Chapter 432: Candy, Candy, Candy
In the middle of the night, when Qiao Qing had just drifted out of consciousness, her curtains shook and a shadow hopped in from the outside.
Qiao Qing was startled, “Jun Yexuan?”
Jun Yexuan nodded, “Don’t be scared. It’s me.”
Qiao Qing was furious, “This is the highest level of the building!”
Jun Yexuan walked over, put her arms back under the blanket, and raised an eyebrow, “You were worried about me?”
Qiao Qing didn’t deny it. However, she was still not happy, “Can’t you just use the door?!”
Jun Yexuan was taken aback for a second before his chest shook from laughter. He tapped her nose, “So you’ve been waiting for me.”
Qiao Qing’s face turned black, “No!”
“You’re lying to my face.” Jun Yexuan pinched her nose, ‘Your brothers are guarding you far too intensely. I tried to come over once but was caught by your brother. So I had to go with plan B.”
Qiao Qing, “... Can’t you just not come?”
Jun Yexuan answered, “Didn’t you notice that when you’re on your period, if you sleep with me by your side, you don’t wake up from the pain?”
Qiao Qing froze up for a second. That seemed to be the case...
“Why didn’t you tell my brothers that?”
“You think they’d believe something like that? More likely than not they’d think I’m trying to take advantage of you and made up an excuse.”
Jun Yexuan saw how she wanted to speak but stopped her, “If you tell them yourself, they’d think I seduced you. They probably also think you’re a girl who doesn’t know what she’s asking for.”
Qiao Qing simply said, “You didn’t need to take the risk and come here. I survived all those years without you. I was fine.”
Jun Yexuan responded with a serious tone, “As you said, I wasn’t there during those years. Now that I am here, I would never let you experience that pain again.”
Qiao Qing’s heart shook a little. She saw that Jun Yexuan stood by the foot of the bed and asked, “Why are you standing over there?”
Jun Yexuan was surprised then laughed out loudly, “Qingqing, you’re getting impatient? Don’t you worry. I’m coming over right now so you can hug me.”
Qiao Qing’s face turned dark again and she turned around, “Go away!”
“I’ll stop joking around.” Jun Yexuan lifted the blanket and lied down. He scooched and embraced Qiao Qing into his arms, “When I was flipping between windows, my body became cold. Until I warmed up in this warm room, I didn’t want to go and lie down beside you.”
Qiao Qing didn’t say anything.
Jun Yexuan hugged her tighter, “Actually, your brother was right about one thing.”
Qiao Qing, “What?”
“I’m a good for nothing. Even now I want to take advantage of you. Without a kiss good night, I don’t think my day is complete.”
After he spoke, he leaned towards her lips.
Qiao Qing, “...”
After a long and deep kiss, Jun Yexuan pressed his forehead against hers, “Good night.”
....
Qiao Qing spent her period living in that hotel.
After cla.s.ses on the day she returned to school, Luo Chen went up to her and helped her carry her backpack.
They started to exit the campus and Luo Chen asked, “Everytime you’re on your period, your body reacts like you’re sick. Why don’t you get it checked out?”
Over the past few days, Qiao Qing had been in contact with Luo Chen. Naturally, he knew what was happening.
Qiao Qing said, “It’s due to a condition I had as a child. I can only do my best to relieve the pain.”
Luo Chen raised an eyebrow, “What condition?”
Qiao Qing rolled her eyes, “You think it’s appropriate to discuss this with a girl?”
Embarra.s.sed, Luo Chen rubbed his nose...
