You Are My Gravity - Chapter 33

Chapter 33: She Needs A Hug

The incident caught Qin Se off guard. She couldn’t react to it and could only watch as the car rushed in her direction.

At that moment, there was only one thought that lingered in her mind—She was doomed! But she hadn’t gotten her hands on the money and hadn’t even found herself a good man yet!

She watched as the car came careening toward her. As it drew closer to Qin Se, suddenly, her entire body was pressed into someone’s chest. Together, their body rolled over to the side.

At that moment, the world turned upside down in front of Qin Se’s eyes, and she heard sounds of people shouting and screaming.

Then, she felt her body fall heavily to the ground. However, she was wrapped so tightly in the arms that embraced her that when she fell, she only felt the shock but didn’t sense any pain.

The hands which held onto her were firm, and the chest was not exactly warm, but it was pretty reassuring. The person’s body emitted a cold mint fragrance that was combined with a faint sandalwood scent.

That hug made her feel at ease, and it was so safe that she wanted to rely on it. It was something she could put her trust in…

It was the kind of feeling that she had never gotten from Shen Rui nor any other man.

It was the kind of feeling that Qin Se could not bear to part with.

Just… why did this scent feel… well… sort of familiar?

Just as Qin Se was still in a daze and had yet to return to her senses, a slightly anxious voice rang out from the top of her head.

“Are you okay?”

Qin Se finally returned to her senses and got a good look at the person who had saved her life. The corners of her mouth twitched. “You…”

Her savior pinched her face. “Is there anything wrong?”

Qin Se felt that her body was fine, but her heart was hurting a little. “You…”

“Where are you hurting?”

“I…”

“Did you hit your head?”

He frowned. His exceptionally beautiful and always excessively cold and distant face had a hint of worry written all over it today.

He seemed to murmur to himself, “She was already a fool… but now that she has hit her head…”

Qin Se finally erupted and roared, “You’re the foolish one! Your whole family is stupid…”

After letting it all out, she realized that what she had just done was wrong. This man was still her lifesaver. It was wrong for her to yell at him like this.

Qin Se hurriedly bit her tongue and didn’t utter another word.

Gu Jingyuan’s face returned to his normal facial paralysis. “Well, it seems like your brain is just fine.”

Qin Se ground her teeth and stared at Gu Jingyuan. The feeling of being emotionally touched for her life being saved and the kind of feeling where she felt reluctant to leave his embrace was all watered down in an instant. Still, she was very grateful toward him.

Qin Se was a little embarrassed by his gaze, so she cleared her throat and said, “Of course my brain is working just fine! I… I just… have a sore foot.”

“Your feet hurt…” Gu Jingyuan repeated after her before casting a glance at her chest.

Qin Se was stunned. She hurriedly defended herself, “It’s true that I am having a sore foot! There’s absolutely no underlying meaning! You are overthinking it!”

Gu Jingyuan nodded. “Oh, I didn’t think much about it either.”

Qin Se remembered what had happened last time, and her face instantly reddened. “There is truly no hidden meanings… my foot just hurts a little…”

It was true that her feet were sore, but the more she tried to explain it, the more misplaced it felt.

“Well…”

Gu Jingyuan bent down and picked her up.

They were surrounded by a crowd of people, and Qin Se whispered urgently, “Hey, I’m fine! You can put me down…”

Gu Jingyuan replied, “Don’t be shy. I know all about it.”

Qin Se glared at him, “What the hell do you know?! What am I shy about?!”

Gu Jingyuan glanced down at her before saying gently, “I know. You’re asking for a hug…”
