Chapter 182: These days are very comfortable
Ye Lanzhou realized that Xie Chengyan and the Pei family were not on good terms, so he probably left early.
She turned around, stopped thinking about it, and walked straight to Prince Rui's Mansion.
Unexpectedly, when she was halfway there, someone suddenly grabbed her wrist and pulled her into a dark alley not far away.
It was just getting light, and there was no light in the alley.
But Xie Chengyan's aura was familiar to her. She knew it was him the moment her hand grasped his. The scent of soapberry on his body was familiar to her, but the smell of blood seemed stronger at this moment...
Xie Chengyan's actions were a bit rough, and he pulled her straight into the alley. She then felt a weight on her neck. Xie Chengyan leaned over her shoulders and neck, and seemed to take a deep sniff, which made Ye Lanzhou feel numb.
Then, he spoke slowly, his voice emotionless, and said, "I've been so comfortable these days. Now you can even help me contribute."
Ye Lanzhou didn't expect Xie Chengyan to recognize her. At first, she didn't think about what Xie Chengyan said, but covered her face with her hands and checked whether her human skin mask was still there.
Fortunately, it's still there.
But how did Xie Chengyan recognize him?
"How did the prince recognize him?"
Xie Chengyan loosened his grip and slowly stood up. However, the alley was too dark, so Ye Lanzhou couldn't see his expression. He only heard him speak in a clear and pleasant voice: "I picked out this dress for you. I recognize it."
Ye Lanzhou then realized that she had just taken a set out of the closet when she went out. It was unusual for Xie Chengyan to remember it, but since he was the one who picked it out, it wasn't that surprising.
She finally felt relieved when she found out that her mask hadn't fallen off.
"You haven't answered my question yet." Xie Chengyan tightened his grip on her hand, as if to remind her.
His voice rang in her ears again, and it seemed to be very close to her, so close that she could hear his breathing.
"Have you been comfortable these days?"
Xie Chengyan had just returned to the capital, and she didn't know how much he knew about what she had done there. But since he had brought it up, she took the initiative and said, "Your Highness is the one who is free, isn't he? He just left without even saying goodbye."
The tone rose, and there was a hint of coquettishness in her voice. To Xie Chengyan, it sounded much more pleasant than when the two had just met.
He seemed to enjoy it very much. He raised his hand and put his arm around Ye Lanzhou's shoulder, explaining in a low voice, "I had something important to do in Southern Xinjiang, so I left in a hurry. I didn't tell you because I was afraid you would worry."
"You just said I knew all your secrets, and then you left without saying goodbye. Is your Highness trying to make fun of me?"
In the darkness, Xie Chengyan saw Ye Lanzhou's upturned eyes. Even without her clothes, he could recognize her from them. Her eyes were so alluring that he couldn't help but linger.
As soon as Ye Lanzhou finished speaking, Xie Chengyan pecked the corner of her lips lightly. It wasn't very strong, but the warm touch of his lips made her ears quickly start to feel hot.
He asked in a low voice, "Are you angry?" The words sounded very gentle in Ye Lanzhou's ears.
Ye Lanzhou felt like he was dreaming. Was this still Xie Chengyan?
It was really hard for her to associate the person in front of her with the person who almost killed her.
His grip was so strong that he pinched her so hard that she couldn't breathe, but now he seemed like a different person, and even his movements towards her were much gentler.
