"Which one?"
Knowing full well what An Nuan meant, Ye Yunfeng deliberately pretended not to understand.
An Nuan's cheeks burned a deep red.
This man was clearly doing it on purpose. Was it really that fun to tease her like this?
With annoyance in her eyes, An Nuan pouted, "You're doing this on purpose, you liar!"
"I am doing it on purpose, so what?" Ye Yunfeng asked, his face close to her ear, his warm breath teasing her until her cheeks burned scorching hot, like a ripe tomato. An Nuan carefully tried to push him away, but he was so heavy; there was no way she could move him.
In desperation, she heard the elevator "ding." An Nuan quickly said, "The elevator's here, let's leave first."
"Mm-hmm."
Seeing her shy demeanor, Ye Yunfeng's gaze deepened. He took a moment to look at her before following her inside.
The elevator numbers counted down, and An Nuan's heart pounded wildly.
She must be sick to be so flustered by this man. Even being in the same space as him made her feel hot all over.
Ugh, what was going on? What did he mean? Could a man as exceptional as him have fallen in love with her at first sight? Impossible. She'd been tipsy that day; no man would like that.
The elevator opened again, and An Nuan stood rooted to the spot.
Ye Yunfeng's long, slender fingers tapped lightly on the top of her head. "Let's go."
...Speechlessly, she touched the top of her head. Although his tap hadn't hurt her, she felt a little embarrassed. She had actually zoned out!
"Ye Yunfeng, wait a minute, I have something I want to ask you!" Seeing him stride out, she jogged to catch up.
She grabbed his sleeve, and his large hand naturally enveloped her small one in his palm. The cool temperature inexplicably made her hand feel scorching hot. She wanted to quickly pull away, but he held her even tighter.
"Whatever you want to ask, we'll talk about it when we get home."
"I'm not going to your place. Give me my things; I have my own place to stay." Stubbornly, she tried to pull her hand back. She couldn't just haphazardly move in with another man. Even after being with Xiao Ruoyu for so long, they hadn't truly known each other. Now, with this man, she knew even less. As the saying went, "once bitten, twice shy." She didn't expect him to have feelings for her; at the very least, they should understand each other's intentions. That would be better than... what if unwanted feelings developed and things became unclear between them?
Ye Yunfeng hit a nerve. He had no intention of returning An Nuan's brocade box.
An Nuan frowned, about to retort, when she heard him say, "Your agent's place isn't convenient. Your mother doesn't have time for you, and wouldn't look after you anyway. All things considered, right now, the person with the closest relationship to you is me. If you don't come to my place, where will you go?"
"We only have a close legal relationship," An Nuan emphasized with a pout, as he practically dragged her into the car.
Ye Yunfeng's lips twitched. "That's enough."
A legal relationship was the most secure; those ambiguous feelings were the least reliable. This silly girl, after just being deceived by her ex-boyfriend, still hadn't grasped that truth. Of course, he was too lazy to guide her. Even if he told her now, she wouldn't believe it.
An Nuan genuinely didn't want to dwell on the issue. She had previously said she would take responsibility, so drawing a clear line now would indeed be a bit unkind, but they weren't exactly intimate either.
"Ye Yunfeng, can you give me the gem first?"
