"That makes sense, we'll wash up after lunch," Yu Longting gave me a few more kisses on the lips, supported my waist to sit up, and then he leaned down to re-fasten my clasps.
Watching his tender gestures, I felt as if time itself had slowed down, "I'm not very hungry."
My appetite completely vanished, big brother!!
"Don't be stubborn. If you take a bath without eating and get hypoglycemic and faint in the bathroom, then what?" Yu Longting finished fastening the buttons and bent down again to help me off the bed and slip on house slippers.
The whole process was smooth and natural, like a husband accustomed to taking thoughtful care of his wife.
For some reason, I felt a sudden warmth coursing through my veins from top to bottom, and I hugged him tightly, "I want to go back to Spring Wind Town. The climate in City B is so dry."
"Okay, I'll have Yu Rongling book a high-speed train. It's too shaky to go by car," Yu Longting stiffened for a moment, then patted my back.
I leaned into his ear and whispered softly, "I have absolutely, absolutely no feelings for Ye Jiqing. I came to City B because I saw something familiar in him, and I wanted to clarify whether it was just an illusion or not."
"Something familiar... Wanwan, it seems I was overthinking. What you're interested in isn't that kid," Yu Longting's voice was gentle but carried an audaciously playful tone, with a hint of malignant charm, "Lucky for you, you're not interested in him because if that brazen dog dared covet my woman, he wouldn't live to see tomorrow's sun."
Your true nature is showing, hey!!
Indeed, he had only seemed fragile and harmless; it was just an act.
In fact, he had long harbored thoughts of dealing with Ye Jiqing. I felt a bit of sympathy for the unsuspecting Ye Jiqing; what had he done to deserve this?
I looked at him disdainfully, "So you're dropping the act now?"
"Wanwan, I pretended only because I feared you'd hate me, afraid I'd lose you. I don't have to pretend anymore because you have no interest in that kid, so I no longer need to hold back," he argued cunningly, then leaned into my ear and said, "It was my negligence for not detecting the trickery on Ye Jiqing. Before we leave City B, I will help you keep an eye on him."
"Yeah, my experience is limited, and my judgment isn't very accurate. If you get a chance, help me check it out," I said trustingly.
After eating something to fill my stomach, I went to the bathroom to take a bath.
Even though I had slept, Yu Longting had healed all my wounds.
But my body still felt a bit tired, so I started pouring hot water into the bathtub.
I lay down in it to soak for a while, to relax my body.
All the pores on my body opened up, and every bit of fatigue seemed to wash away, leaving me incredibly comfortable.
I closed my eyes, and suddenly my mind flashed back.
It was flooded with high school memories of Ye Jiqing, images from the classroom, the sports field, and even that little path after school.
The images were exceptionally vivid; I could even clearly see the details of a small piece of chalk...
Why did I suddenly think of Ye Jiqing?
I tried to extricate myself from the pain of these memories, and then my consciousness returned to the hotel.
But it wasn't in the bathroom; it was in the hotel corridor.
This wasn't the first time I had experienced this; it wasn't an illusion. Updates are released by n͟o͟v͟e͟l͟f͟i͟r͟e͟.net
It was my Spiritual Eye.
The Spiritual Eye has the ability to penetrate.
It can perceive things invisible to the average person, and sometimes it can even see through people's souls, reaching places thousands of miles away.
However, the latter two capabilities are highly unstable. I can only see people's souls under very particular coincidental conditions.
The vision of places far away only occurred once in my childhood when Xia Xi had someone try to overpower me.
I sat in the classroom and witnessed everything. After school, I took a different path and avoided the calamity.
This was only the second time.
In the corridor, I saw Yu Rongling flipping a room card in his hand, whistling as he walked to the hotel room door. Then, he surprisingly used the card to swipe open the door, "Bro, your big cutie is here. Is sister-in-law awake?"
