The additional explanation made Ye Moxuan take another glance at Han Muzi. His expression was quite profound, but he didn’t know what to take from her words. After a moment of silence, he said in a soft voice, “You don’t have to explain anything to me.”
His tone was devoid of any emotions, so Han Muzi couldn’t tell what he was feeling. She looked at him in the eyes for a while before asking, “You don’t blame me for not telling you about my family?”
As the night had fallen, the street lamps were gradually lit up. The last ray of sun that shone through the sky was slowly replaced by the darkness. It was relatively quiet as Ye Moxuan slowly drove the car before he spoke, “The time will come when you want to tell me.”
His reply came after what seemed like a lengthy pause and Han Muzi didn’t know what to tell him. However, she felt that there wasn’t a huge change in Ye Moxuan’s emotions, so he probably did not blame her over this. After giving it a ponder, Han Muzi thought, Well, it’s just a phone call. What’s there to be angry about? I’m probably being too sensitive because I feel guilty. With that in Han Muzi’s mind, she allowed the thought to pass.
Soon, they had arrived at their new place. The environment around this neighborhood that Ye Moxuan found was serene. It was an apartment suite in a neighborhood that was better managed than the previous one and even had an access card to enter and exit the building.
Both of them took the elevator to the sixth floor. Throughout the entire journey, Ye Moxuan had been holding the luggage with one hand and her hand in another. When both of them walked out, Ye Moxuan said, “You are the only tenant on this floor. There won’t be any disturbances in the future.”
Han Muzi felt that her ears had warmed up at this. Does he still remember the incident that night?
“It has been so long since then. How are you able to still remember it?” Han Muzi couldn’t help but grumble for a bit.
“Remember what?” While taking the keys, Ye Moxuan looked at her.
The lights in the corridor lit up when the sensor in the spotlight sensed them. As Ye Moxuan was tall enough, he was basked in the light when he turned around. Han Muzi only wore flats today and from her perspective, she realized that Ye Moxuan had prominent facial features and half of his handsome face was in the dark. He looked at her with a slight curiosity in his narrowed eyes.
Have I been overthinking? He isn’t thinking about that at all? At that instant, Han Muzi felt that she had judged him too much and shook her head under his gaze. “Nothing. Just open the door.”
Ye Moxuan pursed his lips as he opened the door without another word. Then, he went to switch on the lights with Han Muzi right behind him.
Han Muzi had placed her full faith in him. It wasn’t until after she entered the house and saw the design and arrangement that she felt she made the correct decision by completely trusting him. The room was immaculate that she could not see a speck of dust and the furniture looked brand new as well.
Once she entered the room, she saw a huge balcony with various plants in front of her. Her eyes lit up when she saw this. “Why are there so many plants and flowers?” Han Muzi loosened her grip on him and ran toward the pots of plants. After that, she bent down to smell the fragrance of the flower with her long hair falling to her waist.
The lights at the balcony fell on her gently. When Ye Moxuan saw this, he couldn’t really explain his feelings at that moment; he just felt that the softest part of his heart was touched.
Back when Ye Moxuan was at Han Muzi’s previous apartment, he noticed the slight fragrance coming from her balcony. Curious, he went to her balcony and realized that there were many plants there. Hence, when he was designing this house, he thought that she would like it, so he asked someone to put some plants on the balcony. It seemed like he had made the right decision in the end.
“Don’t just look at the plants. Let me show you your room.”
Han Muzi acknowledged him when she heard him address her, then she turned around and entered the apartment with Ye Moxuan.
Ye Moxuan didn’t really introduce the arrangement of the living room to her and took her directly to the room. “This is your bedroom. You’ll be sleeping here from now on. There is a bathtub in the bathroom and I’ve already prepared all the toiletries.”
Han Muzi turned around to look at the washroom. Indeed, everything had been prepared, and it was a complete set of toiletries. The bed and blankets had also been well prepared. Even the dressing table was full of different skincare and makeup products.
When she saw this, Han Muzi was quite surprised. “Don’t tell me that you’ve even prepared clothes for me?” With that, she walked to the wardrobe quickly and she was stunned after opening it.
Indeed, he had prepared everything for her—just as she had assumed. No wonder he told me that I just need to be here without anything else earlier. Seeing everything that had been prepared for her, Han Muzi suddenly felt that her luggage was not really needed.
Then, she felt a warm embrace around her. Ye Moxuan had wrapped his arms around her waist as he said in her ears hoarsely, “You’ll be staying here from now onward.” When he spoke, his warm breath fell on her ears. She felt as if the warmth had entered her bloodstream and flowed into her heart at that instant.
Han Muzi felt quite touched, but after thinking about it, she still said, “I-I’ll pay you the rent.”
Upon hearing that, Ye Moxuan, who had been hugging her, froze.
Before he misunderstood her, she quickly explained, “Your grandfather already hates me so much now. If I spend your money and stay at your place again, I will—”
Han Muzi felt his embrace tightened before she finished her sentence. After that, he responded to her coldly, “We’re going to be together forever.”
When Han Muzi heard that, she was quite shocked, but before she could react, Ye Moxuan had already kissed her neck. “So, don’t worry about anything. What’s mine is yours too.”
What’s his is mine too? Han Muzi blinked. Just as she wanted to say something, she felt Ye Moxuan’s kisses slightly moving up to her neck and settling on her ear lobe.
When his lips touched her ear lobes, Han Muzi felt as if electricity had pulsed through her. A numb feeling spread from her heart to her limbs as she stiffened, not being able to move an inch. Right after that, Ye Moxuan’s lips moved down again and kissed the nape of her neck over and over again.
Goosebumps rose on Han Muzi’s entire body. It’s too quiet here. If he continues to do this, something might really happen. Although we have already confirmed our relationship, I don’t want this to happen so soon. When she thought of this, Han Muzi stuttered, “I-I’m going to take a shower.”
The person behind her paused his movements and chuckled in a low voice. “Together?”
Han Muzi was speechless upon hearing that. She was so shocked that she couldn’t utter another word and her eyes were wide open.
Just when she thought that he was going to do something to her, Ye Moxuan stood straight and pinched her neck lightly. “Off you go.”
She stood frozen to the ground as her legs were numb.
“Not going now? Or do you want me to carry you there?”
Only at this moment did she start to move arduously and she quickly went into the bathroom.
