The man seemed to be frightened by her bold behavior. For a moment, he had no reaction and just stared at her blankly.
Bai Jing felt like she was infected. Her face felt like she had a high fever and even her breathing became hot.
His mind was in a mess and he couldn't think of anything. He just subconsciously straightened his body and explained quickly.
"I, I didn't mean to do anything, you just scared me so much that I accidentally slipped..."
Jiang Ziqian rarely saw Bai Jing so flustered.
At this moment, he finally came to his senses, and there was a slight surge of emotion in his eyes.
When he just woke up, he saw Bai Jing right in front of him. She even took the initiative to get close to him, which made him think he had another dream about her.
It was just the slight pain coming from the corner of his mouth, a feeling that was too real, that told him that he was not dreaming.
Jiang Ziqian pursed his lips lightly, sat up from the bed, and raised his hand to turn on the light next to him.
As the light in the room grew brighter, the view became clearer.
...
...
Bai Jing couldn't see clearly at first, and she didn't expect that she had directly scratched the corner of the person's lip. The red mark fell on the cold and pale skin, and it was almost as if the four big words "ironclad evidence" were written on it.
Bai Jing just took a look and quickly lowered her head, her face becoming a little hotter than before.
There was a nameless ambiguity in the air, and even the atmosphere became a little subtle.
Jiang Ziqian looked at her for a while, his eyes deepened.
…It looks like I won’t forget it this time.
Bai Jing took a slow breath and raised her head again, but she didn't dare to look into the other's eyes, nor did she dare to look at his lips. Her eyes unconsciously turned to the side.
The next second, he picked up the key next to him and handed it to Jiang Ziqian.
"I...I have already sent the information to Aunt Han, and then I realized that I forgot to put the key down when I left, so I actually came to return the key to you."
Jiang Ziqian took the key from her hand and checked the time. His voice was still a little low and hoarse.
"Have you had dinner?"
Bai Jing originally thought that he would be extremely angry, but unexpectedly, when she heard his tone at this moment, instead of the cold feeling of anger, she even had a vague illusion of gentleness.
Bai Jing felt more and more that she must have been infected. She felt a little dizzy and even stumbled when she spoke.
"No... I haven't eaten yet."
After Bai Jing brought him the medicine at noon, Jiang Ziqian took a nap after taking it and only woke up just now.
Maybe because he had a good rest and the antipyretic medicine was effective, he was sweating all over, his clothes were soaked with sweat and stuck to his body, and it seemed that his fever was almost gone.
So he told Bai Jing to wait a moment, took some clean clothes and went into the bathroom.
Bai Jing actually didn't know what she was waiting for, but because she had just gotten into trouble, she sat down and waited obediently.
However, Jiang Ziqian didn't let her wait long. After a while, he changed his clothes and came out of the bathroom. His hair was combed neatly and he put on his glasses again. He looked no different from the usual cold and serious Professor Jiang.
Jiang Ziqian walked up to her and said, "Let's go."
Bai Jing's mind was still a little confused. She was slightly stunned when she heard this and asked in a somewhat dazed tone, "...Where are you going?"
"canteen."
Jiang Ziqian looked at her, his tone calm and steady, "You just said you haven't had dinner yet, and you helped me today, so I should treat you to a meal to thank you, or do you want to eat something else?"
"No, no, it's just a small matter, don't take it to heart," Bai Jing waved her hand quickly after hearing that. "If I really want to talk about helping, Teacher Jiang, you helped me more before. I just got some medicine from the school clinic today and delivered some information on the way."
As she spoke, she raised her head and looked in the direction of Jiang Ziqian.
Noticing that the corners of her lips were still visibly red, she unconsciously retracted her fingertips, then quickly looked away the next second.
The most important thing is that she can't carry the evidence of her crime around with her!
There are so many teachers and students in the cafeteria. If she meets someone she knows, she would want to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.
Jiang Ziqian frowned slightly, "Not hungry?"
It was indeed not early at this time. Bai Jing had thought about checking on him, so she did not stay at Jiang Han's house for dinner, but went straight back to school.
Now that he said that, she actually felt a little hungry.
Moreover, Jiang Ziqian had been lying down for the whole day, only drank half a bowl of porridge at noon, and took some antipyretics, so he should be hungry by now.
Bai Jing thought for a moment and asked tentatively, "Teacher Jiang, do you have any noodles? How about... I cook some?"
Jiang Ziqian looked at her for two seconds, with no expression on his face, and no one knew what he was thinking.
After a while, I heard him say "okay" lightly.
And then said.
"Then I'll trouble you."
Apart from anything else, Bai Jing always had to work overtime in the past, and sometimes when she came home and wanted to eat something, she would put some noodles in the pot.
After a while, I have become quite experienced in cooking noodles.
It didn't take too much time, and soon two bowls of noodles were brought out from the kitchen and placed on the dining table.
When I was about to invite Jiang Ziqian to come over for dinner, I found that the latter was sitting on the sofa reading a book with a cold and indifferent expression on his face, as if nothing had happened before.
If the evidence had not been conclusive, Bai Jing would have almost thought that she was just dizzy and had done it in her imagination.
Why is the second male lead so calm?
Shouldn't he regard her as someone with ulterior motives, a bad person who was so bold as to attack him while he was sick and sleeping?
But not only was Teacher Jiang not angry, he even said he would treat her to a meal?
And it really happened just now. Logically speaking, it should be the first time for the other person to be "kissed". Even if he doesn't feel angry, he should be a little shy, right?
Why was she the only one who felt embarrassed?
Or does the other party mean to act as if nothing happened and act as if he doesn't care?
Bai Jing looked in Jiang Ziqian's direction again and pursed her lips unconsciously.
Jiang Ziqian probably felt her gaze and looked over here.
Bai Jing calmed her heartbeat, thinking that since everyone else acted as if it was okay, she didn't need to worry too much about it, so she followed suit and pretended to be calm and indifferent.
"Teacher Jiang," Bai Jing looked into those dark eyes and tried to keep her tone as calm as possible, "It's done."
The two people's eyes met in mid-air.
Although they both had calm looks, there was an inexplicable tension in the air, as if an extremely taut string was tied between the two of them.
