When Yu Yelan opened her eyes and saw the haggard Yue Xiye, she chuckled. How many times was this? Every time she opened her eyes to see Yue Xiye’s worried face, a fleeting thought passed, too quick for her to grasp.
“You’re still laughing, little rabbit. You’ve scared half my soul away!” Although Yu Yelan’s face was still pale, her smile remained bright and pure. Yue Xiye’s heart finally relaxed. He could not be at ease until she regained consciousness.
“Sorry, Ye. I won’t do it again!” Seeing Yue Xiye’s dark face, Yu Yelan secretly delighted inside.
“Ye cared so much about her, but she didn’t dare show it, only wrinkling her face and acting coy, hoping to escape punishment.
“There won’t be a next time?!” Yue Xiye’s voice rose, but seeing Yu Yelan’s frightened expression, he eventually softened his tone, “Absolutely no next time. Look at all the trouble you’ve caused! Because of you, I’ll definitely live ten years less!”
“Absolutely no next time, I promise! I promise!” Yu Yelan hurriedly swore, pulling her shoulder wound and grimacing in pain.
“Be careful. You’re such a worry!” Yue Xiye instructed, his fingers beginning to smooth Yu Yelan’s messy hair. “Why did you go to him?”
“Who? Who did I go to?”
“Your act of playing dumb isn’t convincing at all. Your eyes are rolling around, not daring to meet my gaze. Are you sure you want to continue pretending?” Yue Xiye lightly touched Yu Yelan’s forehead, the only part of her face uninjured.
“Okay, okay, I’ll tell you, but you can’t get angry!” Yu Yelan wanted a get-out-of-jail-free card.
“You dare to negotiate terms with me?” The blue eyes narrowed dangerously, scaring the timid rabbit into submission. “Fine, fine. You didn’t want to talk to Uncle King, seeing him so pitiful, always following you. Of course, I wanted to care about Uncle King!”
Yu Yelan’s form of address made Yue Xiye frown. Since when did she become so familiar with that person?
“Don’t frown!” Yu Yelan pouted. “Ye, promise me, talk to Uncle King.”
Some things might not be what you imagine. Life happens only once; don’t make rash decisions, or you’ll definitely regret it! Promise me, okay, Ye?”
Night’s Moonlight (13)
Instinct told Yue Xiye that Yu Yelan definitely could not have said something so philosophical; she must have been instigated. However, he could not blame Yu Yelan; the little rabbit’s intentions were definitely for his sake!
“Ye, my wound hurts so much, so much!” With a roll of her eyes, Yu Yelan thought of three words: sympathy ploy!
“Where does it hurt? I’ll call a doctor!” Yue Xiye immediately fell for it, his mind only able to think about the little rabbit’s pain.
“Ye, just promise me, talk to Uncle King, and if you still insist afterwards, I won’t bring this up again, okay? Ye, I just don’t want to see you so unhappy, imprisoning yourself. How can you be happy like that?”
Seeing the silver light emerging in Yu Ye Lan’s eyes, Yue Xi Ye immediately surrendered, “Okay, I’ll talk to him, you must obediently let the doctor check you.”
“Ye, I’ll stay by your side for a lifetime, love you, accompany you, and you’ll love me too, okay?”
Yue Xi Ye flicked Yu Ye Lan’s forehead with his finger and stood up, “I’ll call the doctor, obediently close your eyes and rest.”
After the doctor examined Yu Ye Lan and administered a pain-relieving injection, she was exhausted from previous sleeplessness and guarding outside Yue Xi Ye’s door for a day and night. Soon, she fell into a dream.
This was Yue Xi Ye’s request; he couldn’t leave Yu Ye Lan alone in the hospital room.
When Yu Ye Lan was slowly pulled out of her sleep by fragments of conversation, she realized she had missed the exciting negotiation. However, it seemed the development was optimistic. She secretly opened her eyes a crack and saw the father and son sitting on the sofa in the hospital room’s corner. Although not intimate, the distant atmosphere had disappeared.
Yu Ye Lan quickly closed her eyes, swearing she absolutely wasn’t eavesdropping, but rather didn’t want to interrupt the father and son’s bonding.
Recently, the hottest topic at Liu Feng High School is about Yue Xiyi finding his biological father. However, with various speculations, everyone thought Yue Xiyi was born into nobility, but no one had imagined that Yue Xiyi was a prince forged entirely of diamonds.
Qin Poxiao finally knew the identity of the person secretly investigating Yue Xiyi.
He dramatically clicked his tongue, circling around Yue Xiyi before finally blurting out, “Ye, you guy, although I had long seen that you were no ordinary person, I never expected your identity to be so noble! Should I also call you Your Highness?”
“You’d better shut up!” Giving Qin Poxiao a warning glance, Yue Xiyi turned his gaze back to Yu Yelan, sitting in the corner in a daze. Since waking up in the hospital that day, the little rabbit had been acting strange – sometimes clinging to him tightly, sometimes lost in thought and completely ignoring him.
“The door is on the left side, no need to see you out!” Yue Xiyi’s expression unchanged, he stood up and walked towards the silent little rabbit. This little thing was too abnormal, making him unable to not worry.
“Little rabbit, one dollar to buy your current thoughts!”
Yue Xiyi put a dollar in Yu Yelan’s palm, holding her cold little hand tightly, looking at her seriously.
“Not thinking about anything.” Indeed, it was the answer Yue Xiyi expected, and he had heard it more than fifty times in the past two days.
“Little rabbit, we are the closest of people. Why won’t you tell me what’s bothering you?” He was troubled by Yu Yelan’s self-enclosed appearance. He was used to the pure little rabbit, and this gloomy look was concerning.
“Ye, I want to move out,” Yu Yelan hung her head, not daring to look into Yue Xiyi’s eyes.
“What did you say?” Yue Xiyi asked softly, but the dangerous atmosphere grew stronger.
“Ye, I want to move out,” Yu Yelan repeated, biting her lip.
“Why? Although I have a father who is a king, I’m still Yue Xiyi. Nothing has changed. We still live in the same place, except for some security personnel. Everything is the same. Why do you want to move out? Where could you even go?” Firmly gripping Yu Yelan’s shoulders, Yue Xiyi felt a sense of betrayal.
“Ye, you are the heir to Canromini, this is an undeniable fact. Someday you will ascend to the throne. We should still separate. Let me leave while I can still let go. Please let me go!
Yu Yelan tried to hold back her tears, but thinking about Ye becoming a distant monarch whom she might never see again made her nose grow sour, and her tears became increasingly uncontrollable.
Tears soaked into Yue Xiyi’s soft sweater. Yu Yalan gripped the hem of his sweater without speaking, but the thought of leaving had not been dispelled. Yue was so kind, caring so much about a little rabbit he picked up, how could she become his burden?
Half an hour later, Yu Yalan left Yue Xiyi’s office to go to class.
Crying for a long time, Yu Yalan’s tears would not stop at the thought of leaving Yue Xiyi. Now she could only go to class with swollen red eyes, kicking fallen leaves on the small path. The autumn atmosphere was getting thicker, and Yu Yalan had never felt so depressed.
Since meeting Yue Xiyi, he had become her entire life.
“Little rabbit,” a low call, unlike Yue Xiyi’s always warm voice, Yu Yalan surprisingly heard a hint of hatred.
“Yang Tongjing, class is about to start, what are you doing here?” Yu Yalan wiped away the tears that had just spilled, mustering a pale smile.
“Little rabbit, be with me,” Yang Tongjing stood under the maple trees with colors ranging from bright red to bright yellow, speaking with a serious expression.
“Yang Tongjing, what joke are you making! Don’t mess around, I’m going to class,” Yu Yalan frowned.
