Ye Lin was stunned. He rubbed the space between his eyebrows helplessly and sighed."I just want to drink a glass of water. Forget it, I'll pour it myself!"
Ye Lin had just woken up and his body was still a little weak. He dragged his heavy body out of bed slowly and walked to the table.
There was still some warm water in the teapot. Ye Lin picked up the teapot and poured himself a cup. He took a big gulp, and his dry throat was moistened. He finally felt better. The fair wrist holding the cup looked exceptionally slender.
The door was gently pushed open, and the girl who had not seen him for a long time was outside.
Ye Lin raised his head and smiled at the girl.""Are you here to see me?"
"Yes, I've been guarding outside. I heard some movement in the house and thought that you might have woken up, so I came over to take a look. Are you…better?”
Always…guarding me?
Ye Lin's heart warmed.”
"Yes, you slept for three whole days."
"You're already the head of the family. Why are you still so willful? You've been guarding me for so long." Ye Lin smiled helplessly.
The girl's face was a little gloomy. She lowered her head slightly."I'm just…worried about you. Can't I even guard you?" The young lady's voice became softer and softer. Ye Lin also felt that his words were a little too harsh, so he sighed and said gently,""Alright, Han Mo, I was just afraid that you wouldn't be able to hold on. Now that I'm awake, there's nothing much to worry about. You should hurry back.”
"Are you concerned about me?" The girl raised her head, her eyes flashing with hope.
"Well, you're my friend and a few years younger than me. Of course, I treat you like a sister. Isn't it normal for me to care about you?”
The young girl felt a little bitter. Could it only be…a younger sister? However, it was also good that she was his sister. She had long known that he would not like her. Even if she was treated as his sister, it was good that she could occupy a place in his heart. Thinking of this, the girl yawned and pretended to say casually,""Since you're fine, I'll go back. I haven't slept well these past few days watching over you. I'll go catch up on my sleep!”
Ye Lin smiled and nodded.”
Not long after the girl left, Kaji carefully walked in with a pot of milky-white fish soup. Behind her was Loki, who was staring at the fish soup in Kaji's hand.
Kaqi found an empty spot on the table and put down the pot in her hand. She took out a small bowl and filled it for Ye Lin before walking towards him.
Ye Lin took the small bowl from his hands and drank it spoonful by spoonful. Then, he put the bowl down and leaned against the wall with his eyes narrowed."Xiao Qi, how long have we been here?”
Kaqi counted with her fingers and answered,"It's been nine days."
"There are six more days before we leave. Sigh, we didn't seem to have done anything to the Li family, but we've caused them a lot of trouble. We're really a little embarrassed.”
Ye Lin was not stupid. After being an assassin for so many years, he naturally knew how to read people's expressions. After spending some time together, he could naturally see through the girl's thoughts. However, Li Hanmo was not stupid either. He knew that he already had Xiao Qi, but it seemed that he did not intend to make it clear to him. In that case, he could only pretend to be confused. Although he did not like the girl that much, he really treated her as his sister. In order not to make her feel awkward, he could only pretend that he did not know anything. It was better to take it one step at a time. Other than the feelings between a man and a woman, he could give her anything she wanted. However, she probably didn't want anything else, right?
"No way. Didn't you kill Hua Mian? You've protected Han Mo, right?"
Ye Lin smiled faintly. He did not kill that person, but…no one would know. He would just pretend that he did it!
Nothing major happened in the next few days. Time passed very quickly. In a moment of absent-mindedness, Ye Lin and the others were standing at the entrance of the Li family. Fifteen days had passed. It was time to leave.
The girl stood at the door to see them off. She glanced at Ye Lin, bit her lip, and whispered,""Ye Lin, can I speak to you alone for a while?”
The young man's black eyes were clear and beautiful, just like the first time she saw him. She could not forget him after taking a look at him. Some emotions were about to burst out uncontrollably.
The two of them came to an empty corner with their backs facing Kaqi and the others.
The young girl raised her head and looked at Ye Lin seriously. She tried her best to raise the corners of her lips."Ye Lin, you're a very good person. I'm very happy to have met you. I hope that we can be friends for life, okay?”
"Of course. I've always treated you as my biological sister. As long as you don't forget me because you have so many friends in the future, it's fine.”
"Hmph, that will depend on your performance in the future.”The young girl raised her head proudly, hiding the reluctance in her eyes.
"Okay, okay, okay. Head Li, I will definitely treat you better. Call me if you need anything. Is that enough?”Ye Lin's eyes were filled with love.
"That's more like it."
"I said I had something to give you. Here." Ye Lin smiled and opened his hand. In his palm was a dark red stone with strange patterns. It looked like an egg but not a stone. The girl could not take her eyes off it.
"Take it."
Hearing Ye Lin's voice, the young girl regained her senses and took the stone from Ye Lin's hand. She asked curiously,""What is this?"
" I got this by accident. I don't know what its name is, but I found it quite magical. It can sense its owner's thoughts and throw it casually when fighting. It's quite hard and has never broken. It doesn't need to be mended either. It's quite considerate, so I've never lost it. I'm leaving, and there's nothing to give. This fellow has been with me for so long, so I thought I'd give it to you. Perhaps it can save your life when you're in danger.”Ye Lin winked playfully.
When the young lady heard Ye Lin's words, she gripped the stone in her palm tightly and suddenly took two steps forward to hug Ye Lin tightly." Ye Lin, you're so good to me."
Ye Lin blushed and suddenly felt a little embarrassed. He reached out and patted the girl's back awkwardly.""Alright, silly girl, it's enough to know that I'm good. There's no need to say it. I should go."
The girl slowly loosened her grip and lowered her head."You can go. I'll stay here for a while. I won't send you off.”
"Yes, I am. Take care."
Ye Lin waved at the girl and walked out from the shadows, walking towards Kaqi.
"That girl is very strong. She won't cry. You don't have to worry too much about her.”
"I don't know why, but I feel like she doesn't like me very much."”
"I'm not as good as you say." Sigh, forget it. This kind of thing can't be forced. Maybe our fate isn't enough!”
As the two of them spoke, they sat on Xiaobai. After the two of them sat down, Little White spread its wings and flew into the sky.
