Chapter 212 Do you want me to stay overnight?
Seemingly sensing someone's condemning gaze, Feng Tianyu suddenly turned his head to look, his expression cold and laced with warning.
Shi Lang shivered from the glare he received, only then noticing that Ye Wanxi's complexion was truly terrible. He quickly stepped forward and asked with concern, "Are you alright? Why do you look so pale? Are you feeling unwell?"
Ye Wanxi waved her hand to indicate that she was fine.
"It's too far away, so it's a bit difficult to send things over by the paper figures. It'll be fine soon."
What Ye Wanxi didn't mention was that she had recently received some feedback from the Heavenly Dao and golden light of merit.
Otherwise, with her current abilities, this little paper figure would probably crash halfway through its flight.
Upon hearing her words, Shi Lang couldn't help but feel a little guilty. If his brother hadn't gone so far and done something that caused him to provoke the wrong people, he wouldn't have had to go to such lengths to worry about him.
That brat deserves to be taught a lesson; he should suffer a bit!
"Once he comes back and finds out what happened, my parents probably won't let him run around like that again."
“It might not be his fault. Let’s wait until he comes back.” Ye Wanxi said, as if she had thought of something, and instructed, “Tell him to open the window at six o’clock tomorrow morning to receive the paper doll. After he gets the talisman, book the earliest flight back immediately. As the final moment approaches, those people might try to find him in advance. If he unfortunately runs into them, it will be too late for him to come back.”
"Six o'clock tomorrow morning, right? I'll tell him in a bit."
"Yeah, I'm tired, I want to sleep."
Seeing that she was truly exhausted, Shi Lang decided not to disturb her any further: "Then I'll be going now."
"Um."
As soon as Shi Lang left, Ye Wanxi reached out and touched Feng Tianyu: "Are you angry?"
Feng Tianyu was indeed a little angry. He pulled the blanket over Ye Wanxi and frowned, saying, "Why not just have someone take it to him? Why go through all this trouble?"
"Airplanes aren't available all the time, and having someone deliver them might attract attention. If someone else gets caught up in it, I don't have the resources to pull them out."
That makes sense, but seeing Ye Wanxi like this still made Feng Tianyu feel uncomfortable.
"Don't push yourself like that again next time. You can discuss anything with me. Don't bear everything alone, and don't hurt yourself for others."
After hearing this, Ye Wanxi did not agree without hesitation as she had done before. Instead, she muttered somewhat stubbornly, "But he is your friend, and you certainly don't want anything to happen to him."
Feng Tianyu was stunned, then suddenly realized something: "You did this for me?"
Ye Wanxi blushed slightly and pulled the blanket up to cover most of her face: "I don't want you to be unhappy, and I want to do something for you."
You used to pamper me, protect me, and always revolve around me. Now I want to help you and make you happy too.
Feng Tianyu felt a warmth in his heart because of Ye Wanxi's words, but he still had to be strict when necessary.
"I'd be upset if something happened to him, but wouldn't I be sad if something happened to you?"
"I'm just a little nervous right now, nothing really happened, I know what I'm doing."
As soon as Ye Wanxi finished speaking, Feng Tianyu's slightly stern gaze drifted over: "Hmm?"
Ye Wanxi immediately backed down: "Okay, I was wrong."
"This won't happen again."
"Um……"
Feng Tianyu stared at her for a long while, then sighed softly: "Next time something like this happens, you have to discuss it with me. Your behavior makes me feel useless."
Ye Wanxi was stunned. She had never imagined that her senior brother would have such thoughts, because in her eyes, her senior brother was always omnipotent and could do anything he wanted to do.
She forgot that she was still herself from her previous life, and her senior brother was still her senior brother from her previous life. But the current senior brother had no memories, no magic power, and was even in poor health.
Realizing this once again, Ye Wanxi didn't feel any disappointment at the shattering of her idol image; instead, she felt a little heartache and sadness.
"Don't think like that. In my eyes, you've always been the best." Ye Wanxi paused after saying this. "From now on, I will definitely discuss everything with you and will not act on my own or hide things from you like this again."
A smile finally appeared on Feng Tianyu's face: "Go to sleep, I'll stay here with you."
"Aren't you going home to rest? You've had a long day."
Feng Tianyu really wanted to stay the night, but he was worried that things were progressing too fast and would frighten Ye Wanxi, so he just smiled and said, "I'll go back after you fall asleep."
"Oh." Ye Wanxi replied, then seemed to remember something, glanced at the cot next door, and whispered, "Is your car not working? Should we call Mr. Guan to pick you up later? If it's too much trouble, maybe you should stay here tonight."
As soon as Ye Wanxi said this, the atmosphere in the room immediately became subtle.
Feng Tianyu's eyes darkened slightly, and after a long while, he chuckled softly, "Are you trying to get me to stay the night?"
Ye Wanxi's face was burning hot, and she pulled the blanket down a little more, leaving only her eyes showing: "I...I'll just stay here. There's a bed for a caregiver next to me."
"If I stay, I'll naturally sleep in that bed. Or does Yuanyuan want me to sleep in the same bed as you?"
"I didn't mean that!" Ye Wanxi couldn't stand the teasing any longer, so she pulled the blanket over her head and ignored everyone.
Feng Tianyu chuckled and quickly pulled the blanket down a bit: "I'm just teasing you. I have a meeting tomorrow morning. Once you're asleep, I'll have Ashi come pick me up."
Ye Wanxi breathed a sigh of relief, but was also a little disappointed: "Oh..."
"After the meeting and signing of the contract tomorrow, if there's nothing else, I'll come and keep you company."
Ye Wanxi felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this. She was already a grown woman, yet she still needed someone to accompany her at all times.
"I'm not a child anymore. You go ahead and do what you need to do. Don't worry about me."
Feng Tianyu remained noncommittal, regardless of whether the person in front of him was a child or not, he needed someone to take care of him.
He firmly believed this.
There is a time difference between where Shi Yuyan lives and the time in China. When Ye Wanxi said that it would be 6 a.m. tomorrow, it was actually 6 a.m. in Shi Yuyan's area.
Shi Yuyan received a call from his older brother late at night, telling him to hurry up and buy the earliest flight home the next morning, and also to open the window at six o'clock sharp to receive the talisman that the master had specially sent to deliver to him.
Shi Yuyan's first reaction after hearing this was, "Could it be that his older brother has been so pressured by his family to get married that he's gone crazy from all the blind dates?"
What kind of master, what kind of talisman or incantation? It sounds like a scam.
You want him to open the window to receive the package? Who sends a package through the window instead of the main door?
Most importantly, Shi Yuyan herself didn't really want to return to China. Her supervisor's research had made some progress recently, and if she ran away and came back now, wouldn't she be skinned alive?
