My Sloppy Husband Is Actually a Handsome Bigshot!-Chapter 300 - 283 Silly Dog 2

His voice was flat, but his gaze was oppressive.

Upon hearing this, He Zhenxin’s heart started to stir. She hadn’t expected that he would actually come downstairs for this?

Did he really think he had a body of steel?

This might just make it worse again!

"I’ll go up if I want to, and I won’t if I don’t. Why do you care?"

For a moment, He Zhenxin couldn’t think of the right words, so she simply decided to play dumb.

On the contrary, Li Yanan couldn’t help but smile when he heard her say this.

He Zhenxin, hearing his laughter, her previously wandering gaze now fixed on his face, suddenly recalling the dream she had last night.

Instantly...

She felt all out of sorts!

"When you were looking at me just now... what were you thinking?" Li Yanan sensitively picked up on her emotions and couldn’t help but speak.

Knowing full well that Lin Zhenxin was like a little cat ready to claw at any moment, yet he still wanted to tease her.

"What’s it to you?" As anticipated, He Zhenxin’s face flushed red instantly.

She couldn’t possibly say that just now...

She had thought of the overly vivid dream of spring she had last night, could she?

"Come up with me." Li Yanan stopped teasing and only glanced at her outfit for today.

A simple blue shirt paired with a denim mini-skirt, her hair cascading down to her waist with a slight wave, overlapping with the image from his memory, yet somehow different.

But no matter how different it was.

She was still his Zhenxin.

He Zhenxin saw him reaching out to grasp her wrist again, instinctively dodging, intending to say something, but her gaze inadvertently glanced to the side.

Whatever she saw, her face took on an odd expression.

Li Yanan clearly noticed this and instinctively wanted to turn around.

"Don’t turn back!"

He Zhenxin said as she hugged Li Yanan’s waist, nestling her face into his chest...

In an instant, that enticing woody scent hit her again.

He Zhenxin really didn’t understand why the scent on a man could be so pleasant?

"Don’t move!" Perhaps seeing Li Yanan about to move, He Zhenxin, in her panic, quickly wrapped her arms around his waist.

Li Yanan’s tall body immediately became motionless.

"Block me a bit." He Zhenxin was truly anxious, not feeling at all how intimate their posture appeared.

Li Yanan only felt her soft body continuously pressing into his arms, with a faint elegant scent.

It was the same bath gel fragrance as on Lin Tuantuan.

Li Yanan didn’t turn back, and he wasn’t particularly concerned with who exactly had arrived behind them to provoke such a strong reaction from her.

He reached out and pulled her into his arms, his tall and lean frame enveloping He Zhenxin entirely.

She was still small and slender, even after five years, even now, at the age of twenty-seven, her appearance hadn’t changed much.

But himself...

That day, Lin Tuantuan had hugged him and found a white hair at his temple.

He was really getting old!

He Zhenxin clutched the fabric of Li Yanan’s hospital gown tightly, occasionally peeking out until she saw a man and a woman enter the hospital, finally letting out a sigh of relief.

However, doubt arose in her heart.

Why would second uncle be with third aunt at the hospital?

And their expressions didn’t seem right?

Li Yanan’s gaze fell on her hand clutching his clothes, small, slender, and white, flawless.

The next second, He Zhenxin let go.

"Where are you going?" Seeing her walk toward the hospital, he finally spoke, his voice low.

He Zhenxin then remembered that Li Yanan was still there.

Especially recalling how she had been trying to avoid his touch, yet in the next moment threw herself into his arms, her snow-white face instantly turned crimson.

"Well..."

He Zhenxin wanted to say something, but whatever she said didn’t seem quite right.

Moreover, she was anxious to find out what was happening between second uncle and third aunt, so she simply turned and headed into the hospital...

Fortunately, those two were still talking, and not walking fast.

As He Zhenxin entered into a gap in the hospital, she saw them heading into an elevator.

She watched as the elevator doors closed from inside, and only then did she emerge from the corner, arriving at the elevator, pressing the button.

The elevator had only the two of them just now, so unless an unexpected event happened, she would just have to see which floor the elevator stopped at to know where they were headed.

Soon, the elevator indeed stopped on the twelfth floor.

Then it didn’t go up further, but slowly descended again.

The twelfth floor?

He Zhenxin’s gaze then shifted to the hospital floor indicator.

Her eyes suddenly widened.

The twelfth floor was actually...

"Those two people, do you know them?" Suddenly, a warm breath brushed past her ear, giving her a scare.

Turning around, she saw that Li Yanan had been following beside her.

So all her actions just now, he had seen them?

"Can you not stand so close while talking to people?" He Zhenxin covered her blushing ears.

Just now it had felt like he was almost biting her ear.

The heated sensation quickly spread throughout her body.

Making her feel extremely uncomfortable.

The elevator’s metal doors slowly opened before the two of them, revealing no one inside.

"Let’s go up, Tuantuan is still waiting."

It was only when He Zhenxin came to her senses that she realized she’d been led into the elevator by Li Yanan.

Moreover, her hand was still held in his palm.

Retracting her wrist, He Zhenxin gave him a fierce look, and stood firmly at the corner farthest from him.

Li Yanan pretended not to notice her glare, the corners of his lips curving slightly.

The elevator was silent, slowly ascending.

And Li Yanan’s ward was located on the 34th floor.

"What were you thinking... when you looked at me earlier?"

Suddenly, He Zhenxin heard Li Yanan speak.

"What..." She wanted to ask when, but a flash of memory in her mind suddenly clarified it for her...

What exactly Li Yanan was asking about!

He was asking what she was thinking when she blanked out looking at him!

How did he still remember that?

"I was thinking, Mr. Li should keep Mother Tuantuan in mind when he does things."

He Zhenxin was somewhat angry, not just at Li Yanan, but also at herself.

Angry at herself for having thoughts that should not be there about a man she had just met.

While she was thinking, a sudden click sound interrupted, and the elevator suddenly shuddered.

He Zhenxin instinctively grasped the handrail in the elevator.

The lights in the elevator blinked on and off and eventually went out.

The elevator had malfunctioned!

The elevator was completely enclosed, and without light, it was very dark.

Holding tightly onto the handrail, it took a while for He Zhenxin’s eyes to adjust to the sudden darkness, but...

Her fingers felt slightly cold and a bit shaky.

"Are you scared?" Li Yanan’s calm, low voice came.

He Zhenxin was startled for a moment. Her previously chaotic heart surprisingly calmed down upon hearing his voice.

"Not scared." After a moment, she spoke.

"Mm." When Li Yanan’s voice sounded again, He Zhenxin realized that he had moved positions, seeming to be directly in front of her.

Soon, she heard the sound of him pressing the emergency communication button.

Not long after, voices were heard over there, making He Zhenxin feel more at ease.

Listening to Li Yanan communicating calmly and fluently in English with the other side, she was uncharacteristically dazed.

His voice was really nice to hear.

And also felt really familiar.

Over the years, she would occasionally dream, and even though everything in the dream was unclear, there was always a man’s voice repeatedly calling her name.

It seemed like he was waiting for her.

Utterly tearing her heart apart with each call.

Upon waking up, she couldn’t even remember how many times she’d soaked her pillow with tears.

"What are you thinking?" When Li Yanan’s voice rang out again, He Zhenxin realised, rather hazily, that he seemed to be a lot closer.

"Why... did the elevator malfunction..."

He Zhenxin didn’t want him to grasp onto her thoughts, casually making up an excuse.

But there was no way Li Yanan would be so easily fooled, was there?

"They said someone will come to repair it soon."

"Mm..." Why did she feel like his voice was an inch closer again?

He Zhenxin’s hand still held onto the handrail inside the elevator when she soon sensed something amiss.

She sensitively detected that Li Yanan’s hand was positioned near hers.

Feeling nervous, she swallowed her saliva, sensing him coming closer, her hand instinctively withdrew.

Her body contracted into the corner as well.

He was closing in.

She could feel it.

Both of them stood in silence, seemingly locked in a standoff within the darkness.

Suddenly, as if tired of this cat-and-mouse game, Li Yanan abruptly reached out and grasped her slender waist just when she was unprepared!

"Li Yanan, you..."

Before she could even finish speaking, her mouth was covered by Li Yanan!

His hand, which had been wrapped around her waist, suddenly lifted her, causing her feet to leave the ground!

He Zhenxin opened her eyes wide with fear, grasping in the darkness for something to hold onto, quickly finding Li Yanan’s shoulders.

He Zhenxin felt her lower body pressing against the elevator’s handrail, her whole back leaning against the cold metal wall of the elevator.

Even through her shirt, she could sense the scorching heat in front and the chilling cold behind—a stark contrast!

She felt that Li Yanan had gone mad!

"Zhenxin..." Li Yanan’s voice came to her ear, laced with a lingering undertone.

He Zhenxin’s eyes widened, his voice like a death knell, making her heart pound violently, as if she were dying.

Zzz... zzz...

Accompanied by this odd sound, the previously dark lights flickered on and off.

Clearly, the repairmen were working on the elevator.

He Zhenxin’s full cognition gradually returned, shame washing over her, pushing at Li Yanan out of reflex.

Yet Li Yanan stood like a mountain, unmoved.

Tears were almost squeezed out of He Zhenxin by this man!

With a snap, the elevator lights suddenly brightened, and the previously halted elevator began to rise again.

With the bright lighting, Li Yanan could clearly see her red-rimmed eyes.

His fingertips stiffened slightly.

Seizing the moment of his distraction, He Zhenxin vehemently pushed him away and, as if venting her anger, with a sharp slap, she swung back and slapped him across the face!
