Shen Jiayu slowly withdrew his hand, which had been frozen in mid-air, and let it hang down by his side, his mood somewhat complicated.
He was certain he hadn't misread it; Su Ping was genuinely afraid of him.
Su Ping didn't know why she had acted that way; it was almost a physical instinct as she resisted Shen Jiayu's approach.
The air in the room suddenly became somewhat still, leaving only Su Ping and Shen Jiayu, who were standing beside the bed, staring at each other in bewilderment.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Shen, I was startled by your dog. I thought it was going to pounce on me again."
Su Ping casually came up with an excuse, and after she finished speaking, she couldn't help but admire how well she had come up with it.
She explained why she pushed his hand away, and also took the opportunity to accuse Lele of twice knocking her down.
Shen Jiayu slightly curled the corners of his lips and said with a half-smile, "Is that so? So Miss Su has seen talking dogs before."
As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Jiayu suddenly froze for a moment, and a sentence involuntarily echoed in his mind.
—The dog started talking! It said its name was Shen Jiayu!
Strange, why would he hallucinate that sentence?
Shen Jiayu shook his head and turned his gaze back to Su Ping.
He suddenly felt a little dazed. The voice he had just heard sounded very similar to that of the Miss Su in front of him. If he hadn't not seen her open her mouth, he would have suspected that she was implying that he was a dog.
Seeing that his eyes were starting to glaze over, Su Ping chuckled and said, "How could that be? Mr. Shen, you're so funny."
She was fine when she didn't laugh, but when she did, it aggravated the wound on her head, causing her to wince in pain.
Hearing the cry of pain, Shen Jiayu snapped out of his daze, frowned slightly, and said, "The doctor examined you and there's nothing seriously wrong. You might have a mild concussion."
Thinking of the big dog that had knocked her to the ground, Su Ping was instantly furious.
But there was nothing she could do about it, because it always appeared suddenly, and she was tackled to the ground before she could even react.
Looks like I should have checked the almanac before going out today, now I've even bumped my head.
Su Ping felt dizzy and lightheaded even with the slightest movement.
Seeing her lift the covers and get out of bed, Shen Jiayu instinctively put his hand in front of her to protect her from falling to the ground.
"The doctor said you need to rest and try not to get out of bed."
Su Ping twitched the corner of her mouth and asked in return, "Should I continue to lie in your bed?"
Unexpectedly, after hearing her words, Shen Jiayu casually replied, "Okay, this is the guest room, not my bed."
That dead straight man.
Su Ping was so angry that she slapped down the hand that was blocking her way. She finally understood why Shen Jiayu still didn't have a girlfriend.
His chauvinistic tendencies have taken hold.
"It's getting late, it'll get dark soon if we lie down any longer."
After Su Ping finished speaking, she gritted her teeth and reached out to hook the shoes next to the bed.
But perhaps Shen Jiayu accidentally kicked the shoes when he came over, because both shoes were now under the bed and out of her reach.
Suddenly, a bad feeling arose in her heart, and two seconds before her toe cramped, she quickly pulled her foot back.
Seeing her sitting on the edge of the bed, panting, Shen Jiayu sighed and bent down to help her put on her shoes.
When the shoes were put on their feet, both of them were stunned for a moment.
Su Ping blinked as she looked at Shen Jiayu, who was half-squatting in front of her.
If she remembered correctly, her relationship with Shen Jiayu wasn't good enough for him to kneel down and help her put on her shoes, right?
So what exactly does his current behavior mean?
It's hard for Su Ping not to overthink things.
Shen Jiayu was also somewhat surprised. His action just now was completely subconscious; he naturally squatted down.
These things never used to happen to me, but now...
Shen Jiayu stared at the delicate, white ankle in front of him, his expression somewhat dazed.
Just then, Shen Silan and Xiao Mei, who had heard that Su Ping had woken up, pushed open the door and walked in, led by Butler Wu.
"Sir, the young master is worried about Miss Su's health and insisted on coming to see her..."
Before Uncle Wu could finish speaking, he opened his mouth wide when he saw the position of the two people by the bed.
A second later, he quickly covered the eyes of the two children next to him.
Shen Silan originally just wanted to show off in front of Xiaomei, but when she saw the two of them acting intimately, she couldn't help but smile.
My uncle was really helpful; he had only mentioned the matter to him before he had already taken action.
As expected of a man from the Shen family, he'll soon have an aunt!
Some were happy while others were sad; Xiaomei was heartbroken.
She finally met a beautiful woman she really liked, but it turns out that the beautiful woman already has someone she likes.
Will they send me to the Shen family's house on weekends like my parents do, so that the two of them can secretly go out on dates?
Just as she was feeling down, Shen Silan, who was walking over, suddenly tugged at her sleeve.
"Xiaomei, don't be sad."
He should have kept quiet, because the moment he spoke, Xiaomei turned her anger on him, choking back tears as she accused him, "It's all your uncle's fault, he kidnapped the fairy sister..."
Shen Silan had been waiting for these words. After rolling her eyes, she leaned closer and whispered, "Don't cry. Actually, I have another way so you can see your fairy sister every day from now on."
Xiao Mei sniffed and asked somewhat innocently, "What method?"
"If you marry me in the future, we'll have the same aunt, and then we can see her every day, right?"
Xiao Mei paused for two seconds, and her first reaction was that the idea was pretty good.
Just as she was about to nod in agreement, she saw the worthless smile on Shen Silan's face.
Never mind, Mom won't let her play with idiots.
Although she really liked the fairy sister, Xiaomei subconsciously resisted the thought of marrying her.
Uncle Wu couldn't help but chuckle when he heard his young master spreading rumors that Miss Su was his aunt.
I wonder how the young master will react when he finds out he was sold by his nephew.
Beside the bed, Su Ping's eyes were only on her shoes. After finally putting them on, she said thank you to Shen Jiayu somewhat embarrassedly.
As a result, because she exerted too much force when she sat up from the bed, she felt dizzy and fell uncontrollably to the side.
Fortunately, Shen Jiayu reacted quickly, standing up from the ground and pulling the person back into his arms.
A faint scent of gardenias wafted towards him, and Shen Jiayu was a little dazed.
This familiar scent felt like it had accompanied him through every day and night.
Thinking this, he unconsciously grabbed Su Ping's hair that was hanging over his shoulder and smelled it again uncertainly.
