That's right, given how shrewd he was, how could he not see right through her thoughts...?

At first, she thought Si Ye Han was just treating her like a pet he cared a lot for. She a.s.sumed he didn't really mind whether she was loyal to him and only needed her to be well-behaved and obedient.

And this man didn't know how to express himself, so she never thought too much about it...

However, when Si Ye Han looked at her and said, "You think I really mind being ugly?" she felt an inexplicable feeling of sadness and disappointment towards this man...

An unmeasurable amount of time went by and Ye Wanwan was still lost in thought when his low and hoa.r.s.e voice rang out: "I'll go."

After Si Ye Han said that, he stood up and walked towards the door...

Then, just as he was about to push the door open and leave, something tightened around his wrist.

Ye Wanwan had subconsciously followed behind him and she pulled at the edge of his s.h.i.+rt. "Thank you."

Si Ye Han didn't say a word and remained expressionless.

The second Si Ye Han was about to take another step to leave, Ye Wanwan suddenly said, "Why don't you stay the night?"

Si Ye Han's eyes flickered for a moment then he lowered his gaze and looked at her.

Ye Wanwan saw he didn't move, so she pulled his hand and led him back inside.

"Your dark eye circles look darker again. When it's convenient for you, try to come over and stay over more. Whenever I have no work to attend to, I'll head back to Jin garden to see you."

Sensing that Si Ye Han was staring at her, Ye Wanwan said, "What's the matter? Don't you sleep better when you're with me?"

Worried that he would find her change in behavior too drastic, Ye Wanwan added, *cough* "Treat it like I'm returning a favor! Thank you!"

She knew that to a controlling person like him, the compromise he made just now wasn't easy.

Ye Wanwan sounded very calm, but she knew how she felt deep in her heart.

Although Si Ye Han's extreme paranoia and possessiveness towards her in her previous life caused her to suffer so much that she didn't want to live, he never lied or betrayed her. It was also because of him that she finally saw the true colors of Shen Meng Qi and Gu Yue Ze...

She knew that she could never accept a relations.h.i.+p like this of such unequal status - it was like a dangerous wall that could crumble anytime. She could never accept Si Ye Han's unreasonable possessiveness and his unpredictable moods...

But she also couldn't deny that after changing the way she interacted with him in this life, she was able to see him in a different light and was moved by him.

She claimed she wasn't sure how she felt towards Si Ye Han, but she was sure that at the very least, she didn't want him to die...

Forget it, since she couldn't figure it out, she would just go with the flow then.

Even if she gained freedom, she didn't want it to be through his death.

The night was extremely quiet.

The two of them laid in bed in silence.

Si Ye Han was exceptionally still when he slept. There wasn't a single movement from him at all, so Ye Wanwan wasn't sure whether he had fallen asleep or not.

Ye Wanwan felt uneasy and couldn't fall asleep, so she turned her head and asked gently, "Oh right, I almost forgot to ask you something... that... do you know Mei Jing Zhou?"

Si Ye Han's usual cold voice came from her side, "No, I don't."

Ye Wanwan blinked, "Eh? Weren't you the one who asked him to attend grandpa's birthday banquet?"

Si Ye Han's tone didn't change, "No."

Ye Wanwan: "..." 

If she hadn't secretly asked Xu Yi about it before, she would've almost believed he wasn't responsible.
