Chapter 314 Apologetic Lu Feng...
"That kiss. You didn't stop me," Jiang Yang said.
"I..I was sleepy so I couldn't process what was happening so…." Saying it Nixxxie stopped not knowing what to say.
"I thought, you waited for me every night to come in the room and pat your head." All the time Jiang Yang was aware that she was pretending to sleep.
Hearing it, she felt like a thief got caught and she didn't know how to reply to him. Seeing her embarrassed he changed the topic, "You missed your classes for so many days."
"Hmm! I will catch up with it once I will go back to university. Jiang Yuyan is there to help me." She gave out a sigh of relief because of the change in a topic.
"Right!" He thought about something and asked, "You are here with me. Your mother, does she knows about it?"
She nodded, "I told her and she said okay."
Jiang Yang smiled, "Seems like, you have a cool mother like mine."
"She loves me a lot," Nixxxie replied.
With this talk, the atmosphere came to life but the next question from Jiang Yang took it back to where it was. "What about your father and brother?"
"They are busy in business so I don't get much time to spend with them" She didn't want to tell him anything about her family. She couldn't lie saying they love her too as Jiang Yang already witnessed the reality between them.
Seeing her in a dilemma, Jiang Yang didn't ask her anything and instead changed the topic, "Tomorrow there would be few tests of your mother, if everything is fine in the reports, you are free to leave this hospital."
Hearing his last words 'you are free to leave this hospital' she looked at him in his eyes. He spoke again, "I won't be able to see you this often."
She felt the same way that he felt. She knew, they won't be able to see each other this often and that made her feel sad deep down in her heart but she didn't show it on her face.
"But we can meet sometimes once in a while," He said.
Nixxxie almost ended up saying 'Yes' but changed her words, "I don't think so, as I would be busy with my studies and looking after my mother." She was aware of her condition and came back to her senses knowing the reality that she can't continue what she was feeling right now.
"You are right." Jiang Yang was aware of her condition too but he didn't want to give up or force her.
His answer surprised her as she expected him to be persistent about meeting her.
The lunch was over and both came out of that small restroom to Jiang Yang's cabin just to see someone was waiting for them sitting in the chair.
"Lu Feng, when did you come?" saying it Jiang Yang strode towards him while Nixxxie was shocked to see Lu Feng there.
Lu Feng was expecting to see her in the hospital but not in Jiang Yang's cabin. He was equally surprised to see Nixxxie there as much she was upon seeing him there.
"How are you, Nicky?" Lu Feng came back to his senses and asked.
"As usual, fine." She replied having not so happy expressions on her face.
Before Lu Feng could ask or say anything to her, she looked at Jiang Yang who could sense the tension between them. "Thanks for the lunch Doctor Jiang Yang. I will take leave as my mother must be waiting for me." saying it to Jiang Yang she stepped towards the door but before she could open it, Lu Feng stopped her, "Please wait, Nicky."
She stopped in her track, while holding the handle of the door but didn't say a single word.
"I want to talk to you," Lu Feng said.
She didn't reply and stood there frozen with a cold expression on her face, facing her back towards him, waiting to hear him.
Seeing her stopped and ready to hear him, he spoke, "I know you are upset with me but whatever the reason was there, I will just say, that was the only way to protect so many things."
Jiang Yang preferred to stay quiet and went back to his restroom, leaving these two alone. He knew there might be few things these both should talk out as he got to know the situations in the past.
Once Jiang Yang left, Lu Feng spoke again, "I am sorry Nicky. You can curse me that I couldn't do anything for you."
"When did I ask you to do anything for me?" finally she spoke but she sounded angry.
"I know, you never did but I always thought of you like my younger sister and after Xi Guo, I should have done something for you but…."
"Do you think I don't understand the situations and the difficulties everyone had?" she spoke stopping him from completing his part.
"No. I didn't mean it," he said.
"Then, did I ever expect anyone to come and help me? Did I ever go to anyone to beg for the help?" she said coldly, still facing her back to him.
"No." Lu Feng didn't know what to say to her, "You can scold me curse me. I am fine with it."
She turned to look at him and said while staring in his apologetic eyes with her cold ones "With what right should I do this? You are nobody to me. Everything ended up with the death of my brother."
"I deserve to hear this from you and I am ready to hear everything you will say."
"But I don't want to say anything to the stranger so I will take a leave now." Saying it she turned around to open the door, but Lu Feng stopped her by pushing the door before she could open it.
Seeing him acting like this, she exclaimed, "What are you doing?"
