Chapter 398 - Ning Zhi missed the part when his eyes lit up. (2)

It was very quiet inside the room and the male nurse yawned from boredom. Occasionally, he would look at his cellphone.

Ning Zhi had no idea how much time had passed. She could no longer stay squatted. She let go of Lu Jue’s hand and wanted to get up and stretch out.

When the soft warm touched was removed from him, Lu Jue’s hand moved and hooked onto Ning Zhi’s fingers.

“Lu Jue?” Ning Zhi was pleasantly surprised.

Lu Jue didn’t say anything. His lips were pinched shut tightly.

Ning Zhi decided to sit back down next to Lu Jue. She put her hand back on top of the back of Lu Jue’s hand. “Is this what you like?”

Lu Jue didn’t say anything, but also did not reject her.

Ning Zhi looked happy. As long as he didn’t reject her.

Ning Zhi saw the calendar sitting on top of the table. It was the 10th today. From the clue given to her by Overlord, Lu Jue hurt and killed himself on the 13th of the month. That was only 3 days from today.

As long as she could ensure Lu Jue’s safety for the next three days, her mission would be considered successful.

Ning Zhi pondered over it. Her plan was to stay by Lu Jue’s side for the entire three days and guard him like a hawk.

Suddenly, Lu Jue pulled his hand back. He lifted his head and pulled it back over and over again, banging up against the wall with the back of his head. Even though the wall was padded, Ning Zhi could still hear loud noises that it made.

THUD! THUD!

Startled, Ning Zhi quickly reached her hand out to stop him. “Don’t do that to yourself, Lu Jue.”

Lu Jue, however, pushed her away.

Unprepared, Ning Zhi fell onto the floor. Lying sideway on the floor, she grunted reflexively.

She was in her invisible state right now. Pain was only fleeting. It disappeared after a moment.

Lu Jue was taken aback. He looked up and looked blankly at Ning Zhi on the floor. He realized that he had hurt her.

The male nurse ran up quickly. “Young Master Lu Jue.”

His intention was to stop Lu Jue from banging his head but he was surprised by Lu Jue abrupt stop. It would normally take him a long time to get Lu Jue to stop.

Ning Zhi sat up. She wasn’t hurting physically, but she felt sad. This Lu Jue did not know her.

She sniffled purposefully. She reached out her fair and smooth hand in front of Lu Jue. “It hurt. You’ve made me hurt.”

Lu Jue pinched his lips shut. His eyelid fluttered but he didn’t move.

“Ouch. I wonder if anything is broken.” Ning Zhi scooted over to Lu Jue and sat back down next to him. She made pitiful sniffling noises and held her arm in front of Lu Jue.

“Lu Jue, my hand hurt.”

She waved her hand in front of him purposefully. “I’m sure it’s fractured.”

Lu Jue’s long and straight eyelashes fluttered. The girl’s arm looked white and soft arm in front of his eyes and the tips of her fingers pink. There was not even a hint of redness.

Lu Jue looked up and quickly glanced over at Ning Zhi. He pinched his lips shut when he encountered her disappointed look.

After a long while, he lowered his head and blew at her arm.

The warm air landed on her palm and Ning Zhi was taken aback a little. Her eyes then curved.

“It’s still hurting. I need another one.” She coaxed.

Lu Jue gave her another quick look and blew again at her palm gently. He then turned his head away, refusing to blow at it again.

Ning Zhi pulled her arm back and there was light in her eyes. “Thank you. Its not hurting anymore now.”

Regardless of which Lu Jue it was, he would always react to her.

Ning Zhi noticed that night that Lu Jue had laid down in bed with his hair wet and the male nurse did nothing to stop him. It seemed he was already used to Lu Jue’s behavior.

His wet bangs laid docilely over his forehand and Lu Jue’s brows and eyes were showing.

Perhaps because he rarely left the house, Lu Jue’s skin tone was an unhealthy pale. That made his eyes looked even darker.
