He removed his hand gently after Luo Qiqi fell into a deeper sleep.
Standing at the side of the bed, he looked at her for a while longer before turning away and leaving the room.
A woman appeared right in front of him just as he stepped out of the room.
They stared at each other for an entire minute before he asked, “What are you doing here?”
“What am I doing here? I’m here to look for my bodyguard. When did my bodyguard turn into a sneaky thief?”
The stranger removed his cap to reveal a chilly but good-looking face.
It was none other than Su Jincheng!
Everyone thought he was dead!
The woman standing before him was Yue Wuxin, the one who fell off the cliff with him two years ago at Xingping Mountain!
“It’s none of your business. I won’t be in your way!”
Yue Wuxin laughed. “Aren’t you tired of keeping that cap on all day? Are you afraid that Luo Qiqi would recognize you? You have to keep this from her before you take back control of The Dark Night. Luo Qiqi will be in danger if she knows the truth now. She’s the perfect bait for them to lure you into their clutches...”
“That has nothing to do with you either. My job is to protect you, it’s not to allow you to meddle in my affairs!”
“Jincheng, you know I care about you!”
“I don’t need that!”
He then turned to leave.
Yue Wuxin chased after him. “Su Jincheng, you’re supposed to be my bodyguard now! That’s the only reason you’re alive now! Why are you leaving!”
He stopped and turned back to look at Yue Wuxin.
“Could you please be quick? I’d like to go back and have a good night’s sleep!”
Yue Wuxin sped up and the both of them headed towards an apartment a short distance away from the Hilton Hotel.
Su Jincheng went straight to his room after returning to the apartment, laying on the bed without even changing his outfit.
The scent of alcohol and Luo Qiqi’s fragrance lingered on him.
The events of two years ago replayed themselves in his mind.
All he could think about was keeping both Luo Qiqi and Ye Zhongjue safe at Xingping Mountain at the time.
He felt like he had owed Luo Qiqi too much by mistaking Ming Ruoyuan for her and even taking a kidney away from her.
Like Luo Qiqi said, she was the farmer who saved an ungrateful snake, and all he did was hurt her.
