Ye Ye, now in her nightgown, slipped into Long Yu’s bed, hugging his waist, “If Yu wants me, I’ll give myself to you!” She looked at him with earnest, teary eyes in the dim light. “Fool, I’m afraid if I take you, I won’t be able to give you your freedom anymore!” Long Yu caressed Ye Ye’s delicate face, his voice hoarse. Yes, he was afraid that if he had a relationship with Ye Ye, he wouldn’t be able to give her the freedom she deserved. This little woman, just by holding her, was addictive, and if he went further, it would awaken a man’s most terrifying possessiveness. And for now, Long Yu didn’t want to lose his own freedom…
“Yu—” Ye Ye said nothing more, not knowing what to say, just feeling content in Long Yu’s embrace – she wasn’t alone anymore. She had someone to protect her…
The next day, Ye Ye woke up to find Long Yu gone. She propped herself up to see a red laptop on the bedside table, its screen flashing. Ye Ye tried to turn it on but found a message instead:
Baby: I’ve gone to Dubai ahead of schedule, will be back in two weeks at the earliest. If you really miss me, come find me! If you don’t want to be alone in the apartment, come here, at least there are servants, and you won’t be scared. If anything happens, go to Aohua Building and find Si Yan. While I’m away, stay away from other nightclubs except for Qiyemen and my territory. It’s chaotic out there, and you’re so beautiful, I’d worry about bad people eyeing you. Remember to miss me. – Your Yu.
Ye Ye read Long Yu’s message with a warm heart, smiling foolishly. Her Yu was always so good… unlike Ho… Maybe Yu was the one most suited for her… Suddenly, her phone rang. Ye Ye checked the screen; it was Auntie Xiong, so she answered, “Hello— Auntie Xiong, what’s up?”
“Ye Ye, are you up?” Auntie Xiong asked cheerfully.
“Yes, what’s wrong?”
“Yu called me before he left, asked me to spend more time with you while he’s not in Rome. To cook soup for you! Hehe, let’s go out for dinner tonight, it’s your Uncle Xiong’s birthday in a couple of days, I want to pick out a gift for him. Keep me company!”
“Okay— I should get a gift for Uncle Xiong too!” Ye Ye said.
“Then let’s meet at the Earl Coffee on the commercial street!”
“Alright, see you tonight!” Ye Ye hung up.
