Even as a "normie," I'm completely oblivious to it.

"Alright..."

That's so reassuring!

The corridor, though not long, wasn't short either, and contained more than a dozen rooms.

So which room might Yun'er be in...?

In order not to disturb her, Yu Zhe had been moving very quietly with Lu Yao since the beginning, making almost no noise.

"Let's look for it first..."

Yu Zhe turned off the flashlight, and the corridor was plunged back into complete darkness.

No… that’s not quite accurate either, because only in the corner of the room, under the eaves, did a sliver of light shine through.

That room is obviously different.

Yu Zhe turned the flashlight back on and quietly walked toward the room where he had seen the light earlier.

He stopped at the door and gestured for Lu Yao to be quiet.

Yu Zhe chuckled softly, half-jokingly, "Should I rush in and scare her when we meet an old friend, or should I knock on the door properly?"

That was really a joke.

But Lu Yao doesn't think so!

Yu Zhe saw that she was about to ram the door.

"Hey, no, no! I was just kidding!"

Yu Zhe quickly and quietly pulled her back.

Goodness, you're too straightforward. You treat everything you say as an order, and your execution is too forceful.

Actually, Lu Yao had her own thoughts... she just didn't want the young master to stay in such a dim environment, as it would be difficult to protect him.

Any environment that could potentially endanger Yu Zhe would make Lu Yao feel anxious.

So there's no danger...

Yu Zhe roughly guessed what she was thinking, so he didn't waste any more time.

Rushing in directly would definitely not be a good idea. What if we frighten Yun'er? That would be too reckless, and Yu Zhe wouldn't do such a thing.

So he decided to knock on the door tentatively first to see what was going on inside.

Yu Zhe knocked softly on the door three times, then gently pressed his ear against the door frame to listen to what was happening inside.

There wasn't much of a reaction, but Yu Zhe did notice that the light that had been shining through the crack in the door had disappeared.

"..."

Did you turn off the lights?

Yu Zhe couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache. It was one thing for the girls around him to be so clueless, but why had even Yun'er become so dull? She had already discovered that he had someone else in his life. What good was turning off the lights now?

That being said, Yu Zhe can see how cautious she is now from this.

She's probably feeling a bit panicked right now.

To avoid causing her further anxiety, Yu Zhe didn't want to test the waters any further, so he simply knocked on the door a few more times and said...

"Yun'er, are you inside? It's me, Su Yuzhe, I've come to see you."

"!"

Boom boom boom!

This is a huge commotion!

Yu Zhe could clearly hear the urgent running sounds coming from inside towards the door.

Although it may only be

There were only a few steps, but from the irregular sound of her footsteps, you could tell that she had stumbled and run over, which showed how anxious she was.

Then Yu Zhe heard the sound of a lock being opened.

The room door was opened immediately.

then…

Mo Lingyun rushed out, and for a moment, the bangs covering her eyes were lifted by the wind.

Yu Zhe's eyes met those eyes, one side emerald green and the other deep purple.

Those eyes that exist only in my memory are so beautiful.

"Brother Yu Zhe! Brother Yu Zhe!"

Mo Lingyun looked at Yu Zhe with excitement, her eyes wide open.

The problem is... she couldn't contain her excitement, and the next moment she pounced on Yu Zhe without saying a word.

"presumptuous…"

Lu Yao had no idea who this person was. All she knew was that this person had long hair covering his right eye and looked like a suspicious character. Moreover, he actually lunged at the young master!

There is a threat!

This was Lu Yao's most instinctive judgment as a combat maid.

So her body reacted before she even thought about it.

Lu Yao reversed her grip on the curved sword, freed the back of her hand, and pressed it against Mo Lingyun's neck in mid-air, forcefully slamming her against the door frame next to her.

With a crisp clang, the aerial interception was completed in the blink of an eye, a truly perfect feat.

"Hey Lu Yao, let go! This isn't an enemy!"

It's really not Lu Yao's fault; Yun'er's appearance was just too sudden.

Hiss... Yu Zhe had anticipated this, and originally planned to tell Lu Yao after confirming that it was Yun'er.

However, he didn't expect Yun'er to be so reckless, and he also didn't expect Lu Yao to react so quickly.

That process just happened in only a few microseconds.

Upon hearing Yu Zhe's instruction, Lu Yao immediately released her grip and withdrew her arm.

In fact, Lu Yao was just instinctively protecting Yu Zhe, which is why she held back her strength just now.

Even if she held back, a strike she delivered with only 30% of her strength would still make an ordinary person feel uncomfortable for quite some time.

Therefore, Mo Lingyun, who had just taken that blow, clearly did not look well.

"Cough, cough... Brother Yu Zhe... cough... It really is Brother Yu Zhe..."

She leaned against the door frame, seemingly unconcerned about her persistent cough, and continued to look at Yu Zhe with a smile on her face.

Mo Lingyun reached out, wanting to touch Yu Zhe, but pulled her hand back before she could.

"No...this must be a hallucination...cough cough...it disappeared as soon as I touched it, let me see it a little longer...Brother Yuzhe, please don't disappear yet, let Yun'er see it a little longer...cough..."

"Yun'er...you..."

Yu Zhe felt a pang of heartache seeing her like this.

Yun'er used to be a very lively child, even possessing some of the arrogance and unruliness of a young lady. But ever since she witnessed the internal strife within the Mo family when she was young, her personality has become what it is now...

Yu Zhe couldn't bear to see her like this, so he reached out and gently grasped Mo Lingyun's hand, which was hanging in mid-air.

"It won't disappear," Yu Zhe said with a smile.

"Huh?"

Mo Lingyun stared in disbelief at her hand being gently grasped, then looked up at Yu Zhe, who had a gentle smile on his face.

Yu Zhe gently stroked Mo Lingyun's head with his other hand: "Yun'er, this is not an illusion. Brother Yu Zhe has come to see you. Look, you're holding me right now."

Mo Lingyun slowly raised her other hand and carefully covered Yu Zhe's palm.

It really didn't disappear...

"Brother Yuzhe... Waaah... It really is you..."

thus.

Yu Zhe saw it; a dazzling light, which hadn't been there before, now reappeared in Mo Lingyun's beautiful heterochromatic eyes.

56. You only bought this?

"Yun'er, do you feel calmer now?"

"Um…"

Even though she said she had calmed down, Mo Lingyun still remained kneeling, holding Yu Zhe tightly and refusing to let go.

This was also to let her rest for a while, so Yu Zhe changed to a half-squatting position. Just now, after Yun'er confirmed that what she saw was not a hallucination, she immediately hugged Yu Zhe's waist.

That hug lasted for ten minutes.

Now that it was clear that Mo Lingyun was someone the young master knew, Lu Yao no longer put on guard, but she still stood cautiously behind the two of them, acting as a guard without any emotion.

Hmm...it just seems like there's no emotion in it.

Yu Zhe looked down at Mo Lingyun in his arms. She was sobbing, and her body, which had been trembling uncontrollably, had finally calmed down.

But holding on like this all the time isn't a solution.

"Hey, let's talk inside first. Lu Yao, turn on the light for me."

When Yu Zhe stood up, he felt Mo Lingyun using a lot of force to pull him back.

I don't want to leave...

He stood up, bent down, wrapped his arms around Mo Lingyun's legs and waist, gently lifted her up, and carried her into the room.

Yu Zhe's first reaction was, "Wow, it's so light. Do you usually eat properly?"

Seriously, Zixiao is light enough. It feels like Mo Lingyun is about the same height as Zixiao, but even lighter.

Lu Yao used the flashlight on her phone to quickly locate the light switch on the wall.

Once the door was opened, the room was instantly illuminated, and the eerie atmosphere vanished without a trace.

Lu Yao closed the door and realized that the room was not only no longer dim, but also very neatly tidied up after the lights were turned on.
