Since that passionate night, Park Ji-shin has not appeared for several days. He texted Shen Ye saying he was going abroad to take care of something for a few days.
The day before she was to be discharged from the hospital, her phone rang. Shen Ye picked it up and saw that it was Park Ji-shin.
Shen Ye didn't know when he got his number in his phone; in his memory, he had never saved it.
After a moment of hesitation, I picked up the phone and swiped to answer it.
"Hello."
"Feng said you'll be discharged tomorrow, is that right?" Park Ji-shin's voice came from the other end.
Perhaps because it was late at night, his tone sounded somewhat tired.
Shen Ye hummed in response, "What's wrong?"
"Nothing much, just asking."
"Oh, okay." He was a little disappointed; they hadn't come to pick him up from the hospital.
"What? Remembered to pick you up from the hospital? Or are you missing my... second son?" There was a hint of teasing in his voice.
Shen Ye's face flushed. Why was Park Ji-chen becoming more and more improper?
"Will you come pick me up tomorrow?" Shen Ye asked.
Park Ji-shin didn't answer, but instead asked, "Do you want me to come?"
Those five words sounded especially melodious at night.
Like a feather, it gently brushed against my heart.
Shen Ye couldn't help but wonder what he was like in front of He Juncheng? Did he also tease and flirt with him in the same way?
Thinking about it, I felt irritated and muttered, "Come if you want, I don't care, I'm hanging up."
"You're always like this. Can't you be a little softer? Do you think it's fun to keep talking meanly to me?" He spoke again, but the teasing from before was gone, and his tone was much harsher.
Shen Ye also felt it was pointless; the fish had already taken the bait, shouldn't it be time to reel it in?
But what exactly are my feelings for Park Ji-shin?
To say that one's heart is truly at peace and that one has no feelings for him would be a lie.
This man has an impeccable family background, good upbringing, a gentle nature, and a handsome appearance.
Aside from being a bit of a beast in bed and a bit domineering towards him, there seems to be nothing to criticize.
He is not a saint; it is impossible for him to remain completely unmoved.
Life is long, it doesn't matter who you love, so why not love as you go, since there are so many people around anyway.
"Alright, whatever makes you happy." Park Ji-shin's tone carried a hint of helplessness. "I just landed and I'm calling you. I really don't want to hear you talk to me like this, but whatever makes you happy. By the way, how's your leg? Does it still hurt?"
Hearing his question, Shen Ye felt inexplicably happy.
"Hmm, it's alright, it doesn't hurt anymore."
"Does it hurt or not?" Park Ji-shin asked.
"It doesn't hurt, I can be discharged tomorrow." Her eyes darted around, and she continued, "You just said the plane landed, so are you in City A now?"
"Well, but I have something important to take care of, so I can't come to you right away. That's why I thought I'd call you first." He sounded a little tired.
I thought he was already on his way, but...
Hearing that Shen Ye remained silent, Park Ji-chen asked again, "What's wrong? Why did you suddenly stop talking?"
"Nothing? If you have something to do, go ahead and take care of it. I'm hanging up."
The call ended abruptly as soon as he finished speaking. Park Ji-shin listened to the dial tone, lowered his eyes, and whispered in disappointment, "I just wanted to hear your voice."
Chen Ye sat on the bed, holding his phone and lost in thought. It was so annoying. Every world has its troubles, and they're all the same: how to complete the mission!
