Chapter 174 One More Time
In an instant, Yan San's eyes darkened, filled with a hidden and unfathomable emotion.
Xi Yu felt uneasy. Yan San's appearance was somewhat similar to the time he went berserk on the secret experimental island, his mind controlled by the surging mental power.
She secretly focused her mental energy on guard against Yan San's sudden attack.
He suddenly raised his hand, picked up a strand of hair that was caught on her face, and then tucked it behind her ear.
Inevitably, his warm fingertips touched her cheek, gently and ticklishly.
"Who exactly is the man you're talking to?" His deep eyes flickered slightly, concealing an unusual emotion that even he himself was unaware of.
"what?"
Xi Yu opened her mouth in a daze. She thought this guy had suddenly gone berserk. Wasn't that right? But why couldn't she understand what he was saying?
"Is he someone so important that you would disregard your own safety and delay the serum injection to keep the appointment?" His gaze grew increasingly dangerous and drew closer to Xi Yu's face, the intense pressure almost crushing her.
Xi Yu was suppressed by the mental power he unconsciously emitted, and the pressure on her increased instantly. She hurriedly circulated her own mental power to resist, but the difference in their levels still put her at a disadvantage.
"What are you talking about? Didn't I say I would go to the hospital for a check-up afterward?" Xi Yu was so angry at his inexplicable stubbornness that she almost vomited blood. Was it really that serious whether she went to the hospital or not?
To Yan San, her words sounded like she was protecting that man, which immediately ignited his fury, making him want to tear that man to pieces!
Xi Yu noticed his gaze growing increasingly intense, and a familiar crimson glint flashed within it. She knew she couldn't let Yan San continue in this emotional state, or his own mental energy would consume his sanity, causing him to go berserk.
She instinctively cupped his cheeks, and before he could react, she slammed her head against his, giving him another solid headbutt!
The violent impact interrupted Yan San's thoughts; he tilted his head back, his mind blank.
Anyone suddenly struck like that would be unable to think straight.
"Ouch—it hurts so much!! Why is your head so hard? Is it filled with rocks or something?!" Xi Yu, who had deliberately bumped into someone, cursed angrily while covering her bright red forehead.
She didn't necessarily have to use her head, but somehow her body subconsciously used that move.
"..." Yan San stared at her silently, his head still reeling from the strong impact.
Seeing her hopping in pain, and the red spot on her forehead starting to swell, Yan San felt sorry for her and gently rubbed it, asking with concern, "Are you alright?"
"Nothing my foot!" Xi Yu angrily slapped him away and yelled disdainfully, "Now that you've calmed down, get out of my way!!"
She was absolutely fed up with this person who would suddenly lose his temper every now and then! So what if he has strong mental fortitude?!
She stormed out, slamming the door behind her, without caring whether Yan San had truly calmed down.
Watching the receding figure, Yan San couldn't help but laugh helplessly. He thought to himself, "Is he really going crazy?"
He hadn't dared to be sure before, but at this moment he finally realized his true feelings for her.
This was genuine affection; when he learned that she was about to meet another man, his first reaction was jealousy.
He had initially coerced her into coming to the capital, partly out of threat, but only so that they could be in the same city.
He wanted her by his side, to look only at him.
