Fated to My Billionaire Husband

Chapter 569: Chapter 569 – How Could I Die When You Haven’t_1

She handed the cup to Ruan Tianling, who suddenly flung it to the ground.

Jian Yufei: “….”

Infuriated, Ruan Tianling stood there for several seconds, picked up the cup from the ground, and walked out in silence.

She didn’t understand his outburst, nor did she have the mood to care.

After Ruan Tianling left, he didn’t come back.

Midday, Aunt Li came to clean the room; Jian Yufei tried to get her to assist her, but Aunt Li was adamant—she would not betray Master.

Thinking about it, it made sense. If Ruan Tianling didn’t trust Aunt Li, he wouldn’t have let her take care of her.

The bedroom temperature was maintained at thirty-six degrees Celsius, human body normal temperature.

Even without shoes and wearing only a thin dress, Jian Yufei didn’t feel cold.

She sat hugging her knees on the bed, staring blankly at the sky outside the protective net, her gaze vacant.

In the afternoon, Aunt Li brought in food for her to eat.

The bowl and chopsticks were still plastic, with two dishes and a soup: stir-fried green vegetables, stir-fried beef, and a soup of pork ribs and kelp.

The meat was separated from the ribs, leaving no bones.

Jian Yufei wanted to scoff. Were they afraid she would swallow a bone and commit suicide?

Not to mention that this wasn’t a feasible way to die. Even if she could die this way, she wouldn’t choose such a painful death. If she wanted to stop living, it would be best to end her life instantly. She was afraid of pain, she didn’t want to suffer again before death.

Jian Yufei quietly finished her meal, and Aunt Li cleared everything and left.

She sat for a while and then got off the bed to wash up in the bathroom. The chain on her wrist accompanied her constantly, clinking every time she moved, reminding her of the humiliation she was enduring.

Ruan Tianling only returned at night. He entered the living room, and Aunt Li reported Jian Yufei’s condition to him.

“Master, Miss Jian seems to be in good spirits. She’s eating and not causing an uproar. Quite quiet.”

Hearing this, Ruan Tianling furrowed his brow.

The quieter she was, the more uneasy he was, fearing she might do something drastic.

“I see.”

Ruan Tianling moved upstairs. Approaching the door, he felt a certain heaviness in his heart.

He was afraid to face her yet yearned to see her. Ever since meeting her, his heart had been in a constant state of contradiction.

Eventually, he pushed the door open and walked in. Jian Yufei was curled up on the bed, back to him, motionless.

Relieved to see her okay, Ruan Tianling let out a breath.

“Want to read? I can bring you some books” He sat down next to her, asking her in a soft voice.

With her eyes closed, Jian Yufei gave no response, as if she were asleep.

But he knew she was awake. She was just closing her eyes, unwilling to see him.

“Or would you like to watch a movie or TV?” @@novelbin@@

“….”

“Would you like to go downstairs for a walk?”

“….”

Unable to resist, Ruan Tianling placed his finger under her nose. Jian Yufei’s eyes snapped open, startled, he drew back his hand.

“Don’t worry, I won’t die,” Jian Yufei looked at him, her tone indifferent. “You haven’t died. Why would I die?”

She wanted to see him die first, then consider her own death.

Ruan Tianling understood her meaning and a smirk played on the corner of his mouth, “You’re right, if I haven’t died yet, how can you die?”

They were expressing completely different sentiments.

She wished for his death, while he hoped she wouldn’t die.

Not having the will to decipher his words, Jian Yufei closed her eyes again.

Ruan Tianling watched her for a while, then went to his study to work.
