“It has been several days since I last saw her. Has she been very busy lately? Ah Yu, did you make Xiao Guo angry?”
“Alright, I will not say more. Remember to bring my daughter in law back.”
Before Feng Yu could respond, the call was cut off.
He opened the car door and finally drove toward Tang Guo’s home, dialing that familiar number at the same time. “Xiao Yi.”
“Ah Yu, are you off work? Are you coming over today?”
“Today is my birthday.”
“Ah, is it Ah Yu’s birthday? I am sorry, I am sorry. I have been livestreaming and forgot such an important day. Ah Yu, I will end the stream right now and order a cake for you. What flavor do you like?”
Feng Yu’s lips moved slightly. “I am coming to pick you up. My family has prepared a birthday banquet for me. I will take you to do styling and choose a dress.”
“Do I need to do styling too? I already look fine like this. And choosing a dress?” Xia Yi looked a little stunned. She had never experienced these things before. Her family background was very ordinary, and she had simply liked playing games.
She was different from other girls. When she had pocket money, others would buy snacks or decorations.
She would save it up and go to an internet cafe on the weekend to book an overnight session to play games. That way, the internet fee was cheaper and she could play all night. It was also because of staying up all night gaming that she suddenly died.
“End the stream first. I am coming over now.”
After hanging up, Feng Yu felt a bit dazed. Reviving Xiao Yi was not what he had always wished for? Why was a sense of regret now rising in his heart?
But thinking that Xiao Yi knew nothing and that everything was his doing, he could not blame her at all.
Even if Xia Yi could not control that perfect body well, he still had to accept it and carefully protect that body from any harm.
When he arrived at Tang Guo’s home and opened the door, he found that Xia Yi was still playing a game. He could not help frowning. “You still have not ended the stream?”
“I did, I did. I heard a new game just came out. Since you had not come yet, I played for a while. Ah Yu, wait a bit longer. This round is about to end. At most twenty minutes.”
Feng Yu checked the time. Seeing Xia Yi so absorbed, he sat down to wait. His gaze never left her. Clearly it was the same body and the same face, yet when Xia Yi played games, she flailed about, occasionally showing annoyed and childish expressions. These expressions should never have appeared on that exquisitely beautiful face.
“Xiao Yi, when you play games, can you put your legs down?” Feng Yu really could not stand it anymore. Xia Yi was holding her phone, wearing pajamas, sitting on the chair with her long legs propped up on the computer desk in a crude manner.
If she were not Xia Yi, he would already be angry. But it was he himself who had let Xia Yi have this body.
“This is home. There is no one else here. This is more relaxing. Playing games is about relaxing, right?” Xia Yi looked up in confusion, then quickly ignored Feng Yu again. The game had reached a critical moment. If she did not focus, she would definitely lose.
Feng Yu turned his head away. “Then you play first.”
This was Xiao Guo’s home. With Xia Yi’s temperament, he did not know how badly it might be damaged if she lived here for long. He planned to go into Tang Guo’s room and put away some valuable items.
Those clothes, jewelry, and bags from Xiao Guo’s favorite brands all needed to be moved into the unused room next door and locked away. That way, when Xiao Guo came back, she would not be angry.
Feng Yu planned to first check the other room. When he opened what he thought was an empty walk in closet, he froze.
