Chapter 17 - Sleeping Together

The satisfied hunter stood at the door and waited for the rabbit to walk into his trap. After all, he still had a huge bait in his hand…

But after 10 minutes and no movement from the girl, he frowned.

Even if she didn't want to see him, she would have to sleep in the guest room. Why wasn't there any movement?

He thought she was under too much pressure with the door open, so he closed it and put his housecoat back on.

But there was still no movement in the living room. The man frowned, could she have gone out because it was too awkward?

He finally couldn't take it anymore and walked toward the living room.

The girl sat on the floor, half leaning against the side of the sofa. She was looking up and fell asleep with a glass of water in her hand. Most of the water in it had spilled out, making dark water stains on her clothes and pants.

She had cleaned her face. Now she looked fresh, like a priceless jade statue in the dim light.

However, he did not know if he did not pay attention to his hands or if he was too sleepy to clean them in time. There was still a patch of dried blood.

Yun Feng carried her away from the wet ground and walked to the guest room.

He first took a hot towel and carefully wiped her face and hands. Huo Ru was really too sleepy and showed no signs of waking up.

Instead, she whined softly, like a puppy being petted by its owner.

Fortunately, the pajamas she wore yesterday had been washed and dried. Yun Feng returned to his room to bring over his shirt and the small box that Huo Ru had left behind several times.

She was really too small, like a snowflake. If he used a little more strength, she would shatter. Yun Feng's movements were incomparably gentle. Looking at Huo Ru's beautiful body, that unfamiliar restlessness attacked him again. Yun Feng changed her clothes expressionlessly.

Her phone vibrated, the name on it was Sister Lan. In order not to wake the sleeping beauty, Yun Feng immediately hung up.

Sister Lan sent another message. "Are you asleep? Don't worry, I'll go and argue about the role tomorrow. We've been in the company for so long, and the third female lead is going to be replaced. There's no justice!"

There was an explanation for her sudden departure at noon today. It turned out that she had had such a terrible day.

She was like a pitiful stray dog that had never been doted on. When she was wronged outside, she only knew how to silently curl up in the corner and lick her wounds.

Yun Feng gently stroked her hair. His eyes were so deep, even darker than the coldest winter night. Someone had to be responsible for what happened today, right?

He wanted to leave and find his assistant to handle this matter, but Huo Ru had no intention of letting go.

Actually, he had countless ways to make her let go, but Yun Feng convinced himself that it was just for one night. It was okay to let her enjoy this warmth for another night.

The next day, the sun was shining brightly. A ray of sunlight shone through the gap in the curtains that were not drawn tightly and onto Huo Ru's thin eyelids. She opened her eyes in confusion and she saw that she was surrounded by unfamiliar decorations. After a while, she realized that she was no longer at home, she was in the guest room of Yun Feng's house.

Her clothes had been changed into Yun Feng's shirt. After what happened yesterday, she naturally thought that Li Ma had changed her clothes for her.

She rubbed her eyes and got up, she didn't know why she'd slept so erratically yesterday. Other than the half she'd slept on, the other half was wrinkled.

After washing up, she walked out. Nanny Li was carefully cleaning up. When she saw her come out, she greeted her respectfully, "Good morning, Mrs. Yun!"

She had a lot of objections to this address, but Nanny Li refused to take a step back. Huo Ru could only hypnotize herself to accept this address.

"Good morning, Aunt Li." She yawned and rubbed her eyes as she looked at the open balcony. She realized that the furry little monster was no longer there. She double-checked. "Has Dubin been sent away?"

"Yes, don't worry, Madam. There are no more pets in the house. You can use the balcony as usual, I've already cleaned and disinfected it." Huo Ru nodded. "Did you get someone to take good care of it?"

"Madam is kind. Sir specially found a family to take care of it."

Li Ma brought up the warm breakfast for one person. Huo Ru took a sip of porridge and asked, "Where did Mr. Yun go? Is he still sleeping?"

Although what happened last night was very awkward, Huo Ru felt that the two of them still needed to talk in detail. After all, their family structure was unclear, the weekend was a good time to talk.
