Murong Xue returned to the apartment and sat on the sofa, not wanting to move.

She thought of Yang Feng. Alas! She closed her eyes and felt that everything was in a mess. What was the matter with her? It was not easy for her to get a chance to be reborn. But she still needed to be cautious all the time. Her love life was also in such a mess.

After a while, the door was pounded violently, waking up Murong Xue who almost fell asleep due to exhaustion.

Murong Xue felt strange. Who would look for her at this time?

When she opened the door, she found that it was Yang Feng.

"Xue, how can you be so cruel?" Yang Feng rushed up and hugged her tightly as soon as he saw Murong Xue. He could no longer control his emotions. He wanted to forget her these days. He tried, but he couldn't do it. He still couldn't help numbing himself with alcohol every day.

"Yang Feng, let go of me first!" Murong Xue pushed Yang Feng. However, she couldn't move him at all.

"I don't want to. Why are you so cruel? Do you hate me so much? To avoid me, you didn't even go to school..." A hoarse voice rang in Murong Xue's ear, which sounded rather depressed.

Yang Feng tried to kiss the girl in his arms crazily with passion, determination, and desperate madness.

Murong Xue was struggling fiercely. She was unwilling to do it. She was reluctant to let others touch her except for Shangguan Mo.

But there was a disparity between the power of men and women. Yang Feng clasped her hands tightly. He already lost his mind.

"Buzz..." Murong Xue's phone vibrated in her bag, but now neither of them noticed it.

Murong Xue bit hard on Yang Feng's lips, and the smell of blood spread instantly. The pain made Yang Feng come to his senses at once. He stopped and leaned on Murong Xue's shoulder.

Now she might hate him even more. "Xue, what's wrong with me? Why do you hate me so much? You can tell me. I'll change all of them."

Feeling the coolness on her neck, Murong Xue was flustered. "Yang Feng, you really misunderstood me. I really didn't hate you." She just didn't love him.

Yang Feng was still holding her tightly, "Why didn't you even go to school? Even your phone couldn't get through..." He remembered that he frantically looked for her in the classroom and her apartment. He even visited the Murong Family, but he couldn't find her.

"Yang Feng, let me go first. You really misunderstood. Let go of me first..." She didn't expect that the time when she went to the capital would have such a great influence on Yang Feng. She shouldn't have run away from him. At least, as a friend, she should also tell him her whereabouts. He said that he couldn't get through her phone. It should be the time when she hid in Space.

Yang Feng slowly let her go and wiped his eyes with his hand.

Murong Xue couldn't bear it. She held his hand and led him to the sofa. Then she poured him a cup of tea. "Yang Feng, drink a cup of tea and sober up!"

Yang Feng picked up the cup and took a big gulp. In fact, he was not drunk. He wished he could be drunk so that he wouldn't be so painful.

He turned his head and found that there was a big red burn on Murong Xue's hand. He panicked and asked, "Xue, what happened to your hand?"

Murong Xue looked at her hand calmly. It was much better. It was not as red and swollen as before. Today she didn't bandage it at all. With the magic medicine in Space, the scar would disappear in two days at most, "I'm fine. I just accidentally got burned."

"Why are you not careful? Why don't you apply ointment to your wound? Do you have any ointment at home?" Yang Feng got up and wanted to find a medicine cabinet.

Murong Xue grabbed him. "Yang Feng, it's okay. I had put some ointment on it a few days ago. Now I almost recover, so I don't use the ointment."

"No, your hand is still red. You haven't recovered yet. I'll go down and buy you some ointment." Then he wanted to walk to the door.

Murong Xue was helpless. "There is some ointment at home. You don't have to go down and buy it." She could only get up and take out the ointment for burns and scalds from the medicine cabinet, ready to apply it herself.

Yang Feng suddenly grabbed the ointment and unscrewed the lid. "Let me help you. It's hard for you to do it with one hand."

She saw his determined look and did not refuse, reaching out her hand obediently.

"Yang Feng, I went to the capital to participate in the International Stone Gambling Assembly for a full month. I didn't try to hide from you. Maybe it's because I was in the suburbs. My phone has no signal. I'm sorry." Murong Xue explained in a low voice.

Yang Feng froze and instantly raised his head to look at Murong Xue. His eyes lit up. "Really? You didn't try to avoid me?" He didn't stop putting the medicine on her wound. After a short while, he finished putting the ointment.

Murong Xue smiled faintly, "Why should I? Aren't we friends? How could I avoid you?"

Yang Feng hugged her excitedly. "That's great! You don't hate me."

"Yang Feng, can you let go of me?" Murong Xue always found it weird. Could he stop hugging her frequently?

"I'm sorry. I'm so excited." The fragrance in his arms made his heart flutter, but he shouldn't have...

"Yang Feng, I have something to say to you." After pondering for a long while, Murong Xue decided to speak.

"Go ahead." He would be fine as long as she didn't avoid him or hate him.

Murong Xue bit her lip. "Yang Feng, I have someone I like..." She thought that it was best for her to make it clear. If she didn't tell him frankly and still gave him false hope, she would end up hurting him.

Yang Feng felt heartbroken. He couldn't believe what he just heard. He held Murong Xue's shoulders emotionally. "He is forcing you, isn't he?"

Murong Xue shook her head. "No, I really like him. At first, I was reluctant, but then I couldn't help being attracted and tempted by him. My heart... I can't control my feelings."

When Murong Xue talked about Shangguan Mo, he could see clearly the affection in her eyes, which was as soulful as his. He leaned against the sofa in distress. "Does he treat you well?" As long as she was happy, he was willing to give up.

Murong Xue showed a look of distress. She recalled Shangguan Mo's indifference when he pushed her and that he hadn't called her for several days. "He is very kind to me..."

Yang Feng wouldn't miss any slightest expression of her. He spotted her painful look. "You're lying! He is not good to you, is he?" Why didn't Shangguan Mo cherish her since he got the woman he loved the most? Her painful look made his heart hurt even more.

"Yang Feng, you don't understand. No matter what he does to me, I still like him. And it's just that I love to worry about insignificant problems too much. It has nothing to do with him."

How could he not understand? He was just afraid that she could not bear to be heartbroken. "Xue, can't I be with you? Even if you don't love me, I will still treat you well. I will cherish you all my life. Could you at least consider letting me be with you?" He was willing to protect her all his life even if she didn't love him.

Murong Xue showed a wry smile. "Yang Feng, why are you so silly? There's nothing good about me. I'm not worthy of your love."

"If he is not good to you and you regret it, I'll always be there for you."

Murong Xue was stunned. "Yang Feng, you don't have to do this. You should have the happiness you deserve. Why do you waste time on me?"

"This is my determination and has nothing to do with you." Yang Feng looked at her with certainty.

"Yang Feng, promise me. Don't hurt yourself anymore, okay? Treat yourself nicely!"

"Do you care?" After all, he couldn't help but hope.

Murong Xue also looked straight into his eyes. "As a friend, I care!"

That was enough. As long as she still cared about him, it was enough. "Okay, I promise you!"

Murong Xue breathed a sigh of relief. No matter what happened, she didn't want Yang Feng to continue to be depressed.

After a long while, the two people who opened their hearts to talk with each other finally let go of the awkwardness in their hearts. Although it was not a successful outcome, at least they were no longer embarrassed.

"If you feel embarrassed, then I will try to let go. But I can't always control how my heart feels. You just have to enjoy!" Yang Feng's dark eyes were filled with gentleness.

Murong Xue sighed slightly. "Yang Feng, I hope you can be happy, but I can't make you happy. Anyway, I've known how you feel about me. Thank you!"

It would be fine as long as Murong Xue didn't dislike it. Yang Feng felt much more relieved.

In the middle of the night, Yang Feng got up and left her apartment.

After washing up, Murong Xue fetched her phone and found three missed calls. As she tapped on it, her pupils contracted. It was Shangguan Mo!

She hurried to call back. She missed him very much. "Beep..."

The phone was not picked up.

Murong Xue pressed to call back again. It was still beeping.

Why didn't he answer? Was he busy?

She put down her cell phone in disappointment. She didn't see him for a few days, but she felt that it had been ages. Even the reason why she felt angry before seemed insignificant compared with lovesickness.

After thinking about it, she still sent a message to him: "Mo, I miss you."

...

In Country C, Shangguan Mo finally finished the meeting, turned on the cell phone, and found two missed calls and a message. The moment he read the message, he felt so warm that he was eager to return to see her immediately.

He wanted to call her back but realized that it should be late at night in A province. He was afraid of disturbing her rest, so he resisted it and replied to her text message: "I miss you, too. Wait for me!"

Early the next morning, Murong Xue saw the message from Shangguan Mo. She could not help but show the sweetest smile during these days.

However, in the capital, Bai Xueli ordered someone to investigate the identity of Murong Xue and found that she was not only an ordinary daughter of a renowned family in A province. Her eyes flashed with malicious coldness.
