Addicted to My Cutie and Sweetie

Chapter 695: A Sudden Apology

"I, I’m fine now..." Ji Weitian came to her senses and hastily grabbed his arm, lifting her head from his embrace.

As if finally realizing that crying like this was a bit embarrassing, she forcefully attempted to reclaim her dignity, "It’s not that I’m completely fine. I got hit a bit hard just now, my nose must be swollen."

Qin Nanyu lowered his head to look at her nose because of her words.

The bridge was fine, the petite nose was a bit red, and you could tell, it must have hurt quite a bit.

Ji Weitian climbed out of his arms and sat in the passenger seat, her eyes and nose were very red from crying.

She looked like a little deer that had been bullied.

Heartbreakingly so.

A timid glance at Qin Nanyu could melt his heart.

"I should still take you to the hospital for a check-up," Qin Nanyu said as he walked around to the driver’s side, reached out to pull the car door open, and sat down.

Before he could start the car, Ji Weitian’s hand had already pressed on the steering wheel.

"I really am okay, my nose is real, it hasn’t been operated on, getting hit like this won’t be a problem, there’s no need to go to the hospital."

After saying this, as if she realized her explanation could be misconstrued, she added another sentence.

"I haven’t had surgery anywhere else either, you can feel my eyes and mouth if you don’t believe me."

"..."

"The only scar I have is from when I gave birth to Ruirui and Yaoyao through cesarean section, but it has faded a lot now."

When Ji Weitian got nervous, she tended to talk a lot.

Especially when she realized that Qin Nanyu was just sitting there not moving, not responding to her words, just staring fixedly at her face, she couldn’t help but swallow nervously.

Her gaze moved down from his chiseled face and glanced at his shirt, which was smeared with tears and snot from her crying...

She didn’t know when he would notice.

If he found out, she wondered if he would hold her accountable.

"I’m sorry," Qin Nanyu suddenly spoke.

His unexpected apology left Ji Weitian stunned for a few seconds, looking at him somewhat blankly.

One second she was worried he might blame her, the next second she heard his apology.

She was a bit slow to react, confused about what he was playing at.

"It’s my fault. I should have found you earlier instead of letting you face those rumors and slanders alone," Qin Nanyu’s hand gently rose.

Just like she said, his fingers lightly brushed her brows and eyes, then her nose, and finally landed on her lips...

The delicate touch revealed no signs of artificial carvings.

Transparent and flawless.

Yet what appeared before his eyes was the scar on her abdomen.

On that night at the B&B, he had seen that scar, and he had wondered how much pain and fear she felt when the scalpel cut through her skin.

But at that time, he was not by her side.

This was a regret and guilt he could never fully mend in his lifetime.

"It doesn’t, it doesn’t matter anymore, what’s in the past is in the past. I was just speaking off the cuff just now. Since we’re not going to the hospital, let’s go back first..." Ji Weitian gripped his hand that was wandering on her face, her voice tense.

His gaze upon her now was too gentle.

It caused her heart to race involuntarily; if he continued looking at her like this, she feared she might not resist doing something to him like she did at the B&B.

Ji Weitian hurriedly pushed the car door open and got out.

As she stood firm on the ground, another pressing matter immediately came to mind.

"Is there any important case at Qin Technology Group recently? Is Kali in charge of it?"
