Did the fairy have weaknesses? Even if the fairy disappeared, she needed to disappear in a specific place. Huangfu Yi now completely focused on the thing that Murong Xue was a fairy, which was completely untrue. And he was fantasizing about it. He couldn't wait to know everything about Murong Xue now. It would be better to control the possibility of her disappearance. If he locked her up...
Huangfu Yi felt that he was going crazy. He actually had such terrible thoughts.
Seeing Huangfu Yi's obviously strange expression, Murong Xue suddenly asked with worry, "Yii, what's wrong?" She thought to herself, "Did I scare him to death for showing up out of nowhere? No, no. He's fine. I'm exaggerating."
"Xue, are you a fairy?" Huangfu Yi asked suddenly. He didn't come to his senses yet.
Murong Xue was taken aback. What the hell was a fairy? Why did he suddenly talk about the fairy? But when she saw the strange expression on Huangfu Yi's face, she knew that it really had something to do with her sudden appearance. Did he think she was not a human? Thinking of this, Murong Xue didn't know how to react. After a while, she asked him, “If I’m a fairy, what are you going to do?” She looked at Huangfu Yi without blinking her eyes. She was inexplicably nervous.
“Lock you up?” Huangfu Yi almost spoke out what he was thinking. But when he met Murong Xue's eyes, he suddenly came to his senses. Murong Xue was actually a real fairy! "If you are a fairy, I will protect you..." He would also guard her. He felt that he could no longer bear living in a world where he couldn't hear any of her news.
This answer made Murong Xue chuckle. "I am not a fairy. I am a normal human being." She said seriously.
Was she a human? How was this possible? Huangfu Yi took Murong Xue over and touched her. He gently pinched her face and felt her hand to her feet. He felt normal that she was a real human being.
Murong Xue wondered if he was taking advantage of her. Murong Xue's eyelid twitched. She then patted Huangfu Yi's hand away. "Yii, what are you doing?"
"I want to confirm if you are a human." Huangfu Yi didn't even raise his head as if he had been thinking about whether to take off her clothes and check again.
"Stop it! Don't overthink this. I'm a real human being. Do you want me to cut myself and make a wound to show you if my blood is red?" He kept staring at her clothes with a weird look. She didn't need to ask and knew what he was thinking.
"No, then why... Why did you suddenly appear out of thin air? Where have you been during this period of time?" He grabbed her hand and asked. Now he still felt a little uneasy. Only by grabbing her hand could he feel at ease.
Murong Xue frowned. She was rather hesitant. But she insisted on one thing ― She couldn't say anything about the Space. "I don't know. I suddenly went to another place, and that place was completely white. There was nothing there. I walked for a long time before I saw the light. And then I showed up here." She knew that this excuse was strange. Even if she talked about the Space, it would be as magical as this excuse. Besides, it was already magical that she disappeared and reappeared.
This explanation brought no clues at all. Huangfu Yi was even more disturbed. Where was that white place? And why did Murong Xue disappear alone? He grabbed her hand tightly again. "Did something happen when you entered the place which was completely white?"
"No, I was sleeping..." She couldn't continue this lie anymore. She was too guilty. Especially Huangfu Yi's worried and nervous expression made her feel extremely guilty.
Huangfu Yi didn't suspect Murong Xue's words at all and continued to ask, "Did such a thing ever happen to you like this before?"
Murong Xue resisted the pain in her hand. She knew that he was worried about her, so she couldn't bear to cry out. She replied, "No, this is the first time... I'm so sleepy and want to rest. Can you stop asking?" In fact, the dark circles around his eyes made her heart ache, so she said that.
“Sleep?” When Huangfu Yi heard this word, he became nervous inexplicably. He didn't even want her to sleep because she just said that she was sleeping before she disappeared. But he couldn't bear to see her yawn and say that she was sleepy. Suddenly, he didn't know what to do.
She watched Huangfu Yi holding her hand with a complicated expression. She struggled slightly, trying to get rid of his hand. But she found that he was holding it tighter instead. The pain made her finally unable to restrain it and cried out, "It hurts..."
Her cry startled Huangfu Yi, so he let go of her hand at once. Seeing the red mark on her hand, he couldn't help but feel distressed, "Is it very painful? I'll look for the ointment." He hurriedly wanted to find the medicine cabinet. But when he stepped out of the room, he retreated and gently took Murong Xue's hand and said, "You go with me." Now he would be a little flustered inexplicably as long as she was not in his sight.
Murong Xue looked at their hands holding together, her heart pounding. But she was more at a loss. Eventually, she could only follow Huangfu Yi and walk out together. In fact, she didn't hurt anymore, but she simply wanted to see him caring for her.
Huangfu Yi saw the medicine cabinet that Murong Xue always used in the living room. The information he investigated contained everything about Murong Xue’s medical skills. He even knew that all the medicines of the Rise Group were developed by Murong Xue. He opened the medicine cabinet exuding medicinal scent, which was different from the unpleasant smell of the kind of medicine they normally used. This kind of medicinal scent made people feel refreshed and relieved.
His dark eyes flashed, and then he picked up the ointment, which marked that it could reduce swelling and blood stasis. He asked Murong Xue next to him, "This ointment, right?"
Murong Xue nodded. In fact, the red marks on her hands had gradually faded, and it didn’t hurt much anymore. But she still let Huangfu Yi apply a thick layer of ointment to her hand. He was doing it gently. There was a feeling of inexplicable tenderness.
After applying the ointment, Huangfu Yi blew onto her hand gently. "Does it still hurt?"
The cool breeze blew into the back of her hand, which was cool and made her tremble all over. She pulled her hand back abruptly, turned her head away, and replied softly, "It doesn't hurt anymore."
Huangfu Yi looked at his empty hand. She was doing this again. Murong Xue did this in the morning. She suddenly changed her expression and then disappeared in the afternoon. Was there any connection between these? "Xue, what's wrong? You seem to become really strange..."
Murong Xue blushed. She knew that she had become very strange, but she couldn't control it. She didn't want to fall in love with anymore. She only wanted to spend this life alone. As long as her family and friends were well, it would be enough for her. "I'm fine. I just want to rest." She lowered her head and still didn't look at him.
Huangfu Yi's face turned pale. Murong Xue also said such words this morning and then she asked to go home. And then she disappeared.
He stepped forward and hugged Murong Xue. As long as she was in his arms, she wouldn't disappear suddenly. Even if she disappeared, he could immediately notice it. Maybe he could follow her into that strange white world.
"What are you doing? Let me go..." Murong Xue struggled. She should be leaving. She couldn't stay with him.
Huangfu Yi suppressed her movements and said softly. But he also sounded a bit panicked. "If you want to sleep, I will hold you to sleep so that you will not suddenly disappear. I won't hurt you, Xue." He didn't want her to keep thinking about running away from him.
Murong Xue gradually stopped struggling. He was so cunning. How could she refuse him when he said in such a tone? Her heart ached. Then she remembered that he was waiting anxiously in the room earlier and suddenly she felt a little softened. “Forget it.” She thought to herself. She would only allow him to do it this time. Next time, she would definitely avoid him.
Seeing that she was no longer struggling, Huangfu Yi entered the room while carrying her in his arms and placed her on the bed. And then he lay down with her. His hand never left her for a second.
She liked the clear scent of him so much, which smelt so comfortable. She was indeed a little tired. Since she knew that everyone was looking for her when she was in Space, she couldn't stop worrying and being nervous. She could barely sleep. Hence, as soon as she leaned on the bed, she was a little bit sleepy. Especially, Huangfu Yi did not ask too much about her disappearance and didn't show any intention. There was only worry in his eyes from beginning to end, which made her relax a little. At least, she wouldn't need to treat Huangfu Yi as an enemy, which gave her a lot of comfort.
Gradually, Murong Xue’s light breathing became more and more stable. She had already fallen asleep. At this moment, she was leaning against Huangfu Yi’s arms without any defense at all. Perhaps she just didn’t want to think about it. Maybe she trusted Huangfu Yi from the beginning. Otherwise, she wouldn't have wanted to expose her secret in front of him.
Huangfu Yi looked at her without blinking, and he held her in his arms tightly. He didn't dare to relax for a second. He was afraid that Murong Xue would be abducted by the monster if he didn't pay attention to it. She was already in his arms, but he did not have the slightest sense of security.
