Chapter 224 He found out (1/2)
Reading Settings
When Ruan Tang woke up, she was still feeling like she was in a cotton ball, her consciousness was hazy.
The bed was filled with Yan Yu's scent, crisp and pleasant, warmly enveloping her.
But something still feels off.
She felt something had changed in the house, but she had been feeling very tired lately and was experiencing severe drowsiness.
Ruan Tang's eyelids struggled to open first, her mind still hazy from sleep, but what she saw instantly woke her up.
This...it seems like Xiaobai has been put to sleep by her, so it shouldn't have been emptied by that guy, but...
The enamel mug on the table, the military water bottle on the wall, the large wardrobe in the corner... all disappeared overnight.
The entire room was empty, just as it had been when she arrived, except for the blankets wrapped around her body. What was going on?
She propped herself up to sit up, the blanket slipped down, and her body, dressed in thin pajamas, was chilled by the cold air, raising a layer of small goosebumps.
"elder brother?"
She called out tentatively, her voice soft and hoarse, with the slurred sounds of someone just waking up.
No one answered.
Ruan Tang got up to get dressed when the door opened from the outside, and Yan Yu's tall figure walked in against the light.
He was dressed in all black, which accentuated his broad shoulders and long, straight legs, making him look like a sharp blade drawn from its sheath.
He walked a few steps to the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed), bent down, and without saying a word, picked her up along with the quilt.
"You're awake. Let's go have breakfast." His voice was low, and his emotions were unreadable.
A slight feeling of weightlessness.
Ruan Tang instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, but before she could ask why the house was empty, the world before her eyes changed.
One second the room was empty, the next second, the rich aroma of rice porridge filled the air.
The warm air enveloped her completely.
She was already in a bright restaurant, with delicate side dishes and a bowl of steaming milk on the table.
By the time Ruan Tang realized what was happening, Yan Yu had already led her into the villa in his own space.
He gently placed Ruan Tang on a chair in the dining room, reached out to remove the blanket that had slipped off her and put it in the living room, then grabbed a coat for the little girl to wear.
"Let's eat first." He ruffled her hair, his voice softening. "I'll bring in the last of the things outside and then come back."
"Mmm." Ruan Tang nodded obediently.
Yan Yu's figure disappeared.
Ruan Tang picked up her chopsticks and ate her breakfast in small bites.
The food in the space was imbued with spiritual energy, and as it warmed her stomach, the fatigue that had plagued her since waking up began to dissipate a little.
At this moment, her mind finally started working. Ruan Tang glanced around the kitchen at the things Yan Yu had brought in from the outer house, and felt a warmth in her heart. It seemed that the man already knew.
Ruan Tang sighed and lowered her head to continue eating.
After breakfast, she didn't go back to her bedroom. Instead, she walked barefoot onto the carpet into the living room.
Ruan Tang looked down at the sofa, where two little furballs, one big and one small, were sleeping soundly.
Little White curled up into a snowball, buried on Big Orange's soft belly, rising and falling with Big Orange's breath.
Ruan Tang sat down on the sofa, reached out her fingertip, and touched the little silver ear.
The little guy twitched his ears but didn't open his eyes. He snuggled closer to the big orange cat and slept even more soundly.
Ruan Tang withdrew her hand and just quietly looked at them, her eyes slightly unfocused.
After refining the golden light of merit, she became exceptionally good at sleeping.
It wasn't physical fatigue, but a weariness that emanated from the depths of one's soul, a fatigue that couldn't be replenished no matter how much one slept.
