Chapter 227 - 227: Another Neighbor?
However, Rong Qi suddenly felt a soothing force on her shoulder at this moment.
Ye Nanshen was standing behind Rong Qi, massaging her shoulder.
Rong Qi’s lips twitched and said, “I didn’t hear you coming in.”
“I worried that I’d interrupted you,” said Ye Nanshen. His gaze fell on the drawing on the computer, feeling astonished.
Although Ye Nanshen had seen Rong Qi’s skills during the live stream, he did not expect her to be such a talented artist in the world of two-dimensional art. Even with simple lines, it was enough to be awe-inspiring. Such a piece of artwork could easily be worth millions if auctioned.
“Little Qi, who taught you to draw like this?” Ye Nanshen asked.
Rong Qi’s eyes flickered slightly, and she casually closed the page as if nothing had happened. She said, “Oh, just a neighbor who is good at drawing. I learned from him for a few days.”
“Another neighbor?” Ye Nanshen raised an eyebrow with a hint of a ripple in his heart. “Is it Ding Ding?”
“No,” Rong Qi shook her head. “It’s another neighbor.”
“You have so many neighbors?” Ye Nanshen could not help but ask.
Rong Qi paused, then retorted, “Do you only have one neighbor?”
After all, the person who taught Rong Qi to draw was her true neighbor. As for Ding Ding, he was just an online friend. But online neighbors were also neighbors to Rong Qi. People are close neighbors when they care about each other. There’s some truth to it.
Ye Nanshen frowned and said, “I don’t have neighbors.”
Rong Qi was speechless. She thought, ‘Well, it was true that in the entire Leucia, who else could afford such a large Clearcreek Mansion except for him?’
Ye Nanshen’s hand passed through Rong Qi’s hair, and he gently played with the smooth strands like a fox’s tail.
Ye Nanshen said, “It’s late, go to bed. If you like drawing, just draw whenever you want.”
Rong Qi nodded, stood up, and looked at Ye Nanshen. She said, “I should go to bed. But why are you still here?”
Ye Nanshen’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of amusement crept into his eyes. He said, “This is my room. Where should I go?”
After that, Ye Nanshen hugged Rong Qi horizontally, swiftly got into the bed, and turned off the lights. He imprisoned Rong Qi in his embrace, and the long-lost feeling surged within him, causing his heart to become chaotic.
‘Why did holding Rong Qi remind me of some faint and indistinct scenes, scenes I couldn’t clearly remember but knew were related to me and Shanon being together?’ Ye Nanshen pondered.
Ye Nanshen’s brow furrowed, and suddenly, his deep black pupils began to flicker with crimson red.
Rong Qi did not notice the change in Ye Nanshen. She just felt a little breathless, and her face turned red.
Moreover, Ye Nanshen seemed to be holding Rong Qi tighter and tighter. Feeling suffocated, she struggled to speak, “Can you let go of me? I’m suffocating!”
“I finally found you.”
Suddenly, a chilling voice rang in Rong Qi’s ears. It was Ye Nanshen’s voice, but at the same time, it was not.
A sense of foreboding rushed through Rong Qi’s heart. She opened her eyes and looked up, only to see a pair of blood-red pupils emitting an eerie color in the dark night.
Rong Qi’s body shivered, and goosebumps spread all over her body.
“Ye Nanshen?” Rong Qi tried to wake him up.
‘Uh oh, the shower gel I made earlier was just used up, and I had just changed to a new one then he had an attack.’ Rong Qi thought. She felt like she wanted to perform seppuku herself.
“Don’t leave me. I’ve been looking for you for three years.” Ye Nanshen said. His blood-red pupils stared at Rong Qi intently, like a vampire in the dark.
Rong Qi was immobilized by Ye Nanshen’s embrace. The fear in her heart turned cold when she heard his words.
Rong Qi sneered inwardly, her gaze turning cold. With a hint of sarcasm at the corner of her mouth, she said, “Let go. The person you’re looking for has already returned to the country. You don’t need to endure this suffering anymore..”
