Xiao Yi pulled the blanket and Xia Yanran into his arms. He leaned down and kissed her scarlet lips before he continued to stare at her with dark eyes.

Although he was a little bad, when he stared at someone, his eyes would be black and dark. The dark color making her heart flutter.

Xia Yanran looked down, slowly letting go of the blanket that was wrapped tightly around her.

In the evening, Xiao Yi had drank quite a bit with Ku Li. After having her for a few times just now, he was tired as well, so he got under the blanket and hugged her in satisfaction, falling deep asleep.

He had been in the triads since young, thus he had been caught in many life and death situations and didnt dare to sleep too deeply. However, when he was with her, he was able to relax and put his guard down.

He didnt have any family and didnt know who his parents were, having always been alone. It was only with Xia Yanran that he could feel a hint of warmth. He hugged her tightly, his hand on her waist, as if she was his home.

Xia Yanran stared at the man who was hugging her, his long lashes like two small fans on his handsome face. His lips were pursed slightly, before they relaxed in satisfaction.

Xia Yanran felt clammy all over. No matter how sore and tired she was, she couldnt fall asleep.

She didnt know why either, only feeling something weird in her heart.

To be honest, she was afraid as well. She was afraid that he wouldnt be able to give her the quiet and peaceful life she wanted.

Xia Yanran pulled his hand away from her waist quietly, before she got off the bed quietly.

In order to not wake him up, she went to the guest rooms bathroom to take a shower.

Wearing her home clothes, she took her phone and sat in the living room.

It was almost five in the morning.

Shouldnt have Junyuan returned already?

His lifestyle followed a usual routine, apart from having to work the night shift when he was still a doctor, he would be at home. He didnt have the habit of having a nightlife, and in his free time, he would study medical books apart from taking care of her and their younger sister.

Xia Yanran recalled her promise to him that she wouldnt contact Xiao Yi again. However, she had slept with him again tonight. She couldnt help but feel guilty and annoyed at herself.

Kinship and love was always a hard choice to make.

Xia Yanran leaned back on the sofa, closing her eyes for a while.

After the sun rose, Xia Yanran got up to wash up before she went to the kitchen to make breakfast. Since Xiao Yi had drank quite a bit last night despite his weak stomach, Xia Yanran made some light porridge.

As she was busy, a pair of strong arms suddenly appeared on her slender waist.

Following that, a mans hard and firm chest pressed against her back.

Xia Yanran could feel that he wasnt wearing any clothes. She looked back, her lashes fluttering immediately.

He had probably just taken a shower since his hair was still wet. His upper body was naked while he had a yellow towel wrapped around his lower body.

Glancing down, Xia Yanran glared at him. The towel you used is for me to dry my hair.

Whats the problem? Ill give you ten more towels later.

Xia Yanran was speechless, as she turned back to focus on making breakfast.

A warm breath sprayed by her ear, tickling her a little. Xia Yanran shrunk her neck, pushing him with her elbow. Last night was an exception. I wont care about you if you get drugged again. Also, stop touching me. It has only been three days in the one month you gave me.

Xiao Yi grabbed Xia Yanrans arm, pulling her hand and kissed her slender fingers. It felt numb and ticklish to Xia Yanran and she wanted to pull her hand back. However, the man pulled her hard into his arms.

He grabbed her chin and kissed her carefully.

Xia Yanran placed her hands on the counter, leaning back a little as her head kept avoiding his kisses. Xiao Yi, did you hear what I said?

Last night was an exception, dont take it too far.

Go away. Ah, dont tickle my waist, it tickles.

Are you done

The man looked down at her angered eyes. Im not doing it, lets just kiss.

She raised her hand and pressed it against his lips. Youre annoying!

Im going back to Hong Kong today and will only come back in two days. Yanran, let me kiss you again?

His voice was still hoarse from having just woken up. It was extremely sexy, making her heart tickle and flutter.

For some reason, he really liked to kiss her. This was something Yanran noticed a few years back. She wasnt against his kisses either. Every time she was surrounded by his breath, she would feel her head spin and her mind go fuzzy.

He lifted her up. With nowhere to place her legs, she had no choice but to wrap them around his waist as they kissed.

The sound of someone unlocking the door from outside rang, but with their intense kissing session, none of them heard the sound.

Until there was a soft gasp.

The person standing in front of the kitchen stared at what was happening, her mouth agape.

Xia Yanran opened her eyes, glancing at the kitchen entrance from the mans shoulder. When she saw the woman standing there, she immediately got off Xiao Yi.

Sister Jiayi?

Shen Jiayi only glanced inside the kitchen once more before she looked away. She never thought that Yanran would kiss a man wearing only a towel in the kitchen.

Also, from how they looked, they must have been together last night as well.

Shen Jiayi was a little angry, but she didnt show it on her face.

Xia Yanran hurriedly ran out of the kitchen and led Shen Jiayi to Junyuans room. Her pretty face was exceptionally heated. With Shen Jiayi staring at her, Xia Yanran hurriedly found the clothes that Junyuan hadnt worn before and went out.

After she told Xiao Yi to wear them, Xia Yanran pushed him out of the door immediately.

Thats my sister-in-law. Since shes here, my brother will probably be back soon. Leave quickly!

Xiao Yi wanted to say something, but when he saw the panic in Xia Yanrans eyes, he nodded. You shouldnt go to work today and rest properly at home.

Xia Yanran closed the door.

After taking a deep breath, Xia Yanran walked to Junyuans room.

When she went in, Shen Jiayi was tidying some clothes.

Seeing her put some of Junyuans clothes into a luggage, Xia Yanran was slightly surprised. Sister Jiayi, where is my brother going? Why are you packing his clothes?

With a frown appearing on her face, Shen Jiayi thought of Junyuan who was in the hospital.

When she got notified and rushed to the hospital last night, he was covered in blood, his face completely swollen and unrecognizable. She ran along with the bed towards the surgery room, the bedsheets under him turning red.

He wasnt unconscious then and with his remaining strength, he pulled her and said painfully, Please dont tell my younger sisters. I dont want them to worry

And then he was pushed in the surgery room, her hands covered in his blood. She stood outside of the surgery room alone, her heart clenched tightly and miserably.

She had known him for many years. Her family background was strong and reputable. Back when he was still a doctor, she was his patient and she had fallen for him at first glance.

His was handsome, warm and polite. He was the youngest and most patient doctor she had ever seen.

He was very fair and had a small dimple on his right cheek when he smiled. His fingers were very long, his fingernails trimmed neatly.

He had a clean and clear aura, his scent interlaced with a faint desalinizing scent.

The unrecognizable man covered in blood and laying on the bed looked completely different.

Shen Jiayi had never liked someone so much before as she was the one who had pursued him.

Her family did object to them before, but after finding out that his medical skills were exceptional and that he had a bright future, they let her be.

However, he was exceptionally hard to chase

She thought at first that with his warm personality, pursuing him wouldnt be hard. But once she started, she realized how hard it was.

She pursued him for several years.

It was until she accompanied him after he injured his right wrist and could no longer hold a scalpel that he finally accepted her.

After a while, she realized that he was only warm on the outside. Inside, he was actually a very cold and aloof person. He was only nice to his younger sisters and his patients.

It was not that he wasnt nice to her, but in front of her, everything he did was out of rationality.

Her best friend reminded her before that a man would only be exceptionally rational if they didnt love the woman.

They had been together for six months, but he never kissed her before. Even when it came to holding hands, she had to take the initiative to do it first.

She was alright with all of these, after all, he was a person who warmed up slowly.

But the thing that she couldnt tolerate the most was his love for his younger sisters.

He would make breakfast for his younger sisters every day, and would go straight home after work to make dinner for them.

He would bring his sister on a trip once they had time during the weekend. Although he brought her along as well, everyone in a relationship would want to spend time alone with their partners, wouldnt they?

When it rained and poured, the first people he thought of would be his younger sisters.

When they were finally on a date, he would leave her once a younger sister called him.

He told her before that because his younger sisters didnt have parents to dote on them since young, he had to dote on them more as their older brother.

However, wasnt it enough to dote them to this extent already?

After getting injured so badly, the thing he thought about was to not make his younger sisters worry.

Shen Jiayi felt sad and disappointed.

No matter how much she loved him, he would never put her in his heart! The ones that he loved and doted on were ultimately his younger sisters. There was no space in his heart for her.

Xia Yanran stared as Shen Jiayi cried while packing the luggage, her heart tightening as a bad feeling spread within her.

Sister Jiayi, what happened? Xia Yanrans expression changed as she grabbed Shen Jiayis arm. Is it my brother what happened to him?

Shen Jiayi moved her hand to wipe her tears away as she said with trembling lips, Your brother is hospitalized. He got injured badly last night and suffered many broken bones. His organs have internal bleeding, his head was injured, the veins in his arms broke and he bled so much. Although the doctors managed to save him, his body is still very weak. Although hes not in danger, his situation isnt very good either. If his injuries get infected, the consequence would be very serious These are only some of the injuries I was told, I dont know yet if there are any other injuries. After he woke up this morning, he hasnt spoken yet.

Xia Yanrans eyes immediately reddened, her hold on Shen Jiayis arm tightened as her heart jumped to the top of her throat. Her lips trembled. How My brother even sent me a message last night, how would he have gotten injured so badly suddenly

Shen Jiayi waved Xia Yanrans hand away as she continued to pack the luggage, her expression turning cold. Your brother didnt want me to tell you two, but Yanran, your brothers life was in danger last night, yet you were Dont you think that its too much? Your brother treats Xia Tang and you like his priceless treasures, but what about you?
