Noticing Shi Yao's subtle reaction, Lin Jiage asked with a hint of nervousness in his voice, "Does it hurt a lot?"
As he asked those words, Shi Yao could clearly feel the pressure from his fingertips growing softer and softer.
Shi Yao shook her head lightly, "It doesn't hurt that much …"
After a moment of silence, Shi Yao couldn't help but voice out the conjecture she had been harboring earlier, "Didn't you return to your room to rest?"
Lin Jiage, who was staring at Shi Yao's face as he carefully helped her reduce the swelling with the egg, was unable to comprehend the meaning behind her words for a moment, and he replied with a soft "Hmm?".
Left with no choice, Shi Yao could only clarify her words, "I mean, after you left my room, you didn't go to rest but went to the cafeteria to cook an egg?"
So that's what you mean … Lin Jiage replied with another "Hmm", but this time, his tone had turned from a question to a statement.
It's really as I thought …
Shi Yao bit down on her lower lip lightly, "You're injured, so why didn't you go and rest? I'm fine. The bruises and swelling will disappear on their own in two days."
"I was afraid that you'd be in pain at night," Lin Jiage replied calmly.
I was afraid that you'd be in pain at night … It was just five simple words, but they filled Shi Yao's heart with warmth. When she spoke again, her voice had become much softer and gentler, "What about you? Does your arm hurt a lot? "
"Me?" Raising his head, Lin Jiage's lips curled up into a faint smile. Then, as if paying it no heed, he replied, "I'm fine …"
Liar … You can't move your arm for an entire month, and you still say that you're fine …
Shi Yao didn't say a word, but her eyelids slowly drooped.
In truth, she wasn't the sentimental type, but for some reason, she found herself unable to control her emotions at this moment.
It took a long while before Shi Yao managed to calm herself down. Breaking the silence in the room, she asked, "Why were you at the KTV today?"
"Oh … I went to karaoke with my roommate, and my room happened to be right next to yours. When I passed by your room, I heard your roommate say that something happened to you …"
So it was such a coincidence … However, Shi Yao didn't lament over this coincidence for too long. Instead, with a hint of relief as if she had just survived a calamity, she said, "It's fortunate that you appeared. Otherwise, I really don't know what would've happened to me and Nuannuan … You have no idea how overboard they were. They forced me to apologize to Liang Mumu, and they even said things like 'want, want, want …"
Shi Yao repeated the word 'want' several times, but she couldn't bring herself to say the words' play me to death '.
But after stumbling for a moment and finally falling silent, she realized that she had actually told Lin Jiage everything that had happened that night, as if she was venting her grievances.
Oblivious to her thoughts, Lin Jiage noticed that she had paused halfway through her words. He raised his head to look at her, and seeing the indescribable look in her eyes, he immediately realized that what she was going to say next wouldn't be anything good. A deep frown formed on his forehead, and his voice turned cold and sharp as he asked, "What do you want?"
It wasn't as if Shi Yao had never seen Lin Jiage angry before. Back then, when Grandpa Lin forced her to become his fiancée, he had already warned her fiercely.
