Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yi Chengxuan looked at Yue Xin and was silent for a while. He knew what Yue Xin was hinting at. He was still wearing the shirt from last night. There was dried blood on the left and right sides of the shirt. He was wearing suit pants and slippers. It could be seen that not only did Yue Xin not take advantage of him, but she also did not do anything.

Even so, Yi Chengxuan still felt a little uncomfortable. He forced himself to maintain his usual expression and said to Yue Xin, “I want to change. Can you go out for a while?”

Yue Xin agreed readily. “Alright, I’ll go cook dumplings first.”

Did Yue Xin want to cook the dumplings? When Yi Chengxuan realized this problem, he immediately made the best choice. “I’ll do it.”

He could change his clothes later, but it would be too late if Yue Xin entered the kitchen.

Yue Xin looked at Yi Chengxuan in confusion. “Are you not changing?

“I’ll change in a while.” Before Yi Chengxuan left the bedroom, he lit an incense stick. Yue Xin realized that this was the smell that Yi Chengxuan had always had. Aya said that this incense could dissipate the cold and relieve pain, nourishing the spleen and stomach. But now, because Yi Chengxuan hadn’t changed, he still smelled of alcohol. Coupled with his messy hair, it didn’t seem out of place.

Yue Xin followed Yi Chengxuan into the kitchen and watched as he boiled water and made dipping sauce. He even tied his hair with a rubber band he had taken from somewhere.

“Yi Chengxuan, I want to tie my hair too.”

Yue Xin’s black hair was casually scattered and fluttering with her movements.

Yi Chengxuan didn’t say anything. He silently took off the rubber band on his head and tied a ponytail for Yue Xin.

Yue Xin could clearly feel Yi Chengxuan’s slightly cold fingertips sliding through her hair. She suddenly asked, “What do you mean by becoming a hero?”

Yi Chengxuan’s fingertips clearly paused for a moment, but he quickly recovered and calmly changed the topic. “Why did you come last night?”

The current Yue Xin was not easy to fool. Instead of being led by Yi Chengxuan, she asked again, “Is being a hero your goal for helping me?”

Yi Chengxuan didn’t answer. Instead, he fixed the hair in his hand with the last rubber band and walked back to the pot where the water was boiling to start cooking dumplings.

“You saw it last night. Why didn’t you ask last night?” Yi Chengxuan’s hair covered his eyes, so Yue Xin couldn’t see his expression from the side.

But even so, the two of them knew very well that with Yi Chengxuan’s state last night and Yue Xin’s current ability to control people’s hearts, Yue Xin could have easily gotten any information she wanted from Yi Chengxuan last night.

“You said that a gentleman doesn’t take advantage of others. I’m just doing as you preached.” Yue Xin’s answer was reasonable. It looked like an extremely rational answer, but Yi Chengxuan’s breathing was inexplicably chaotic for two seconds. Even he didn’t know why.

“Do you listen to me that much?” Yi Chengxuan chuckled as if he was joking with Yue Xin or testing her.

Yue Xin didn’t mind. In front of the truth she wanted to know, this kind of probing was meaningless. “Don’t you know that I’ll always listen to what you tell me?”

Yi Chengxuan did not answer.

Yue Xin fiddled with her ponytail and didn’t say anything.

Only the sound of boiling water could be heard in the kitchen.

When the dumplings floated to the surface of the water, Yi Chengxuan fished them out and placed them on a plate. He brought a pair of chopsticks for Yue Xin and asked her to hold her bowl. “Let’s eat at the dining table.”

“Oh.” Yue Xin carried the bowl and walked behind Yi Chengxuan. She watched as Yi Chengxuan placed the dumplings on the dining table and sat down at the head of the table.

Yi Chengxuan didn’t sit down. Instead, he returned to the bedroom to change.

When he came out of the bedroom, he returned to his usual appearance. There was a faint sandalwood scent on his body, as if the Yi Chengxuan Yue Xin saw last night was all in a dream, but Yue Xin knew very well that it was real.

The two of them ate the dumplings without talking. When Yue Xin was full, she put down her chopsticks and stood up to leave.

“I’m leaving. I’ll come back tomorrow.” No. 12 was probably still waiting for her. Yue Xin knew very well that even if she said yesterday that he didn’t have to wait for her, No. 12 would only feel at ease when he saw her return.

Yi Chengxuan only nodded and did not ask her to stay.

After a while, the elevator door opened and closed. The 36th floor returned to its usual silence.

Only then did Yi Chengxuan put down his chopsticks and lean back in his chair. His face was no longer as calm as before. He really hadn’t expect Yue Xin to come the night before. Yue Xin had seen another side of him and messed up his plan. But at the same time, because of this accident, he saw another possibility, a more feasible choice. He clearly knew that this would be better than his original plan, but why did he hesitate at this point?

[I will always listen to what you tell me.]

Thinking of Yue Xin’s words, Yi Chengxuan sighed fiercely and buried his hand in his palm. “Father, what should I do?”
