The atmosphere suddenly became oppressive and somber.
After a while, Zhou Fei suddenly laughed. He wiped his face, and the forced smile looked rather ugly. "I really envy Tang Yue. We were on a ship together, hiding from assassins. He was shot in the stomach. When he was dying, he asked me to pass on a message to you. At that time, I thought, if I let him bleed to death, or kicked him into the waters off Detroit to destroy the evidence, or handed him over to those assassins, wouldn't I have one less powerful competitor?"
"But I'm still scared, because I know that if I do that, we might not even be able to be friends anymore. Wanwan, you said so many years have passed, and countless beautiful women have thrown themselves at me, how come I can't forget you?"
He lowered his hand dejectedly, gazing at Yu Wan with gentle and focused eyes.
Yu Wan leaned back casually, slightly raising her beautiful chin: "It's normal, quite a few people like me."
Zhou Fei paused for a moment, then burst out laughing, completely relieved. Yes, Yu Wan was bright and flamboyant; it was perfectly normal for many people to be attracted to a girl like her.
Yu Wan turned her face away and looked out the window: "Zhou Fei, you are a natural-born champion on the track. You shouldn't waste too much time in Jiangcheng. Go back and continue training."
Jiangcheng is about to undergo a major upheaval, and it's unclear whether the S organization is behind it. Only if Zhou Fei leaves the country can his safety be protected.
"But……"
"By the way, she has been released from prison early."
"Um?"
"She now lives at number 38 on the old street, your former... home, and has a cat named Aifei."
Zhou Fei lowered her head, poking at the rice in her bowl with her chopsticks in a conflicted manner: "Her and I... do you know? She was the one who drugged me back then, and now... I don't know how to face her anymore."
Yu Wan didn't respond. This was a matter between the two of them, and their choice was none of her business.
Clearly, Zhou Fei also realized this, and a pang of bitterness still welled up in his heart. He forced a smile, "Didn't you want to know about Tang Yue? I'll tell you."
For the next hour, Yu Wan listened quietly as the other person recounted how they escaped from a thrilling scene comparable to a Hollywood blockbuster and captured one of the ringleaders.
"The person who escaped recognized you?" Yu Wan frowned immediately.
Zhou Fei touched her nose and shrugged sheepishly: "I've been doing alright overseas for the past two years."
"..." Is that the key point?
Yu Wan hesitated for a moment before asking, "You didn't sneak back to Jiangcheng, did you?" Knowing Tang Yue's style, he would definitely send someone to protect Zhou Fei. And the capital city is currently the safest place.
“Yes.” Facing those sharp and piercing gazes, Zhou Fei lacked confidence: “Anyway, it’s all about going back to China. Jiangcheng and Beijing are the same.”
Yu Wan sighed and said helplessly, "Pack your things and move to my place first."
Zhou Fei's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Tang Yue probably doesn't like interacting with strangers, so you'll have to squeeze in with Meng Shen for now."
Zhou Fei exclaimed in shock: "You and Tang Yue are already living together?"
Yu Wan ignored his fuss and began to eat. The food was a little cold, but it was still very delicious.
Half an hour later.
A red Aston Martin pulled up in front of a villa.
A new family just moved in next door.
Yu Wan saw the petite girl standing in the center of the courtyard, raised an eyebrow slightly, and walked over. The girl's move in apprehending the thief that day was clean, neat, and very cool, leaving a deep impression on her.
Most importantly, I still owe her a thank you.
"Thank you for helping me catch the thief last time."
Jiang Xinyun extended her hand: "Hello, Miss Yu, I am Jiang Xinyun. I just transferred to the Finance Department of Jiang University. I will be your classmate from now on."
So the female bodyguard Tang Yue was talking about was her! Yu Wan was a little surprised and shook her hand back: "Hello." The other person's fingers were long and slender with strong knuckles, and the pads of her fingers were covered with thick calluses.
"Zhou Xiaozhou, long time no see!"
Meng Shen rushed up excitedly and hooked her arm around his shoulder: "You seem to have gotten shorter. I remember you used to be very tall."
Zhou Fei gently nudged his stomach with her elbow. "I'm 1.83 meters tall, where am I short?"
Seeing this delicate and handsome young master run out wearing only slippers, his exposed toes red from the cold, he sighed helplessly, feeling as if he had been transported back five years, acting as both a mother and a younger brother, serving two little darlings all day long.
"It's cold outside, let's go inside and talk." Zhou Fei doesn't have many friends. He's lost contact with all the brothers he used to fight with years ago. Now, he only has Meng Shen and Yu Wan as his two closest friends in China, whom he cherishes immensely.
Meng Shen turned to the side and waved to Yu Wan: "Master Yue made you a chocolate cake, it was delicious."
Yu Wan's lips curled slightly: "He can bake too?"
She nodded to Jiang Xinyun and walked towards her villa, her expression calm but her steps light.
Zhou Fei felt a pang of sadness. She turned her head to meet Meng Shen's probing gaze and said helplessly, "I know what you want to say, but I don't have those feelings anymore. Can't I even mourn for a second?"
Meng Shen patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly, "Brother, I'm a little sorry for you. I've already confessed everything about your crush on Yu Xiaowan under Master Yue's suppression. Take care of yourself."
Zhou Fei froze. To this day, he still remembered the scene of Tang Yue's unerring accuracy, powerful and awe-inspiring.
"Oh no, oh no, oh no, I'll have to pre-order a coffin first..."
As soon as you step into the villa, the aroma of cake fills the air.
