Chapter 955: Chapter 956: I Want a Divorce 9
Nianyang soaked in the hot spring for a night and her body was mostly recovered.
When she came out, it was already daylight, and there was no one in the ward.
She couldn’t tell what she was feeling, but Nianyang felt a bit lost.
Clearly, she was the one who told Li Tingyan to get lost, but seeing that he really left, she was so angry.
That man, even if he did it all for a reason, shouldn’t he feel a bit guilty?
It seems like she can’t forgive him.
Nianyang lowered her gaze, planning to go outside for some air, but as soon as she opened the door, she was stunned.
Because Li Tingyan was sitting by the door, sleeping against the wall.
Such a tall man, with his long arms and legs curled up so awkwardly, it was a pitiful sight.
Yet Nianyang couldn’t help but feel a slight sweetness in her heart.
So Li Tingyan...
never actually left, staying here the whole night instead, unlike those countless nights before when he left without warning.
Nianyang already knew all the ins and outs of this incident, and honestly, she felt quite conflicted.
She couldn’t tell exactly what she was feeling, but the one thing she could clearly sense was that her once dead heart was revived once again.
Women always tend to be soft-hearted.
After all, wasn’t Li Tingyan quite innocent?
Ultimately, he only wanted to protect her, even if he used the wrong method.
But in these days when she was like a living corpse, he stayed by her side, tenderly caring for her and trying hard to wake her up. She’s unsure if this can be considered as making things even.
But she knows, no matter how harsh her words are, her heart has truly fallen for him.
This is their destined fate.
How could she let go?
Thinking this, Nianyang slowly squatted in front of Li Tingyan, tentatively reaching out to touch his face.
Seemingly feeling a familiar presence, Li Tingyan’s eyelids fluttered and slowly opened.
Their eyes met at such close proximity.
Li Tingyan’s eyes lit up, his voice hoarse, "Nini, why did you come out? Are you feeling unwell?"
Nianyang’s face changed instantly, letting out a light snort and turning to leave. Li Tingyan hurriedly stood up, but after squatting all night, he was numb and his tall body lunged toward the ground.
Nianyang turned back, seeing Li Tingyan about to fall, instinctively reached out to catch him. But she was directly pulled down with him, Li Tingyan, afraid of hurting Nianyang, held her tightly, and they fell together.
In an awkward position with her on top, Li Tingyan ignored his own pain, checking on her, "Nini, did you get hurt?"
Nianyang gritted her teeth, "Get your hand off my butt!"
She was clearly on top of him, not injured at all, yet this man was groping around.
Isn’t he just taking advantage of this?
Li Tingyan blinked, "Nini, when you were unresponsive, I was the one who bathed you, why so shy?"
Recalling the image of him bathing her, fire sparked in Nianyang’s eyes, "Shut up!"
"Oh..." Li Tingyan shut his mouth, feeling wronged.
"Why are you still holding me? Let go. Nothing good happens when I meet you, really doubting if you’re my doom."
"Oh..."
Li Tingyan felt even more wronged, thinking that she was the one who threw herself at him, he did nothing at all.
Though angry and unable to speak, he was about to obediently let go when the two families arrived with breakfast, witnessing this steamy scene.

Honestly, readers are divided on whether to go for angst or sweetness right now. If I make it sweet too quickly,
I’m afraid the Female Lead will be criticized as spineless, leaving the author in a tough spot.
