Chapter 460 You Are Bound To Me (2)

Xiao Rufeng wasn't sure when she fell asleep, but the second she regained her consciousness, she felt that her whole body was covered with sweat, making her wish she could take a long shower as soon as possible. Thankfully, this time, she regained her ability to move, but it was obvious that she was still weak and feeling exhausted.

She turned her attention to the person who was dozing on the armchair near the glass window and felt guilty for having Yan Xiuchen to look after her, trying to keep her awake by conversing with her.

The digital clock on the nightstand said it was already four in the morning, and Xiao Rufeng didn't have the heart to wake Yan Xiuchen from his slumber.Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)

'He might have fallen asleep before I did.' Xiao Rufeng thought.

She silently slipped out of the bed and walked to the ensuite bathroom to relieve herself and wash the sweat and dirt off her body. She then opened the wardrobe and was glad to find a pair of white robes inside.

When she returned to the bedroom, Yan Xiuchen remained asleep. The air conditioner was a little cold tonight, so she adjusted the temperature and decided to cover him with the blanket he provided earlier.

However, as soon as she was about to place it on his lap, Xiao Rufeng was given a full view of his face. The moonlight revealed the rest of his face to her sight.

Yan Xiuchen turned his head slightly and saw that the woman on bed was already up and was looking at him with curiosity. Realization dawned upon him and he snapped his head to the other side and shielded his scarred face with his right hand.

"You've seen my face." He said in an accusatory tone, as if Xiao Rufeng had committed a grave mistake for sneaking up on him to look at his face. He felt fully exposed, now that Xiao Rufeng had seen his scars. He was hoping that they would part ways after today, with her having a good impression on him and not to be repulsed by his grotesque appearance.

Xiao Rufeng cocked her head one one side and blinked.

"Am I not supposed to see you clearly?" She retorted.

She didn't sound repulsed nor bothered by what she had seen, which startled Yan Xiuchen. If she was any other woman, she would have made sure to keep a safe distance from him and won't even dare to cast a look in his way.

So then why? Why was Xiao Rufeng looking at him like this and why did his treacherous heart feel so hopeful at the moment?

"You... you aren't bothered at what you've seen? You aren't afraid of me?" He continued to question her.

"Should I be afraid of you?" Xiao Rufeng frowned. "You don't scare me at all. Those men who kidnapped me last night are more frightening than you. You could have taken advantage of the situation last night, but you didn't. You could have your way with me at my weakest point, but you didn't. Unless you are planning to assault me, I don't think I should be fearful of you."

Yan Xiuchen opened his mouth, but realized he didn't have any words to say. His fingers lightly touched the scars on his face and wondered if his wish was somehow granted by the heavenly bastard above.
