Huo Yao squeezed her hands slightly as she listened to his heartbeat. She had to admit that she kind of enjoyed making out with him.

After leaning against his chest briefly, she raised her head and said airily, “Depends on your performance.”

“Does it depend on me?” Min Yu looked at her as he thought about what she meant by those words.

He had worked really hard at trying to win her heart. Did this mean he had succeeded?

Huo Yao raised her brow without saying a word. She lowered her head and kissed him on his heart.

!!

Min Yu went stiff the moment she put her lips on him. A warm sensation coursed through his body from his chest. For a moment, he did not know how to react.

Huo Yao got off and stood up. When she looked at him, she noticed his bathrobe had already come loose, so she promptly veered her eyes awkwardly. She ignored him and took her phone from the table before leaving the room quickly.

Min Yu finally snapped out of his daze when he heard the bedroom door closing.

He raised his hand and touched his chest right where Huo Yao had kissed him and smiled. The atmosphere felt indescribably beautiful.

Even though he had hardly rested during the past couple of days, he felt extremely energetic now.

After lying in bed for a while, Min Yu got up as well. He lowered his head and shook his head when he discovered that some of his wounds had split open again. One day, she was going to kill him.

Min Yu picked up the gauze from the ground and bandaged himself. When he was done, he went to the wardrobe and changed into a fresh set of clothes.

Before long, Min Yu went downstairs.

…

After placing lunch on the table, Huo Yao thought about calling Min Yu down to eat something when he came down on his own. She turned and entered the kitchen to get some cutlery and crockery.

The two of them quietly ate lunch without the slightest awkwardness.

“Oh yes. Old Mr. Pei is in town. He invited you for dinner. Since you were unavailable, I said you weren’t free and went on my own.” Huo Yao raised her head and spoke.

“Uh huh. I know.” Min Yu nodded. After returning from the primeval forest, he had already gone through the unread text messages which he had received from her. “How is Old Mr. Pei anyway?”

Huo Yao ate a last bite of rice and put down her chopsticks. “He looked good actually.”

Her phone suddenly rang with a text message notification while they were talking.

Old Mr. Pei had just sent her a text message.

Huo Yao tapped on the text message and frowned after reading it. Min Yu noticed something amiss with her and asked. “What’s wrong?”

Huo Yao held her phone without replying to the text message. She said, “Old Mr. Pei just apologized to me.”

“Why did he apologize? Did something happen?” asked Min Yu quizzically.

Huo Yao shook her head. “I don’t know what he means either.”

She thought about her dinner with the old man. He was a little distracted after answering a call. Other than that, everything seemed normal about that evening.

She could not wrap her mind around this sudden apology.

After contemplating for a couple of seconds, Huo Yao sent a text message asking what Old Mr. Pei meant.

However, she did not hear back from him after some time.

Huo Yao felt puzzled, but she felt awkward about pursuing it further, so she simply put away her phone.

Huo Yao cleared the table after lunch. She checked the time and said, “Why don’t you go and catch up on some rest? I’m heading back to school.”

Min Yu simply said, “Hang on.”

“Huh?” Huo Yao looked at Min Yu quizzically, but he went upstairs wordlessly. She did not leave right away and waited for him.
