Two hours later, Feng Yu launched the game after modifying the data.
While the game was loading, he turned his head to glance at Xia Yi. Xia Yi was eating snacks. When she saw that he was done, she pointed at the takeout boxes beside her. “Ah Yu, your meal is over there.”
After saying that, Xia Yi continued eating snacks while watching short videos, laughing loudly.
Feng Yu did not say anything. He walked over, picked up the takeout, and tried a bite. It was cold and did not taste good.
He frowned, then looked up again at Xia Yi, who was happily watching videos and eating snacks.
He forced himself to swallow the food that was hard to get down. His eyes grew a little hot as he recalled the delicious meals he had eaten every day just a few months ago. Taking the thermal container from Tang Guo’s hands, the food was always hot.
If he were this busy, she would never casually order takeout for him and leave it sitting for nearly two hours until it went cold.
Tang Guo would never let him eat cold, bad food. She would definitely go into the kitchen and make a delicious meal herself.
When he was busy like this, she would also carefully prepare coffee and water for him, taking care of him in every detail. Tang Guo really was a very gentle girl.
Why had he only focused on taking her body for Xia Yi before, never noticing how good she was to him?
She treated him so well. Why had he been so cruel as to take her body and hurt her like that?
Feng Yu shoveled the food into his mouth. A tear slid down from the corner of his eye, dripping into the food and being eaten along with it. The cold food went into his stomach and immediately made him feel uncomfortable.
He pressed a hand to his stomach and gave a bitter smile. With some melancholy, he realized that ever since Tang Guo disappeared, he had not eaten on time in a long while, nor had he drunk fragrant, perfectly brewed coffee.
Every morning, that pretty and sweet girl would no longer be standing downstairs at the Feng Group building, holding a thermal container and waiting in the wind. When she saw him, she would call out, “Ah Yu, hurry up, go upstairs and eat.”
When he got off work, she would sometimes wake up from the sofa, rub her eyes, and ask, “Are you done work?”
At night, after he got home, he would always receive her message, “Did you get home safely?”
After coming out of the bathroom and lying in bed, another message from her would arrive, “Good night.”
Thinking of all this, Feng Yu felt his throat tighten. He turned his head and looked again. Xia Yi was clearly dressed beautifully, yet her sitting posture was very rough. Because she was excited from gaming, the face that should have shown a sweet smile instead made all kinds of strange, ungraceful expressions.
“Xiao Yi.”
“Huh?” Xia Yi looked up, then quickly lowered her head again. “Ah Yu, what do you want to say? Go ahead, I am listening.”
Feng Yu took a deep breath. “Could you pay a bit more attention to your image? If someone sees this, your identity will be questioned.”
Hearing that she might be suspected, Xia Yi even forgot about the game. She hurriedly pulled her legs together, her strange expressions disappearing, leaving only a trace of fear on her face. “I… I forgot.”
Then she quickly reacted. “Wait, no. Ah Yu, this is at home. There is no one else here. Since we are at home, we should be more comfortable. Why do I need to pretend to be ladylike? You know I am not a lady.”
Feng Yu suppressed the discomfort in his heart, stopping himself from saying that she was not using her own body.
“In any case, be careful. If you are suspected, I will not be able to help you.”
Perhaps Xia Yi heard the coldness in Feng Yu’s tone. She stopped playing games and instead asked, “How did the data modification go?”
