Chapter 14

I’m so screwed.

Are we just destined to clash?

Just because I ate a chicken drumstick, Dad actually docked my allowance for next month.

Even after Dad was discharged, he still made me dutifully bring Lu Xiao his meals every day, and even forced me to help Lu Xiao catch up on all the classes he’d missed recently.

Once Lu Xiao is discharged, my allowance for next month will be returned to me.

Lu Xiao was lying on the bed, playing on his phone, chewing on a lollipop stick.

I clattered my books and stationery all over the table.

“Time for tutoring, time for tutoring! Put that phone away!”

Only then did Lu Xiao lift his eyelids to glance at me, putting his phone away.

For some reason, I caught a glimpse of lingering ruthlessness in his eyes.

The black-haired boy sat cross-legged on the hospital bed, his patient gown loosely fastened with only a few buttons.

From where I stood, I could even see his beautiful collarbone peeking out from the neckline.

Lu Xiao casually picked up a pen and twirled it between his fingers.

His knuckles were distinct, and faint blue veins slightly protruded on the back of his hand.

A typical nurse’s favorite hand.

No wonder nurses from other departments were always sneaking peeks into Lu Xiao’s room.

“Tutoring me, really?” Lu Xiao’s expression had already returned to normal.

That cold, sinister look from before seemed like my imagination.

“Who are you looking down on?” I retorted, “I’m in the top ten in our grade!”

Then I watched him slowly enunciate.

“Funny, I’m in the top five.”
