Chapter 44: Shen Shaobai, I’m in Pain
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Due to her weak body, Weiai went back to sleep not long after regaining consciousness.

She slept for a long time.

When she woke up, it was already night time.

The room was dark and the surroundings appeared blurry, making the whole room feel empty and lonely.

“Ahhhhh—”

Suddenly, a scream could be heard.

Weiai was shocked and she sat up from the bed.

Not far in front, there was a long slender figure standing in front of the windows. He was like a shadow, and it was unclear how long he had been there for. He slowly turned himself around when he heard that she had woken up, but all he did was turn around, he did not move forward.

From a distance, his voice was dull and he sounded indifferent. “Are you awake?”

At that moment, Weiai realized that it was Shen Shaobai.

At that moment, she did not know how to reply, but very soon, she regained her senses and focused her attention on herself. She tugged at her wounds when she suddenly sat up previously and pain surged through her body.

While feeling pain, she felt a grudge at the same time.

Since he was unable to see, day and night had no difference for him.

However, this was not the same for everyone else.

Young Master Shen, is it really appropriate to scare people at such a time of the day!

She thought about how Ning Yuan reminded her that she could take some painkillers that he had left on the table if she woke up in pain. However, how was she supposed to find the painkillers in such a dark environment?!

“Young Master Shen, can you… turn on the light?”

Weiai could not help but ask softly.

However, in Shen Shaobai’s ears, he was reminded of his eyes and replied coldly, “Do you not have limbs?”

As expected, she should not have asked for help from the evil Shen Shaobai!

Without turning on the lights to take the painkillers, she really could not bear the pain.

At that moment, Weiai decided that she should rely on herself. She moved slowly, lifted her blankets and tried to get off the bed. The whip injuries were all over her body, and every movement she made caused extreme pain in her body.

With much effort, she managed to sit on the edge of the bed and wore the slippers.

However, perhaps it was because she was running a low fever and had not recovered fully, she fell to the ground the moment she got up from the bed.

“Bang—”

There was a loud sound when her body came into contact with the ground.

“Ouch.”

Weiai inhaled as the pain worsened.

She sat on the cold ground in her thin clothes with injuries all over the body. No matter how she thought about it, Weiai felt pathetic. She looked up and saw that Shen Shaobai did not move a single inch and suddenly felt wronged.

At that moment, she recalled what Ning Yuan said previously.

He said, “Shaobai is a proud person and he does not accept any form of rejection! Why don’t you try to go along with him when interacting with him, he is not that hard of a person to get along with.”

Did that indirectly mean that she needed to… act cute towards Shen Shaobai?

The sudden thought of “acting cute” repelled Weiai.

However, what if this really worked?

Thinking about this, Weiai frowned and was in a dilemma. At the same time, Shen Shaobai remained in the same spot and got annoyed. He did not know what was causing the annoyance, it was just that as a blind person, his hearing was very sensitive.

Just before that, he clearly heard that she fell to the ground and right after that, there was no sound at all. He thought about her serious injuries, was she hurt again?!

Just as he thought about this, Shen Shaobai pressed his fingers on the lighting remote control and threw aside after that.

*Click*

The room lit up, making it look like daytime.

Weiai subconsciously raised her arm to shield her eyes from the bright light. At the same time, through her fingers, she saw the man walking towards her.

After that, he bent over and tried to reach around to find his way towards her.

“What are you doing?”

Right before he was about to touch her, Weiai could not help but ask.

At that moment, she clearly saw that his expression froze on his face. “Xia Weiai, are you alright?!”

His tone was filled with impatience.

“I…”

“Why didn’t you make any sound even though you are fine?”

Before she could reply, he asked in a cold tone again.

This time around, Weiai felt very wronged. Her eyes turned red and she was like a frightened rabbit. She looked at the man above her and said softly, “I am in pain…”

Just like a child who was grieving about being bullied at home, she said in a tearful voice, “Shen Shaobai, I am in pain.”
