Then Ye Ningwan asked.

"Pei Fengzhi, are you hiding something from me?"

Ye Ningwan's beautiful face slowly drew closer to him, her cat-like eyes reflecting his innocent appearance at that moment.

How could that be?

Ye Ningwan stared intently at Pei Fengzhi.

The person in front of her looked so sincere, but Ye Ningwan couldn't see a trace of his true feelings in those gentle phoenix eyes, which made her even more uneasy.

She frowned and asked again.

"Are you really not hiding anything from me?"

Pei Fengzhi chuckled and pinched Ye Ningwan's cheek.

What do you want to ask?

Ye Ningwan bit her lip, thought for a moment, and then grabbed Pei Fengzhi's tie, closing the distance between them.

The two were almost touching lips.

"Why did the old man release you so quickly? And why did he even try to kick you out? Is there something going on between you two in private...?"

The faint medicinal scent emanating from Ye Ningwan wafted into Pei Fengzhi's nostrils, making him want to get closer to her.

Why do you sound like you're jealous?

Noticing that Pei Fengzhi seemed to want to kiss her, Ye Ningwan suddenly cupped Pei Fengzhi's face, stared into Pei Fengzhi's eyes, and said with displeasure.

"Answer the question directly, I thought you could dodge it! Why does the old man suddenly want to kick you out? I have a feeling that you two are plotting something in private, is there something I can't know?"

Pei Fengzhi sighed softly and had no choice but to speak to Ye Ningwan.

"Don't be angry, I'll tell you everything."

Ye Ningwan raised an eyebrow, signaling Pei Fengzhi to speak quickly.

Then Pei Fengzhi gave instructions.

“My father was indeed thinking about my safety and asked us to move out of the main house and live alone first.”

"There are many people and a lot of gossip in the main house. If something like what happened before happens again, I'm afraid I won't be so lucky."

As Pei Fengzhi spoke, he waved his hand at Ye Ningwan.

Ye Ningwan looked at Pei Fengzhi's hand, which was still thickly wrapped in gauze, and her originally sharp gaze suddenly softened.

"So, the car accident you had back then wasn't a simple car accident?"

Based on what had happened during this period, Ye Ningwan suddenly understood some things.

Pei Fengzhi gently shook his head.

"I can't remember what happened back then; my memory is always vague."

"But Jiang Yinglin told me that the cause of the car accident was that a driver who was driving an oil tanker was fatigued and suddenly dozed off, crashing into my car. My car overturned and was crushed under his car."

"I was seriously injured at the time. If my men hadn't arrived and risked their lives to save me, pushing me out before the oil tank exploded, I would have died within the blast radius."

"I also suffered brain damage from the shockwave of the explosion, and the blood clot in my brain has not yet dissolved."

Ye Ningwan pondered Pei Fengzhi's words.

First of all, there was indeed a blood clot in Pei Fengzhi's brain, which she had verified by taking her pulse. Although she couldn't verify Pei Fengzhi's amnesia, she really couldn't think of any reason why Pei Fengzhi would tell her such a lie.

Moreover, Pei Fengzhi seemed to have always mistaken her for someone he considered his ideal woman.

Thinking of this, Ye Ningwan felt a slight, inexplicable bitterness in her heart, a tightness in her chest, and a sudden, uncomfortable feeling of being unable to breathe.

But clearly, she was also trying to take advantage of Pei Fengzhi. Once she found out the secret of her own background, she would run away and leave this place of trouble.

But what's causing her distress?

Pei Fengzhi also noticed Ye Ningwan's emotional change. He didn't know that in those ten seconds, Ye Ningwan's mind had been racing with so many thoughts.

"What, are you feeling sorry for him?"

Ye Ningwan finally snapped out of her daze, absentmindedly responding as she tried to shake that emotion out of her mind.

"Um……"

However, the next second, Ye Ningwan felt her body lighten, and she saw Pei Fengzhi suddenly stand up from the wheelchair. Pei Fengzhi then picked her up in a princess carry, and the movement was incredibly easy, much easier than the male actors in TV dramas who carry the female lead. She didn't look like a weak and pitiful patient in the process of recovery at all.

Ye Ningwan instinctively hugged Pei Fengzhi's neck tighter.

The feeling of weightlessness gave her an uncontrollable fear; her face turned slightly pale, and her voice became slightly distorted.

"Pei Fengzhi! Put me down!"

It was rare for Pei Fengzhi to see Ye Ningwan show such a genuine expression.

After spending more than a month together, they appeared to be husband and wife to outsiders, but Pei Fengzhi always felt that there was something between him and Ye Ningwan.

The woman in front of him always wore a mask when she was with him, and never revealed even a trace of her true feelings.

He really, really wanted to dissect this woman, tear off the human skin she was wrapped in, and see what the real Ye Ningwan was really like.

Ye Ningwan's warning came even louder in her ears.

"Pei Fengzhi, put me down right now! Or I'll bite you!"

Like a cat with its fur standing on end, it meowed warningly from its throat, clearly terrified, yet still arching its back and extending its claws in a threatening gesture.

Pei Fengzhi couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips and whispered.

"If you don't want to let go, then bite me."

Ye Ningwan puffed out her cheeks in anger, her cat-like eyes glaring at him furiously, making her exceptionally adorable.

I want a kiss.
