“Yes. Senior is not done yet, is he?”
“No, I haven’t seen him at all yet. Alright, you may go upstairs to rest. You’ve had a tiring day.”
Thinking that Mrs. Yan was rather nice, Fang Erlan nodded and entered the elevator.
When the doors closed, Xiao Yue said softly, “Senior Yan Ge’s mother really takes such good care of herself. She’s in such great shape too.”
“Yeah, I heard that she used to be a professional dancer. Most dancers usually place great emphasis on their figures.”
While the elevator was ascending, the bodyguard’s mobile phone began to ring. After he answered the call, he said, “Ms. Fang, we won’t be on duty tonight. We’ll be going home tomorrow.”
Fang Erlan immediately asked, “Is Xiao Chenyang coming back tomorrow?”
“He didn’t mention anything, but I think so.”
Fang Erlan thought to herself, No wonder I had an ominous feeling. Turns out…
Xiao Yue and the two bodyguards exited on the ninth floor while Fang Erlan proceeded to the tenth floor.
She returned to her room and unlocked the door with the key card. She then picked up her sleeveless nightdress and headed to the bathroom. Fang Erlan’s heart jumped out of her chest the moment she opened the door.
“Ah! Oh my god!”
Fang Erlan clutched her chest, absolutely terrorized. Staring at Xiao Chenyang, who was wearing a bathrobe, she said in a quivering voice, “Why did you come back all of a sudden? When we were in the elevator just now, the bodyguards said that they would be leaving tomorrow so I thought that you would be coming back tomorrow.”
Although she did not mean much, Xiao Chenyang’s face grew sullen the moment he heard her say, “Why did you come back all of a sudden?”
He said, “I know you really don’t want me to come home, but you still don’t have the right to decide.”
He exited from the washroom and so did Fang Erlan, who took her pajamas with her. “I tried to call you but you wouldn’t answer and you even switched off your mobile phone. Why did you go back to A City all of a sudden without telling me beforehand? Xiao Yue and I waited for you outside the restaurant for half an hour that night.”
“Half an hour is peanuts,” he said. What’s half an hour to me? I’ve waited centuries for her.
Fang Erlan was displeased upon hearing his words. “Don’t tell me you’re planning to sleep here tonight?”
“Is that okay?”
“Of course not.”
“But I insist.”
“You…” Fang Erlan had a hunch that he was angry, although she had no idea why he was upset.
She placed her nightdress down and picked up a set of pajamas before heading to the bathroom again.
He had already closed his eyes by the time she exited, seemingly having dozed off.
Fang Erlan stepped forward and stared at him while he slept. She then pulled the blanket over him while she lay on the couch, where she planned to spend the rest of the night.
“Come here.”
She had no choice but to turn around to look at him. She discovered that he had already opened his eyes.
“Go sleep on the bed. I”ll take the couch.”
“I’m telling you to come here,” he added.
“I don’t want to.”
He got out of bed and walked toward her. “Are you going to come here or not?”
“No… oomph…” He bent forward and kissed her forcefully, completely ignoring the fact that she was struggling to break free.
Fang Erlan felt that he had gone berserk. Absolutely berserk.
“Let go of me, let go of me!!!”
“I want you…”
Frightened out of her senses, Fang Erlan began bawling loudly and begged for mercy, “No, Xiao Chenyang, please don’t treat me like this. I’m begging you, don’t do this to me. I won’t provoke you again. I’ll lie down on the bed and sleep now…”
Xiao Chenyang paused in his actions and a gloomy look formed in his eyes.
He got up and lay down on the bed, after which Fang Erlan lay beside him.
Now that she had a boyfriend, she could not help but feel guilty for sleeping next to Xiao Chenyang, although they were purely just sleeping.
Not to mention, Xiao Chenyang even forced a kiss on her.
Her heart was filled with guilt and remorse.
Fang Erlan lay flat on the bed, feeling as if there was nothing left for her to live for.
“Go to bed,” said Xiao Chenyang.
Fang Erlan snapped out of her trance and turned to face away from him. “Are you really going to be happy this way?”
“…”
“Xiao Chenyang, I’m asking you a question.”
“…”
She turned over to meet his eyes and said, “Neither of us will be happy if you keep acting like this.”
“Will you be happy only when I vanish out of your sight forever?”
“Yes.”
He hugged her tightly and said, “Didn’t you say that you’re not going to provoke me any further?”
“I’m just answering your question truthfully.”
“…”
Seeing that he was remaining silent, Fang Erlan decided not to say anything else.
She soon dozed off and drifted to dreamland.
In her dream, she was prey to the ferocious and menacing Xiao Chenyang, who was chasing her continuously in a bid to devour her. She continued running away from him without stopping to catch her breath, for fear that he would catch up with her.
The sky was still dark when she woke up from her dream while shrieking in terror. She panted heavily and tried to catch her breath. All of a sudden, she got a huge fright the moment she caught sight of a figure sitting by the window.
She hurriedly switched on the lights and found that the person sitting there was none other than Xiao Chenyang.
“Why are you sitting there instead of sleeping?”
“I’m thinking about something.”
“What are you thinking about?”
“I’m contemplating if I should take you to Mount Wanyan where the two of us can live alone with each other.”
“W… What!?!”
Fang Erlan’s heart contracted and began pounding rapidly. She felt as if she was about to be asphyxiated.
She did not wish to return to the mountain that was isolated from the rest of the world.
Ever since she returned from Y Nation, she had been afraid that he would mention it again.
It was her greatest fear…
“I don’t want to go to that place. Why are you treating me like this? Do you think you can trample all over me however you’d please just because you’re stronger than I am?” said Fang Erlan, staring at him with tears in her eyes.
“Do you really think I won’t find out about it just because you’re hiding it from me?”
Pangs of panic engulfed Fang Erlan as she grabbed onto the sheets tightly. “What… do you know…” she spluttered.
He walked toward her and lay down again. Staring at her, he said, “I know that you’re in a relationship with Yan Ge.”
His words gave Fang Erlan a splitting headache.
How did he find out?
She was far more frightened at this very moment compared to when he threatened to take her to Mount Wanyan.
“You promised me before that you won’t touch the person I fancy, regardless of who he is…”
“I did promise you that, but on the condition that you’re not in a relationship with him.”
Fang Erlan grabbed Xiao Chenyang’s hand, and he could feel that her hand was trembling.
“Don’t touch him, alright?”
“I can promise you that, but you have to promise me one thing.”
Tears flowed out of Fang Erlan’s eyes like a broken faucet. “Are you asking me to break up with him?”
His heart went soft the moment he saw that she had teared up. He wiped her tears away and said, “Don’t cry, I’m not going to force you to do that.”
