That night, aside from Li Kuo, Xiaofan, Li San, and Lei Xiaolei stayed at the Ren Family.
Originally, Xiaofan wanted to distance himself from the Ren Family, but with another competition tomorrow, he could only stay to deal with tomorrow's matters first and then leave with a clear conscience.
However, he didn't know that Old Mrs. Ren planned to mobilize all the strength of the Ren Family to support Xiaofan. Just as she had followed Ren Zhongtian without regret. Win or lose, Old Mrs. Ren felt she had done right by the Ren Family, and if by any chance they won, perhaps Xiaofan might beco another Ren Zhongtian. Though, the probability was slim.
12:30 AM.
In Xiaofan's room in the Ren Family.
He couldn't sleep. Today he had recounted everything about encountering the Red Butterfly. No wonder the people from Red Butterfly hated Xiaofan so much.
Exactly. Since the beginning, when the important docunts in Shen Zuimo's hands were lost and the person was rescued by Xiaofan, Red Butterfly had suffered great losses. Later, with the assassination attempt on Uncle Ye Dahe, the plan was ruined, and Sato was killed within Huaxia's borders. That's why they so desperately wanted Xiaofan dead.
However, Red Butterfly probably didn't expect that after knowing he was targeted by the Assassination Order, this Ye Xiaofan would be ready to fight back against Red Butterfly.
'Creak.'
The door opened. Ren Ling, in loose pajamas, slowly approached the bed.
"Wolfberry, red date, and white fungus sweet soup. Want so?"
"Is there any dicine in it?" Xiaofan slowly took it, and without waiting for an answer, he gulped it down.
"There's no need for dicine now." After Xiaofan finished drinking, she climbed onto the bed and leaned into Xiaofan's arms.
"So sweet."
"I know you like sweets. Plus, eating sweets can help with brain activity," Ren Ling said softly.
"You knew I couldn't sleep?" Xiaofan asked quietly.
"I knew. You always like to think things over alone, and with such a big matter, it's hard to figure it all out quickly." Ren Ling gently replied. Then she found a comfortable spot on Xiaofan's chest and slowly closed her eyes.
"Ren Ling!"
"Mm."
"If I die, just forget about ."
"I can't do that."
"I'm serious."
"I'm serious too."
"Stay with Grandma in peace, then find a good man to marry. Consider it my debt to you."
"Let's talk about that when the ti cos. I can't answer you now," Ren Ling sweetly hugged Xiaofan, not wanting to think about anything else.
Xiaofan tried to avoid her, but who knew this little girl would stick even closer.
"You can touch, but nothing else."
Suddenly, Ren Ling, who had her eyes closed, opened them and looked at Xiaofan strangely.
Alright, Xiaofan admitted he had a wicked reaction. A normal reaction for a man, sotis without realizing it, he fell into it.
"Hmm? Then why are you running to my room at night instead of sleeping?" Xiaofan chuckled mischievously.
"Just wanted to be with you. Grandma said, at the start, we can only do it twice. If it's a third ti, a lot of my power will disappear," Ren Ling truthfully replied.
"Oh, right, almost forgot. Wow, then hurry back to sleep. Quick, quick."
"Do you really want it? I can ignore the power loss," Ren Ling said, blinking at Xiaofan.
"No… I'm going to sleep."
How great would it be to be ordinary? Now, even basic entertainnt is impossible.
So things beco addictive after trying them once. Like the first ti with Ren Ling, it was in an unclear state, but the second ti Xiaofan clearly experienced the sweetness. Now, with the young girl's fragrance so close, Xiaofan, entangled by troubles, naturally wanted to vent his frustration.
However, now he could only lie down quietly.
Life is short, why not enjoy it?
"Xiaofan…"
"Hmm?"
"I'm so glad you ca today."
"Oh."
"Am I troubling you?"
"Not at all. How's your injury? Do you want to give you so acupuncture?"
"Acupuncture?"
"Cough cough…"
Originally, when treating Ren Ying's injuries today, Xiaofan intentionally teased Ren Ling, but now, it was an unintentional slip. And with Ren Ling's repetition, Xiaofan couldn't help but think of that wicked scene.
The two fell silent, for a full two minutes, neither spoke.
"Xiaofan…"
"Yeah."
"Do you know why I like you?"
"I don't know."
"Hmm, I don't know either. When will you like ?"
"Soon, I guess."
"I'll wait."
The two had a rather odd exchange, knowing each other for such a short ti, yet seeming very familiar with one another.
After another five minutes of silence.
"Xiaofan, are you asleep?"
"Not yet. You should sleep."
"Why are you turning your back on ? Aren't I cute, don't you want to look at ?"
"I can't look. I'll get excited. We're so close. What if I can't help it?"
"If you can't help it, then you can't help it. At worst, Grandma will scold us," Ren Ling said carelessly.
"Go back to your room…"
"Oh, I'm leaving then." Ren Ling said, swiftly climbing out of bed.
"Hey…"
"Hmm?"
"Why not stay a while longer?"
"Sure." Ren Ling quickly opened the covers and slipped back in: "See, I'm obedient. I do whatever you say."
"But I tell you to find a good man and marry him, and you don't listen…" Xiaofan pouted.
"You're not dead yet. I'll talk about it when you die."
"Yeah, if a person dies, everything else is gone."
"That's why you need to cherish the people around you more."
"Like you? Hey, you…"
Cherishing those around you? Sotis it's not just about wanting to cherish them. Before having strong power, Xiaofan couldn't protect those around him.
That night, Xiaofan thought a lot and for a long ti, so things he just couldn't figure out.
The night gradually deepened, and Xiaofan slowly closed his eyes.
His mind echoed with everything that had happened recently. He closed his eyes again, sat up, and circulated his inner strength through his body's ridians.
Strength, only strength is everything.
Turning his head, Xiaofan looked at the little girl already asleep, feeling sowhat complicated.........
For many people, winning a beauty's heart is sothing truly exciting, but Xiaofan didn't see it that way. At least, back then, although he had such little wicked thoughts, he now felt that everything around him brought him imnse pressure.
If one day he truly died, would all these entanglents just fade away with his departure?
No, he couldn't die. If he died, there would be nothing left. No family, no loved ones, no friends, no brothers.
