CHAPTER 55

Actually Pretending To be Asleep To Deceive Me!

When Jing Yue woke up the next morning, she straight away felt very uncomfortable around her stomach, it was pressed by something. She wanted to open her eyes yet they stubbornly remained closed. After confusedly trying to open her eyes for a long time, she was eventually able to open her eyes, hung her head down and finally saw the thing that pressed her stomach.

An arm.

Jing Yue went blank for a moment before s.h.i.+fting her gaze to the side of that arm; what had entered her sight was actually Xiao Chen’s face which could make anyone infatuated in a flas.h.!.+

‘Look at the face! It looks like it completely has no trace of being photoshopped! That chin! That nose bridge! Those eyelashes! That mouth! They are simply on another realm of handsome ah!’

There was a little stir in Jing Yue’s heart as she stared at the still asleep Xiao Chen. Very cautiously, she lifted her hand and moved it closer towards Xiao Chen’s face little by little. She really wanted to know whether this skin of his was real or fake; ‘Does ancient era have thing like plastic surgery ah?’

Jing Yue got her wish when she finally touched Xiao Chen’s face. After she poked it lightly and found that Xiao Chen still didn’t move, she suddenly became more audacious.

She had wanted to continue poking his face when she suddenly heard several cold words coming from above her head: “Have you touched enough yet?”

“Ah!” Jing Yue screamed and frantically crawled towards the inner side of the bed. She cupped her cheeks in fright and stared at Xiao Chen who had opened his ice-cold eyes and was watching herself.

“You…… When did you wake up?” Jing Yue’s little heart was beating quickly, her face felt hot in a flash.

“Before you woke up.” Xiao Chen propped his body up and sat; a shallow smile flashed through his eyes as he narrowed his eyes to stare at Jing Yue whose eyes were dodging his.

Jing Yue was a bit dumbfounded; she then glared accusingly at Xiao Chen and said: “You are really good ah! You were actually pretending to be asleep to deceive me!”

“If I didn’t do it, how can I see Huang Fei’s true nature?” Xiao Chen leaned his body towards Jing Yue; his tyrannical gaze made her face went hot. Squeaking in panic, she hastily ran away from the bed to avoid Xiao Chen coming close to her.

Xiao Chen turned his head around to stare at Jing Yue who had run in extreme anxiety to distance herself from him, the corners of his mouth rose faintly. Xiao Chen slowly closed his eyes before he also stood up, taking the robe beside him and putting it on. Meanwhile, Jing Yue carelessly covered her inner robe and started to shout loudly, calling Yin Qiao to come and help her.

Jing Yue hadn’t even finished wearing her clothes properly when she saw Xiao Chen took a step out of the room. Her heart suddenly became relaxed; fortunately, they didn’t have to continue speaking.

‘Really shamed people to death.’

“By the way…” Just as Jing Yue was lost in her thought, Xiao Chen abruptly stopped his footsteps; he turned around to stare at Jing Yue and said: “Yesterday, why were you sent back by Fang ZiCheng again?”

“You still have the nerve to ask!” Jing Yue suddenly jumped after hearing Xiao Chen’s question; she furiously glared at Xiao Chen and said: “Didn’t you say that there would be a carriage to pick me up!? Why didn’t I see anything when I came out yesterday!? Harmed me so I couldn’t find my way back! Also harmed me to be chased by a killer!”

Xiao Chen’s expression suddenly went cold; that tree feet deep frozen gaze made Jing Yue’s body s.h.i.+vered.

“I know.” Xiao Chen indifferently threw this two words out, raised his leg and left, leaving a dumbfounded Jing Yue behind.
