Chapter 203: Since You Couldn’t Return for Your Birthday, I Should at Least Come Visit

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Ji Nuan startled awake from a dream.

When she opened her eyes to a room full of darkness, she frantically reached out.

Although it was not an environment she was accustomed to, she was not entirely unfamiliar with it. The instant her hand came into contact with the bedside lamp, it lit up. At the same time, the curtains slowly shifted open, allowing the sunlight from outside to enter. The dark room was instantly filled with warm light. After taking in a clear look of the room, she finally released her breath.

She was in that condo outside T University.

She was not in the underground room of that bar, nor was she in that isolated mountain village from her previous lifetime.

She raised a hand to press against her head, recalling everything that had happened yesterday. She was initially unsure if it had been a dream, but the instant her hand came into contact with the wound, the scenes in the underground bar flashed through her mind. Her gaze had turned flustered when the bedroom door was suddenly opened. She subconsciously raised her head.

Mo Jingshen’s tall silhouette stepped into the warm light of the bedroom. Ji Nuan’s tightened emotions instantly loosened. She released the sheets she was originally gripping tightly. “I thought you were still in Hai City…”

“Since you couldn’t return for your birthday, I should at least come to visit.” The man’s gaze was clear. As though everything she had seen in the underground bar was already in the past, he did not continue upsetting her emotions.

When the man sat down on the bed by her side, Ji Nuan instinctively reached up to embrace his neck. She burrowed her head against his shoulder and breathed in the clean scent on his body. She closed her eyes and softly whispered, “Thank you.”

For Mo Jingshen, those two words were perhaps meaningless or even unnecessary.

However, for Ji Nuan, these two words were extremely important.

She was thanking him for bringing her back from the hands of those fierce people who preyed on the weak and thanking him for not allowing the frightening and helpless past replay once more.

Mo Jingshen gently patted her head. “What silly words are you saying? Does your head hurt?”

Ji Nuan raised her hand to touch her head. However, her hand was immediately gripped by his. “Although it’s only a surface wound, the area is not small. Don’t touch it.”

Ji Nuan raised her eyes and saw that Mo Jingshen’s arm was still wrapped around her. She could see that he had barely slept last night and had been taking care of her the whole time.

Thankfully, she had escaped from a calamity last night and was not dirtied by other people; otherwise, she would not know how to face this man.

However, when she recalled the bespectacled man’s touch on her body, she could not help but feel thoroughly discomforted.

“When I came back from the hospital last night, did I not shower?” All she could remember was falling asleep after returning and the chain of nightmares she had. Although she did not have much impression, she knew that she must have been a mess. Otherwise, Mo Jingshen would not have stayed awake for the entire night to care for her.

“After you fell asleep, I wiped your body clean of the bloodstains.” As he spoke, Mo Jingshen helped her to bundle her hair up.

The man was not too familiar with tying a woman’s hair. No matter how capable he was, there were still times when he was unsure.
