The shout made both Shangguan Wan and Ye Yanfeng freeze at the same time.
Shangguan Wan blinked, not expecting herself to say such a thing.
What… What had happened to her?
She furrowed her eyebrows tightly, closing her eyes, though she couldn’t remember what appeared in her mind earlier anymore.
Only a blurry shadow continued to shake in her mind. She rubbed her temple, her eyes constricting when she saw a darkness flashing in the man’s pretty eyes.
Ye Yanfeng was about to get up from Shangguan Wan when she suddenly stretched her arms up and hugged his neck with all of her strength.
She buried her face in the crook of his neck, saying with a slightly choked voice, “I’m sorry, I don’t know what happened just now. Please don’t mind me. I wasn’t asking you to go away.”
Ye Yanfeng looked down at the woman under him, his finger caressing the corner of her lips. “What did you think of just now?”
Shangguan Wan shook her head. “I just thought that the scene of a couple chasing after another felt a sense of déjà vu. Then, I seemed to have gone back home for a moment. It felt very strange, I clearly saw something, but I can’t remember anything at all.”
Hearing the confusion in her voice, Ye Yanfeng furrowed his eyebrows, before they slowly eased. He didn’t say anything, merely cupping her face and kissing her ruthlessly.
…
There were only two tents, so Shangguan Wan and Bailey shared a tent while Ye Yanfeng and Jing Ting shared the other.
Ye Yanfeng’s expression wasn’t very good.
Jing Ting laid on his side, his hands hugging the back of his head as he could not help but complain, “I don’t want to sleep with you either! Looking at how you can’t seem to leave Wan’er, you’re probably going back to Yukou Border with her instead of traveling here and there anymore!”
Ye Yanfeng couldn’t care less about what Jing Ting was saying.
“However, you better go back to the hospital with me for a check-up tomorrow and get some medication at the same time. Although I can’t do anything about the microchip in your head, I can still do something about the blood clot pressing against your visual nerves. If you don’t want to do a surgery, you definitely have to take your medicine on time.”
…
Shangguan Wan had a good night’s sleep. When she woke up the next day, she felt extremely energized.
Ye Yanfeng and Jing Ting had long woken up and had already made breakfast. The four of them took the cruise boat back to Ocean Island after they were done with breakfast.
When they were about to reach Ocean Island, Shangguan Wan found Ye Yanfeng sitting on the deck.
She sat next to him and poked him with her elbow. “I’m bringing Little Xingxing back to Yukou Border tomorrow afternoon, are you going back with us or…”
“I’m going to the hospital with Jing Ting first.”
Shangguan Wan nodded, wrapping her hand around his arm as she leaned her head on his shoulder. “Then when are you coming back to Yukou Border?”
“As soon as possible.”
Hearing this, Shangguan Wan could not help but smile.
…
Once they were back at Yukou Border, Shangguan Wan arranged all the things she had to do at the military camp.
She planned to wait for Ye Yanfeng to come over before they visit the Capital. As he had said, the microchip in his brain was a ticking time bomb that could explode anytime.
Even if the Prince wasn’t willing to save him, she would think of a way too! She couldn’t give up as long as there was a sliver of hope remaining.
However, just as she was planning this, she didn’t think that another unexpected thing would happen!
That day, she received Ye Yanfeng’s call saying that he had returned to Yukou Border and would arrive at Zuofeng Mountain that afternoon.
Shangguan Wan rushed towards Zuofeng Mountain without resting.
On the way there, she received a message.
There were no words in the message, only a photo.
When she saw the photo, she froze terribly.
…
When Ye Yanfeng arrived at Zuofeng Mountain, Shangguan Wan had yet to arrive. She said she was coming to give him a surprise, but he didn’t even see her.
He waited for nearly an hour before Shangguan Wan appeared.
“What’s the surprise?”
Shangguan Wan laughed. “I’m the surprise! Why? Don’t you like it?”
Ye Yanfeng didn’t reply, furrowing his eyebrows as he took in her slightly red eyes. “What’s wrong?”
Shangguan Wan’s smile widened. “Nothing. Oh yes, I brought many dishes. I’ll cook for you later.”
Ye Yanfeng raised an eyebrow. “Never mind, I don’t want to be poisoned by you yet.”
Shangguan Wan clenched her fists, punching him several times. “Don’t you how to say something nicer?”
“Ti amo!”
Shangguan Wan replied, puzzled, “What ti amo?”
“Je t’aime!”
Shangguan Wan was confused. “What exactly are you saying?”
“Ich liebe dich!”
Shangguan Wan replied, “If you don’t say it properly, I’m going to leave!”
He grabbed her wrist, pressing his lips by her ear as he said hoarsely, “I love you!”
Shangguan Wan immediately understood that he was using the various languages to confess to her.
This stubborn boy.
She smiled shyly. “Me too.”
Jing Ting and Bailey walked over. When they saw the couple hugging, they glanced at each other.
“Geez, we’re fed dog the moment we arrive. My heart received a million attacks!”
Bailey replied, “Dr Jing, I feel even worse than you.”
Jing Ting hugged Bailey’s shoulders immediately. “How about we just get together? So that we can feed them everyday instead?”
“Stop joking around, Dr Jing. I know that there are many girls that like you.”
“Hahaha, indeed, apart from Wan’er, I can get every girl I want once I make a move.”
…
Ultimately, Shangguan Wan was still not suitable for the kitchen. She was originally full of confidence that she would be able to make a table full of delicious food. However, indeed, she was not fit for cooking, and Bailey and Jing Ting had to work together to settle the ingredients she had bought.
Ye Yanfeng accompanied Shangguan Wan as they watched the military news on the sofa. But the woman who usually liked to watch the military news seemed to keep spacing out.
Suddenly, Shangguan Wan’s phone rang.
When she saw the caller ID, her expression changed a little.
“I’ll go out to take a call.”
A few minutes later, Shangguan Wan returned to the living room.
Bailey and Jing Ting were done cooking and the former came out to call Shangguan Wan and Ye Yanfeng.
Shangguan Wan said awkwardly, “I’m really sorry but there’s an urgent matter in the camp so I can’t eat with you.”
Bailey showed her understanding.
Ye Yanfeng didn’t say anything as he narrowed his eyes at Shangguan Wan. Shangguan Wan and Ye Yanfeng’s eyes met for a few seconds, before they both looked away hurriedly.
“Yanfeng, have a good rest. I’ll call you when I have time.” Shangguan Wan carried her bag and left hurriedly.
Staring at her back, Ye Yanfeng furrowed his eyebrows. She definitely had something on her mind!
What was it that she couldn’t tell him?
…
After Shangguan Wan left, Ye Yanfeng lost his appetite.
Ye Yanfeng hurriedly finished his food before he went up to change.
Seeing that he was going out, Jing Ting furrowed his eyebrows slightly. “Where are you going? I can go with you.”
He lost his sight occasionally, so going out alone would be very dangerous for him.
Ye Yanfeng’s jawline was tense, his expression cold. “There’s no need to.”
Before Jing Ting could say anything, Ye Yanfeng took his car keys and drove away.
He drove to a corner not too far away from Shangguan Wan’s house. He waited until the skies darkened but he didn’t see Shangguan Wan returning.
It was until nine in the evening that he saw a luxurious sports car appearing in front of Shangguan Wan’s house.
Shangguan Wan got out from the front passenger seat while a man got out from the driver’s seat not too long later.
