Chapter 180: 180: Zhan Lichuan’s ears turned red

Jing Qian continued with the topic.

“Everyone would fall sick, just wait until you get to stand up…” Jing Qian slowly scanned Zhan Lichuan from head to toe and stared at the spot that was now covered with a blanket. “You have such a handsome face as well as a beautiful body figure, I wouldn’t complain about it.”

Jing Qian could swear an oath that when she was saying this, she was only referring to the fact that she would not complain or dislike him just because he was stuck on a sickbed due to a pathological reason. This did not mean that she had agreed to do anything with him or would not dislike him once he was able to stand up. She was only trying to say that since Zhan Lichuan had the height and looks of a handsome man, once he regained his mobility, no one would dare have any complaints regarding him.

However, these words were a huge encouragement to Zhan Lichuan.

The only thing visible on his face, even after being disliked, was a gentle uplift on the edge of his lips. It was as if the ice-cold face that had been perfectly curated by god had been dropped into a hot spring and was slowly melting, exposing a gentle smile on his face.

Even the sexy Adam’s apple on his neck moved.

This was the first time that any woman had declared him as her own in such a domineering and unusual manner, causing his ears to turn red.

Jing Qian obviously noticed Zhan Lichuan’s ears turning red.

This handsome, cold man suddenly had bright, red ears. It was such an interesting, cute combination. Jing Qian found Zhan Lichuan cute with his red ears, but she seemed to have interpreted the situation in the wrong manner.

“What’s wrong? Are you angry at me? Don’t worry. I can promise you that you will be able to stand up. My mouth always speaks the truth.”

Angry?

Zhan Lichuan carefully looked at the little woman who was apologizing to him.

Forget it. If she thought he was angry, that was what he would be.

He initially thought that this woman was definitely good at flirting with men, seeing how she was able to hook up with a robot. However, the results were what he expected. This woman was just a gullible, dumb woman with the features of a vixen.

When Jing Qian noticed that Zhan Lichuan was being very quiet, she assumed that he got angry and she started scratching her head.

She felt that she should have been a little bit more tactful with the words that were coming out of her mouth, which could easily trigger others.

Such a fierce, merciless temperament was not a good match for her graceful, melodious look.

In fact, Zhan Lichuan was a nice person.

He knew about her lover outside, but instead of being angry or jealous about it, he was even secretly helping her.

He first helped her with criticizing Zhan Yihe in front of all the senior executives of the company, even replacing her position as the Artist Director just to get back her role as the first female lead. Then, he even sent men to get rid of the paparazzi that Qin Yi had arranged in front of her house. Now, after learning about the fact that Qin Yi and Jing Lu were still on set, he even removed Zhan Yihe as the Deputy Director of Zhongbo.

Forget about the fact that he was a paralyzed man who was lying on a sickbed and would be gone at any time because of his organs that are failing. Even real husbands who were healthy and fit wouldn’t have been able to stand up for their wives as he did.

Therefore, Jing Qian thought that her actions of putting salt on his wounds went a bit overboard.

“Well… If you don’t believe me, why don’t we bet on it?”

Seeing the apologetic and insecure look in her eyes, which was extremely sincere, the smile on Zhan Lichuan’s face grew.

This woman always acted like a cunning fox in front of others, except for when she was with him and his grandfather. This was a rare opportunity to see such a pure, kind expression on her.

Zhan Lichuan nodded his head and said, “Sure. What would you like to bet on?”

“We shall bet that… You will be able to stand up within a year… No, wait! 6 months!”

After hearing the deadline, Zhan Lichuan’s heart started trembling once again.
