liked Ye Jie or not.
“Brother Crown Prince is so outstanding. So many women want to get his favor, but you still gave him to me!”
Bo Cixue pursed her lips slightly. “I won’t do it again.”
“You’re lucky. If I met the Crown Prince’s eyes then, you wouldn’t have anything to do with me.” You Lan looked at the beautiful Bo Cixue and pouted. “If you don’t cherish it, you won’t have another chance in the future.”
Bo Cixue smirked. “Yes, I understand.”
Seeing Bo Cixue’s good attitude, You Lan scratched her head and said unnaturally, “To be honest, although I spent a few hours with him at the horse ranch that day, nothing happened.”
“I didn’t even touch his hair. I’m still a beauty of the Southern Region, but he was indifferent.”
Bo Cixue patted You Lan’s arm lightly. “It’s not that you’re not beautiful, but you haven’t met the right person.”
You Lan waved her hand. “Forget it. Go up quickly. I don’t want to see the two of you showing off your affection. I’m going back.”
“Aren’t you staying for a few more days?”
“No, I ran out secretly this time.”
After Bo Cixue watched You Lan leave, she walked toward the inpatient department.
When she arrived at Ye Jie’s ward, she took a deep breath and knocked on the door.
No one answered from inside. Bo Cixue pushed open the door and walked in quietly.
Ye Jie had fallen asleep.
Unlike the coldness and indifference he had when he woke up, he had an unguarded aura when he was asleep.
Bo Cixue walked to the bed and stared at him quietly for a while.
To be honest, she had not looked at him so carefully for a long time.
His facial features were thin and well-defined, making him look even more handsome and charming.
After about half an hour, he seemed to be having a nightmare.
Beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
“Water…”
Bo Cixue saw his pale lips moving and approached him. Hearing him say water, she hurriedly got up to pour a glass of water and used a cotton swab to touch his dry lips.
‘A few minutes later, his eyes moved.
Her eyelashes that were even thicker and longer than a woman’s slowly lifted up.
Bo Cixue met his deep black eyes.
His eyes gradually focused on Bo Cixue’s beautiful face.
Perhaps not expecting to see her here at this time, he stared at her for a while and said nothing.
Bo Cixue put down the cup and stared at him with her bright doe eyes. Even when she put down the cup, her gaze landed on him.
They stared at each other for nearly a minute before he broke the silence with a hoarse voice. “Why are you here?”
Bo Cixue could not stand meeting his eyes for such a long time. She lowered her long and thick eyelashes and said softly, “I looked for Kevin some time ago. I might have been hypnotized by Cheng Yan.”
“Lonly realized that something was wrong when I pushed you to Princess You Lan! If it was me in the past, I wouldn’t have done such a thing even if I didn’t love you anymore!”
Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue’s dark eyes and his eyes darkened. He probably did not expect her to confess to him and his hands wrapped in gauze under the blanket tightened slightly.
‘As smart as he was, he could not guess what she was trying to say.
“Cixue, are you trying to say that you don’t have any feelings for me now?”
Bo Cixue saw the darkness in his eyes and asked instead of answering, “What about you? Are you tired of being so cold to me after waking up?”
He pursed his lips tightly and did not answer.
Bo Cixue brushed away the long hair by her cheek and his dark eyes landed on her exquisite makeup. Only then did he realize that not only had she put on makeup, but she had also changed into a dress suitable for dates.
“Are you… going to see someone later?” He asked hoarsely, his voice slightly tense.
Bo Cixue smiled brightly. “I’m going to see Caesar.”
Ye Jie’s dark pupils constricted. “He’s here?”
If he remembered correctly, Caesar was busy with his family matters and had no time to chase girls. Why was he here again?
Next time, should he give an order to forbid Caesar from entering the country?
He had never been a person who used his work for personal gain, but this time, he did not mind making an exception.
“Do you care a lot about me meeting Caesar?”
Ye Jie regained his senses and realized that he should not interfere in her private matters and make her feel disgusted.
His handsome jawline was slightly tensed. “No.”
Bo Cixue hummed softly. “In that case, I’ll go and see Caesar later. He confessed to me that night. Now that I think about it, I shouldn’t have rejected him.”
Bo Cixue stood up, planning to leave.
But she was about to take a step when her slender wrist was grabbed by someone.
Bo Cixue saw that her wrist was held by the man’s bandaged hand. She gently pulled his hand away and stopped moving. Turning back, she met his deep dark eyes and could not help but laugh.
Although he did not say anything, she could tell from his gaze and expression that he did not want her to see Caesar.
But he could not stop her too strongly, for fear of arousing her disgust.
Ye Jie looked at Bo Cixue and thought of her attitude toward him today. Combined with her current expression, he seemed to understand something.
“Caesar didn’t come.”
Bo Cixue did not feel embarrassed even though he had exposed her lie. She smiled. “Yes, he didn’t come.”
“Cixue, are you… not angry at me anymore?” He asked carefully.
Bo Cixue hummed.
He wanted to pull her hand again.
Bo Cixue did not let him pull her. She leaned down and gently held his shoulders.
Her long hair that was spread over her shoulders fell and his nose was gently touched and a faint fragrance filled his nose.
His body froze immediately.
Her bandaged hands hung in the air, unable to regain her senses for a while.
After some time, he called her hoarsely, “Cixue…”
He had just called her name when she lowered her head and kissed him.
In the past, he was the one who kissed her first. Now that he was lying on the bed, she had become the domineering one.
His dark eyes were filled with disbelief..
