Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 823

Shen Peichuan lowered his eyes and paused.

Sang Yu let out a long sigh. “Never mind then.”

She was about to remove the pill when Shen Peichuan suddenly leaned forward and look her in the eye. Sang Yu swallowed. “I’m just joking…”

Shen Peichuan laid his lips over hers the moment she opened her mouth. The pill clung to her lips as Shen Peichuan pushed the pill into her mouth with the tip of his tongue.

The pill left a bitter taste in her mouth as it melted since it was hard for Sang Yu to swallow with the way she ate it. She scrunched her face up and pushed Shen Peichuan. “Get me a glass of water, please. This is so bitter.”

Shen Peichuan handed her a glass of water. Sang Yu gulped down two mouthfuls of water to wash away the bitter taste in her mouth.

Shen Peichuan found her cute with her face all scrunched up. He reached out to brush the tip of her nose. “So cheeky.”

Sang Yu pouted and glared at him. “Damn you.”

With that, she pulled the blanket over her head and went to sleep. Shen Peichuan tugged on her blanket and said, “This is suffocating.”

“It’s none of your business.” Her voice was muffled by the blanket she had covered herself with.

Shen Peichuan let her be as he got up to take a shower. Sang Yu was fast asleep when he got out of the shower as he could hear her shallow breathing. He crept up to her bedside and pulled the blanket off her face

“Mmm…”

Sang Yu flipped over to face Shen Peichuan when he pulled the blanket away from her face. She was sweating all over since she just ate some aspirin and had covered herself with the blanket.

Shen Peichuan brushed away the hair that was sticking to her face. He then placed a hand on her forehead to check her temperature. She was getting better.

He cleaned her face and neck that were covered with sweat with a piece of damp cloth. Her skin was flushed red from the sweat.

He caught a tantalizing glimpse of what lay underneath the blanket from her collarbone down.

Shen Peichuan swallowed as he quickly moved his gaze away. He went to put away the towel and washed his face with cold water to freshen up. He then lay down beside Sang Yu with a thin blanket of his own.

He would just be torturing himself if he shared a blanket with her since she was naked underneath the quilt.

He couldn’t do whatever he pleases with her since she was already fast asleep and still sick at the moment.

Shen Peichuan tossed and turned restlessly in an attempt to fall asleep. He gave up in the end and simply stared at her face as he thought of how she had come to him in the rain. The corner of his lips subconsciously curled into a smile and he leaned in to place a kiss on her forehead. “I’m very surprise and happy to see you there,” he said gently.

At least it proves that she likes me. She lost her wallet in the rain and fell sick just to see him.

Shen Peichuan’s heart melted upon that thought.

He pulled Sang Yu, wrapped in her blanket, into his arms. I must take good care of her. He thought to himself.
