She was so stupid! Someone was already taken, and she hadn’t realized he was so loyal, remaining pure for her. Luo Yaling sighed internally.
“Oh! How could I forget Miss Zhuo Ning? You’re staying faithful for her. I understand,” Luo Yaling said, patting Shen Yixuan on the shoulder.
At this moment, she had completely forgotten her own pain.
“No,” Shen Yixuan shook off her hand.
Luo Yaling’s hand froze awkwardly. Seeing his reaction, she could only retract it.
“What do you mean, no?” Luo Yaling was confused.
“Not the kind of relationship you’re thinking of.” He didn’t want to be misunderstood, especially by her.
“Don’t tell me… you’re not lovers?” Her intuition suggested that Zhuo Ning and he weren’t that simple.
“No,” Shen Yixuan replied.
“Then what is your relationship?” Not lovers? Why did he look at her that way? Why was she so curious about their relationship? No, no. She was just curious about how he treated Zhuo Ning.
“Are you annoying or what? Jumping around. Don’t you feel pain?” He wondered what her body was made of, injured yet so energetic.
Shen Yixuan looked at Luo Yaling suspiciously.
“Ah!!! Ow… So painful!” As soon as he mentioned it, her whole body hurt.
“Really missing a few brain cells,” Shen Yixuan muttered, then carried Luo Yaling into the bathroom.
“You, you, you… What are you doing?” Luo Yaling exclaimed, confirming she hadn’t broken anything.
“Are you sure you can wash yourself?” Shen Yixuan asked.
“I have hands and feet! I can wash myself. Get out! I don’t need your fake kindness!” Luo Yaling shouted in embarrassed anger.
“Fine. I’ll go out.” Shen Yixuan walked out.
What was done was done—no amount of explanation would change that.
Chapter Thirty-Nine: Falling Asleep
After Shen Yixuan left, Luo Yaling collapsed on the floor. It was all her own stubbornness. She had used up all her energy and now felt completely limp, her whole body ached. Ah! Serves her right. But, she was so sleepy now! Really wanted to sleep, even if just for a moment. Slowly, she closed her eyes and fell asleep on the floor.
After a while, Shen Yixuan walked to the bathroom door. The bathroom was eerily quiet, making him uneasy.
