Chapter 1127: I Want to Make You Stay (5)

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

After hanging up the phone, An Xiaoning asked Henry, “Do you have any present you want?”

“Why, do you want to please me by giving me a present?”

“You’re really… You said this too when I asked you if you have any other interests. Then, if I ask you if you want to get intimate with me, will you say the same thing?”

“That won’t be the case. I’ve no interest in you, so I won’t be able to get hard.”

I shall bear with it!

“Do you know how much I want to slap you and launch you to outer s.p.a.ce?”

“I don’t know, and I don’t want to know either,” he replied as he flashed a forced grin.

“I reckon the pictures of us will go onto the news later, so for the pictures of us to come out beautiful, please continue to maintain the smile on your face.” An Xiaoning closed her eyes shut. “Kiss me.”

“No.”

“I’ve already closed my eyes. If you don’t kiss me, it’ll look bad on you.”

“…”

He lowered his head and held her face before planting a kiss on her lips and adding, “Is this enough?”

“Yes, yes.” An Xiaoning was wild with joy. “But it will be even better if we have a French kiss.”

“You’re pus.h.i.+ng your luck.”

“I’ve always been like this, didn’t you know?”

Frustrated, he let go of her and, maintaining a grin on his face, he remarked, “Do you know how much courage I put in when I kissed you? Looking at your face, I find that it’s simply too difficult for me to kiss.”

“Just get used to it.”

A few minutes later, the one sending the food to them found them and pa.s.sed two lunchboxes to them.

An Xiaoning received them, placed the lunchboxes on the long bench, and said, “Let me feed you.”

“I have my own hands.”

“You’re crippled right now.” She completely did not allow him to eat on his own. “You either let me feed you or you don’t get to eat it. Take your pick.”

He had no choice but to let her act as she wished.

“Alright, you can feed me. Let me enjoy the feeling of having a servant feed me.”

She did not take the word “servant” to heart and continued to put on an intimate act as she fed him.

In the eyes of the person taking pictures of them discreetly, they looked exceptionally loving at the present moment indeed.

However, only the two involved knew what exactly was going on.

They took more than an hour to finish this meal, which was an extremely slow pace.

When they returned to the ward, just like An Xiaoning and Henry had expected, the two of them had gloriously ended up on the news again.

This time, there were fewer malicious comments in the comments section, but it did not mean that there weren’t any.

Although reading the comments section was exceptionally upsetting, An Xiaoning did not feel very affected by it.

On the other hand, it was Henry who was annoyed after reading some of the comments.

“Look at this picture, it made me look ugly.”

“No, I think you still look handsome. It’s just a matter of the camera angle and lighting.”

“I’m talking about this one where you were feeding me. Look at how I look in it.”

“Don’t have such a fragile heart. If you do, there’ll be too many things for you to worry about. You don’t even know how good some extreme netizens are at vilifying celebrities and public figures. They photoshop their pictures into horrifying but hilarious states. This is just a matter of how the picture was taken. At least no one intentionally edited the picture to make you look ugly.”

“…”

When she could finally sit down at night after having stood for a whole day and having filmed while wearing her set costumes, Fang Erlan’s legs were aching.

However, the process was a painful but happy one. She and Yan Ge had occasionally exchanged glances, which made her heart beat doubly fast with joy.

This is probably the feeling of being in love, right?

When they were eating, Fang Erlan was obviously not focusing and seemed out of sorts.

It was mainly seen from how she was distracted and would suddenly burst out into laughter.

While Xiao Yue figured she was distracted because she had not slept properly, her sudden burst of laughter made her rather alarmed. “Sis Erlan, why are you suddenly laughing?”

“Nothing much, I just thought of something funny.”

“What funny thing is it? Share it with us,” Xiao Chenyang remarked.

Fang Erlan s.h.i.+fted her gaze and lowered her head before continuing to eat. “Nothing much.”

Xiao Chenyang had a cold look on his face, and the delicious food on the table suddenly tasted bland to him, making it exceptionally difficult for him to swallow them.

He placed his chopsticks down. Seeing this, Xiao Yue asked, “Cousin, you’re not eating anymore?”

“I’m full.”

“You’re full? You ate only so little and you’re full? Your appet.i.te is so small.”

He didn’t say anything much and just muttered, “I’ll wait outside for you two.”

Xiao Yue watched his figure receding and asked Fang Erlan under her voice, “What’s wrong with Cousin? He seems out of sorts and in quite a bad mood.”

“I don’t know.”

After the meal, when the two went out of the restaurant together, Xiao Chenyang was nowhere to be seen.

“Didn’t Cousin say he would wait for us at the entrance? Where is he?”

“Maybe he went back first. Let’s go back as well. It’s not very far away anyway.”

“Maybe Cousin went to buy something. Let’s wait here for him.” Xiao Chenyang felt that Xiao Chenyang was not someone who would go back to the hotel by himself without telling them.

Hearing her words, Fang Erlan agreed and waited with her outside the entrance of the restaurant.

However, after they’d been waiting for him for a whole half an hour, Xiao Chenyang still did not appear or pick up his phone.

Left with no choice, Fang Erlan could only bring Xiao Yue back to the hotel.

When they were in the lift, Xiao Yue asked, “Sis Erlan, Cousin’s not picking up his phone. Could something have happened to him?”

“What could possibly happen to him?” Fang Erlan knew that Xiao Chenyang was not an ordinary person. “You should return to your room.”

“I’ll go to his room to take a look first.” When the lift reached the ninth floor, Xiao Yue walked out and said, “Sis Erlan, I’ll send you a text regardless of whether he’s there.”

“Alright.”

Fang Erlan had just entered her room when she received Xiao Yue’s text saying that he wasn’t in room 908 either.

Where could he have gone to?

Fang Erlan had no idea at all.

A sudden shrill sound came from her phone, “h.e.l.lo, h.e.l.lo, you have a text message!”

Fang Erlan hurriedly opened the message, and it was from Yan Ge.

“We just parted and I want to see you already. Are you in your room?”

Fang Erlan replied to him: “In my room. But it’s not convenient for us to meet, right?”

“Go to the stairway near the lift. No one will be there.”

“Alright.”

Fang Erlan casually brushed her hair slightly and went out of her room again; she soon arrived at the stairway.

When she arrived, Yan Ge was already there.

Upon seeing her, Yan Ge pulled her into his arms tightly. “Do you know how much I wanted to hug you like this during the day?”

Fang Erlan chuckled. “Have you eaten?”

“I have. How about you?”

“I’ve just eaten too.”

The couple continued blabbering on like that non-stop, completely immersed in the sweet phase of their relations.h.i.+p.

Fang Erlan naturally had no idea where Xiao Chenyang had gone to.

He had just then driven to the airport and then took a flight to A City.

It was all because of his call with An Xiaoning.

He originally had not thought of calling An Xiaoning. However, while he was waiting outside for Fang Erlan, he had felt rather bored and simply wanted to find someone to talk to. As he only had a few contacts in his phone, he eventually decided to call An Xiaoning.

When he arrived at the hospital at A City, Xiao Chenyang pushed open the door of the hospital ward to see two people playing a game of mahjong inside.
