Ye Yanfeng’s scarlet lips moved a little. “Get up and have breakfast with me.”
Shangguan Wan did not know if she was hallucinating, but when he said that, it felt like it was the last request he was asking of her.
It was strange.
He didn’t wait for her to reply, as he headed towards the living room once he was done speaking.
Shangguan Wan continued to lie on the bed for a while before she got up, using her cane to go to the bathroom.
After washing up, she walked into the living room.
Ye Yanfeng was already sitting in front of the table. Staring at his slender back, Shangguan Wan felt extremely complicated.
Probably having heard her footsteps, he scooped a bowl of porridge for her. There was a faint fragrance of porridge lingering in the air. With the quiet life she had in the last two days, she finally looked a little better.
The two of them sat opposite of each other, each with a bowl of porridge as they sat silently.
Shangguan Wan looked down, bringing the spoon to her mouth, bite by bite.
Ye Yanfeng glanced at her occasionally. As her long lashes cast a small shadow on her face when she looked down, his Adam’s apple bobbed.
When Shangguan Wan was done with her last mouthful, she suddenly thought that there was something wrong. She looked up, and immediately saw the man bending down and leaning towards her.
Before she could react, he pinched her chin and kissed the corner of her lips.
Shangguan Wan’s eyes constricted a little. Her hands on the table slowly clenched into tight fists.
She could punch him right now, but somehow, a bad feeling remained unsettled within her. It was because there was a very heavy aura exuding from him that she couldn’t pinpoint it at all.
What was it?
He didn’t kiss her deeply like he did before, merely pecking her lips simply. Before he left, he said very softly, “Take care.”
Take care? Shangguan Wan furrowed her eyebrows a little, staring at the man who was moving away from her lips. “What do you mean?”
Ye Yanfeng straightened himself, placing his hands in his pocket as he looked down at Shangguan Wan. “Rest well during the day and sleep early at night. Try not to go out if you can.”
Before Shangguan Wan could say anything, he walked away with long strides.
After he left the room, Shangguan Wan walked to the window, a stuffiness growing in her chest as she stared at his departing figure.
What did he mean?
…
Shangguan Wan didn’t see Ye Yanfeng for the entire day.
She had spent her day in the bedroom. When the servants brought food up to the living room, she didn’t go out as well, only going out to eat after the servants left.
At night, Ye Yanfeng still hadn’t returned.
Recalling the kiss in the morning, the stuffiness in her chest grew larger, making her feel suffocated. As she lay on the bed, she recalled in detail everything that had happened in the last few days.
However, her mind was in a mess. She really couldn’t guess what Ye Yanfeng was trying to do. Every time she closed her eyes, she would see the scene of Bo Yan and their comrades being shot to death.
Unable to sleep, Shangguan Wan had insomnia until late at night, before she finally felt a little sleepy. She did not know how long she had slept, but when she was dazed with sleep, she felt someone pushing her.
Eyes fluttering open, under the faint moonlight, she saw a tall figure wearing the group’s security uniform standing beside her.
That figure did not seem to be Ye Yanfeng…
Shangguan Wan immediately heightened her guard. “Who are you? What do you want to do?”
The man lifted his hat that had been covering his face and a calm and indifferent face appeared in Shangguan Wan’s line of sight.
When Shangguan Wan saw the man’s face, her eyes constricted uncontrollably.
No… Her face paled as she opened her mouth, wanting to say something but nothing came out.
Bo Yan! It was actually Bo Yan!
For a moment, Shangguan Wan could not tell if it was really Bo Yan standing in front of her or if it was his ghost!
