"Sh*t! Sh*t!" Ye Wanwan shot up into a seated position with a swoosh, her face full of panic.
Si Yehan turned at her with a frown, nervousness flitting through his eyes. "What's wrong?"
Ye Wanwan exclaimed. "Where's my little precious?! My little darling!!!"
Si Yehan's expression fell. "Little darling…?"
Ye Wanwan urgently gestured with her hands. "It's that giant rock covered by a red cloth! You know, that Scarlet Flames Academy monument that Jiang Lihen gave me?! It's gone!"
Si Yehan started, "You…"
She just did something so intimate with him, but her first thought the moment she woke up was that lousy rock?
Si Yehan had to take a deep breath to keep himself from pressing her onto the bed again. "That's all you wanted to say?"
Ye Wanwan was panicking when she abruptly caught sight of Si Yehan's stormy face from the corner of her eyes and belatedly realized something.
I'm screwed…
Hence, she hastily leaned over with a groveling expression. "Um… forget it if it's gone. It's just a lousy piece of rock!"
Although she said that, her heart was bleeding in reality. It was 15,000 honor points!
"I had your subordinate take it back," Si Yehan said.
Ye Wanwan's eyes brightened and relief flooded over her. That's good, that's good.
After learning about her little darling's safety, Ye Wanwan finally recalled proper business and excitedly said, "What I actually wanted to say was—look, darling. Our love gu was cured, so you should believe me this time, right? I told you that I only liked you."
She believed that her feelings wouldn't change even if she recovered her memories.
After obtaining the school monument, she only needed 10,000 honor points before she could ask for a third hypnosis session from the Headmaster.
Si Yehan greedily stared at the girl in front of him and at the cufflink hanging on her collarbone.
Their b.l.o.o.d.y lines had disappeared without a trace and they were safe and sound, which proved she did indeed like him—at least that was the current case.
This piece of knowledge sent mad joy racing through his heart, even if an enormous whirlpool was hidden behind this mad joy.
After staying silent for a moment, Si Yehan pulled out an object from the drawer in the nightstand and handed it to Ye Wanwan.
"What is it?" Ye Wanwan blinked and accepted it with suspicion.
After Ye Wanwan took it, she found this box to look incredibly familiar. When she opened it…
"D*mn! Isn't this the ring that Emperor Ji auctioned off at the charity banquet?" Ye Wanwan was astonished, trying her best to conceal the sparkling covetous emotion in her eyes.
Si Yehan glanced at her. "Didn't you want it?"
Ye Wanwan staunchly shook her head, her expression alert. "No! I didn't! I don't!"
The coolness in Si Yehan's eyes was replaced by a smile when he saw her reluctantly refusal, and the last trace of chagrin in his heart suddenly disappeared. "You sure?"
Ye Wanwan's bleeding heart didn't allow her to say "No" this time, so she cautiously inquired, "Why are you suddenly giving this to me?"
He clearly got into an awful argument with her over this ring last time…
After Ye Wanwan said that, she quietly mumbled to herself, "Could it be because I performed well last night?"
Si Yehan's expression stiffened and instantly looked strange. "There's no reason why. It's just a ring."
Ye Wanwan: "…"
Ehhh…
What a sudden change in att.i.tude?!
He should've been like this to begin with. She was utterly devoted to him, so he had no reason to get jealous over a ring.
Hm, was it because after the last 24 hours, he finally got some awareness that he was the legitimate wife?
D*mn, if she knew things would turn out like this, she would've knocked him over without any scruples a long time ago. She wouldn't have needed to suffer so much…
