Chapter 354: Chapter 354: Taking Care of Her at the Bedside 3

An Ruo couldn’t quite identify the feeling in her heart, part of it was moved, and there was also a strange emotion stirring within her.

She always felt very warm when someone took care of her, let alone when that person was Tang Yuchen.

His care surprised her, made her feel flattered, and above all, warm.

In the light of the desk lamp, she gazed at his profoundly contoured profile and thought to herself how handsome he was. If there had been no past hurts between them, she would have fallen for him long ago.

She used to think of him as a cold and cruel person, always regarding him as a demon in her heart.

Now that she had spent more time with him, she realized he wasn’t so much of a demon after all.

At the very least, he wasn’t heartless and unfeeling, and at least he wasn’t tormenting her anymore.

Thinking of these things, An Ruo softened her gaze, and her lips couldn’t help but curve into a smile.

She wanted to get up and cover him with a blanket, but her legs wouldn’t move, so she had to wake him up instead.

Tang Yuchen was a light sleeper, and the moment An Ruo nudged him, he woke up.

His eyes were a bit blurry with sleep when he opened them, but that quickly dissipated.

Upon seeing An Ruo awake, his first reaction was to check her forehead, thankfully the fever had subsided.

"Are you still feeling unwell?" he asked in a low voice.

An Ruo shook her head, "Much better. You should go to bed and sleep, it’s uncomfortable to sleep like this."

The man didn’t immediately respond to her words, instead, he asked if she was thirsty, and upon his asking, she indeed felt quite parched. After he poured her water and she drank, he then lifted the blankets and lay down beside her.

His arm naturally slipped around her neck, and the other arm wrapped around her waist, holding her gently. Tang Yuchen found a comfortable position before reaching out to turn off the desk lamp.

"Sleep, call me if you need anything," he said indifferently, his words not perfunctory but sincere.

An Ruo murmured a response but lay with her eyes open, unable to fall asleep.

Thinking about how he stayed and looked after her all night, her heart felt warm, brimming with happiness.

Actually, he hadn’t done much, but she was deeply moved all the same.

Did people become fragile and easily touched when sick, An Ruo wondered? Maybe that’s why.

She wasn’t sure if that was the reason, but tonight, for the first time, she felt the warmth he provided was so secure.

And for the first time, she felt the desire to receive more of his warmth.

After resting for a night, An Ruo’s cold had greatly improved by the next day.

The second day of the lunar new year traditionally was for visiting the maternal family, but An Ruo no longer had one, so she could only stay in the villa.

Xia Nuo called her, and they chatted for more than an hour before hanging up.

Beyond that, An Ruo didn’t do anything else that day.

For the next few days, she stayed in the villa, feeling the New Year spirit only through television programs.

Tang Yuchen was not in the mood for the New Year as he was awaiting news from his subordinates.

Three days later, the result he got was that the person he was looking for could not be found.

Could it really be that he was hallucinating?

It must have been a hallucination, because if it was really her, she would have come to find him...

Not finding the person brought a tinge of disappointment to Tang Yuchen, but he wasn’t too disheartened because his emotions had already been greatly eroded over the years.

Once the Spring Festival holiday was over, it was back to work.

Although Tang Yuchen was the president, he also went to work.

An Ruo stayed at home for rehabilitation. Despite nearly two months of rehabilitation, her legs still felt nothing.
