Chapter 326: Why Do You Suddenly Think That Way?

As the night deepened, Shen Yaowei returned to the courtyard in the dark.
The courtyard she lived in was quiet. Zi Yun and Nuan Ying had already turned off the lights. The quiet air flowed in the courtyard, and there was nothing unusual.
Shen Yaowei quietly returned to her room, opened the door, and entered. She raised her hand to take off the butterfly mask on her face.
Perhaps because she had relaxed after returning here, all the strength in her body seemed to have been sucked out. She couldn’t muster any strength at all as she dragged her tired body to the bed.
Shen Yaowei took off her night clothes and short boots and got into bed in her inner shirt.
Unlike the coldness she had imagined, the bed was warm, and there was a familiar aura that comforted her.
Why was Junhan’s aura under her blanket?
Before Shen Yaowei’s head could turn around, the man sleeping on the inside of the bed turned over and opened his arms to hug her.
The familiar scent and body temperature surprised and delighted her.
It’s Junhan!
Just as she was about to reach out and hug the man back, Shen Yaowei suddenly felt the cold aura in the air. She shrank her neck in fear and looked up carefully at Huo Junhan.
It was dark all around. Shen Yaowei couldn’t see Huo Junhan’s expression clearly, but she could clearly feel the terrifying low pressure emanating from him.
The nervousness of being caught swept over her. Shen Yaowei’s heart pounded wildly. After thinking for a moment, she hugged his waist tightly without hesitation.
Huo Junhan didn’t push her away. Instead, he retracted his arm and hugged her tightly.
Shen Yaowei was relieved that the man didn’t reject her. She placed her head on his arm, raised her snow-white chin, and blinked her big eyes. “Junhan, why are you back so soon?”
She originally thought that he would only come back in a few days. If she had known that he would come back tonight, she would definitely have waited for him here. She would never have gone out and ran around.
Huo Junhan moved his lips, his hoarse and low voice hiding a hint of resentment. “From what you’re saying, it seems like I came back too early and at the wrong time.”
Shen Yaowei could tell that he was still angry with just one sentence. She rubbed her head in his arms and whined. “It’s not like that. That’s not what I meant. Junhan, I miss you so much. I’m really happy that you came back early…”
“What did I tell you before I left? You’ve forgotten what you promised me.” Before Shen Yaowei could continue to wheedle, Huo Junhan interrupted her, lest he heard too much and was softened by her wheedling later.
Hearing Huo Junhan’s tone turn colder and colder, Shen Yaowei pouted aggrievedly.
She had actually not done anything wrong. Why did he have to be angry with her?
At the thought of this, she no longer suppressed her emotions. Shen Yaowei’s gaze was firm as she reached out and pushed Huo Junhan away. “Junhan, I didn’t mean to break my promise. It’s just that I don’t like this. I know you want to protect me, but I don’t want to always be your canary and be protected by you. This has never been my wish. What I really yearn for is powerful strength. I want to advance and retreat with you.”
“Why do you suddenly think that?” Huo Junhan didn’t deny her words. Instead, he reached out and gently tucked the hair behind her ear.
Shen Yaowei’s eyes were bright like the brightest star in the galaxy. “It’s not that I suddenly think that way. Actually, I’ve always thought that way. Junhan, believe me. Give me a chance. I’ll prove to you that I can do it..”
