Chapter 1535 Who Are You
After exchanging glances, the girl and the old man hurried into the wooden house. They were greeted by the sight of the previously unconscious man coughing non-stop. She then quickly placed her hand on his neck before brushing it in a downward motion to help him breathe better. It was only when he stopped coughing did she stop the soothing action.
Right then, the man on the bed slowly opened his eyes. In his blurry sight, he could vaguely make out the girl in front of him.
Immediately, he frowned. Who is she? Why is she so close to me?
‘‘You’re awake. Are you hungry? Are you thirsty? Do you feel unwell anywhere?’‘ the girl urgently asked.
Her voice was as clear as a bird’s chirp, and when it traveled into his ears, he could not help but change his impression of her for the better.
After forcing his eyes open, he finally got a good look at the girl’s appearance.
The girl in front of him looked like she was around eighteen or nineteen. Her eyes were big, and she had brown wavy hair. If not for the cheap-looking clothes she was wearing, she would have looked like a princess.
‘‘Water…’‘ The man only managed to squeeze out one word before his throat felt as if it had been set on fire. Despite himself, he furrowed his brows.
Once the girl heard his words, she quickly walked over to the wooden table and filled a glass of water for him.
When she realized that he could not drink from the glass because he was lying down, she put the glass on the side stool and helped him up. As the man had just woken up and was still feeling weak, the girl bit down on her lip and let the man lie on her as support while she sat on the bed. Then, she took the glass and held it to his lips.
The two were so physically close that the man could smell the girl’s pleasant scent.
In the next second, he stared at the glass and froze. It was the first time someone had treated him like that.
‘‘Aren’t you thirsty? Hurry up and drink this,’‘ the girl urged in a soft voice.
Returning to his senses, the man finished the water.
‘‘Do you want more?’‘ the girl asked when she realized he had downed the glass in no time.
However, the man shook his head. The girl then put the glass away and helped him back down on the bed.
