Xia Mo took a few steps, before she turned around uncontrollably.

  The thin man was still lying on the floor unmoving.

  Large raindrops fell on his face, as if he couldn’t feel any cold or pain.

  Xia Mo wanted to force herself to leave, but her legs seemed to go against her.

  She walked back towards the man. Seeing that he was frailer and thinner than the previous time she saw him, she said impatiently, “Must you be like this? Isn’t it just your ex-girlfriend despising you? There are so many women in this world. She’s not the prettiest either, must you give up on your life for her? Is it worth it?!”


  The man didn’t speak.

  Xia Mo felt her anger rising, as she couldn’t resist the urge to kick him. “Besides, if you died, Editor Xia would be so sad, and the rest of your family……”


  “That’s enough.” The silent man finally spoke as he sat up. “You don’t have to lecture me about my problems!”


  Xia Mo was so angry from his bad attitude that she could die.

  She had saved him!

  Although he was seeking death, and he might hate her for saving him, once he thought things through, he would definitely be grateful to her!

  Xia Mo immediately sat down beside him, staring at the dangerous sea. “Then, jump back into the sea! This time, I won’t step out of my boundaries anymore!”


  Junyuan ignored Xia Mo, getting up from the beach as he walked towards his car in a haggard state.

  Xia Mo hurriedly chased after him. “Hey, are you not dying anymore?”


  He ignored her.

  “Or, do you want to find another place to die?”


  He continued to ignore her.

  “Are you thinking of going back to write your suicide letter before you die?”


  Finally, the man reached his limit. “I won’t die again.”


  “Wow!” Xia Mo grabbed his arm excitedly, staring at him with bright and sparkling eyes. “Really? You thought it through!”


  Junyuan shook Xia Mo’s hand away, massaging his temple. “It’s not easy to get a taxi here. Where do you stay? I’ll send you back.”


  Seeing his slightly pale face and red eyes, Xia Mo hurriedly waved her hands.

  Thinking that she didn’t want to take his car, Junyuan didn’t act gentlemanly anymore. “Then, be safe when you go back.”


  He got on his car.

  Xia Mo froze.

  Doctor, where did your gentlemanliness go?

  Xia Mo went to open the driver seat’s door, nudging her chin. “You should get off.”


  Junyuan furrowed his eyebrows, impatience on his handsome face. “Is there something else?”


  Noting his unfriendly attitude, Xia Mo felt extremely disheartened. She was still a beauty and saved him earlier, why was his attitude always so bad towards her?

  However, since his mood wasn’t very good, she decided to ignore his rudeness and she pointed at the front passenger seat. “You sit there, I’m sitting here.”


  Junyuan pursed his lips.

  “You drank alcohol. Do you want to go out and kill someone or do you want to be charged by the police and be placed in jail? However, for people like you who have lost the will to live, experiencing jail life might allow you to know the beauty of living freely!”


  Hearing Xia Mo’s noisy chatter, Junyuan felt that it was extremely noisy. He didn’t say anything to her as he moved to the front passenger seat.

  Xia Mo started the engine, stepping on the accelerator and the car immediately moved away.

  In order to ease the stiff atmosphere in the car, Xia Mo turned on the radio. However, the radio happened to play a sad song, so Xia Mo hurriedly turned it off again.

  Glancing at the man staring out of the window after he sat at the front passenger seat, she broke the silence. “Doctor, there are actually many fish in the sea. If you wanted a girlfriend, I know girls who are young, pretty and energetic. I can promise that they’re better than your ex-girlfriend. Yー”


  “Shut up.”


  Noting the murderous eyes the doctor was sending to her, she fell silent.

  It seemed that this She thought that the doctor was rather fond and loved his ex-girlfriend that much. Just a mention of her received such a strong reaction from him.

  They remained silent for a long while.

  Xia Mo drove patiently. When she realized the doctor suddenly glancing at her weirdly, a hand left the steering wheel to touch her nose. “Why are you looking at me like this? Are you realizing that I’m very pretty?”


  Junyuan probably hadn’t seen such a narcissistic and thick-skinned girl and he furrowed his eyebrows slightly, saying coldly, “How old are you?”


  “Twenty.”


  “I’m ten years older than you.” Junyuan’s voice was calm, his side profile handsome. “I’m not interested in young kids. Also, thank you for saving me earlier.”


  When Xia Mo heard Junyuan’s words, she was flabbergasted.

  “D-Doctor, do you think that I’m interested in you?”


  Junyuan looked out of the window once more, remaining quiet.

  Xia Mo glanced at his wet hair, her ears heating up unknowingly. “I admit, you’re very handsome and don’t look like an uncle in his thirties. However, I only did it because of Editor Xia. I have a boyfriend.”


  The man hummed softly, as if he wasn’t interested if she had a boyfriend or not.

  Afterwards, none of them spoke.

  Xia Mo parked the car under the housing.

  She was about to leave angrily when she realized the doctor had fallen asleep.

  He was tall, and she was guessing that he was about 187 centimeters tall, but he had curled up, looking like a helpless baby.

  His drenched clothes stuck tightly to him, showing his thin figure. Xia Mo undid the safety belt, wanting to wake him up, but she merely remained staring at him, not saying anything for a long while.

  The doctor didn’t belong to the same type of handsomeness Uncle Xiao had. Uncle Xiao was handsome and masculine, while the doctor was clean and warm looking, his eyebrows calm but slender. He had inner double eyelids, his eye slits slightly long, his nose well-defined while his lips weren’t too thick or thin. When he slept, he looked like a big boy, with an unguarded calmness on him.

  Since she was young, Xia Mo had seen many handsome men. After all, the men in the Huo family were all at the top of the social hierarchy.

  But it was very rare to see a person as clean-looking as the doctor. His skin was also very fair. She couldn’t find a single pore on his face. Hm, what kind of skincare did he use?

  Xia Mo stared at Junyuan, when he suddenly opened his eyes.

  Sleepiness was still present in his eyes. Xia Mo didn’t know why, but her heart softened because of his eyes.

  She hurriedly moved away, pushing her hair back behind her ears. “Doctor, we’ve arrived at your house.”


  Junyuan hummed hoarsely. Now that the effects of the alcohol were showing, his head ached a lot. “It’s dark now, you should drive my car back.” Once he was done speaking, he opened the door and got off the car.

  Xia Mo sat in the car, watching as he walked into the building.

  Seeing him stumble a little and almost fell when he went up the stairs, she didn’t know what was wrong with herself, as she pushed the door open and ran towards him.

  “Doctor, I should help you back!”


  Xia Mo grabbed Junyuan’s arm and helped him stabilize himself.

  Junyuan’s head ached a lot, so he didn’t push Xia Mo away again, thanking her as he let her help him upstairs.

  Once they arrived at the apartment, Junyuan glanced at the drenched Xia Mo, before he pointed at Xia Yanran’s room. “You should go and take some dry clothes to change into. Remember to help me close the door when you leave.”


  Then, he closed the bedroom door.

  Xia Mo didn’t plan to go to Editor Xia’s room to change, but after sneezing for a few times consecutively, she rubbed her nose as she went in to change into Editor Xia’s clothes.

  At that thought that the Doctor had a headache, Xia Mo didn’t leave immediately. She went to cook some porridge before she made some ginger tea……

  Junyuan was still showering when he heard a deafening scream.

  His head hurt a lot already, and before he had time to think carefully, he took his towel and ran out into the living room hurriedly, thinking that something bad had happened.

  After noting that the scream came from the kitchen, Junyuan ran over. When he saw Xia Mo jumping up and down as she screamed nonstop, he furrowed his eyebrows. “What’s wrong?”


  Xia Mo was still holding a knife from cutting the ginger as she screamed nonstop. “Doctor, there’s a cockroach! Ah, there’s a cockroach!”


  Junyuan glanced at the floor, not seeing any cockroaches. He was about to speak when a soft body jumped into his arms.

  Her legs wrapped around his waist too.

  Junyuan’s expression darkened.

  However, the girl who was stuck to him like an octopus didn’t realize it at all as she cried hurriedly, “Doctor, what are you zoning out for? Quick, step on it, step on it!”


  Seeing that she was really terrified, with tears clinging to her long lashes, Junyuan ended up only darkening his expression as he stepped on that cockroach with his strength.

  “It’s dead, can you get off now?”


  Xia Mo was still hugging him tightly, opening one eye to glance at the floor. She only let out a loud breath of relief after she saw that the cockroach was really dead.

  “Doctor, you’re really brave.”


  Junyuan stared at the girl who was clinging to him like an idiot. “How much longer are you going to hug me for?”


  It was only then that Xia Mo realized that she was still hugging the Doctor.

  There was another scream.

  At the thought that she was still holding onto a knife, Junyuan’s temple twitched as he said, “Girl, would you calm down.”


  How could Xia Mo remain calm? It was alright if she was hugging him, but she even realized that he wasn’t even wearing clothes.

  She jumped off him, not expecting her button to hook the towel around his waist because of her hurry to do so. She didn’t realize it at all, only wanting to avoid him as fast as she could.

  By the time Junyuan realized, it was already too late. “That’s enough, stop moving!”


  Xia Mo froze, seeing the towel almost falling because of her actions. Her mind immediately blanked out, her body moving faster than she could think. Her hands grabbed the towel and pressed it against his abdomen.

  The atmosphere froze for that one second.

  At this moment, a voice trailed from the door. “Brother, are you home? Tangtang and I are back.”


  It was Editor Xia’s voice.

  Xia Mo was panicked and in a mess, her mind still blanking out.

  Junyuan reacted faster than Xia Mo, grabbing the towel and pulled Xia Mo together with him, pushing her into his room hurriedly.

  Junyuan went to his wardrobe to take out his home clothes before he went into the bathroom to change his clothes.

  Xia Mo waited for him to come out, before she said with a flushed face, “I…… my wet clothes are still in Editor Xia’s room!”


  Junyuan ignored her, opening the door as he walked out and slammed the door once more.

  Xia Yanran had just came back from her business trip and happened to meet Xia Tang who came back to take some clothes. The sisters stared at Junyuan, whose expression was completely dark as he walked out of his room. Xia Yanran asked in confusion, “Brother, what’s wrong?? Are you not feeling well?”
