Chapter 743 - Fair and square.

The nurse's gossip paused in the mid of the air as they felt their spines stiffening from someone's warning glares coming from behind. 

Sensing something odd around, they instinctively turned to look back from where they could feel the dangerous energy coming. And their instincts weren't wrong. 

When they turned to look, they came to realize that the woman who was sleeping adorably in the man's embrace was awake now. And was giving them a glare that meant - say that again if you want to die.

They were at once in loss, not understanding where their words went wrong. 

"This…do you think we said something wrong? Aren't we just talking among ourselves?"

"Yep, we were. But I think our words and talks were improper, that's why Ms. Feng looks infuriated at the moment. Are we doomed? I have heard this young lady is known for her unique tantrums."

"I knew this would be coming. I have told you not to talk recklessly. How could we connect Feng princess name with just a Director of the company?"

They whispered among themselves, guessing their potential wrongs. But just after the last comment, the air seemed to feel more suffocating. So one of the nurses quickly shushed the other two to save their life. 

"Shush, don't speak more. We still don't know things and it's inappropriate to talk like that on our mere wild guesses." 

And for once the air around eased. The one who commented last took a sigh of relief as she somewhat understood what they were doing wrong. But before the things could flare up again, she quickly added in a comparatively lower voice so that it didn't disturb the man who was still peacefully sleeping on the bed. 

"Ms. Feng, sorry for the disturbance. We will come later." One said, bowing her head slightly and the other two followed the suit, before running off the roof. 

Feng Yi Lan didn't say anything but her eyes followed each of them leaving until the end. When the floor once again resumed the tranquillity from before, her eyes went to gaze out of the window before moving slowly to look at the arms wrapped around her stomach that kept her stick to the man, sleeping behind her, cuddling in his embrace.

An unreadable emotion reached her eyes that were hard to comprehend. There was a smile over her lips but it was hard to comprehend what was that smile for.

Slowly and carefully, she tried to shift her in order to turn around to look at the man. Her eyes glittered when his b.a.r.e beautiful face came to her vision. She felt pausing around while her hand moved up to trace his features. 

"They were talking if you were capable of having me beside you but here I doubt if I am capable to stand by your side. Especially after all that, my mother did to you in the past. How can I not bear the consequences of her wrongdoings? Even if I die loving you, I could never dare to confess as I did before."

She said with some longing expression in her eyes and was about to pull her hand away when suddenly she froze in her movements. Her pupils dilated when she realized the full consciousness of the man at the front. 

"You are awake?" She asked, somewhat stunned. Her earlier words were not meant to be spoken aloud. Just because she saw him peacefully in deep sleep did she dare to confess it out on his face. 

"Let's reverse the sequence then?" Qi Shuai silently said. His eyes staring deeply at the girl in front of him. 

It was just at that moment he didn't care about them, rather all his focus was to enjoy his time embracing the girl in between his arms. He didn't remember how they ended up in this position but at the moment, it felt really blissful. 

"Huh?" Feng Yi Lan didn't understand what he meant by those words. His intentions came quick and she didn't realize comprehending its meaning.

Qi Shuai looked at her confused face and warmed spread over his expression as he reached out her face before gently fl.i.c.k.i.n.g away the wild strand of hair away. 

"I said let's reverse the sequence. If you could not confess your feelings like the last time, accept me doing so this time. It will be fair and square then".

He said looking at her and could not find her more confused than this. He was amused to know that even such simple words of his were so hard for her understanding and easy to make her confused. 

"Is there a problem?" He probed to ask when didn't see her perplexion dissipating. His expression having the shine of the sun, like all his worries from the past has got unburdened in one night. 

Seriousness took over Feng Yi Lan's expression and she was about to begin her words. But as if he has sensed her coming words from before, Qi Shuai didn't let her start.

Before even she could start, his lips placed over hers to pause all her words inside. The morning was too positive for him and at this moment he didn't want any negativity in her thoughts or hopes. 

It just a moment and he wanted to live it to the fullest without any regrets and since he has already heard her confess her feelings to his sleepy self and had witnessed all her possessiveness last night, he very well knew what next he should do to get her all for himself. 

"LanLan, after today I won't be hearing you anymore, not until I make you accept our love and relationship once again And believe me, this will be at a pace where you, yourself, will not be able to realize."

He said and before waiting to hear her say anything next in response, he once again sealed her lips.
