After bathing, he gently opened the bedroom door and under the moonlight, Ling Feng saw an enticing silhouette beneath the quilt.
It was only upon getting closer that Ling Feng realized the person lying in the bed was Yun Hanrui, not Liu Tingyu.
They hadn't seen each other for over half a month, and Yun Hanrui was as beautiful as ever, but there was an indelible sadness between her brows, even in her sleep, her brows were tightly furrowed, causing Ling Feng a burst of heartache.
Looking at Yun Hanrui's face, a sense of guilt unavoidably rose in Ling Feng's heart. Since Yun Hanrui had given herself to him, he hadn't truly taken on the responsibility a man should!
Previously, due to some misunderstandings, Father Yun and Mother Yun found out about his relationship with Yun Hanrui. Ling Feng should have seized the moment to firmly establish their relationship, but then he had to travel to Fusang for a mission, which took him away for another half a month!
He could imagine, during this time, Yun Hanrui must have faced Father Yun and Mother Yun's questioning all by herself?
"I'm sorry!" Ling Feng gently kissed the middle of Yun Hanrui's forehead, "I'm back now, so let me handle the remaining matters! I swear, I won't let you be upset over our issues anymore! No matter how much Uncle Yun opposes, I will not let go of your hand!"
Yun Hanrui might have heard Ling Feng's promise in her sleep as her previously furrowed brows gradually relaxed, and her face softened a lot.
Ling Feng sighed softly, then hugged Yun Hanrui tightly again. Now, in Ling Feng's heart, there were no other thoughts, only tenderness. Holding the girl he loved was enough for him!
With warmth in his embrace, Ling Feng fell into a deep sleep.
When awakened by the sunlight in the morning, Yun Hanrui groggily opened her eyes. She vaguely remembered having a dream last night where she was being accused and mocked by many masked people, some even came up to tear her clothes and pull her hair... but just when she covered herself hesitantly, a sturdy shoulder protected her.
She tried hard to see the owner of the shoulder but no matter how hard she tried, she only saw a familiar silhouette and felt a warm atmosphere, as if with this shoulder nearby, she could ignore all the outside gossip and stormy weather! Follow current novᴇls on ɴovᴇl(ꜰ)ir(e).nᴇt
"Yes, that's the feeling!" Yun Hanrui continued to nuzzle like a kitten, then her body stiffened, and the lazy expression on her face instantly froze!
Who was the person behind her?
"Ah!" Yun Hanrui screamed and kicked out, directly kicking Ling Feng off the bed.
With a thud, Ling Feng, who had been sleeping soundly, made an intimate contact with the floor due to Yun Hanrui's kick.
"What happened? Was there an earthquake?" Ling Feng rubbed his forehead as he got up from the floor, looking puzzled.
Yun Hanrui, having recognized Ling Feng, felt as if her mood had shifted from hell to paradise.
"It's all your fault. Why didn't you say anything when you came back? Do you know you scared me to death!" Yun Hanrui said angrily while sitting on the bed.
Ling Feng chuckled, getting up from the floor, "I returned from overseas in the middle of the night. I saw you were sleeping soundly, so I didn't disturb you... By the way, have you been sleeping here recently? Haven't you gone home?"
Although the two had already been intimate and opened up to each other, this was only the second time they were this close.
Yun Hanrui snuggled into Ling Feng's arms, pressed her face to his chest, and whispered, "There's been a lot going on at the company recently, and there are some issues at home that haven't been resolved, so I've claimed this place for now! After all, Sister Ting Yu isn't here at the moment."
