Chapter 47 -47: Confess Again

After saying that, Cheng Yi started walking upstairs.

Xinan watched his retreating figure for a while, then quickly followed after him.

As they entered the bedroom, Cheng Yi took off his coat, tugged at his tie, and then turned to look at Xinan, who was still standing at the doorway, hesitating to come in, “What’s the matter? Are you afraid I’ll eat you?”

Xinan slowly walked in, then took out the suit and spread it on the bed.

“Didn’t I say I wanted you to help me put it on by hand?” Cheng Yi spoke again.

Xinan had no choice but to do as told, helping Cheng Yi put on the suit jacket, but when it came to the trousers, she encountered a problem.

“Zip it up yourself,” she said, her face blushing as she spoke.

But Cheng Yi didn’t move. Instead, he placed Xinan’s hand on his waistband, “I said I wanted you to help me.”

Startled by Cheng Yi’s sudden action, Xinan felt like she had touched something with her fingertips and retracted her hand sharply, as if electrocuted.

Seeing her large reaction, Cheng Yi coldly chuckled, “If you don’t want to, then forget it.”

Biting her lip, Xinan looked at his expression, hesitated for a long time, and then reached out to pull up the zipper.

But when her hand touched his zipper, Cheng Yi suddenly grasped her wrist,

His voice was low and carried a chill, “Xinan, sometimes I really don’t know what’s going on in your head.”

Clearly so resistant, yet trying so hard to please him.

He really wanted to cut open her heart and see what was actually inside…

Cheng Yi sighed and then let go of Xinan’s hand before walking towards the bathroom.

Only when the sound of running water from the bathroom reached her did Xinan slowly sit back down on the bed, truly not understanding what she had done wrong to make Cheng Yi so angry.

A week later, Han Jibai finally woke up. Xinan was shooting the cover for a domestic fashion magazine when she got the news.

This content is taken from freeweɓnovel.cѳm.

The theme of this issue’s cover was “Nature and Beauty.”

Two stylists surrounded Xinan, one doing her hair, the other applying makeup.

As Xinan was a beauty with bold features, she usually wore heavier makeup, but this time, in pursuit of natural beauty, the makeup artist only gave her a simple foundation and lipstick.

Soon after getting ready, the photographer began to call for action, and in the next second, Xinan was in the zone.

After shooting several sets of photos, the photographer was very satisfied because Xinan was indeed very photogenic, with no bad angles, looking good no matter how she was photographed.

A professional photographer paired with a dedicated model quickly wrapped up the shoot.

After the magazine shoot was over, Meng Qiu brought over Xinan’s clothes.

After changing clothes, Xinan finally started to look at her phone, only then seeing the message from Ran Shasha, saying Han Jibai was awake.

After filming “Mist” and “It’s You”, Xinan’s popularity had surged, and Ding Lan no longer allowed her to take taxis on her own and instructed her to always carry a mask and sunglasses.

So lately, when Xinan went out, she drove herself.

By the time she arrived at the hospital, Jiang Yurou was already there in the room.

Seeing Xinan, Han Jibai’s face showed a warm smile, like the rising sun, brilliant and dazzling.

“Nannan, you’re here,” he said, his face still somewhat pale despite wearing the hospital gown.

Xinan walked in, placed the bouquet of flowers and fruit basket on the table, and spoke, “Brother Ji Bai, how’s your recovery? Are you still feeling discomfort anywhere?”

Han Jibai smiled and shook his head, then asked, “I heard from Shasha that you were the one who took me to the hospital?”

“Mm.”

“Well, that means you’re my lifesaver. I must properly thank you another day, Brother Ji Bai.”

Xinan said, “There’s no need, as long as you’re okay.”

Jiang Yurou spoke up, “Yes, the most important thing is that you’re alright.”

When Jiang Yurou arrived at the hospital, Han Jibai had just been wheeled into the ward. Seeing him with tubes all over his body, Jiang Yurou realized for the first time how fragile life could be.

Since Han Jibai had just taken his medication, he began to feel sleepy after a short conversation.

Xinan and Jiang Yurou, seeing this, didn’t want to disturb him any longer. They let him rest and decided to visit him another day.

After walking out of the ward, Jiang Yurou suddenly remembered their conversation from the other day and asked, “Nannan, are you and Brother Yi still okay?”

At the mention of this matter, Xinan’s expression dimmed a bit, and she told Jiang Yurou everything about her recent situation with Cheng Yi.

“What?” Jiang Yurou’s eyes widened upon hearing this, “Nannan, you mean to say that when you called Brother Yi, a woman answered the phone? And this woman also told you that Brother Yi was busy and asked you not to call again?”

“Mm.”

“Did Brother Yi explain anything to you?”

Xinan shook her head, “I didn’t ask him.”

“What was his reaction?”

“He seemed very angry…” That was the part Xinan found most puzzling.

“Angry?” Jiang Yurou thought for a moment, then suddenly had a realization, “Nannan, Brother Yi’s attitude shows that he really cares about your reaction!”

“Rourou, what do you mean by that?”

Jiang Yurou looked into Xinan’s eyes and said, “Think about it. You’re Brother Yi’s wife. When you call him, a strange woman answers, and at that moment, you should be really angry, but instead, you didn’t even question him.”

Xinan frowned, “But wouldn’t that just annoy him more?”

“How so?” Jiang Yurou exclaimed, “Brother Yi’s anger means he wants you to question him, and the calmer you appear, the angrier he will get.”

Seeing Xinan fall silent, Jiang Yurou asked, “Nannan, do you know why Brother Yi cares so much about your reaction?”

Xinan paused for a moment, then slowly said, “Why?”

Jiang Yurou spoke earnestly, “Because he wants to see you jealous, he wants to know whether you like him or not.”

Boom! It felt as if something had exploded in Xinan’s mind.

Jiang Yurou continued, “Nannan, if you still like Brother Yi, try confessing to him one more time, or alternatively, test him to see if he really likes you.”

“But… but I…”

Jiang Yurou suddenly took Xinan’s hand and said, “Nannan, you must learn to follow your heart. If it turns out to be another failure, then let him go.”

Jiang Yurou really didn’t want to see Xinan torturing herself like this.

But intuition told her that Cheng Yi liked Xinan. As to why Cheng Yi had rejected her before, only he knew.

“Rourou, let me go back and think about it.”

Ever since she was rejected by Cheng Yi in college, Xinan had never thought about confessing her feelings to him again. But maybe Jiang Yurou was right; she should follow her heart.

“Okay.”
