Chapter 1356 - 1360: How Much Longer Are You Going to Keep This From Me?
Leng Zimo shrank his fingers back as if electrocuted. He was really stupid; how could he even get this wrong? Sure enough, was he already a cripple without his sight?!
"I just wanted to go to the bathroom!"
He tried to maintain a calm tone.
The darkness in front of him gradually dissipated, light re-entered his eyes, and then, he saw the door in front of him.
It wasn’t the bathroom door, but the bedroom door. He hadn’t gone the wrong way.
So... had she found out?!
"Zimo!" Luo Xiaoqian’s voice was tinged with tears, "How much longer are you going to keep this from me?!"
"Xiao Qian!" Leng Zimo turned around, smiling at her, "What are you talking about, I was just playing with you. Did you really think I couldn’t see?"
Luo Xiaoqian lifted her face, staring at the expression on his face. Stepping forward, she raised her hand to cradle his face.
In the light, there was a thin layer of sweat on his forehead.
"I can really see!" Leng Zimo raised his palm, lightly tapping her forehead with his finger, "This is your forehead, this is your nose, this is your ear, and here, your necklace is crooked..."
He smiled as he straightened her crooked necklace, "Now, do you believe me?!"
Luo Xiaoqian wasn’t a fool; she wouldn’t be so easily deceived by him.
She knew him too well, and with Leng Zimo’s personality, if this were really just a joke, he definitely wouldn’t explain it this way.
He was covering up, he was covering up his lie.
She could see that he was very nervous.
Her heart also wrinkled instantly. He would rather deceive her than tell her the truth. It seemed the situation was more serious than she had imagined.
"Ah Jiu has already told me, you don’t need to act anymore."
She hardened her heart and lied to him.
Considering the events of the past two days, Luo Xiaoqian easily guessed that Ah Jiu must know the truth behind this. To force him to reveal the truth, she had no choice.
Ah Jiu?!
Anger flashed in Leng Zimo’s eyes.
That bastard, how dare he betray him and tell the truth to Xiao Qian.
"Don’t listen to his nonsense. I’m perfectly fine. If you don’t believe me, I can have Yizhou come and vouch for me. He’s the one who checked on me, and all my tests are normal." Leng Zimo made one last effort, "Really, if you don’t believe me, I’ll show you the test results tomorrow."
Tests?!
So, his health really had some issues?!
Looking at the face still bearing a smile in front of her, Luo Xiaoqian’s heart ached as if cut by a knife. She reached over with her arms, hugging his neck tightly, "Zimo, please don’t lie to me anymore, do you know how much it hurt me to see you like that just now?"
"Xiao Qian!" Leng Zimo raised his hand to embrace her, burying his face in her hair, "I’m sorry."
Releasing him to meet his gaze, Luo Xiaoqian’s tear-filled eyes held his tightly, "Zimo, I don’t want to hear sorry, I want to know the truth. Ah Jiu didn’t betray you, I just lied to you earlier. Now, I want to hear it from your own mouth, what is really going on with your body?!"
Leng Zimo opened his mouth to speak, "Xiao Qian..."
Luo Xiaoqian raised her hand to cover his mouth, looking at him up close.
"Before you speak, I have to tell you, if you dare lie to me again, I will never forgive you. Remember, never, I mean it." She withdrew her hand, "Now, look into my eyes and tell me."
