Chapter 832
You Hit My Heart
The next day, when Joyce woke up from her sleep, she was curling up
on the sofa in her suite and covered with a blanket. It was actually so
uncomfortable.
Inside the room, the curtains were drawn tightly, and not a single ray of
light could get in.
She looked at the phone beside her and was surprised that it was
already ten in the morning.
It was really a long deep sleep.
Last night, she bandaged Luther's arm, took a hasty shower, washed
her face, and reapplied the mask.
After another careful check and she was sure that the bleeding on his
arm had been stopped, she then went to sleep.
It seemed, there was still no movement inside the room. Was he still
sleeping? There was no way he could have slept until this point and not
woken up.
Was it possible that the effect of yesterday's medicine had not yet
passed? Or did something happen?
She got up suspiciously and walked gingerly into the room.
She approached him slowly. She then heard the sound of his even
breathing and saw the steady rise and fall of his chest. She turned on
the light and was relieved to see that his face looked normal and she
turned it off again.
It was good that everything was okay, so she just let him sleep a while
more.
Thinking that way, she turned to leave.
Unexpectedly, suddenly, the hem of her coat was tugged, and she
stood still in a daze.
"Don't go." Luther murmured, "I'm awake."
"Oh."
âI'm going to pull the curtains open.â
She was ready to walk to the window, but he still pulled at the hem of
her shirt, just like a child.
She looked back at him helplessly, "What's wrong? Let me go.â
âThis is not your presidential suite, and we donât have automatic
curtains here.
âYou are now, sleeping in my room!"
"l know. Just come here."
He sat up from the bed and supported himself up. Last night his shirt
was wrinkled into a mess, and now it seemed to stick to him nicely.
He gave it a hard pull.
She dropped to the edge of the bed.
He moved over from beside her. They were so close that she could
even feel his burning breath spraying on the nape of her neck.
He lifted his hand and when he touched her hair...
She flinched a bit, and immediately tensed up, "What are you doing?
Have the effects of the drug not passed yet?"
Luther let out a low laugh, "I'm already fine. What are you thinking? I
just found a feather on top of your hair."
He plucked a feather from her hair and handed it to her. He raised his
narrow eyebrows and looked at her playfully, âDon't be nervous. If I
really want to do anything, I did it last night. No need to wait until
morning."
She angrily threw the feather on the floor. It must have been from the
cushions she slept on last night.
He had such sharp eyes and could see clearly in such a dark room.
Now that he was in such good spirits, he must be fine.
"Now that you're awake, get up and go to your own room." She
sounded pretty annoyed.
Luther's entire body was resting on the bed, and he complained, "I felt
tired. I didn't eat dinner last night, and I got tossed and turned all night,
and I bled a lot. I'm tired and hungry. I don't have the strength to get up
now."
Why would he sound so strange? What could he mean by âtossed and
turned"? Who was actually tossed and turned all night?
âI didn't have dinner either, okay?" She glared at him, stood up, and
pulled the curtains open slightly.
She was even more tired and hungry?
The room was instantly bright as the glorious sunlight shone in.
Luther subconsciously raised his hand and blocked the blinding light.
âYou go and buy breakfast, and buy a little more.â
âI want buns, congee, rice cakes, dumplings, and soy milk. Perhaps
you can even get me something special in the Capital. I'm hungry."
