Chapter 434: I Can't Save Her
The dean asked her, "What kind of dream?"
“A nightmare.” Ye Fei rubbed her temples wearily. “But I’ve moved on.”
As she spoke, she looked at Li Yuan, who had remained silent.
The voice that had just awakened her senses—it was Li Yuan's.
Seeing Ye Fei staring intently at him, Li Yuan smiled faintly and gently patted her head reassuringly, saying, "It's good that you're alright."
The movements were extremely natural, as if they had done them thousands of times before.
Huang Rongyu lowered her eyes, concealing the fleeting displeasure in them.
The dean still had many questions for Ye Fei, but seeing her tired expression, he held back: "It's late, you should go back and rest. Come to the main hall again tomorrow when you have time, I have something to tell you."
Ye Fei nodded obediently. Just as she was about to get up, a sudden wave of weakness washed over her, and she almost fell.
Li Yuan steadily supported her, and then without hesitation, he picked her up in his arms.
Upon seeing this, Huang Rongyu's eyes widened, and her hands, hidden in her sleeves, clenched tightly.
The elder coughed and said, "Xiao Li, take Ye Fei back to her dormitory and leave immediately. After all, there's a difference between men and women..."
Li Yuan nodded, then immediately picked up Ye Fei and turned to walk out of the main hall.
Huang Rongyu watched as Li Yuan's figure gradually disappeared from sight. Then, he bowed to the Grand Elder and the Dean and said, "Then Rongyu will take his leave first."
Watching Huang Rongyu leave with a gloomy expression, the dean picked up the melon seeds he had tossed aside, took a bite, and his face was full of gossip: "I didn't expect that girl Ye Fei to be so popular, hehe..."
Two men vying for one woman—that scene is truly hilarious!
The First Elder tucked his hands into his sleeves, glanced at the Dean's gossipy expression, and sighed deeply, "Are you stirring things up here? Please, act like a Dean!"
The dean, munching on sunflower seeds, said, "Human love is the most captivating thing... Cang Su, didn't you also have a woman you liked? Why don't you tell me about your romantic history?"
The First Elder's face darkened, and he barely managed to suppress his temper before slapping the Dean away.
...
After returning to the dormitory, Li Yuan put Ye Fei on the bed.
The blanket was gently placed over Ye Fei, and Li Yuan stroked her face, saying softly, "You should rest well. I'll come see you again tomorrow."
He finished speaking and got up to leave, but the girl gently hooked his finger around his.
"I can't sleep." Ye Fei lay on her side, her eyes gently meeting his. "Stay with me, okay?"
Li Yuan: "..."
Upon meeting her gentle, cautious gaze, Li Yuan reluctantly gave in.
He moved a chair to the edge of the bed and sat down, letting Ye Fei hook her fingers around his.
Ye Fei closed her eyes and whispered, "In the Demon Realm, I had a dream. I dreamt of a pregnant woman."
Li Yuan didn't speak, but just listened quietly to her.
"She looked like she was being chased, covered in blood... I couldn't see her face clearly, but she gave me a very familiar feeling."
"Then, just now, during the process of activating the spiritual root, I saw the scene of her being chased again. I saw a light gun piercing her heart. I wanted to save her... but I was powerless."
Ye Fei placed her arm across her eyes, her voice trembling with emotion, "She's the most important person to me, I couldn't save her..."
