Chapter 1036: How am I incomparable to her?

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

"Ge Ge… you're such a nice person, so you'll definitely find happiness someday…" she mumbled softly. Probably due to her best friend's sleeping look being too contagious or the sunlight feeling so warm, which made one feel sleepy, she unknowingly leaned on her bed and fell asleep.

These two, who grew up together, fell deeply asleep under this warm sunlight.

When Tang Xiaoyu woke up again, she saw someone she was not expecting here—

"Zhe-Zhengrong?!"

Seconds after waking up and yawning, she noticed some movements in the room.

Turning around, she quickly spotted a man in a dark-blue, checkered suit sitting on the sofa; his long, slender fingers were flying across the keyboard.

This was the man she had been on the phone earlier.

"W-What are you doing here?!"

All her sleepiness dispersed instantly at the sight of the man.

"I said I'll be here in an hour. It's already been two hours." He informed her evenly in his low voice.

The woman quickly got what he meant by this.

"T-Two hours?!"

She raised her wrists to look at the time on her watch and cringed.

She had unknowingly slept for so long!

She swept her gaze on the bed and saw that her best friend was still sleeping soundly! Moreover, she showed no signs of waking up soon.

Amid her worry, the man reached her side.

"Is she all right? Why isn't she waking up even after sleeping for so long?" he asked in a voice filled with worry.

Tang Xiaoyu raised his head and could trace the worry in his stoic expression.

Even when she was sick and hospitalized back then, she had not seen this sort of worry on his face.

In contrast, he had only seen Pei Ge for the first time, yet…

At that moment, her heart was filled with bitterness and felt the energy drain from her body.

She was even a little jealous of her best friend.

Clearly, she was the one who loved him… had done so much for him, and even sacrificed a lot for him, yet she never seemed to exist in this man's eyes.

"It's fine. Her physical condition is quite good now." She took a deep breath. When she turned to look at him again, a smile was pasted on her lips.

"Haven't I told you already? Since she can eat and sleep normally, her body should be fine!"

Forget it… Don't think about this anymore. As long as you put your heart and soul into it, you'll get your due returns eventually.

One day, this man will see all that you've done for him. He'll definitely see you eventually!

"Is that so? Has the doctor checked her today? What did the doctor say?"

Alas, her words were not enough to reassure the man, and his frown remained deep as he spoke in a voice filled with suspicion.please visit pαпᵈα-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

"The doctor didn't come to check her today, but I can tell that Ge Ge's body is alright, so—" You don't need to worry much.

She was cut off mid-speech by him, though.

pαпᵈα-noνɐ1.сoМ From the moment he had appeared by her side, this was the first time he had placed his sight on her, yet his eyes were filled with reprimand and coldness.

"Are you the doctor? Is she fine just because you say so? Why didn't you let the doctor check her when she regained consciousness?"

Although his tone could not be considered cold, even his light admonition was enough to crush her heart.

"…"

She stared at him blankly, never having expected him to speak like this to her.

She had also not expected that, when she and her friend were before this man, his treatment to them both would be like day and night.

Probably noting her incredulity, Gu Zhengrong lightly sighed and softly apologized to her.

"I'm sorry; I was too agitated."

He knew that Pei Ge was a stranger to him, yet surprisingly, once she appeared in front of him in person—neither his imagination nor a photo of her, his emotions would be this uncontrollable.

This was something… he had never experienced before.

"I really suspect whether you are my boyfriend or my best friend's…"

Being unreconciled with this, the woman could no longer suppress her bitterness. The loving admiration in her eyes was totally replaced by a wave of volatile emotions.

"Xiaoyu…"

He frowned, his gaze filled with conflicting emotions.

"Zhengrong, were you aware of everything a long time ago? Did you know from back then that I wasn't actually the Chinese girl, the Angel in your heart, who had sponsored you…"

She sucked in a deep breath and kept her tears at bay as she spoke with a quivering voice.

"This isn't the time for this…"

The man regarded the woman sleeping in bed cautiously. Clearly, he did not want to discuss this issue here with his girlfriend, which could disrupt the woman's sleep.

Unfortunately, his girlfriend, who was overcome with emotions by his cold attitude, cared not about this.

She only wanted to lay everything out in the open right now.

"Yes, I lied to you. I indeed lied, but I have a clear conscience! Do you know? While Pei Ge did sponsor your studies, I did, too! She only wrote the first two letters, but everything after that was me!

"I gave up so much for you. I loved you wholeheartedly, but not once did you see me! Why?! Can you tell me why this is? How am I incomparable to her?!"

Her bellow was filled with helplessness; the emotion in her voice was too deep.

None of this touched the man, though. Instead, he showed censure at her outburst.

"Xiaoyu—" You are being too loud.

He did not manage to complete his words as he was cut off by his girlfriend again.

"I'm not done talking yet! I don't wanna keep acting like a fool, or else I will definitely stifle myself to death!"
