CHAPTER 28
Don’t Know the Time
An Chuxia feels drowsy but her mind is still very clear.
That is… .
“There’s a circle, and that’s a lap. I’ll finish.” She says it in a little whisper because she is so tired. She can almost feel her legs shivering involuntarily.
Although An Chuxia says the words softly, Han Qilu hears it all. He wonders what did she eat growing up to make her stubborn to this abnormal level.
It is obvious she is about to collapse, but she still tries to bravely finish. Doesn’t she feel distressed for herself?
In Han Qilu’s eyes, An Chuxia thinks her footsteps are gaining momentum towards the end. In reality, her running speed is closer to walking.
“Hey!” Han Qilu calls out. Despite being too proud to reveal their relations, he won’t turn his back on the woman in front of him. Especially, An Chuxia … . He does not know what he should think or feel about her. He knows he is annoyed at An Chuxia, and even hates her. But her expression leaves him utterly confused.
But at this moment, he only wants her to stop.
His heart convinces him to take a few steps to get ahead of her, call her attention and force her to see him.
“An Chuxia, I don’t care who made you run but I am here now. I said you do not have to run.” He yanks on her elbow to make her look at him. His tone, stiff. He is embarrassed and cannot say the words with confidence.
An Chuxia squints her eyes and looks ahead of her. The double image slowly morphs into only one person. In front of her is someone she absolutely didn’t want to see – Han Qilu.
Her stubbornness emerges. She moves her lips and coldly says, “Thank you for your kindness. I have a lap to finish. Please do not bother me.”
