Soon, they reached to the main gate where they had to separate and go their own ways.
Mo Yichen also turned towards his car along with Yang Le. He felt someone pulling his shirt fabric. He turned back only to see Li Jie clutching his shirt fabric between his nimble, pale fingers and his head hung low. Mo yichen looked at the young man who was standing in front of him like a child who had committed a mistake. It was almost impossible to connect the him now and when he was in the elevator. Mo yichen stretched his hand to touch the top of the young man's hand but before he could touch his head, the young man raised his head and he heard him saying " goodbye " in his deep yet gentle voice, the young man had a soft smile on his face but his eyes were filled with self loathing and contempt as if he did something he was not supposed to do.
Mo Yichen was stunned by his smile. He knew that the young man in front of him was the most beautiful man he had ever seen but that smile really made him glow.
He fell in daze looking at Li Jie's beautiful face. He heard someone shaking him while calling his name.
Mo Yichen looked back at Yang Le with his cold eyes which caused the other man to flinch in his place.
Yang le looked at his friend who was looking at him as if he would kill him any moment now. " what are you looking at, second brother " he said
Yang Le, who had always maintained a professional relationship in work used Mo yichen's nickname for the first time which caused Mo yichen to come out of the stupor.
He looked back at the place where Li Jie was standing only to see nothing. Li Jie was nowhere to be found. It was like he vanished in air but the cold feeling on his back was more than enough to proof that Li Jie was there and he touched the back of his shirt.
Mo Yichen tried to control his emotions but his heart was in a mess. He could still feel the cold finger tips touching his shirt fabric and hear the words said by the young man in his cold deep voice with a sad smile on his face. It was like he won't be able to see the young man ever again. He wanted to do nothing but find the man and stop him from leaving his side ever again. If he could, he would rather bind the young man by his side.
Mo Yichen stood at the place where Li Jie stood and vowed " Li Jie, you can't run away from my side. I will find you"
--------------------------------------------------------
Li Jie who was driving had no idea that he just got a handsome general as a stalker.
Li Jie who was driving was also thinking about Mo Yichen. He didn't knew that he would meet with Mo Yichen and would end up speaking to him.
" Heh, I am really an omen. I had decided never to interact with Mo Yichen again and I couldn't even control myself from speaking to him " Li Jie said, his eyes filled with self loathing and contempt.
He drove his car to a secluded area and got off with Ying Ying and activated his space making the car and himself vanish and reappear in his space.
He walked in his space. He had always known that his space was good but still he could not help but feel astonished every time he enters.
He looked around his space to note down the things that he is going to buy for the future needs. He was strolling in the area when his gaze fell on the cottage. The cottage was emitting a dark light. He hurried towards the cottage. The darkness was coming from the room which was at the end of the hallways with the lightning sword. He walked towards the room with great difficulty. The more closer he got to the door, it was more difficult for him to move forward with great difficulty he reached the sword which was covered with black fog. The sword with the black blade was already very terrifying but with the black fog covering all the blade. It was like the sword was thirsty for blood.
Li Jie stretched his hand towards the jade handle of the sword but before he could fully grasp the handle, he was thrown to other side of the room by some force. Li Jie spit out a mouthful of blood, it was like the sword was rejecting him. Li Jie was not able to understand the meaning behind this action. He didn't approach the sword the second time. He knew that it would only further anger the sword.
He walked out of the room in search of Ying Ying. He looked at the vast open land but he didn't see Ying Ying. He was panicked, he didn't want to lose Ying Ying too.
He looked around frantically. He was running when his gaze fell on the spirit pond. There he saw Ying Ying who was sleeping over the pond. He rubbed his eyes but it was clear that Ying Ying was not sinking in the pond but was sleeping on it and he looked bigger than usual and his fur more shiny.
He didn't deem it necessary to disturb Ying Ying who was cultivating.
He waited patiently for Ying Ying to come out of the cultivation state.
Soon, the whole pond was shining with a binding light. Li Jie squinted his eyes while trying to see ying ying, he would have stopped ying ying if not for their connection which indicated that ying ying was indeed getting stronger and is in the process of break through.
The binding light was gone in a few seconds and Ying Ying walked out of the pond. He was already a very beautiful pet but after the breakthrough he became even more majestic.
