Chapter 81 - 75: Am I Really That Stupid?
CHAPTER 81: CHAPTER 75: AM I REALLY THAT STUPID?
Bai Yiran’s voice sounded softly, and Bai Qiantong, who had already reached the door, paused for a moment before finally leaving the room.
After Bai Qiantong left, Bai Yiran left the hospital alone. Bai Qiantong had driven her Volvo when they came to the hospital, and when Bai Qiantong left, she returned the car keys to Bai Yiran. Bai Yiran didn’t know how she managed to drive home.
After showering and changing clothes, Bai Yiran sat alone on the bed in the bedroom, the large house containing only her. She desperately wanted someone to confide in, someone to rely on...
Leng Yichen...
It was only then that Bai Yiran realized that she had unconsciously started to rely on Leng Yichen...
"Sis!"
Leng Yichen’s voice!
Bai Yiran raised her head in confusion, but she still saw only the empty room.
It turned out to be her imagination...
"Bai Yiran!"
It wasn’t until the bedroom door was forcefully pushed open by Leng Yichen, until Bai Yiran felt the embrace carrying cold air yet unusually warm.
Only then did Bai Yiran truly feel it was Leng Yichen!
He really came back!
"Leng Yichen..."
Leng Yichen hugged Bai Yiran, smelling her hair, feeling that only this scent could calm his heart, "Where did you go? Why didn’t you answer my calls?"
He had set off at dawn the previous day, taken a ten-hour flight to the destination, but because he couldn’t get in touch with Bai Yiran, he canceled an important meeting and a contract worth billions, and took another ten-hour flight back in the early morning today!
Leng Yichen is a rational person, but when he couldn’t reach Bai Yiran, all his rationality vanished!
But, when he saw Bai Yiran safely appear before him, all previous anxiety and panic had transformed into anger!
The more afraid Leng Yichen had been before, the angrier he was now!
He tightly held her, wanting to return all the fear and worry he had endured to Bai Yiran.
Leng Yichen now wished he could melt Bai Yiran into himself, "Why didn’t you pick up? Do you know how worried I was?"
The man held Bai Yiran forcefully, but inadvertently touched the freshly stitched wound on her arm.
Hiss!
The tearing pain of the wound made Bai Yiran gasp.
"What’s wrong with you?" Only then did Leng Yichen notice Bai Yiran’s anomaly, lifting her sleeve to reveal the bandaged arm. "How did you get hurt?"
Leng Yichen’s jaw was tense, eyes filled with blame and heartache.
For a moment, Bai Yiran looked up at Leng Yichen; when she had wished for him to appear, he truly did!
Instantly, Bai Yiran felt as if her heart was filled to bursting, her eyes moist as she looked at Leng Yichen. His face was full of exhaustion; stubble appeared in just a day, and his bloodshot eyes indicated he hadn’t rested well.
Yes, nearly twenty-four hours on the road, how could he have rested well?
Bai Yiran cupped Leng Yichen’s face, pressed her face gently against his stubbled chin, and gently rubbed, "I’m sorry for making you worry..."
Leng Yichen surrendered; all his anger finally dissipated under Bai Yiran’s tenderness, leaving behind only deep concern.
"How did you get hurt?" Leng Yichen held up Bai Yiran’s arm.
Bai Yiran suppressed the grievance and hatred towards Gu Manli in her heart, trying hard to smile normally, her eyes like an innocent fawn, "I was clumsy and fell down the stairs... my arm got cut, don’t you think I’m silly... when you called, I was probably getting stitches, so I didn’t answer..."
