Chapter 127: I’m Not Jealous

“Alright, I promise you. As long as you cooperate with me, I won’t hurt you.”

The man nodded. He was in great pain. He scanned the room and couldn’t help but ask, “Do you have any medicine here? I want to treat the wound.”

A troubled look flashed across Cen Pan’s eyes as she shook her head. “This is a hotel. How can there be any medicine? If you want the medicine, I’m afraid you have to go out to buy it.”

The man frowned. “Forget it, I’ll bear with it for a while. Also, I have a few things to tell you. The people chasing me might come and search. You have to think of a way to send them away.”

“Wh-what?” Cen Pan’s face turned pale. She felt an inexplicable sense of pressure. “Who are you and who did you provoke?”

The man didn’t reply. Instead, he said in a more serious tone, “I’m talking to you seriously. I hope you can pay more attention. If I’m discovered, you won’t be spared either. We’re on the same boat.”

Cen Pan was speechless. Why did she feel like she had been dragged down by him? However, at this point in time, there was no way to change the current situation.

Kitten Ye’s safety was the most important. If this man had any ulterior motives, both she and the kitten would be in danger. She gritted her teeth and agreed to this man.

Knock knock knock…

Before Cen Pan could finish preparing herself, someone suddenly knocked on the door. Her expression changed drastically and she felt conflicted.

She exchanged glances with the man. The man said softly, “You should remember what I told you just now. Perform well.”

Cen Pan saw that the man was warning her. She let out a breath and looked determined. “I’ll try my best.”

She quickly arrived at the door and couldn’t help but mutter, “Stop knocking. If you continue knocking, the door will break.”

Cen Pan looked through the peephole and a tall figure entered her sight. It was none other than Ye Xiao!

Cen Pan heaved a sigh of relief. Luckily, it wasn’t a bad person.

She relaxed a little, but then she thought of an important question. This unfamiliar man was still in the room. How could she open the door for Ye Xiao?

If she let Ye Xiao in, he would definitely be curious about what was going on with the unfamiliar man. He might even accuse her of adultry!

The more Cen Pan thought about it, the more panicked she became. Ye Xiao had really come at the wrong time. When she was at home, he didn’t come back but accompanied Fang Yu instead. Now, he came quite quickly.

Seeing Cen Pan’s irritated expression, the man in the room couldn’t help but frown and whisper, “Who’s the person outside?”

Cen Pan blushed. She was a little embarrassed. “It’s my husband. We quarreled and he came out to look for me.”

The man nodded in understanding. “What do you plan to do?”

“I’ll try my best to chase him away. If he doesn’t leave, go in and hide.” Cen Pan pondered for a moment and added, “He’s here to pick me up. We’ll go home. I’ll leave this room to you.”

The man was quite satisfied with Cen Pan’s words and nodded silently.

Ye Xiao kept knocking on the door. When he saw that Cen Pan didn’t reply, he couldn’t help but say, “Pan Pan, open the door. I know you’re inside.”

Cen Pan took a deep breath to calm herself down. “Ye Xiao, why are you here? Aren’t you accompanying Fang Yu?”

“Pan Pan, you’re jealous.” Ye Xiao said with obvious mockery.

Cen Pan snorted lightly and rebuked defiantly, “I’m not jealous. Don’t spout nonsense.”
