The sudden movement scared Ye Yan until he could feel the scorching breath lingering around his ears, and then he heard Xiao Yu's low yet sexy voice saying, "Why did you come back so late?"

There seemed to be a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.

Knowing that the person behind her was Xiao Yu, Ye Yan Xi's guard suddenly relaxed. Immediately afterwards, a wave of wild joy surged through her heart.

She couldn't suppress her excitement any longer. She turned around and threw herself into Xiao Yu's embrace, her arms wrapped around her as if to confirm that the person in front of her was no longer an illusion. "Great! You're finally back!"

Xiao Yu smiled as he lowered his head to kiss her forehead, "Yes, I'm back."

At this moment, she had been worrying for a long time, and now she felt extremely satisfied. Ye Yan Xi hugged him tightly, unwilling to let him go. Xiao Yu pushed her, but felt that she had used a bit more strength in her arms.

"Don't go..." She was somewhat anxious as she spoke incoherently.

These days, she always imagined that when he opened the door after work, Xiao Yu would be sitting on the big sofa in the living room, watching TV. However, every time he saw this, he was disappointed.

Xiao Yu's arm trembled as he held onto Xiao Yu. Xiao Yu could feel her nervousness and uneasiness, so he could only wrap his arm around her.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

As he said this, it immediately caused Ye Yan Xi to feel wronged. She angrily pushed him: "You escaped from danger, why didn't you say anything to me?"

Xiao Yu sucked in a breath of air and then bent down.

Ye Yan Xi had thought that she had touched Xiao Yu's wound. She was so scared that she immediately panicked. She hurriedly helped Xiao Yu to sit down on the sofa.

There was no light in the living room, so Ye Yan Xi had no way to see how bad his injuries were before she quickly ran to turn on the light. Since the room was still dark, and she didn't know what she hit next, she couldn't help but take a deep breath in pain.

The moment the lights were turned on, Ye Yan realized that she had just bumped into a chair. She silently put the chair back into its original position, then ran to Xiao Yu's side and quickly took off Xiao Yu's jacket. She then undid the buttons on his shirt.

She might have been able to see the scene of the wound splitting open, but the moment she took off her clothes, she could clearly see that the scar on her heart had somewhat fallen off, revealing a new skin that was slightly whiter than the surrounding skin.

This...

She frowned as she stared at the wound. Then, she raised her head to look at Xiao Yu, only to see a faint smile in his dark eyes. She raised her hand in anger, wanting to punch him.

However, before her fist could land on the ground, Xiao Yu grabbed her small hand and pulled her into his embrace with all his strength. With a flip of his body, she pressed her down to the ground.

"Are you angry?"

"What do you think?" Ye Yan Xi realized that she was still very angry after being tricked, "I also …" I was scared to death when I thought the wound split open again. "

"I was wrong."

When he heard the voice, there was a smile on his face. It was clear that he didn't have the slightest bit of sincerity in admitting his mistakes.

"For the past half month, you have not left a single trace. I have been feeling scared all day, afraid that you would disappear completely if you weren't careful. Then, where would I find you?" Ye Yan Xi said with a sobbing tone.

These days were the most difficult period for Ye Yanxin, as if her soul had already left her body.

As he spoke those words in such a carefree manner, the grievances in his heart seemed to have found its way out of his mouth, making him feel much more comfortable.

Xiao Yu looked at Ye Yanxi, whose eyes were slightly red. Her fingers gently caressed her cheeks.

"It's my fault. It's all my fault."

"Yes, it's all your fault. Now that you've suddenly appeared and even scared me, how can you be so shameless? How can you be so shameless!" Although Ye Yanxi was still complaining in dissatisfaction, her heart was suddenly filled with joy.

After a while, she seemed to have thought of something. Ye Yan Xi laughed and couldn't help but tear up. A trail of water instantly ran across her elegant face.

She somewhat embarrassedly turned her head, but she felt Xiao Yu's hands on her face, and then her eyes turned slightly cold. Xiao Yu's lips slowly pressed down on her face, and with love and affection, her heart immediately calmed down. At this moment, she was tightly surrounded by his aura.

She closed her eyes and felt Xiao Yu's breath and his kiss.

His lips slowly extended from the corners of her eyes to her cheeks, the tip of his nose, and finally, his lips. Ye Yanxue suddenly felt that this kiss was more touching than she had ever felt before, and her heart began to beat faster.

The two of them had been separated for a long time. It was as if they had been lovers for many years as they passionately kissed. Only when an untimely growl came from Ye Yan Xi's stomach did they stop.

After separating, Xiao Yu's and Ye Yan Xi's breathing had clearly become disorderly. Then, in order to break the silence, Ye Yan Xi's stomach let out a loud sound. Xiao Yu looked at her stomach, and she felt so ashamed that he wanted to hide in it.

"You haven't eaten?" Xiao Yu lovingly ruffled her somewhat messy hair.

Ye Yanxi embarrassedly nodded.

In the next moment, Xiao Yu's stomach also began to weakly protest. With a "gu gu" sound, the two of them instantly began to laugh.

After Xiao Yu got up, he pulled Ye Yan up, "You just happened to be back. You can eat now." With that, he pulled Ye Yan Xi towards the dining table.

When they arrived at the restaurant, Xiao Yu mysteriously told her to wait outside for a while.

Ye Yan Xi waited for a little while before Xiao Yuxi waved her hand. At the same time, she went out and turned off the lights outside.

There were a few more candlesticks in the dining room, and the orange flames flickered and danced. The small restaurant was particularly bright, and the dusky space seemed very warm. The delicacies on the dining table were all very delicate and tasty.

It was actually a candlelight dinner! Xiao Yu would still do these things.

Which young lady hadn't looked forward to candlelight dinner? Ye Yanxi had once looked forward to it when she was with her beloved, but when she was with Chu Beize, she had never thought about it. Perhaps... From the beginning, she didn't fall in love with Chu Beize, right?

But now, everything was different. Looking at this scene in front of her, this was all prepared for her by Xiao Yu. For the first time in over 20 years, her heart was full to the point of overflowing.

Happiness, right, the simplest and purest kind of happiness!

However, on TV, there seemed to be red wine and flowers for candlelight dinners, right?

However, for Xiao Yu to be able to do this much for her, at least he had a candle.

A surprised and joyous expression still appeared on Ye Yan Xi's face. He turned his head to look at Xiao Yu, but the latter had an unnatural expression when he saw her gaze. He then firmly pushed her to the side of the table.

"Sit here." His voice carried the usual forcefulness and order.

"When did you prepare it?" Ye Yan Xi looked at Xiao Yu sitting down.

Xiao Yu didn't even raise his head as he picked up the chopsticks, and took a bite of the dish. He frowned, "When you were at the supermarket, you and your ex-boyfriend almost had a comeback!"

Ye Yan Xi heard this and almost spat out the water she just drank.

Hearing Xiao Yu's tone, she didn't seem to have any other emotions. This made her feel quite happy.

No, he found out so quickly. It was Jiang Ye who told him this, right? She was in a good mood all of a sudden. He rolled his eyes and joked: "Then why don't you ask him if my old relationship with him has returned to normal?"

Xiao Yu picked out a pork chop from the plate and gave it to her. With an expressionless face, he said, "I'm quite confident in this. After all, I put my body's value and appearance in here."

Is there anyone so narcissistic? Ye Yan Xi rolled her eyes at him. "CEO Xiao, aren't you a little too narcissistic? No, you're too confident."

Xiao Yu stopped her chopsticks and stared at her without blinking. Under the light of the candle flame, his expression lacked a grave and stern expression, adding a touch of gentleness. When a pair of bottomless eyes were focused on you, you would unknowingly sink into them.

"Is that so?" Xiao Yu smiled and looked at Ye Yan Xi teasingly: "Who's the one that's staring at me without blinking?" "Such a silly little girl, huh?"

Her voice was seductive and seductive. Ye Yan Xi suddenly didn't know how to react, so she subconsciously asked in a daze, "Who's infatuated?"

However, in his heart, he was completely bewitched by Xiao Yu's behavior. His face suddenly heated up.

Xiao Yu's gaze never left her, giving her the feeling that he had nowhere to run. In the end, she simply lowered his head and said: "Oh, that light might be too dim, but I was mistaken."

Ye Yan Xi immediately nodded her head and smiled guiltily, "Yes, you must have seen wrongly. So narcissistic."

He could just clench his teeth and refuse to admit it.

She then silently buried her head into the bowl and ate the food, somewhat panicking as she tried to hide her emotions. She was afraid that if Xiao Yu continued to question her, she would be embarrassed.

Xiao Yu seemed to have felt her discomfort and didn't ask any further questions. He also lowered his head to eat. After a while, he seemed to have thought of something and said, "That's right …"

Ye Yan Xi quickly pricked up her ears. She had just eaten something so she couldn't taste what it tasted like anymore. She prayed in her heart that she could quickly eat and stop asking so many questions.

However, Xiao Yu didn't plan on talking about the previous matter. Instead, he asked, "Have you and Madame Jiang ever known each other before?"

She swallowed the meat that was stuck in her throat and raised her head. Her clear eyes burned with the flickering candle light. She vaguely asked, "Why did you suddenly ask this?"

Xiao Yu looked at her, then picked up a Red Braised Fish one by one and placed a piece on Ye Yan Xi's plate. Ye Yan Xi looked at the plate full of fish, her eyebrows curving up.

He didn't expect that he would be able to enjoy this kind of treatment. Hmm, the Red Braised Fish is quite delicious and delicious.

It was clear from one look at the dishes in the hotel.

"Madam Jiang has always treated people with alienation. She does not like being close with others and would not stand up for anyone."

Ye Yan Xi pondered for a moment, "Maybe it's because of Madam He?"

"Madam He?"

"Yeah." Ye Yanxi nodded and took a sip of water, "Madame Jiang said that she heard about me from Madam He. She also said that Madam He and I looked alike, and that it was fate that had brought us together, so she helped me!"

Madam He's face flashed through Xiao Yu's mind as he carefully examined Ye Yanxue. His black pupils suddenly shrank.
