Han Muzi had a very long dream. In the dream, she seemed to be in an inferno of ??fire that burned her skin until it hurt her. But no matter how hard she struggled, she couldn’t get away.
Her body was still sinking in addition to that, as if she was going to be swallowed by the sea of ??fire.
In the end, a coolness, which came from nowhere, surrounded her in the sea of ??fire. Finally…
The fire disappeared, and then she plunged into darkness again.
She was awakened by the aroma of food. Before she opened her eyes, she seemed to smell food, which made her stomach go hungry.
Han Muzi trembled and then slowly opened her eyes.
The scene that entered her sight was the familiar decoration. Han Muzi glanced around and confirmed that this was her room.
She closed her eyes again and took a breath tiredly.
It felt as if her head had been hit hard, and it brought her unbearable pain.
Food…
Did Yan not go to work? She vaguely remembered that Yan knocked on her door when she woke up in the morning, and then she asked Yan to go to the company first. She also said that she would rush over later.
What time is it now?
Thinking of this, Han Muzi opened her eyes swiftly and sat up. Then, she reached for the phone on the bed.
Probably because she got up too quickly, Han Muzi felt dizzy. Everything before her went dark, and her body fell back uncontrollably.
Her head fell on the soft pillow, and it took a long time for her to recover to her senses.
At the same time, a low male voice rang quite anxiously. “You are up?”
This voice… is so familiar.
Han Muzi opened her eyes again and saw Ye Moxuan’s handsome face.
Why is he here?
Han Muzi thought she saw him in a dream, and she even drove him away.
Wasn’t it just a dream?
Seeing that she didn’t look too good, Ye Moxuan pursed his thin lips and stretched out his hand to help her up before putting a pillow behind her. Then, he said helplessly, “Are you stupid? You’ve just woken up, yet you sat up so quickly.”
He is so considerate…
Han Muzi’s pale lips moved. Just when she wanted to say something, Ye Moxuan took a glass of water that he had prepared and handed it to her. “Drink it first.”
Han Muzi remained quiet upon hearing that.
She took the cup, feeling helpless.
Although he was quite considerate, his tone was commanding when he asked her to drink some water.
This man was born to be a leader indeed.
Han Muzi had a dry mouth. Hence, she drank a half the glass to moisturize her throat and lips before passing the glass back to him.
He took it as usual and put it to the side. Then, he got up and went to the table beside to serve her porridge.
She was dizzy just now, but not anymore. Han Muzi picked up her phone and glanced at it. Yan probably hadn’t returned, seeing that it wasn’t lunchtime yet.
Then where did the pot of porridge on that table come from?
He cooked it?
Han Muzi looked at Ye Moxuan in confusion as he approached her with the porridge and sat down in front of her. Then, he took a scoop of the porridge with a spoon, blew it to cool it down, and sent it to her lips.
However, Han Muzi remained silent. She didn’t dare to eat and continued to look at him suspiciously.
Ye Moxuan was smart, so he understood her thoughts from her expression. His thin lips twitched into a slight smirk. “I asked the chef at home to make this porridge, so you don’t have to be afraid that I would poison you.”
Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing this.
“Come on.” He brought the spoon and bowl to her lips. “Open your mouth to eat.”
Han Muzi protested, “I’m not a kid!”
“But you are sick.” Ye Moxuan’s gaze and movements were persistent, as if nothing that Han Muzi said would change his mind.
This was the first time that he personally fed her something.
Why does it feel so strange? Han Muzi felt uncomfortable and turned her head away; she was simply unwilling to take the mouthful of porridge.
Seeing her stubbornness, annoyance appeared in Ye Moxuan’s black eyes as he directly reached out to pinch her chin to force her to turn around.
“Be a good girl.”
With her chin pinched by quite a great force, Han Muzi struggled for a while, but she couldn’t escape. Then, she growled furiously, “Let me go now. I don’t need you to feed me.”
Ye Moxuan’s thin lips were pursed tightly into a straight line, and his eyes were cold.
“Do you have to always oppose me? You don’t want to eat it just because I’m the one feeding you?”
“No.” Han Muzi shook her head. “I’m just not used to being fed by others. I’m not a child anymore. I have hands of my own.”
However, Ye Moxuan felt that she was resisting him. From the beginning to the current moment, everything that she had done was avoid him. Hence, it was the same now, but she was currently so fragile.
“Not used to it? Start getting used to it from now on!”
“Ye Moxuan, are you crazy? Why should I get used to it?” Anger flared in Han Muzi’s beautiful eyes.
Ye Moxuan sneered and tightened his hold on her jaw. His voice, too, became deeper.
“You think I’m crazy? Who is the person lying on the bed now? An idiot who doesn’t even take care of her body, but she has the audacity to say that she is not a child anymore! Look at you; how are you going to take care of your son this way?”
When Han Muzi, who was still furious just now, heard this, her expression changed drastically, and she stared at Ye Moxuan with wide eyes.
“H-How did you know?”
How did he know that I have a son?
Thinking of that, Han Muzi’s face turned paler. “You investigated me? Ye Moxuan, you didn’t keep your promise!”
Hearing that, Ye Moxuan’s expression darkened, and he had a self-deprecating smile.
“I was right. To you, I am the kind of person who does not keep promises. Muzi, when can you trust me?”
“What about you?” Han Muzi’s volume rose. “You want me to trust you, but what have you done to make me trust you? Did you not know what harm you did to me back then? You promised that you wouldn’t investigate me, yet you did! And you still have the guts to ask me to believe you?”
She was very emotional, but Ye Moxuan’s mood was not much better.
“I found out about it when I went to your place. At the doorway, I saw shoes that belonged to a boy. Do you take me for a fool, or have you underestimated yourself?” he refuted.
Her anger that was originally soaring was extinguished after hearing Ye Moxuan’s explanation that he had only found out it was a boy after seeing the shoes.
She froze and looked at Ye Moxuan, whose expression was quite hurt.
There was a sudden silence at this moment, and Han Muzi could only hear her own panting.
After a long while, Ye Moxuan felt defeated and lowered his eyes.
“Don’t be angry anymore. I’ve promised that I wouldn’t look into your personal details, so I would never do that. Even if someone sent me the information, I wouldn’t even read it. So can you eat now?”
He puts himself so lowly…
Han Muzi’s eyes suddenly turned red, and then she angrily slapped Ye Moxuan’s hand away, spilling the bowl in his hand as her anger flared up.
“Get out! Get out of here!”
