"If you're bored, you can come and chat with me, but not too late. I don't like staying up late."
"And if Yan Yuxuan finds out, you'll have to take responsibility for it yourself."
Ji Manxing was silent for a long time before making a decision amid Bai Rou's repeated pleas.
It's pretty boring to stay in the villa alone anyway, so it would be nice to have someone to talk to.
If Bai Rou didn't lie, Yan Yuxuan's control over Bai Rou was actually not strong, and if she was really discovered, it wouldn't be her fault.
She didn't go against Butler Su's request. It was Bai Rou who came to find her.
"Okay, thank you Sister Manxing."
Bai Rou exclaimed excitedly, then quickly covered her mouth when she came to her senses, her big deer eyes filled with embarrassment.
"Don't call me sister, just call me by my name."
Ji Manxing looked at the lovely Bai Rou, and the unhappiness in his heart dissipated a lot.
The two chatted for a while and then Ji Manxing found an excuse to ask them to leave.
After seeing Bai Rou off, she locked the door and lay down on the bed, but she couldn't fall asleep.
Mr. Yan imprisoned a young girl?
She remembered the flowers she had given Yan Yuxuan before and her impression of him plummeted to the bottom.
It seems she should just work hard.
Making money is king.
After thinking for a while, she couldn't resist the sleepiness and fell into a deep sleep.
She originally thought that Bai Rou showed up last night just to ask her to keep it a secret, but she didn't expect that Bai Rou really kept her word.
He would appear at her door promptly after 11pm.
The relationship between the two people became better and better as they met more and more.
She would play chess and drink tea with Bai Rou in the living room, and they would quietly go to the garden together to enjoy the flowers and chat under the moonlight.
I have to say that Bai Rou is good at chatting and is very lively. With her joining in, Ji Manxing's suppressed emotions were relieved a lot.
That night, as soon as Bai Rou knocked on the door, Ji Manxing couldn't wait to open it.
"Xiaorou."
"Manxing, let's continue yesterday's chess game!"
Bai Rou waved, her big eyes full of smiles.
Soon the two of them came to the table behind the bookshelf and resumed yesterday's chess game.
The two of them played the last game for a long time yesterday, but because it was getting late, they stopped halfway through.
After returning to the room, Ji Manxing did not choose to sleep but pondered for a long time, and finally came up with the key to cracking the problem.
After restoring the chessboard, the two quickly engaged in the duel.
After walking for a long time, Ji Manxing took the last step in disappointment.
"You win."
"Hehe, thanks for letting me go, Manxing."
Bai Rou smiled lightly and began to collect her chess pieces.
"One more round."
As Ji Manxing spoke, he also began to collect his white chess pieces, his eyes full of eagerness to try.
Soon the two of them started a new conversation.
The old clock in the distance ticked away, and time unknowingly came to one o'clock in the morning. However, because the two of them were too focused on staring at the chessboard in front of them, no one noticed that Yan Yuxuan, wearing black silk pajamas, suddenly appeared at the stairs to the second floor.
Ji Manxing looked at the situation in which he was trapped again, biting his lower lip and thinking quickly.
For a moment, her chess playing speed slowed down again. She thought for a while, but still couldn't find a solution. Just when she was about to give up, two slender hands with distinct joints fell into the corner of the chessboard.
The situation that was originally full of crises was broken just like that.
Ji Manxing saw how easily Bai Rou's attack was resolved. She looked up happily and when she saw that the person coming was Yan Yuxuan, she was startled and subconsciously turned to look at Bai Rou.
Yan Yuxuan gracefully stopped his movements without saying a word, and took Bai Rou's hand and walked upstairs.
"What are you doing? Let me go!"
Bai Rou looked at Yan Yuxuan's rudeness and began to struggle angrily.
"Let go? Who told you to go downstairs without permission?"
Yan Yuxuan spoke in a cold voice, his movements not gentle at all, and he quickly pulled Bai Rou to the center of the living room.
Ji Manxing looked at the two people who were on edge, and pushed his wheelchair hard to apologize.
"Mr. Yan, I won't tell anyone about this. Don't blame Miss Bai Rou. I'm too bored here, and I just happened to run into this... Anyway, I won't tell anyone. Don't make it difficult for Miss Bai Rou."
When Yan Yuxuan heard this, he turned his head to look at Ji Manxing, and the look in his eyes successfully scared Ji Manxing from saying anything else.
"This has nothing to do with you."
After he finished speaking, he pulled Bai Rou and continued walking upstairs.
Bai Rou turned around and comforted Ji Manxing when she heard his voice.
"Don't worry, Manxing, go back and rest. He doesn't dare to do anything to me. Nothing's wrong at all~"
After Bai Rou said this, her figure disappeared on the second floor.
Ji Manxing looked at the situation, clenched his fists, hesitated for a moment, and then rushed towards the elevator.
She had to make sure that Yan Yuxuan would not do anything to Bai Rou.
She has already regarded Bai Rou as a friend for such a long time, and she can't still be as indifferent as she was at the beginning.
When she finally got upstairs, she just saw Yan Yuxuan coming out of another room.
Yan Yuxuan watched Ji Manxing catch up and stride towards him.
Ji Manxing stayed where he was without moving.
Yan Yuxuan walked to Ji Manxing and stopped a few steps away.
"I won't do anything to her."
I don’t know if it’s because Yan Yuxuan wasn’t wearing a suit, but his aura wasn’t as strong as usual.
Ji Manxing looked at Yan Yuxuan, whose hair had become much smoother, and apologized softly.
"I'm sorry to trouble Mr. Yan."
"It has nothing to do with you. I know her personality."
"Miss Ji, please go back to your room and rest early."
Ji Manxing watched Yan Yuxuan return to the study, worried that explaining would make things more complicated. Finally, she glanced at Bai Rou's room and silently left the second floor.
A dreamless night.
The next day, Ji Manxing got up and waited for the massage doctor to leave, then went to the restaurant to have lunch.
She looked at the extra set of tableware on the dining table, her heart skipped a beat, and she pretended to speak casually.
"Aunt Li, is Mr. Yan coming down to dine with us?"
"Manxing, this is what Butler Su ordered, right? The butler told me not to disturb you. Auntie is leaving now."
Aunt Li remembered the instructions given by Housekeeper Su in the morning, quickly set the table and left.
Ji Manxing watched Aunt Li leave and stared at the dinner plate opposite him in deep thought.
Could it really be Yan Yuxuan?
Soon, the crisp sound of high heels was heard from the stairs.
Ji Manxing quickly turned his head to look over.
Bai Rou was wearing a short dress with puff sleeves and her hair was tied up in a princess bun. She walked to Ji Manxing gracefully and sat down next to him.
"Hi, Manxing."
She shook her hands and sat down happily, staring at Ji Manxing with sparkling eyes.
Ji Manxing looked at Bai Rou who brought the plate to her, and tried hard to suppress the urge to complain.
"Xiaorou, can you come down now?"
"Yes, Yan Yuxuan might have been caught yesterday, so he let me come down day and night after I promised not to leave the villa."
When Bai Rou said this, she pouted at Ji Manxing in grievance.
"It's a pity that it's only during lunch time during the day."
"That's not bad, at least I can go out for a walk during the day."
Ji Manxing breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the result.
It seems that Mr. Yan is indeed not angry.
Because she didn't know what kind of relationship the two had, she couldn't make a random judgment about their situation.
