I Break Tycoon's Immune Barrier

Chapter 177: Chapter 177 Nightmare

He Jingyao bent down and gently placed his hand on her forehead.

What exactly was she worried about, feeling uneasy about?

Just then, Su Zixi suddenly trembled lightly and shouted “don’t”, then abruptly opened her eyes and sat up, her large eyes filled with terror! @@novelbin@@

“Zhixi?” He Jingyao’s brow furrowed, and he immediately pulled her into his arms, “What’s wrong, did you have a nightmare?”

Su Zixi stared at him blankly, her eyes too bright, as if she wanted to etch his every inch firmly into her heart.

She shook her head slightly and then threw herself into his embrace, holding him tightly.

He Jingyao smiled faintly and his hot kiss landed on her forehead, carrying a sense of comfort, “It’s okay now, don’t be afraid.”

Su Zixi murmured a soft “mm-hmm”, leaning in his arms, eyes closed, as if she was drawing some kind of strength from him.

Indeed, she had a nightmare. She dreamt that He Jingyao coldly told her that he had never loved her and all he wanted was her body.

In the dream, she was humble and anxious, as if the whole world had collapsed…

Thankfully, that was just a nightmare…

At least… at least for now, he was still very, very good to her, whether he truly loved her or not, she didn’t care.

Yes, she didn’t care.

Su Zixi repeated this to herself as if to brainwash herself, over and over again.

“Zhixi, you are not feeling well,” he said with certainty, “Come on, I will take you home.”

“But…”

“We can take the work home, it won’t be delayed,” he said with a slight smile.

After thinking about it, Su Zixi realized that she probably really wasn’t in the state to stay in the office, so she nodded gently.

…

When they returned to Hades Manor, Li Bo approached, “Young master, Young Mistress. The young master of the Ning Family is getting married at the beginning of next month. The wedding invitation arrived at the house today. Will you be attending?”

He Jingyao’s face darkened slightly, and he looked at Li Bo with a hint of reproach.

Li Bo seemed to suddenly realize his mistake and looked at Su Zixi with some unease.

However, Su Zixi was stunned for two seconds before realizing who the young master of the Ning Family was.

Getting married next month, huh… That’s quite early.

He was going to marry Su Lianxi after all.

But…

“Jingyao, are you going to attend?” Su Zixi asked seriously, “If you think it’s necessary, I’m okay with it.”

She knew that at the level of the He Family and the Ning Family, the interactions between them were always very particular.

He Jingyao watched her quietly for a while and then suddenly smiled, “Of course not.” Turning to Li Bo, he said, “Decline it, I’m not interested.”

Li Bo acknowledged with a yes.

Su Zixi sneaked a glance at He Jingyao, feeling somewhat embarrassed, “Actually, I really don’t mind, I’ve told you before, I have no feelings for Ning Yichen anymore.”

He Jingyao pinched her cheek, “I’m just genuinely not interested, don’t overthink it.”

Su Zixi nodded.

“However, I’ve just realized something,” He Jingyao raised his eyebrows, “We haven’t had a wedding yet, have we?”

Su Zixi was startled.

“I almost forgot, and there hasn’t been a single person to remind me?” He Jingyao huffed in dissatisfaction.

It was normal for him to forget such things, but he found it unconscionable that nobody around them had remembered; it was a dereliction of duty.

A wedding, I hear it’s the most important moment of a woman’s life? He had never brought up the matter; would Su Zixi think he didn’t value it enough?
