Ye Wanwan flipped over, sat up in bed, and connected the video call quickly, then looked at Shen Yi on her phone with a somewhat unnatural expression.
"Why haven’t you rested yet?" Shen Yi held the phone in one hand and loosened his tie with the other, looking at Ye Wanwan through the video and asked.
"I’m about to sleep." Ye Wanwan said. In truth, she hadn’t been able to sleep at all and had been waiting for a message from Shen Yi.
Shen Yi set the phone on the table, found a spot to prop it up, and began to undress.
Neither of them spoke, and when the silence settled, there was an inexplicable moment of subtlety in the atmosphere.
Ye Wanwan watched Shen Yi, hesitating for a long while before asking, "Um, did you come back yesterday because of our wedding anniversary?"
Shen Yi paused, glanced at Ye Wanwan on his phone, but didn’t rush to say anything. He took off his jacket and placed it on the back of a chair, then sat down on it.
"So, you really came back yesterday just for our wedding anniversary!" Ye Wanwan, seeing Shen Yi’s expression, felt like she roughly had her answer already.
Shen Yi was silent for a few seconds before he slowly said, "No, I just happened to come back to see you."
Ye Wanwan frowned and sighed with a tint of self-reproach, "I’m sorry, I thought our wedding anniversary should be the day we held our ceremony, so I completely forgot that yesterday was the day we got our marriage certificate."
"I didn’t expect you to come back yesterday, so that’s why I held a party at home." If she had known Shen Yi was coming back, she definitely wouldn’t have held any pool party at home yesterday.
Looking at Ye Wanwan’s pitiable appearance, Shen Yi opened his mouth as if wanting to say something, but remembering how Ye Wanwan had spent so much time with him last time, he hesitated.
In the end, he coughed slightly, didn’t explain anything, and only after Ye Wanwan finished speaking did Shen Yi offer an indifferent word of comfort, "It doesn’t matter, any anniversary is just an excuse after all, I just wanted to see you."
Hearing this made Ye Wanwan feel even guiltier. Although she had the time, she was unwilling to accompany Shen Yi abroad, while Shen Yi was so busy he barely had time to sleep, yet he still rushed back to see her.
Suddenly, Ye Wanwan felt she might have gone to extremes. She’d been restraining her feelings for Shen Yi to avoid repeating the tragedy of her past life.
But it seemed she had restrained herself too much and ended up neglecting Shen Yi to some degree.
"Alright, it’s no big deal. It’s late, get some rest," Shen Yi comforted.
Ye Wanwan just pursed her lips and silently watched Shen Yi on the video.
Seeing she wasn’t speaking, Shen Yi chuckled softly and gently said, "Alright, get some rest, goodnight."
"Goodnight." Ye Wanwan reluctantly said, and this time she didn’t hang up the video call herself, but waited until Shen Yi hung up.
Once the video ended, Ye Wanwan tossed her phone aside and rolled around wildly on the bed, even letting out uncontrollable screams. If not for the good sound insulation in the room, probably everyone outside would have been startled.
At this moment, Ye Wanwan was truly frustrated, exceptionally frustrated!
How could Shen Yi be !
She didn’t even know what she should do!
After being frantic for a while, Ye Wanwan still didn’t know what to do, but at this point, she didn’t want to think about it anymore and just wanted to lie down without a care.
And as she lay there, she eventually fell asleep without realizing it.
