Chapter 129: Has this dangerous beast been tamed by Wen Duo?
The storm was still raging outside the castle, but inside the house it was quiet.
Wen Duo took Ji Huaishen's hand and walked out of the empty studio.
"It's too empty there, there's nothing fun to do."
She muttered, her eyes darting around:
"No, I want to see what other hobbies you have!"
She didn't forget what a "pervert" this guy was in essence!
The studio is just the tip of the iceberg, right?
There must be other "secret bases"!
Ji Huaishen let her soft little hand hold him, his deep eyes glued to her, with a doting and indulgence that was almost overflowing in them.
To her, he always has only one answer:
"Um."
With approval, Wenduo embarked on a large-scale "adventure".
Starting from the first floor, she pushed open each door one by one, with full curiosity and a little excitement of catching something.
Pushing open the first door, I saw the neat and tidy servant's room, nothing special to see.
Not in.
Close the door decisively.
The next room is also the servant's room.
No going in, no going in.
A bit of a letdown.
Pushing the door open, there was a solemnly decorated meeting room with a long conference table exuding a cold atmosphere.
Boring.
Next is a small living room that is warmly decorated but empty.
It's meaningless...
Behind a series of doors were some ordinary rooms. Wen Duo's determination to "dig three feet into the ground" was gradually frustrated. His cheeks puffed up unconsciously, and his steps became a little impatient.
Ahhhh, why are they all ordinary rooms!
Ji Huaishen followed her closely, and the smile in his eyes deepened when he saw her like this.
Just when Wen Duo was about to give up and was about to accuse Ji Huaishen of hiding the "evidence" too deeply, she casually pushed open an inconspicuous door at the end of the corridor.
A faint, bitter smell of disinfectant penetrated my nose.
Wen Duo was stunned for a moment and looked carefully.
The room was filled with neat medical equipment, and the cold instruments had a metallic luster.
Only then did she realize that this was a small infirmary in the castle.
This is where Chen Yuwei received treatment when she was in a coma.
Glancing over, I saw a figure dressed simply and with an upright posture standing in front of the medicine counter, fiddling with some dried herbs intently.
That back figure looked extremely familiar.
Wen Duo's eyes lit up instantly, and she shouted in surprise:
"Sister Yuwei!"
Chen Yuwei, who was looking down at the proportions of the herbs, turned around when she heard the voice. Seeing that it was Wen Duo, she smiled gently and nodded.
"Um."
She was about to say hello, but her gaze inadvertently passed Wen Duo and fell on the man with a strong presence behind her.
Ji Huaishen stood quietly one step behind Wen Duo, his body straight and tall, but his eyes were as cold and sharp as a beast, stabbing straight at her with an undisguised warning.
That look seemed to say.
Stay away from her.
Chen Yuwei's heart sank suddenly, and she swallowed back the words that were on the tip of her tongue and just pursed her lips.
Sure enough, this man is extremely dangerous.
Beneath his seemingly calm exterior lies an almost beast-like possessiveness and aggressiveness.
Wen Duo, however, was completely unaware. She happily trotted over to Chen Yuwei, affectionately holding one of her hands. She curiously leaned over to look at the fragrant herbs in front of her.
"Sister Yuwei, what are you doing?"
Chen Yuwei suppressed the chill in her heart and returned her attention to the herbs, trying to keep her voice steady.
"Remembering that you mentioned before that your shoulders and neck are prone to soreness, and since we have these herbs here, I prepared some warming compresses. When you feel uncomfortable, you can apply a hot compress, and it will make you feel much better."
"Wow!"
Wen Duo's eyes suddenly lit up like stars, and she was deeply moved:
"Sister Yuwei, you are so nice! I like you the most..."
Before she could utter the word "you", a big hand suddenly reached out from behind and covered her mouth accurately.
"Hmm?"
Wen Duo was startled, then began to struggle in dissatisfaction, her small hands randomly pulling at Ji Huaishen's fingers, and her voice came out vaguely from between her fingers:
"Ji Huaishen...what are you doing..."
Ji Huaishen put his arms around her, half holding her in his arms, but his eyes were still fixed on Chen Yuwei with cold vigilance.
He lowered his head, put his thin lips close to Wen Duo's ear, and said in a low and unquestionable voice, but just loud enough for everyone in the room to hear:
"The only one you like best is me."
Wen Duo: “….”
She was almost so jealous of this jar of aged vinegar!
She finally broke free from his shackles, turned around, raised her blushing face, and pouted at Ji Huaishen angrily:
"You're going too far! Sister Yuwei is a girl!"
Chen Yuwei, who was standing by, suddenly stopped breathing when she heard Wen Duo's almost coquettish complaint.
How dare she...
Talking to Ji Huaishen in this tone?
In her opinion, Ji Huaishen was simply a beast in human skin. His elegance was just a disguise, and he could attack and hurt people at any time.
Shouldn't Wenduo apologize immediately and comfort her?
She even accused?
However, what happened next made her jaw drop.
The man with a strong aura and cold eyes did not get angry after being complained about "excessive", but instead lowered his head slightly.
The fine black hair on her forehead fell down, covering a little of her eyebrows and eyes, revealing a kind of...
A pitiful look?
He asked in a low voice, with a hint of grievance in his voice:
"So you don't like me anymore?"
Chen Yuwei: “???”
Is she hallucinating?
Is this really the Ji Huaishen whose eyes can kill?
What made her worldview collapse even more was that Wen Duo seemed to have become accustomed to this.
She raised her hand very naturally and stroked Ji Huaishen's thick black hair, just like stroking the fur of an insecure large dog. Her tone was sweet and indulgent, with a hint of helplessness:
"I like it, of course I like it. You really are..."
Ji Huaishen didn't seem completely satisfied. He raised his eyes and glanced at Chen Yuwei who was frozen beside him again, then asked Wen Duo stubbornly:
"Who do you like more, me or her?"
Wen Duo was so confused that she could only stand on tiptoe, lean close to his ear, and whisper in a low voice:
"You, of course it's you! I love you the most in the whole world, okay?"
After receiving a positive answer, Ji Huaishen's cold and oppressive feeling disappeared instantly, his brows softened, and even a very faint but real arc of satisfaction appeared at the corner of his mouth.
Wen Duo finally breathed a sigh of relief, and turned to the petrified Chen Yuwei with an embarrassed look, smiling apologetically:
"Sister Yuwei, please don't mind it. He's just... an oversized jealous person. He'll never stop complaining."
Chen Yuwei: "...It doesn't matter."
She forced a smile and almost immediately turned around, pretending to continue concentrating on mixing the herbs on the table, in order to hide the horror and complex emotions surging in her eyes.
So...was this dangerous beast tamed by Wenduo?
No.
She rejected the idea as soon as it came to her mind.
This is by no means domestication.
It was obvious that the beast had retracted its sharp fangs and carefully, even a little clumsily, showed its softest belly to the treasure in his arms.
He tried his best to restrain his instincts, just to keep her in a territory he thought was safe.
But if there was any unusual movement around him, or if he sensed that the treasure in his arms showed any sign of wanting to leave...
That gentle disguise will inevitably be torn apart in an instant, revealing the most primitive, paranoid and terrifying true face.
