Chapter 717: Chapter 717 Break Up
The thunderstorm woke her up.
It wasn’t fully light yet; the night sky was tinged with early grey. Thunderstorms, with their intimidating lightning and thunder, reminded her of those fierce, heavy downpours.
Lightning streaked across the night, then the rumbling thunder made the air quiver.
She lazily leaned into An Zhiyuan’s embrace, counting the seconds between the lightning and thunder. The storm weaved a symphony around them, truly magnificent.
She felt a keen sense of vitality and profound peace, as if she was waiting for something. Yesterday, by its definition, had passed, but it seemed as though there was a chasm they had crossed between them, binding their emotions even more closely.
She turned her head slightly and saw the man she imagined to be asleep looking at her with a tender, lingering gaze, making her wonder if he had watched her all night like that.
"Morning!"
She leaned in for a good morning kiss, his stubble prickling her delicate skin.
An Zhiyuan wrapped his arms around her lazily, "Morning!"
She was aware, under the covers, that they were both naked; it was dangerous like this.
Especially with a man in the morning.
"I have something to tell you!"
She pushed against his approaching chest, her cheeks turning slightly red.
"Let’s talk about it later..."
An Zhiyuan liked seeing Bai Xiao’s shy demeanor! This version of her was entirely different from her wildness last night.
Next time, he could maybe seduce her to drink alone; he might get the queen he desired.
"Husband..." The drawn-out tone was soul-stirringly charming.
An Zhiyuan let her go reluctantly, his head resting against the headboard, not really letting her go much, as his long legs were still tightly entwined with hers, "Go ahead."
It seemed he intended to continue after she finished speaking.
Flashes of last night darted through Bai Xiao’s mind; the fierce need and her tearful, pitiful pleas for mercy.
Too vivid.
Unleashing that beast again would mean she would certainly suffer.
"The Dean has offered me a spot for advanced study at Medical University, and I’ll likely be leaving in a couple of days."
She spoke hurriedly, and sure enough, the hand that was roaming around her paused, then he sat up and looked at her seriously.
"Really?"
Yu Shaohua, the bastard, had just acknowledged Bai Xiao and now wanted to send her away.
This was a plot to separate husband and wife.
Just last night, he had seriously considered wanting more time to be with Bai Xiao; their honeymoon phase hadn’t even ended yet.
Bai Xiao nodded obediently, her smile innocent, "Really, husband, I want to go to Medical University. You know how much I regret not having been to university." She held onto An Zhiyuan’s neck, nestling in his embrace, expressing her wish.
An Zhiyuan sighed. Yes, Bai Xiao’s regret.
"That’s too soon though!"
He was irked by Yu Shaohua’s scheme, not considering how long the separation would be for them as a couple.
"Ayuan, it’s in Modu. If you miss me, you can come visit, and I’ll be back for holidays. It’s just two years! It’ll pass quickly, and I’ll finish the course as fast as I can so that we can be reunited. Alright?" She genuinely wanted to study hard and delve into what other medical applications her special ability might have.
After the landmine and bullet incidents, she’d had new ideas. Perhaps, she could showcase even more brilliant capabilities of her special ability without being detected. What she needed was an opportunity to gain close proximity to medical knowledge.
What else could An Zhiyuan say? His wife’s wish was naturally his to fulfill.
