Once Upon A One Night Stand

Chapter 90

She didn't feel panicked or peculiar at all as if she did nothing but turned on his phone.

Li Han frowned imperceptibly and took a look at it. When he found the 20 missed calls from Shu Tian,

his expression changed slightly, but he did not call back immediately. Instead, he looked at Jiang

Chujing. "What are you here for me?"

Jiang Chujing bit her lips and walked up to him. "Han, I want to discuss something with you."

"Okay."

"As you can see from the check, I am well now. My wound didn't heal because of the platelet. But I am

all right now. I want to..." And she paused and looked up at Li Han. "I want to go back."

"No." Li Han refused her almost without thinking.

"Han, I..."

Before she could finish speaking, Li Han interrupted, "Chu Jing, your condition is not stable yet."

"But I have been here for five years. When I was young, I stayed in the sanatorium without any friends

or family members. I couldn't talk about myself with anyone. I lived for nothing but taking medicine,

injection, and treatment!" Jiang Chujing looked at him quietly and said, "If my parents were still alive,

they wouldn't want to see this..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Han's face changed. After hesitating for a long time, he put his

hand on her shoulder to comfort her. "Chu Jing, I can't let you take a risk."

"But George said I can go back now." Jiang Chujing saw his expression and knew that she failed again.

She decided not to force him and grabbed his clothes tightly. "And I want to be with you. I'm so afraid

that you'll leave me forever. I can depend on nobody but you..."

Li Han pursed his lips and did not say anything. After all, he held her in his arms. His fingers slid across

her dry hair. Once, she had beautiful long hair.

He closed his eyes slightly. "I won't leave you. I promised your parents to take care of you for the rest

of your life."

Jiang Chujing was annoyed by his words. He mentioned her parents every time, but she didn't want Li

Han to stay with her because of her parents!

"Han, am I a burden to you? If I am a burden, I might as well die..."

"Chu Jing!" Li Han scolded softly. "What are you talking about? You know I don't mean it. Don't say

that!"

How could he feel no qualms to her dead parents for her words?

"You wouldn't have cared about me without my parents. Han, what am I to you?" Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

Li Han lowered his hands and clenched his fists. He looked into her expectant eyes. In the end, he

could not tell the romantic lies. "You are my family. I should take the responsibility for you in my whole

life."

Jiang Chujing would have jumped up happily without the first clause. But he just had to give the

premise every time.

His family.

The family love.

That was never what she wanted.

Jiang Chujing lowered her eyes to hide the hatred in her eyes. She implicated but never confessed her

affection for him for the five years. She was afraid that their relationship would end with her words. But

she could not stand it anymore. Thinking of the 'Hoyden' on his phone, she felt that what she worried

about day and night would finally happen.

After a few seconds of silence, Jiang Chujing looked up again. She appeared to be weak. "Han, I never

thought of you as a family member. You are always the most special man for me. Can't you feel my

love?"

Jiang Chujing confessed with one sentence and she couldn't change it.

Li Han was surprised.

He looked at her expectant eyes and didn't speak. His emotion was complicated and even Jiang

Chujing, who had been with him for so many years, could not understand.

The only thing she knew was that he was unpleasant.

Yes, he was unhappy with her confession, which almost made Jiang Chujing unable to disguise herself.

After enduring it, she took a step back. She seemingly gave in, but actually she took retreat as

progress. "Han, I know it is because of my illness, but I never regret liking you or even falling in love

with you. We've been friends for so many years. From the time you first arrived in the United States,

I've never treated you as my brother. Perhaps you are family for my parents. But you are a man for

me."

Li Han listened to her and knew that he had to interrupt her. He was about to speak when she

interrupted him. "You don't have to indulge me because of the effect of my excitement on my body. I'd

rather get worse than being given a perfunctory answer."

Li Han was to refuse her but was stopped by her words.

He frowned and thought of what George had told him before-

"Don't let her suffer too much emotional change. It is harmful to her body."

Jiang Chujing saw that he was silent again. She secretly heaved a sigh of relief and pretended to be

weak, shaking her body.

Li Han stepped forward to hold her and asked anxiously, "What's wrong?"

Jiang Chujing barely struggled and choked, "I'm fine."

Seeing her like this, Li Han felt bad too. Ling Junze once said that he should directly refuse or accept

her. Since he didn't like her, it would hurt her if he didn't tell her clearly.

Now, Ling Junze was right. He had to face the problem after so many years.

But could he refuse her now?

He didn't dare to think about how Jiang Chujing would be hurt if she was refused. He was afraid that

her body, which was better now, would get worse again.

After thinking for a while, Li Han chose the last option. He looked at her thin figure on the bed and took

a deep breath. "Chu Jing, I promise you that as long as you get well, I will take you back."

He still didn't respond to her confession, but it was good for Jiang Chujing to return. As long as she

could go back, she could repel all women with Li Han's guilt for her parents and care for her.

Jiang Chujing turned her back to him. She was pride but her voice was still trembling. "Really?"

Li Han gritted his teeth. "Yes."

She smiled and couldn't help but laugh. "I will definitely accept the treatment and try to get better to

stay with you as soon as possible."

...

Jiang Chujing rested in the room, and Li Han did not stay there too long. He turned around with his

phone and entered a public office. George went out for work, leaving Ling Junze alone.

He was reading a stack of documents when he saw Li Han. He glanced up slightly. "Why don't you go

to bed?"

Li Han didn't say anything about Jiang Chujing. Instead, he asked, "You don't sleep either."

They looked at each other, curled up their lower lips and looked away.

"Did you contact Shu Tian?" Ling Junze asked.

Li Han was stunned. "What?"

Ling Junze put down the documents in his hand. "Haven't you contacted her yet? Ji Chuanyi called me

just now and said that Shu Tian was almost going crazy because she couldn't contact you."
