Chapter Twenty-Nine: She did it because she felt sorry for him.



Yun Tangyin is extremely vigilant.

Although she had a cheat-like Taobao space to rely on, this space was completely non-aggressive, and she dared not buy any particularly conspicuous self-defense weapons for fear of arousing Fu Yucheng's suspicion...

Yun Tangyin was genuinely terrified that those reckless people would break into her room at night.

So if she could, she really wanted to stay by Fu Yucheng's side every step of the way.

Even... I'd rather sleep on the floor in his room.

Personal safety is more important than reputation.

Perhaps because he saw that Yun Tangyin was really scared, Fu Yucheng's tone softened a lot: "Don't be afraid."

He stretched out a rough, large hand and grasped Yun Tangyin's hand directly, gently rubbing her hand twice with his thumb: "Let's go get some hot water together."

Yun Tangyin immediately nodded, picked up the kettle, and followed Fu Yucheng to the boiler room to get hot water.

With Fu Yucheng by her side, Yun Tangyin felt extremely safe.

only……

In the boiler room, Yun Tangyin encountered the same group of people again.

"Well, it's just that we don't have enough money. We can't afford the nice rooms upstairs, so we can only sleep in the dormitory."

"It's okay, we're all buddies, what's wrong with sharing the night? Besides, our big brother probably won't have time to sleep tonight, hahaha!"

"Hey brother, look..."

Those people were also holding thermos flasks. The moment they saw Yun Tangyin, they lowered their voices and nudged each other.

The guy with the triangular eyes was smoking a cigarette, and when he saw Yun Tangyin, his mouth practically stretched to his ears.

However, with Fu Yucheng nearby, their teasing only lasted a few seconds before being scared off by Fu Yucheng's gaze.

After preparing the hot water, Fu Yucheng used one hand to protect Yun Tangyin as they went upstairs.

Fu Yucheng could sense that they had some ill intentions, but even so, he couldn't just beat them up unless they provoked him.

Fu Yucheng felt as if there was a tightness in his chest, and his expression turned pale.

After escorting Yun Tangyin back to her room, Fu Yucheng put down the enamel basin and said very seriously, "I will guard your door tonight."

Yun Tangyin was still preparing her words when she heard this and was stunned for a moment.

He... was going to stand guard at his own door?

In just a moment, Yun Tangyin understood.

Since the other party hasn't done anything to him yet, Fu Yucheng can't take advantage of his status to do anything to them. Although they are engaged, they haven't officially married yet and can't live together.

Fu Yucheng stayed by her door overnight; this was the best solution he could think of at the moment.

It would be a lie to say I wasn't moved.

Yun Tangyin looked at Fu Yucheng and finally nodded.

It was completely dark by now.

After a quick wash and brushing her teeth, Yun Tangyin prepared to change into her pajamas and go to sleep.

After a day of traveling and half a day of mental stress, she felt completely exhausted.

But... for some reason, she just couldn't fall asleep while lying in bed.

Yun Tangyin tilted her head and looked at the tightly closed door. Although she couldn't see the outside, she guessed that Fu Yucheng was probably still outside the door.

She pursed her lips, clutched the corner of the blanket, and whispered, "Fu Yucheng?"

Through the door, a deep, steady male voice came clearly: "I'm here."

The voice seemed to have a magical power, perfectly massaging Yun Tangyin's tense nerves and instantly relaxing her.

Perhaps because Yun Tangyin didn't speak, Fu Yucheng took the initiative to ask, "What's wrong?"

Yun Tangyin shrank her face further into the blanket, lowered her eyes and thought for a moment: "Aren't you cold standing at the door?"

Fu Yucheng paused noticeably: "...I'm not cold, don't worry about me, you should rest."

How can we ignore this?

What if I catch a cold at the door? How am I supposed to get around tomorrow?

But if Fu Yucheng goes back to his room to sleep, she gets scared...

Yun Tangyin clutched the blanket, looking extremely conflicted.

"Do you have a place to sit outside?" Yun Tangyin asked after thinking for a while.

But then came Fu Yucheng's soft chuckle: "Hmm, I've moved a chair."

Yun Tangyin asked again, "Are you wrapped in a blanket?"

Fu Yucheng answered quickly: "No."

Yun Tangyin immediately sat up and opened the door.

As soon as she opened the door, she saw Fu Yucheng sitting upright in the doorway, his clothes still impeccably dressed, and his back ramrod straight as he sat in the chair.

Yun Tangyin thought to herself, if he sits like this all night, he'll probably get hemorrhoids if he doesn't suffer from lumbar muscle strain...

Fu Yucheng was also surprised when Yun Tangyin suddenly opened the door.

Yun Tangyin pursed her lips, and in the end, worry overcame fear: "Why don't you go back to your room and sleep? We have to travel tomorrow, and your body can't take sitting like this all night."

Looking at Yun Tangyin's worried expression, Fu Yucheng smiled and said, "It's alright, I'll protect you."

But Yun Tangyin nudged his shoulder and said, "Go back and rest!"

Since the two of them lived next door, if all else failed, she would lock the door tightly and then loudly call Fu Yucheng over if anything happened.

Fu Yucheng couldn't persuade Yun Tangyin otherwise, so he finally nodded, but before leaving he reminded her again: "Be sure to call me if anything happens."

Yun Tangyin nodded emphatically, and after pushing Fu Yucheng back into the room, she went back to push the sofa and table to the doorway to block them.

Only then did he lie back down on the bed.

As for Fu Yucheng...

It wasn't that he was careless; it was mainly because he brought his trusted subordinates with him this time, all of whom were very capable, and the room arrangements were something he had specifically thought out.

These men guarded Yun Tangyin's room at the very back.

If those street thugs dare to sneak up and harass Yun Tangyin, they will be able to detect and protect her immediately if she makes any noise.

He stood guard outside Yun Tangyin's door so she could sleep peacefully, but...

His mother, however, felt sorry for his health and told him to go back to sleep.

Just thinking about this made Fu Yucheng's lips curl into a smile.

He definitely couldn't sleep. Even after Yun Tangyin pushed him back to his room, he still kept an eye on the sounds from next door and quietly watched over her.

The guesthouse was quiet in the dead of night.

As all was quiet, the stars shifted and the sky gradually brightened; the night was finally over.

Fu Yucheng, who spends most of his time in the military, has a very precise biological clock and will open his eyes at the appointed time. Moreover, he hadn't slept much that night. He glanced at his watch, got up, straightened his clothes, and opened the door.

The night was quite quiet, not as bad as I had imagined.

As soon as Fu Yucheng opened the door, he looked into Yun Tangyin's room, preparing to wake her up.

But upon closer inspection... Fu Yucheng's expression changed.

Yun Tangyin's door was wide open.

The sofa and table were scattered haphazardly in the room, but Yun Tangyin was nowhere to be seen.

Fu Yucheng rushed into the house, frowning as he shouted, "Yinyin?!"
