The Whole Internet is Shipping Me with My Ex-Boyfriend-Chapter 372: Got it, Baby Will Remember
Dao An walked over to the sink and turned on the faucet.
The sound of rushing water filled the entire bathroom, especially clear.
After Dao An left, he casually closed the bathroom door, leaving Sheng Yi standing there unable to keep still, her fangirl expressions coming online as she couldn’t help but exclaim, "Dao An is simply the best boyfriend ranking number one, no objections accepted."
Unfortunately, Sheng Yi understood that Dao An had no interest in her.
Dao An would never like a starlet like her; he had always maintained a relaxed and composed demeanor in front of her, keeping a distant and mild manner, never offending her, not even sharing jokes, because he respected her too much.
If Dao An ever gave her a different kind of touch, Sheng Yi would overthink it, but it never happened. Dao An always maintained a good distance from her, and carrying her to the bathroom earlier was purely a gentlemanly act.
The occasional care and help he showed were all because of Yuanyuan.
"Ah, be content, Sheng Yi." She wondered who would be so lucky in the future to become the girl Dao An holds in his heart.
She resolved things quickly.
After finishing, she flushed and then slowly shuffled over to the sink, the water from the faucet still flowing, the sound covering up the awkward sounds from the bathroom, thanks to Dao An’s thoughtfulness.
As her hands rinsed under the water, her cheeks grew warm as she suddenly remembered the moment when her hand brushed against Dao An’s chest when he set her down earlier.
Just that once.
She craved for more.
Dao An is way too self-disciplined!!!
As a business elite, he must be extraordinarily busy daily. Who would have thought he’d still have the time to maintain his physique, with such a good feel to his pecs and well-developed biceps, exuding an aura of hormones.
Really want to touch again... Oh damn, what are you thinking, Sheng Yi, you foolish girl?
Someone as noble and upright as Dao An, how could you covet him?!
Rein in your claws.
Hide away your romantic notions.
Don’t covet!
Remembered that?
Yes, baby remembered.
Sheng Yi solemnly advised herself, smiling in the mirror like a silly deer.
She slowly moved to the door, pressed down the handle and opened it.
Although Dao An was outside, he was still a few meters away from the bathroom door. He just stood there, sideways in the faint light and shadow. Seeing him from this angle, Sheng Yi found his figure tall and towering, she couldn’t help but recall, what had she warned herself about in the bathroom mirror just now??
Forgotten!
"Are you ready?"
He walked over and stopped a meter away from her, still maintaining a gentlemanly distance without an inch more.
Sheng Yi nodded, saying, "I’m ready, sorry for troubling you, Dao An."
"No trouble, Miss Sheng Yi is too polite." Dao An said, with a tinge of helplessness in his voice.
Sheng Yi didn’t notice that trace of helplessness.
When Dao An asked her, "Do you need me to carry you back to the hospital bed?"
Need to!!
This sentence remained in Sheng Yi’s mind.
But with so much nonsense in her head, she worried she might act inappropriately towards Dao An, extending her claws towards him. Forget it, for the sake of Dao An’s reputation, she decided to walk herself.
She shook her head, with a downcast face, saying, "I can walk over myself, just as a little exercise."
There was a glimmer of desolation in Dao An’s eyes, he responded with a hum and didn’t say anything further, making way.
Indeed, she was resistant to his closeness, disliking any physical contact with him.
So, Dao An could only stand quietly to the side, watching Sheng Yi slowly inch her way back to her nest... her bed like a snail.
She sat at the edge of the hospital bed, kicking off one shoe, slowly taking off her slipper with the other foot.
Sheng Yi removed her slippers slowly, but when she noticed Dao An approaching, she quickly kicked off her slipper.
"Ow..." It hurt quite a bit.
Sheng Yi’s entire face scrunched up, if it were outside, her devoted fans would definitely grab cameras and zoom in on her face, taking lots of photos, making them into emoticons to post in her Weibo comment section.
Indeed, the devoted fans nowadays are even more formidable than antis, creating various ugly photos of their idols, walking the path of antis, leaving no path for the antis.
Dao An saw Sheng Yi enduring the pain, kicking off her slippers, his brow furrowed, not saying anything.
She truly rejected his contact.
Even though he had known for a while, never disturbed or expressed his feelings, seeing her obvious rejection still left him somewhat lonely.
Sheng Yi said, "Dao An, I’m okay."
She even gave a thumbs up to Dao An, "No problem at all, you can leave now."
Dao An nodded with a smile, then asked, "What do you want to eat tomorrow?"
Sheng Yi, surprised, asked, "Are you coming tomorrow?"
Dao An said, "If you don’t want me to come..."
"Then don’t come." Being alone with him, if they spent too much time together, she’d dream about it, and definitely couldn’t suppress her inner restlessness, reaching out with her claws towards him.
She guessed Dao An approached just now was to help her with her shoes.
Just helping her put on shoes made her so embarrassed, let alone helping her take them off, it would be too mortifying.
Dao An is a business elite in the field of fame and fortune, with just a wave of the hand he controls deals worth billions, how could he use those hands just to help her put on and take off shoes. If it weren’t because of Yuanyuan, he wouldn’t have needed to do so, thus Sheng Yi naturally felt embarrassed.
Two different thoughts, each thinking their own.
Seeing her refusal, Dao An just smiled slightly, reminding her before leaving, "Take good rest, I’ll visit another day."
It’s another day, not tomorrow.
Sheng Yi also felt quite lonely, when Dao An was with her, time passed really fast, it was enjoyable too, as Dao An was well-read, experienced, could easily carry on any conversation, talk about anything, and patiently listen to her ramblings.
She nodded slowly, "Alright, drive safely on your way back."
"Mm."
Once Dao An left, Sheng Yi boredly turned on the television.
As soon as the TV was on, she saw her face on the screen, the channel was broadcasting her ancient idol drama from two years ago, it’s a time-travel love story, with a decent viewership that got nominated for a good award.
What exact award it was, Sheng Yi couldn’t quite remember, she’d won many awards in the past two years.
Only recently has she started to go downhill again.
Indeed, many in the entertainment industry could rise to fame, quite a few could remain popular for a while, but those who could stay evergreen, one could count them on their fingers, just a few.
If she cooled off, she could return home and continue being a privileged lady.
While watching TV, Sheng Yi intended to appreciate her past acting skills, but she overlooked that once she had moved past a stage, old things seemed tiring, her previous acting seemed so unnatural, she watched until she fell asleep.
More than an hour later, Dao An returned to the hospital, back to Sheng Yi’s room.
He came back with a bag in hand.
Specifically bought by him.
The hospital room spacious, Dao An turned on a floor lamp upon entering, afraid that if Sheng Yi was asleep, the main light would disturb her rest. As expected, Sheng Yi was indeed asleep, and soundly at that.
Dao An stepped over to the bedside, watching the person asleep on the bed, calling softly, "Miss Sheng Yi?"
No response.
Called once, no response.
Sheng Yi was indeed deep in sleep, her sleep always good; she wasn’t even awoken by the sound of Dao An entering, nor did she hear him calling her name.
Unless startled awake.
Dao An gradually approached the bedside, this time no longer addressing her distantly as ’Miss Sheng Yi,’ but as the name he kept in his heart, "Yiyi."
