Chapter 163 Don't worry, I'm different from others.
The door closed behind Fang Ke, and the lights in the hallway were also turned off behind him.
Yes's house was dimly lit, but the lights of the distant city shone through the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the placement of the furniture could be vaguely seen.
Fang Ke heard Bei Bei's meows coming closer. She hadn't seen the cat yet, but worried that the water on her clothes would dirty Bei Bei, she took a step back.
Beibei is very perceptive; it almost immediately stopped approaching her, thinking that Beibei didn't want to be close to it anymore, and started meowing pitifully.
"Don't move."
Yes's deep voice rang out in the darkness, and then Fang Ke felt a towel being placed over her head.
"How did you get into this state?"
His voice sounded somewhat displeased and helpless.
Yes wiped the water off her head and face, and when the towel was removed, she could look directly at him in the darkness.
Ye Si paused slightly, lowered his eyes, and said, "I'll go change the towel."
Fang Ke's current appearance is very similar to that of a puppy that has been taken home after being soaked in the rain. She looks a little confused and lost. She doesn't know what happened to her, and her face doesn't look good at all.
Yes wanted to ask, but he didn't. He knew that if Fang Ke wanted to talk, she would eventually. If Fang Ke didn't want to talk, there was no way he could get her to say it.
Ye Si turned his head, about to leave, when the person behind him moved.
Fang Ke reached out and hugged him. Her wet hands were now pressed against the man's snow-white shirt, instantly soaking a large area of the shirt.
"..."
Ye Si didn't even have time to care about the shirt. He was so shocked that he froze on the spot, letting Fang Ke hug him from behind.
Fang Ke rested her head against his back, remaining silent for a long time, her arms tightly wrapped around his waist.
The two remained locked in this stalemate in the darkness for a long time, until the man's voice became low and hoarse.
“…What’s wrong?” he asked.
Having been in this world for so long, this was definitely the first time Fang Ke had shown emotional weakness.
Yes frowned deeply, looking very worried.
He thought he would still get no response, but unexpectedly Fang Ke suddenly pressed against his back and murmured, "Senior, do you like racing?"
"What..." Yes reacted, and said, confused, "I don't like it."
Fang Ke's tone softened slightly, "So what extreme sports do you like? Oh right, you like skiing. Can you stop skiing in the future?"
"...What exactly happened?"
Fang Ke asked inexplicably, "What if you suddenly have an accident while skiing one day?"
Yes remained silent. "...A curse on me?"
Fang Ke nudged him from behind and chuckled softly, "You're worried, aren't you..."
She seemed to have calmed down a lot and slowly let go of Yes. Yes turned around, and their eyes met in the dim light. They were both hiding their own thoughts and looking at each other with complicated feelings.
Suddenly, Ye Si stretched out a hand. Fang Ke stared blankly as the hand reached out to her, thinking that Ye Si was going to touch her face. But Ye Si went past her and turned on the switch on her back.
In an instant, the entire room was as bright as day.
Fang Ke: ...
Under the light, Fang Ke's face was almost deathly pale.
She got caught in the downpour today, and her lips turned blue.
Yes frowned deeply, staring at her face.
Fang Ke regained her usual ease and said with a faint smile, "Thank you for the towel, senior. I'll go back and wash up first."
Yes nearly glared at her before finally sighing and saying, "You don't have to say if you don't want to. Take care of yourself and call me if you need anything."
Fang Ke felt a sense of comfort upon hearing the words "Call me if you need anything."
She smiled and said, "Okay."
After she finished speaking, she casually asked, "I haven't seen you since I came back these past few days. Are you that busy now that you've been promoted?"
"Yes, the project has officially started to move forward, and we've been holding multinational meetings these past few days."
Yes didn't hide anything from her, and Fang Ke nodded in agreement.
But then she frowned and said seriously, "Senior, is there any danger in what you're about to do?"
Yes was taken aback, then fell silent. "Don't worry, I'm different from others."
As if he had already figured out what was wrong with her, Yes felt a mix of emotions, but he couldn't help feeling happy. Fang Ke was clearly worried about him.
He tried to hold back, but he couldn't hold back any longer. He placed the back of his hand on her cold cheek and felt Fang Ke's startled reaction.
Fang Ke looked at him and asked, "What's different?"
Yes smiled gently, "I'll wait for you to discover it."
Fang Ke pursed her lips. Yes's hand had already moved away; it seemed he had only used his hand to test her body temperature.
"Go back and take a hot shower, or you'll catch a cold and get a fever."
Fang Ke nodded, but in the next second, he grabbed the hand that Fang Ke was about to withdraw, his eyes clear and domineering, even revealing a fierceness.
She said in a deep voice, "Then promise me that no matter what you do, you won't get into trouble, otherwise..."
Otherwise, she didn't expect what would happen to her.
However, seeing the words "Yan Nuo died tragically in a car accident" today truly made her feel agitated and confused.
Almost immediately, she thought of the other people, wondering if they were also destined for the same tragic end.
Actually, when Xiao B first mentioned that this world was related to the luck of the male protagonists, Fang Ke already had a guess.
The invaders might try to destroy the world's energy by stealing the protagonist's luck... Now that this speculation has been confirmed, what will happen to the protagonist whose luck has been stolen?
She never expected that the other party would show no mercy and truly want these people to die tragically with their luck exhausted.
Su Yao is quite good at pretending.
Her face was ashen; she could already imagine how the world would change if these people all died tragically.
Just like the main system said last time, the tragic death of a male protagonist will severely impact the stability of the world, leading to a large number of uncontrollable disasters.
Earthquakes, tsunamis, plagues, wars... the world is bound to descend into complete disorder, collapse, and ultimately destruction.
This is no longer just a matter of the safety of one or two people... it concerns the survival of everyone.
Therefore, the five of them must live well.
Fang Ke felt irritated and confused; it seemed she had been forced to shoulder a mission again.
Of course, the man in front of her was the one she cared about the most among those five people.
The thought that Yes might also suddenly encounter various accidents made her feel violent.
If something really happens to Yes, she doesn't know what she will do.
She held Yes's hand tightly, stubbornly demanding an answer from the man.
Yes was slightly taken aback, but after realizing what was happening, a smile appeared at the corner of his eye, and he said, "Okay."
He didn't ask Fang Ke to promise him that nothing would happen to her, because he wouldn't let anything happen to Fang Ke.
Upon hearing him say that, Fang Ke suddenly felt a release of tension, and then her whole body was enveloped in an overwhelming sense of exhaustion.
She gave a weak smile and stumbled forward, but Ye Si caught her with his hand before he could retract it.
Fang Ke nestled in Yes's broad embrace, tugging at his shirt.
"Your clothes are completely stained by me."
"……fine."
"You said it was okay."
After she finished speaking, she rubbed her head against his chest again, wiping all the water onto his expensive shirt.
"..."
Yes was completely frozen, not knowing what to do.
Little did he know, Fang Ke uttered three words that sent chills down his spine.
Hug me.
A tremendous force pulled Fang Ke into his arms, and Yes's strong arms held her tightly behind her. Fang Ke couldn't help but exhale; her back ached a little, but she felt a strong sense of security.
A man's embrace is broad and warm.
Fang Ke recovered from her exhaustion, lifted her head from his embrace, and said with a smile, "So obedient, senior..."
"..." Yes remained silent.
"Then kiss me?"
"...?"
