Chapter 292 - We apply make up first, and gets dressed later.

Feng Yi Lan's brows jutted together when she heard the man calling her back with the same endearment he used to use before when things were good between them. To respond or give any retaliation, she needed her brain to function properly first. But her heart inside her c.h.e.s.t was just overpowering all her other senses.

Her delusion of overconfidence was shattering … toughness was breaking. Letting her realize, how wrong she was there to think that she has successfully moved on from all her pains and heartaches?

How wrong she was to think that even after such a long time, all that had happened in that past year no longer can affect her? That her heart had long given up the effects sand control Qi Shuai once had on it.

But now seeing just a mere addressing title making her heart fasten its pace, she knew how delusional she had been with such overconfidence.

"You … you better stop calling me like that! There is no way I feel the title to be fitting me. It is definitely not fitting my personality, rather it sounds so absurd" She said, nettled. Her brows pulled into a frown.

Qi Shuai almost let out a chuckle, knowing what effects he was having on her. No one knew but he was thanking all his lucky stars in his heart again and again. He was already fearing that might be, he had lost his chance with her. That might be, he will not be able to get her back the way she has been with him before.

But now seeing her cute, fl.u.s.tered expressions, he knew that there was still a chance to win her back. To mend all the wrongs, he has done to her in the past.

"Really? You find it absurd? Then why are your cheeks saying the other way, Princess? Every time I am calling you with the name, it is just turning a shade darker in red?" He said and Yi Lan's hands instantly went to feel her cheeks.

Though she was feeling it getting hot a little long time back, she did not realize that it could come to people's notice too. She wanted to chide her internal self for being so embarrassing. But …

Couldn't she control all these abnormalities in her?

"Who is getting fl.u.s.tered? This is just some blush I have applied on my cheeks to change my weak, frail patient look from this hospital. I could not go out like this. And am I not getting discharged?" She said, trying her best to defend the redness of her cheeks. How embarrassing!

Qi Shuai looked at her and then gave an understanding nod. It was his good time to retreat. He couldn't overstep things on the very first day of his decision. "Ohh! Is it that way? Sigh! seems like I was reading too much into the picture."

"Yes, you definitely were!" Yi Lan finally felt relieved that the man had accepted her reasons, otherwise it would have been really tough for her to argue on the topic when she clearly had no good reasons for defence.

But she jolted at once when suddenly heard the man question again. "So?"

"So, what?" she questioned back, not knowing what the man was asking about.

The man too quirked his brows up in amus.e.m.e.nt as he said, "Didn't you say, you were putting up the makeup because you were getting ready for discharge from the hospital? Then did you already complete it?"

Biting her lower lip, she realized her own dumbness. She quickly agreed, "Yes, of course, I have completed my makeup. It has already been done before you entered the room. I am all ready to leave now!"

Wrinkling his brows, with a little pretence of confusion, he asked, "Are you sure?". His eyes went to look the woman up to down with some thought of contemplation.

"What do you mean?" Yi Lan asked, not understanding the meaning quite well.

"It's a hospital nightgown, you are wearing at this moment. I doubt that you would like to go out in these clothes", Qi Shuai said and the woman instantly realized her another grave mistake.

Feeling bullied, Yi Lan huffed out as she said, "We, women are like this. We apply makeup before getting ourselves locked into our dresses. So don't laugh at me when it's you who don't know the things properly".

"Fine, fine! Pardon me for my lack of knowledge, my Princess. From now on, I will try to keep all this in my memory" He said instantly surrendering in front of her.

Finally, Yi Lan felt relieved. But she was not satisfied yet. He had bullied her, now it was her turn. She just needs something that could also be a challenge for him and make him fl.u.s.tered, in the same way, he has made her a few moments before.

"Fine! You get yourself changed first. I have already completed hospital formalities. Once you are ready, we can leave together" Qi Shuai said, as he looked at her then stood up to leave the room, almost forgetting that he does not need to as the room already had a separate bathroom. And Yi Lan could always go there to change her clothes.

But then suddenly something stuck into the woman's head. Her lips pulled up into a small devilish, lopsided grin. "Ow … Ouch!" She let out a cry of pain, drooping her eyes shut partially.

Qi Shuai's steps immediately halted as he turned to look back at her with some worried eyes. Quickly strutting back to her, he asked with a worried laced voice, "What happened? Is it painful? Should I call Dr Collin?" His fingers already tracing her ankles lightly, trying to soothe the pain.

Yi Lan's breath got hitched for a second when saw his once attentive self again. But then pulling herself together, she said, "No, there is no need to call the doctor. I am fine. It's just that I moved with a sudden jerk and twisted my ankle in the process."

"You should have been a little careful, Yi Lan! You know your ankle is not in the best condition and you need to be careful with it" He said with a little emotional exhaustion. Seemed like her little scream of pain was enough to make him all work up with several emotions of the heart.

"It wasn't deliberate. It happened on its own", she said with a pout and the man instantly shook his head at her.

"Okay I got that but now keep that in mind and don't rush" He advised and turned back to leave. But halted when felt her hold on his wrist.

Turning again around her, he raised his brows of askance to which the woman simply replied. "I think I would need your help!"
