Setting aside everything else, what made Qiao Yu most uncomfortable was that when he recalled the interactions between his alternate personality and Jian Ning, and the expressions, actions, and words that were thoughtless and embarrassingly infuriating, he surprisingly didn’t find it weird anymore.
Not only that, he even vaguely had a strange feeling that the alternate personality’s personality perfectly complemented Jian Ning’s, and was good at completely overwhelming her.
Qiao Yu leaned on the washbasin, closed his eyes, and carefully examined the face in the mirror. It was still the same face, with no drop in looks, but the eyes were no longer as cold and sharp as before.
When not thinking about Jian Ning, it was fine, but the moment the words “Jian Ning” appeared in his mind, the person in the mirror’s gaze would uncontrollably soften, soften again, and soften once more, becoming unbearably tender.
Qiao Yu irritably grabbed a towel to dry his face, then turned on the faucet, rubbed his hands, and was about to hang it back when his hand suddenly stopped midway.
He had accidentally used Jian Ning’s towel!
The soft, cute pink towel was tightly encircled by his honey-colored hand, as if Jian Ning was being held by him. The towel in his hand instantly became a hot potato. Qiao Yu’s hand trembled, and the towel fell with a plop into the sink. He was so startled that he suddenly turned around and ran up to the third floor with chaotic steps.

Something was wrong.
He was not quite right now.
Although reluctant to admit this embarrassing fact, this change truly frightened Qiao Yu.
In the past twenty-plus years, he had never fallen for anyone, let alone had such intense feelings for anyone. Even two years ago, before divorcing Jian Ning, when they lived under the same roof and saw each other every day, he had never felt like this.
But ever since signing the contract and taking her out of the psychiatric hospital, everything had changed. Not only had he changed, but Jian Ning had changed too.
