Because she was the first to suggest taking turns guarding the place, Shen Yaowei volunteered to keep watch tonight.
Everyone had seen Shen Yaowei’s strength. With her guarding the night, everyone rested at ease.
Sitting in front of the bonfire, the girl held her snow-white chin and watched the flames crackle in the fire.
“Miss Shen.” Yao Qingyi walked over and sat beside Shen Yaowei. He handed him an oil paper bag. “This is the pastry I bought in Boundless City previously. There’s nothing delicious in the forest. Hurry up and eat it.”
Shen Yaowei reached out to take it. After opening the oil paper bag, she realized that the pastries inside were quite exquisite. It was obvious that Yao Qingyi had specially bought them. “Senior Brother, 1 can’t accept it.”
Yao Qingyi didn’t seem to expect to be rejected. He hurriedly explained, “You don’t have to feel burdened. This was what 1 planned to buy for you in the first place. You’ve suffered because of Zhan Yongjun. I’ve already asked Master to personally explain Zhan Yongjun’s matter when we go back. He definitely won’t let you suffer.”
Shen Yaowei held the pastry and watched as the fire illuminated Yao Qingyi’s red face.
As soon as Zhan Yongjun went missing, they were busy searching for her whereabouts. Then, they were forced to come to the Ghost Shadow Forest by the ghost race. Yao Qingyi didn’t have the time to go to Boundless City to buy pastries.
Unless he had bought the pastries in advance and planned to give it to her.
Thinking of how Yao Qingyi had risked his life to save her today, Shen Yaowei looked at the young man’s red face and more or less sensed that something was wrong.
After wrapping the oil paper bag again, Shen Yaowei returned the pastries to Yao Qingyi. “Thank you, Senior Brother, but I ate too many pastries at my fiance’s residence. I’m quite sick of pastries and I can’t eat more. Please forgive me, Senior Brother Yao.”
Yao Qingyi felt that Shen Yaowei’s words were like a thorn in his heart. He took back the pastry awkwardly. “Oh… I see.”
“That’s right. In addition, regarding Zhan Yongjun, I believe my father, brother, and Junhan will stand on my side. The Zhan family will definitely not pester me.” Shen Yaowei was full of confidence. She was sure that her guess was right. After returning to the capital, not only would the Zhan family not dare to pester her, but they would even come to apologize to her.
If Zhan Yongjun’s family didn’t show a good attitude, not to mention Junhan, even her father and brothers wouldn’t let this matter go easily.
She knew that Yao Qingyi was being kind, but Shen Yaowei didn’t want to cause any unnecessary misunderstanding.
Especially when it came to matters between men and women, she had already made up her mind. She wouldn’t let anyone or anything affect her relationship with Junhan.
Yao Qingyi almost couldn’t maintain the stiff smile on his lips. “Yes, you have a point. In that case, I’m being nosy.”
Shen Yaowei smiled calmly and said softly, “Senior Brother, it’s late at night. Hurry up and rest.”
Seeing Yao Qingyi stand up and leave in disappointment, Shen Yaowei was expressionless. She picked up the dried branches on the ground and added some firewood to the fire.
The flames burned even brighter. Shen Yaowei felt the aura beside her and turned to see Cang Ye sitting beside her.
Cang Ye looked to be in a good mood. He seemed to have recovered his good mood, and followed beside her like before, his eyes flickering with a different light.
Shen Yaowei looked at him with interest. “Why aren’t you resting?”
Cang Ye opened his thin lips and said, “I’m not sleepy..”
