Capítulo 1278: Chapter 1279: How Long Are You Going to Stay Here?

Indeed, she had no reason to be afraid of this man, so why was she hiding alone in the bathroom?

Just as she was about to rise, a numbness so intense it left her legs feeling dead hit her suddenly, causing her to tumble from the toilet!

“Ugh!”

She didn’t make much noise, but falling like that, the numbing sensation grew stronger, like pins and needles, uncomfortable yet indescribable. The immobility gnawed at her, leaving her unable to stand, only able to painfully furrow her brows.

This numbness wasn’t pain, nor itch, yet it made you so numb you couldn’t stand…

Hearing the thud inside, Qin Feimo instinctively reached for the doorknob, turning and pushing the door open.

As soon as the door opened, he saw the woman sitting on the ground, her expression showing a hint of pain.

“What happened? Where did you fall?”

Seeing the man rushing in, Feng Jinglei shook her head, “It’s nothing, I just… sat too long, my legs got numb.”

Perhaps due to being too nervous, she had stayed still in one position, causing numbness like this.

Hearing she was fine, that her legs were just numb, Qin Feimo’s previously worried heart settled down.

The next second, he extended his arms, lifting her completely and placing her back on the hospital bed.

Yet another action completely unexpected by Feng Jinglei…

Staring blankly at the man before her, Feng Jinglei really felt she might be dreaming, otherwise, given Qin Feimo’s hatred towards her, he wouldn’t have bothered to hold her, he’d even feel disgusted to touch a finger, right?

Yes, it must be a dream, otherwise today’s events make no sense.

But… can dreams be this real?

It’s said that in dreams, one doesn’t feel pain…

As he held her, Qin Feimo had just placed her back on the hospital bed when she suddenly bit her own finger hard.

“Ah.” She let out a small cry, it did hurt.

His brow furrowed slightly, puzzled by her action, “What are you doing?”

Feng Jinglei looked up, meeting the man’s narrow, deep-set eyes.

Why, why was he different from before today?

“Nothing.”

She lowered her head, the numbness in her legs seemed to be gradually disappearing.

He slightly furrowed his brow, though he couldn’t understand what she was doing, he didn’t ask further, turning instead back to the sofa to sit down.

He’d finished reading the documents, but felt somewhat bored, and it was impossible to just sit there staring at each other, so he took out his phone, thought of how long it had been since he greeted his cousin abroad, and sent him a WeChat message.

While waiting for a reply, he found some videos to watch, mainly to pass the time, as he rarely watched such things.

On the hospital bed, seeing he had no plans to leave, Feng Jinglei really couldn’t help but speak up.

“Qin Feimo.”

On the sofa, hearing her call his full name, Qin Feimo slowly raised his gaze, looking over at her.

“How long do you plan to stay here?”

“Until tomorrow morning.” He answered blandly, then lowered his head, continuing to look at his phone.

Feng Jinglei was completely stunned!

He was going to stay here all night!?

Why?

“Why do you want to stay here?”

“To watch over you, not leaving your side.” If not for his lowered head and the casual tone when he said this, for a moment, Feng Jinglei would have almost taken it as a romantic gesture.

She pondered and thought something was off.

“Why—”
