Everyone has childhood traumas, just like the impact of Yuwen's parents' death on his immature mind at the time. But for some people, the traumas are nothing compared to what they experienced in childhood.
For example, Feng Guang is afraid of the dark and ghosts, simply because she watched horror movies when she was young and ignorant. So whenever she falls into darkness, she always thinks that something harmful will suddenly rush out of the darkness. Indeed, modern society emphasizes science, but she herself can time travel, so what's the point of talking about science?
Yao Feng only dared to park his car a few hundred meters away from the Xia family mansion. From what little he knew, Xia Chao was a big shot that ordinary citizens couldn't afford to offend. If Xia Chao saw his daughter getting out of his car, he was worried that his life would be in danger.
Although Yao Feng is somewhat involved in the entertainment industry, he believes that art originates from life. Just like those dramas about wealthy families, there might actually be some super-rich people who disregard human life.
Yao Feng wanted to persuade Duan Mu to stop seeing him off, since it wasn't dark yet, but Duan Mu didn't even glance at him and got out of the car with Feng Guang, which made Yao Feng so angry that his liver hurt.
The term "Xia Family Mansion" doesn't mean that this villa belongs to the Xia family, but rather that the entire street belongs to the Xia family. So Yao Feng thought that if he parked the car far away, Xia Chao wouldn't know, but that was just wishful thinking.
Duan Mu held Feng Guang's hand and asked her in a low voice, "Can you still sleep alone at night?"
He would have been fine if he hadn't brought it up, but as soon as he did, Feng Guang's face turned very pale. "I can't sleep."
After dark, she was certain that she would inevitably think of that scene.
"If you get scared, just call me." He chuckled, then lowered his head and kissed her forehead. "If Fengguang wants to stay at my place, that's fine too."
She was immediately tempted, but soon she thought of her father and could only shake her head with a heavy heart, "I've been looking for you these past few days, and my dad has already had quite a few complaints."
Not only that, Xia Chao also set a curfew. Unless there was something very important, such as a banquet for socialites, she could not go home after 8 p.m. Otherwise, Xia Chao would personally bring people to find her. Even if she had to attend a banquet, she could only return before 10 p.m.
Thinking about the scene of Xia Chao leading people to arrest her, she realized that it was indeed possible. There was nothing that a prominent figure like her father wouldn't do.
Duan Mu expressed his regret, but he didn't really have that idea. Letting a girl live in a single man's apartment would be a very irresponsible thing to do. He smoothed her hair, which was slightly messed up by the wind, and said, "Don't be afraid. I'm here. No one can hurt you, not even a ghost."
For some reason, Feng Guang felt much more at ease, and she smiled sweetly, "Then I'll call you tonight."
"Okay." He smiled.
She tiptoed and kissed the corner of his lips again, said goodbye, and then skipped away.
"Isn't this sickeningly sweet?" Yao Feng stood behind him, rubbing his arms, goosebumps rising on his skin. "Duan Mu, you're not young anymore, why are you acting like a brat?"
Duan Mu glanced at Yao Feng and chuckled, "You don't understand."
"Seeing you all like this, I don't want to understand anymore."
"That would be perfect." Duan Mu got into the car. "You have quite a bit of savings now, it's time to find a better girlfriend, at least... she won't be a disappointment."
Yao Feng paused, then his expression turned extremely grim. "Duan Mu!"
