Chapter 168: My Heart Loves You
Upon hearing Ye Fei's laughter, Li Yuan felt a surge of annoyance and embarrassment in his eyes.
Just as she was about to teach her a lesson, Ye Fei sensed footsteps outside the courtyard. She hurriedly pushed Li Yuan into her room and then slammed the door shut.
"Xiao Fei, are you there?"
A clear voice came from outside the courtyard. Ye Fei calmed herself down a bit and walked over. "I'm here."
Yu Muhan stood outside, holding a food box in his hands. When he saw Ye Fei come out, he smiled and said, "Judging from your appearance, you've been cultivating from morning till night again, haven't you? I brought you some food from the cafeteria. I don't know if it suits your taste."
Ye Fei took the food box and opened the lid. Inside were all her favorite dishes, and a warm feeling welled up in her heart: "Thank you, Mu Han, these are all my favorites."
Because of her poverty, Yu Muhan had never made any friends after arriving at the academy. Ye Fei was her first friend, so she cherished her all the more.
"I'm glad you like it." Yu Muhan raised his hand and gently rubbed her face. "Cultivation must be very hard, right?"
Ye Fei shook her head: "It's not hard work."
Seeing the slight fatigue on her face, Yu Muhan said with some dissatisfaction, "How could it not be tiring... You need to take better care of yourself, you know?"
Ye Fei gripped the food box tightly and gave her a bright smile: "Yes, I will."
...
Li Yuan stood in Ye Fei's room, looking around with his eyes.
Her room was clean and tidy, with items arranged in an orderly manner.
At that moment, his gaze was drawn to a book on the table—
"The Classic of Herbs?" Li Yuan picked up the thick book and gently read the words on the cover.
Li Yuan flipped through a few pages and glanced at the book; the contents were all about medicinal herbs.
She said she wanted to be an alchemist, and she wasn't kidding.
The thought of the girl telling him that she would refine pills for him made Li Yuan feel very happy, and he wished he could rush out of the room right now, pull her in, and hold her tightly in his arms.
But if he actually does that—she'll be very angry, won't she?
Li Yuan sat in her chair, his hand involuntarily touching his chest, a smile curving his thin lips.
This time, he could confirm it.
The door opened, and Ye Fei walked in carrying a food box. She immediately saw the boy sitting in her chair.
Ye Fei: "Who gave you permission to sit on my chair?"
Li Yuan raised an eyebrow: "Then where should I sit? On your bed?"
Ye Fei: "..."
Li Yuan glanced at her clean bed, stroking his chin as if he was genuinely considering whether his actions were appropriate: "It's not that it's impossible..."
"Get lost!" Ye Fei wanted nothing more than to throw the food box at him.
Upon seeing him, Ye Fei couldn't help but recall that kiss, her cheeks flushing red. She quickly changed the subject: "You can leave now!"
Li Yuan looked at her and said seriously, "No, you invited me in."
Ye Fei: "..." Please don't make your words sound so strange!
She put down the food box, then, as if remembering something, took out the assembled hidden arrow, the Seven-Step Deadly Needle, and the Flying Claw from the drawer.
"Give me your hand." Ye Fei glanced at Li Yuan.
Li Yuan did as he was told. Ye Fei pulled open his sleeve and placed the hidden arrow in a suitable position below his wrist.
With a click, the hidden arrow was installed. Ye Fei thoughtfully straightened his sleeve and said, "All done!"
When she looked up, she found that Li Yuan had been staring at her the whole time.
Before Ye Fei could speak, Li Yuan reached out and touched her cheek, then lowered his head and kissed her lips.
He wasn't trying to shut up, and he didn't actually get poisoned.
Ye Fei was startled. Before she could react, the boy's pleasant, deep voice rang in her ear:
"Ye Fei, I love you."
