Chapter 287: So He Can Be Afraid Too

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Ye Qingran could clearly sense that Chu Yan was different from his usual self. He had said so much to her just now. He looked the same on the surface, but she could still sense that Chu Yan’s heart was in a mess.

It was a mess. He was worried, and also afraid.

Ye Qingran leaned against his chest and looked at him with her watery eyes. “What are you afraid of?”

Chu Yan kept his eyes closed, but his hands on Ye Qingran’s body froze.

After a long time, he said softly, “I’m afraid that you’ll turn back into that Ye Qingran.” He was afraid that she would disappear and never be found again.

Ye Qingran leaned over and kissed his cold lips. She promised, “I never thought of leaving you.”

Chu Yan:”…”

She did not want to leave, but that did not mean that she would not leave.

All these years, he felt as if he was trapped in a fog-like dream. The people and things around him were filled with a strange sense of incongruity.

Until he met Ye Qingran. This girl always liked to look down on the people around her and the things that happened around her from the perspective of a bystander. She even had the att.i.tude of someone who was watching a good show.

He could vaguely feel the aura of kindred soul on her.

She was casual, as if she did not care, but she was not stupid. She was smart enough to see through people’s hearts. She looked easy to talk to and smiled at everyone, but in fact, she was a cold-hearted person. She was not as good as she appeared on the surface, but she was especially lively.

That day, she suddenly barged into the private room. She smiled as if she was protecting him under her wings. She pretended to be a sheep to eat a tiger. She looked innocent and naïve, but in fact, she was cruel and wise. At that moment, he felt that his heart had been struck by something.

Perhaps he had been moved at that time, but at that time, he thought that she was a boy.

The closer he got, the more he could not control himself. He thought that he had been moved by a boy. Ever since he was young, women were like murals on the wall to him, just a decoration.

Of course, to him, he didn’t have any thoughts towards men either.

He suspected that he was an as.e.xual, but every as.e.xual had 0.1% pa.s.sion, and she happened to be that 0.1% .

No matter if it was a man or a woman, Ye Qingran was the only one.

However, just because he didn’t care didn’t mean that the other party didn’t mind either.

But he never expected the heavens to tell him jokingly that “he” wasn’t him, but her.

The heavens really loved him. They weren’t two men, so what was there for him to worry about.

Of course, what surprised him even more was that she was Ye Qingran and not Ye Qingran.

Everything was too surreal. What was even more unexpected was that the world he was in was actually just a book.

A book with Mu Qingxue as the center. Everyone and all logic were born for her.

It was no wonder that he returned to Jiang City inexplicably and appeared at the same place as her inexplicably.

However, for some unknown reason, he actually sensed something was off. That was why he did not get involved in the plot and became an inconspicuous backdrop.

As a backdrop, as cannon fodder, and as a pa.s.serby, this was the first time he did not have confidence in himself. He did not know if he could keep this different evil female supporting character.

Early in the morning, Ye Qingran was woken up by the heat.

In the middle of winter, she had always liked to hug Chu Yan to sleep. Because his body temperature was high, it was especially warm to lean against him. However, the temperature was too high now. It was like a hot stove.

She opened her eyes in a daze. Chu Yan was still asleep, and there was an imperceptible paleness on his face.

“Brother?”

Ye Qingran called out to him and reached out to touch his forehead. She was shocked when she touched it. “Oh my G.o.d, why is it so hot! !”

Was he running a fever?

Chu Yan slowly opened his eyes. They were different from his usual deep gaze. He looked at Ye Qingran in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

“Your body is very hot. You must be running a fever.” She did not notice anything wrong with him last night.

“Where did you go yesterday? Did you not rest the whole night?” He had always been in good health. It was obvious that he was tired.

Chu Yan pursed his lips and did not say anything.

She was right, he was indeed tired. He had not slept for two days, and he had been enjoying the sea breeze the whole night. In addition to that, he was feeling uneasy.

Ye Qingran had already gotten out of bed. She opened the drawer to get some cold medicine, fever medicine, and a cup of boiling water.

After feeding him the medicine, Ye Qingran was ready to wash up.

However, just as she was about to get up, her wrist was pulled by Chu Yan. He pulled her to lie on top of him and circled her body tyrannically. “Accompany me.”

Chu Yan was a little clingy when he was sick. It was true. When one was sick, they needed someone to accompany them the most. Even if they did not do anything and just sat by the side, they would still feel heartwarming.

Ye Qingran’s heart softened. “Alright, I won’t go anywhere today. I’ll stay with you all the way. Have a good rest.”

She covered herself with the blanket. “You already have a cold and a fever, make sure you’re kept warm.”

Chu Yan’s lips curled up. He leaned against Ye Qingran’s chest and closed his eyes. He was really tired and listless. He was feverish, but he could not sleep well. He was half asleep and half awake.

Ye Qingran was very worried about him. Halfway through, she helped him answer He Cizhou’s call. She also called the family doctor to make sure that he was just tired from lack of sleep. Only then did she heave a sigh of relief.

Chu Yan only woke up at night. He felt that his body was fine.

Ye Qingran looked at him with concern and asked if he was feeling better. She also prepared some plain porridge for him and fed him the porridge in a child-coaxing tone.

This was the first time he was sick in his memory. He felt an indescribable warmth and comfort in his heart when someone took such good care of him.

After feeding him the porridge, Ye Qingran measured his temperature again. When she saw that his temperature had returned to normal, she let out a sigh of relief.

“That’s great, you should be fine now. But just in case, don’t take a shower tonight. Cover yourself with the blanket and have a good sleep. You’ll be fine when you wake up tomorrow morning.”

Chu Yan held her hand.

Ye Qingran understood his hint. “Don’t worry, I won’t leave. I’ll always be with you.”

Although he had not slept well for the whole day, he could not fall asleep after lying down for a whole day. He just opened his eyes and stared straight at Ye Qingran.

Ye Qingran supported her chin with her hands on the bed and accompanied him beside her.

The room was filled with warmth.

Time pa.s.sed peacefully.

“If you feel unwell, remember to tell me.”

“I’m fine now. You can sleep if you’re tired. You don’t have to look at me like that.” Chu Yan saw that she looked tired.

“I’m not tired.” After making sure that he was really fine, she took a shower and went to sleep.

“Oh right, I want to visit Mu Qingxue tomorrow.”

Mu Qingxue was the female protagonist of this book. Who knew what kind of luck she would have. Even though Chu Yan had locked her up, she was still worried and had some misgivings. After all, Chu Yan had locked her up before, but she miraculously appeared out of nowhere.

Chu Yan hesitated for a moment and nodded.
