Chapter 171: Breaking Into Sakura’s House Again
Coo~
Coo coo~
The Fei Village mansion was very quiet at night, and a few bird calls made it seem even more serene.
The estate was large, so it wasn’t surprising for the birds to be chirping, and the bodyguards on patrol didn’t notice anything unusual.
But Sakura, who heard this strange sound, was different.
Her eyes, initially immersed in boredom, suddenly sparkled with excitement.
Chen Yuan had said that if he came to find her, she should imitate the cooing sound.
So she walked out of her room, confirmed the source of the sound, and sent the surrounding bodyguards away.
Then, she excitedly waved at Chen Yuan, who was hiding in a nearby tree.
“Shh!”
Chen Yuan widened his eyes and emphasized with his finger at his mouth!
At the instant he noticed the bodyguards turn down the hallway, he swiftly dashed in front of Sakura, covered her mouth, and pulled her into the room…..
“You almost got me killed…… Here, I cleared the level for you.”
Chen Yuan let out a sigh of relief and pulled out the game console she had given him earlier in the morning.
Sakura was as happy as a child upon hearing this. She reached out to grab it, but Chen Yuan suddenly took a step back.
He held the game console high and didn’t give it to her right away.
She jumped up and down, unable to reach it, and puffed out her cheeks to glare at Chen Yuan.
Today, she wasn’t wearing that big turtle shell that wrapped her up.
Instead, she wore a purple-black lace dress, with a matching ribbon tied around her waist, and knee-high white socks.
She looked exquisite, like a princess doll.
A little gangster princess.
That was the only phrase Chen Yuan could think of to describe Sakura like this.
He had come much earlier than the previous night, so it wasn’t yet time for her to change into her pajamas.
Mainly, he had no control over when to come last night…..
Seeing her frown in a serious manner, Chen Yuan felt no fear and instead spoke with a teasing tone:
“Don’t rush, I’ll ask you a few questions, and after you answer, I’ll give it to you.”
He didn’t realize he was dancing on the edge of a blade at that moment…..
Just like the previous night when he had Sakura pinned against the turtle shell, if the bodyguards saw them, their eyes would pop out…..
Had he always been this brave?…..
After hearing Chen Yuan’s words, Sakura slowly walked over and sat on the edge of the bed.
She didn’t say a word, just turned her head away and refused to look at him.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan couldn’t help but chuckle.
She still had a bit of a temper…..
He then walked closer to her and softly asked:
“What did you do at school today? I searched the entire school and couldn’t find you.”
Sakura still wouldn’t look at him, ignoring Chen Yuan.
Noticing this, Chen Yuan wasn’t in a hurry; he slowly pressed the ON button.
The game music immediately started playing, and Chen Yuan skillfully selected a character and then began to fight……
Ah hit~ ah hit~
Pow pow pow~
The sounds of the game continued…..
Sakura was just a curious child who couldn’t control her excitement. As soon as she heard the sounds, she turned her head, completely forgetting her earlier sulkiness.
It was as if the previous temper was unrelated to her.
Such is the nature of a child—whatever comes quickly also goes quickly.
But because of her height and Chen Yuan’s deliberate teasing, even when she stood on her tiptoes, she couldn’t see the game screen.
No matter how she changed her position around Chen Yuan, she couldn’t see anything.
Seeing that she was getting more impatient, Chen Yuan bent down and gently said:
“Hurry up and say it, and I’ll give it to you.”
Moderate jokes can enhance relationships, while excessive joking may backfire.
And Chen Yuan was someone who knew when to stop.
Sakura’s little mind was easy to guess, like a fish’s memory.
So when Chen Yuan bent down to let her see the game screen, the anxious feelings that had previously made her jump around instantly vanished.
Originally, it was enough for her that he could come; that alone made her happy.
Her eyes sparkled as she watched Chen Yuan play, her thoughts automatically answering his question:
“I went to get my bl**d drawn.”
“Get your bl**d drawn?” Chen Yuan paused slightly, looking at her face, which was now so close.
He had no doubt about the truth of her words.
However, just by looking at her complexion, she did seem a bit pale.
“I lost some bl**d.” She focused on the game and, seeing that Chen Yuan wasn’t moving, reminded him.
“Why did you go get your bl**d drawn? Are you sick?”
Chen Yuan continued operating his character, asking.
“I don’t know, I have to go get my bl**d drawn at school every once in a while.”
“Oh, I see… why?” Chen Yuan asked again.
“My bl**d is very rich; my father and them need to draw it for experiments……” she answered innocently.
To her, she didn’t understand what conducting experiments meant.
She only knew that her father’s group needed it, and she obediently complied, just like that.
Chen Yuan felt somewhat shocked upon hearing this. Perhaps this was why she would destroy the world?
Stopping the world’s destruction wouldn’t only be achieved by killing her.
“Then why don’t you have a name? Isn’t your family the Fei Family?”
“……”
Upon hearing this question, Sakura pressed her cherry lips together and fell silent.
For matters she didn’t want to discuss, she would simply keep her mouth shut, her fluttering eyelashes blinking as if to avoid eye contact.
Seeing this, Chen Yuan realized he had touched on a topic she didn’t want to answer and waved his hand:
“Okay, fine, I’ll just ask.”
“Here, I’ll give you back the game console.”
She happily received it, turned around, and sat on the bed, focusing on playing, and the room quickly filled with the sounds of the game…..
While she played, Chen Yuan noticed that the ceiling in her room wasn’t repaired at all.
Could it be that no one could enter her room?
Not even to repair it when it got damaged?
After a while,
Footsteps could be heard outside the door.
Chen Yuan hid in the corner, and Sakura immediately turned off the game console.
“Miss, it’s time for your bath.”
A low voice from the bodyguard came from outside the door.
“Got it.”
Sakura returned to her usual authoritative tone and took a glance at Chen Yuan, her eyes revealing something meaningful.
It was as if she had something to say but couldn’t get the words out as she pressed her lips together.
“?” Chen Yuan tilted his head, “What’s up?”
“Can you not leave right now?” she asked in a pleading tone.
With those words, Chen Yuan’s CPU overheated.
“Huh?”
Why would I stay?
To continue playing games with you until late at night?
No one would do that!
But what he said was:
“Don’t worry, I won’t leave.”
Just watch if I go or not!
Upon hearing this, the corners of Sakura’s eyes lifted slightly, and she handed the game console back to Chen Yuan:
“Play with you.”
It was like a friend had come over to play, but she suddenly had something to do and didn’t want her friend to leave…..
So she could only offer her most precious toy to her friend, hoping he would stay…..
Chen Yuan took it, his mouth twitching; he wasn’t unaware of how much she treasured this game console.
That was also why Guan Shan wanted to touch it but was refused.
Then, she also took out a few small toys from the wardrobe, hugging them like treasures and bringing them to the bed.
“You can play with these too.”
Chen Yuan walked over to take a look; they were all simple, old-fashioned small toys.
The kind a three-year-old would play with, like rubber ducks that squeaked when squeezed.
As Chen Yuan held them in his hand, his eyes suddenly felt a bit sour.
What was her world like that it could be so barren?
Turning back, he found her rummaging through her things like a little squirrel, sticking her b*tt up as she searched her bountiful stash for the most delicious acorn.
After a moment, she pulled out a disc and started playing a unique two-dimensional anime from this world…..
This should be her favorite anime, or perhaps she thought it was one that Chen Yuan might like.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t have searched through it for so long…..
Once she started playing it for Chen Yuan, she slowly got up as if completing a task.
She opened the bedroom door, walked out, and carefully checked if Chen Yuan was watching as she closed the door…..
After confirming that Chen Yuan was playing with the toys and watching, she then closed the bedroom door.
And then the sound of her quickly running footsteps could be heard as she hurried away…..
So frantic even to take a bath…..
Chen Yuan held the rubber duck in his hand.
Coo~
Coo~
He just felt that such a simple little toy suddenly felt a bit warm in his hand…..
She was doing her best to try to keep him around…..
Maybe these things were very childish to him, to a normal adult.
But they precisely reflected that her world was only that small…..
Even though it was a family so materially rich and glamorous, she was still that much talked about young miss and goddess at school…..
You would think she had the whole world.
In reality, her world was so small that it contained only these toys.
So small that it used up everything.
And it could never hold onto Chen Yuan.
How childish…..
Who would like that…..
Chen Yuan put the toys away and jumped out of the room……
