As soon as Mable turned around, she met ir''s deep and dark eyes.


    ir put out his cigarette indifferently. "Get out!"


    "If I go just because you tell me to, wouldn''t that make me look bad?!"


    Mable walked over and sat next to him. She saw at a nce a red and swollen blister on the back of his left hand.


    "Why didn''t you treat your wound?"


    She was about to treat it for him when he put his hand into his pocket.


    "What are you doing? Don''t move!"N?velDrama.Org owns ? this.


    Mable forcefully tugged at his wrist. "It''ll get infected if you don''t take care of it."


    She took out iodine swabs from the medical kit.


    ir stared at her and let her attend to the injury on his hand.


    Mable used a fine needle to pick through the blister, then sterilized it before applying some medicine. Lastly, she wrapped the wound briefly with breathable gauze.


    "ir, I''m sorry."


    Mable''s voice was suddenly heard.


    She lowered her head and did not dare to look up at ir. "When I received your call, I thought you were following me. I was mad, so I ignored you. I didn''t know you went to the hospital to bring me food..." With each word, her tone became softer. However, ir did not say anything.


    It was silent again, and the atmosphere was somewhat oppressive.


    Helpless, Mable looked up at him. "ir-"


    Suddenly, ir pushed her down onto the sofa and hugged her tightly.


    "Mable."


    He paused slightly before asking hoarsely, "Would you not have even looked at me if I didn''t have the Ice Jade Flower?"


    Mable answered, "...Um, not to that extent."


    Although it was true that she was staying by his side for the Ice Jade Flower...

    as entangled with him as she was now.

    "Then tell me, Mabes. What do I have to do to make you fall in love with me again?"


    Mable froze and asked bitterly, "ir, is my love that important?"


    "Very."


    ir buried his head in her neck and took a deep breath.


    Nothing in this world was happier than a love reciprocated.


    Mable did not answer ir''s question. Instead, she asked him, "What about you? Do you love me, ir?"


    ir frowned.


    ''Do you even need to ask?''


    He had done so much for her. Did she not feel anything at all?


    Mable''s heart sank a little when she saw him frown. "Forget it. I shouldn''t have asked."


    ''Why make a fool of myself?''


    ir caressed her face. "Mabes..."


    It was then an iing ringtone interrupted him.


    He impatiently picked up the phone and instantly let go of Mable to get up.


    Mable raised her eyebrow and sat up as well.


    ir was visibly startled for a moment after hearing what the He

    Mable looked at him and vaguely heard a few words.


    "Liv... Whereabouts..."
