An Xiaxia snuggled deeper into the blanket, her eyes dodging his gaze.
Sheng Yize sighed and wrapped her hand with an IV drip in his palm.
Her hand was very cold, and it felt comfortable and nostalgic when it was wrapped in the youth's warm palm.
An Xiaxia sniffled and changed the topic. "Sheng Yize, actually … I'm not that fierce. I don't hit people for no reason. Jian Xiner went overboard today, so I hit her. She and Ding Yiyi locked me in the washroom and poured cold water on me. Also, she locked me in the lounge so I couldn't go to English class … "
In the ward, only the girl's soft voice could be heard.
Sheng Yize listened quietly. Although he was expressionless, his eyes became darker and darker.
Why didn't she want to tell him?
Had his beloved little idiot suffered so many grievances in some corner that he didn't even know about?
After listening to her ramble, Sheng Yize's lips twitched. "You're here to complain to me now? Why didn't you tell me before? "
An Xiaxia was like a child who had done something wrong. She gently drew circles on his palm, as if she was trying to please him. "I … I was afraid that you would scold me for being stupid. I can't even solve such a small problem."
Sheng Yize was stunned for a moment, then he said seriously, "Xiaxia, your problem is not a small problem to me."
If An Xiaxia had told him, no, if he had cared more about her, would she not have gone through all this?
He was filled with self-blame, and she felt uneasy.
"No … Sheng Yize, I can't always rely on you to protect me. There are some things that I have to face on my own. Look, didn't I fight back? Hehe … Isn't that amazing … "
An Xiaxia smiled sweetly at him. Sheng Yize was silent for a moment, then he raised his hand and stroked her hair.
What an idiot.
She couldn't be any more stupid.
However, he had to admit that his little idiot had a stubborn and unyielding heart under her innocent appearance.
"You're amazing." After a long while, he said softly and chuckled, "You're so fierce. I'm afraid that you'll beat me up in the future."
"I won't beat you up if you're nicer to me!" An Xiaxia heaved a sigh of relief and joked with Sheng Yize.
"Okay." He only replied with a single word, but his tone was undeniably firm.
That was his promise, a promise that he had never given to anyone else. At this moment, he had given it to An Xiaxia, the one and only person in the world.
He would do everything he could to treat An Xiaxia well and would not allow her to suffer any more grievances!
Pinching her face with his slender fingers, An Xiaxia rubbed her face against his palm and closed her eyes in satisfaction.
As soon as she closed her eyes, those terrifying memories seemed to attack her again. The ice-cold water and the endless mocking laughter made her feel extremely uncomfortable.
Her eyelashes fluttered, making Sheng Yize's palm itch.
"What's wrong? Can't sleep? "Sheng Yize sensed that something was wrong.
An Xiaxia mustered up her courage and asked quietly, "Sheng Yize … are we really suitable for each other? What do you like about me … You always say that I'm stupid, but I know it myself. You gave me clothes and turned me into a little princess. But … I'm not. I'm just Cinderella. Once it's 12 o 'clock, the pumpkin car and the crystal shoe will disappear, and I'll return to my original form … "
"There's no such thing as being suitable for a relationship in this world." Sheng Yize's tone was profound. "Xiaxia, you don't have to be a princess. You just have to be yourself. The current you is the best you can be."
