Chapter 16: Received: Summer Time Cool Skin Pill (3)
“Boss, how are you feeling now? Dizziness or swelling of head?”
The man on the couch looked unhappily at the room entrance. His eyes were blood red.
“Sleeping pills. Leave them.” His voice was coarse and dull.
He hadn’t been able to sleep all night long, not even for a minute. Now, he has a splitting headache and couldn’t even think.
Except… for a brief moment in the morning.
Because of the girl’s fearless speech.
It brought back his old memories.
That very moment, there seemed to be a little bit of relief from his splitting headache.
Huo Sishen looked down quietly at his own right hand with his deep and complex dark eyes.
Earlier, the touch of the girl’s skin, the softness and the fragrance…. He seemed to still be able to feel them.
He raised his brow and lifted his hand that he used to pinch the girl’s chin.
Just one second, and he frowned and lowered his hand.
All he could smell now was disinfectant.
“You are coming back to the clinic with me today. We need to do a full physical on you….” Qin Ruhai shook his head.
“Not going!” Huo Sishen’s voice was coarser than ever.
Qin Ruhai almost stopped breathing, “Taking sleeping pills doesn’t solve your underlying issues. You have already taken way more pills in the last 6 months than any normal person should. That tells us that your body is building a tolerance to them!”
Huo Sishen lifted his cold, dark eyes, “That’s because my doctor is incompetent. It has nothing to do with me.”
“…. Me?!” Qin Ruhai just wanted to strangle this man.
The tense atmosphere in the room was interrupted by a knocking sound.
Shortly, a crisp voice that sounded like ice water on the hottest day of summer, came like a welcomed relief, “Mr. Huo, are you in? Can I come in?”
Qin Ruhai had an odd look all of a sudden.
Grimm Huo’s third fiancée?
Huo Sishen, still lying down on the couch, flickered his cold and lonely eyes.He waved impatiently at Si Yi.
A moment later, Si Yi grabbed Qin Ruhai by the back of his collar and took him straight toward the door.
“Sh*t, wait!”
“Please come in, Miss Gu,” said Si Yi respectfully while still holding onto Qin Ruhai.
It was Gu Shishi.
“Thank you.” As curious as she was, she didn’t glance over at Qin Ruhai. She just walked straight into the room.
The room door closed again. The darkness inside made Gu Shishi paused in her steps. It took her a little while to get used to the dim light.
She looked around the room; something wasn’t right.
All the curtains in the room was tightly drawn.
It was the brightest time on a summer day, but the room was dark and quiet like the middle of the night.
She lifted her head and could barely see the man on the couch.
He seemed to be in an extremely bad mood.
He seemed like a vicious beast hiding in the dark that was just now slowly waking up!
A cold look exuded from his dark eyes, full of impatience and coldness mixed with a spiral-like wind storm, as though he was trying his best to keep something in check, as though the very next second he could lose all of his control and tear her to pieces on the spot and devour her…
Goosebumps appeared on the back of Gu Shishi’s neck.
He might have looked cold when she saw him in his closet that very first time, but it was far from this sharp, bloodthirsty look!
In the dining room this morning, he looked cold, but he had calmly handed her the disinfectant and then bought her a closet full of clothes.
Any way she looked at him, he seemed to be a very nice person.
It hasn’t even been that long since then; how did his look turned so scary all of a sudden?
What happened?
At this rate, how was she going to improve his fondness for her?!
