Transmigrated as My Best Friend's Ex

71. I Only Love Xu

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“I will go to the hotel with you.” He didn’t intend to take chances. He wanted to live. “You seem quite familiar with this hospital.” Did this hospital belong to Nancheng family?

Nancheng Lie rolled his eyes at Li Qinghao. He was not going to tell Li Qinghao that after he had found out that Keqi was not Xu, he had drunk too much and been sent to this hospital for treatment of alcoholism.

Damn it! His heart ached uncontrollably at the thought of Xu. He couldn’t wait another minute, let alone four months.

They got off the taxi. Nancheng Lie took a look at Li Qinghao, gritted his teeth and picked Li Qinghao up. In the past, no matter how close they were, Li Qinghao never had mood swings. But now he knew that Nancheng Lie loved him very deeply. He could no longer remain calm. He rested his head against Nancheng Lie’s shoulder looking up at Nancheng Lie’s chiselled, handsome face with his heart beating wildly. For the first time Li Qinghao felt that he was enchanted by Nancheng Lie’s charm.

Nancheng Lie carried Li Qinghao into the elevator and snorted, “Why are you looking at me like that?” This guy was so weird.

Li Qinghao came to himself. He was stunned for a second and surprised to find Nancheng Lie’s face flushing red.

Nancheng Lie warned, “I said, don’t look at me like that.” He found that his heart raced uncontrollably under Li Qinghao’s gaze.

It was only when he faced Xu that he had such a feeling.

However, his words were of no effect. Li Qinghao kept his eyes fixed on Nancheng Lie with a meaningful look on his face, his arms tightly around Nancheng Lie’s neck.

“If you go on like this, I’ll leave you alone here.” Nancheng Lie looked away, but the next second he couldn’t help but glance at Li Qinghao out of the corners of his eyes. Although he was threatening him in a childish way, his strong arms gave Li Qinghao a sense of security.

Lie…

At this moment, Li Qinghao was hooked on Nancheng Lie’s gentleness.

So… Li Qinghao decided that he would never leave Nancheng Lie alone in the world, no matter what happened. He had a feeling that without him Nancheng Lie would lose his will to live.

“Don’t look at me like that.” Nancheng Lie’s voice became husky. Hearing what he said, Li Qinghao’s eyes grew warmer, brighter and more appreciative. Nancheng Lie felt that the innocent expression on Li Qinghao’s face tugged at his heartstrings and the beast of desire hidden deep in his body slowly woke up.

Li Qinghao refused to take his eyes off Nancheng Lie. He was really a silly but lovable man…

Nancheng Lie took Li Qinghao to his hotel room. Considering that Li Qinghao needed to be taken care of, Nancheng Lie thought that they’d better stay together. He had to ensure the safety of Li Qinghao. He would never know Xu’s whereabouts if Li Qinghao were caught by Princess Frise.

The thought of Han Mingxu made Nancheng Lie upset. He put Li Qinghao on the sofa and went to the bathroom himself. After a while, there came the sound of water flowing.

‘Everything was fine just now. Why did he suddenly change his tune?’ Li Qinghao was confused.

Meanwhile, in the bathroom Nancheng absent-mindedly looked at himself in the mirror, his face glowing with health and radiating vitality. Obviously, he was much better now. He always knew what he wanted, so when he was very young, he confirmed that he loved Han Mingxu. But now… He turned to look back and happened to meet Li Qinghao’s eyes. Nancheng Lie immediately looked away.

“Nancheng Lie… Nancheng Lie…” Li Qinghao was calling Nancheng Lie in an anxious voice, but there was no response from Nancheng Lie. Li Qinghao blushed with embarrassment. He needed to pee, but Nancheng Lie turned a deaf ear to his call for help. “Lie…” There was still no response.

Li Qinghao sighed. He knew Nancheng Lie well. This chap was really difficult to deal with. Now he must be stuck in a puzzle.

Li Qinghao gripped the arms of the sofa, slowly stood up, and then took a few steps, feeling that his leg was not much painful. He raised his head and found Nancheng Lie standing in front of him with a face as black as thunder.

“Can’t you just be obedient?” Nancheng Lie asked coldly.

“Yes, I can,” Li Qinghao replied quickly. He felt he’d been wronged. “But we can’t go against our physiological needs.”

“You…”

“Don’t you think so?” Li Qinghao raised a questioning eyebrow. He suddenly felt it very interesting to try his patience.

Nancheng Lie watched Li Qinghao quietly. After a long while, he finally said, “I think you misunderstood me.”

“What?”

“Don’t flatter yourself. You’re nothing to me.”

“What do you mean by that?” Li Qinghao was not angry at Nancheng Lie’s harsh words.

“I… I only love Xu, you know. We’ve reached an agreement. I will wait four months and, in the meantime, I can help you with everything. But…” Nancheng Lie raised Li Qinghao’s chin with his finger and continued, “If I have done something that caused misunderstanding, I apologize to you.”

Li Qinghao was amused at Nancheng Lie’s words and gave a little chuckle.

“I’m sorry. Maybe it’s because I feel empty and hollow that I played a joke on you. I know you don’t like this game. I’m really sorry. But now I really want to relieve myself. Can you help me please? I want to go to the bathroom.” Li Qinghao put on the mask of detachment again. His voice was gentle and consoling, and he acted like a well-spoken gentleman, smiling as if nothing had happened between them.

Nancheng Lie squinted and looked directly into Li Qinghao’s eyes, trying to read his mind. But his eyes were so clear as if his heart contained no evil.
