As soon as Tangtang heard Ye Wanwan’s voice, he immediately rubbed his eyes and shot up before rapidly waddling over to his mother. “Mommy!”
The little fella tilted his head up and joyfully looked at her with his large, sparkling eyes. “Mommy, you’re back!”
Ye Wanwan patted the child’s head. “Why aren’t you asleep yet?”
Tangtang childishly said, “I wanted to wait for Mommy to come back.”
Ye Wanwan felt both moved and heartache. She turned to Si Yehan and said, “Ah-Jiu, why didn’t you stop him? His body is growing right now – how can you let him sleep so late?”
Si Yehan dryly said, “Don’t do to others what you wouldn’t have them do to you.”
Ye Wanwan: “…”
In other words… he also wanted to wait for her to come back, so he didn’t force Tangtang?
Her baby’s style of honeyed words was really… as roundabout as usual…
…
The next day, Mu Suifeng’s trip to China was coming to an end, and he was returning home.
Ye Wanwan followed Si Yehan to escort him to the airport.
Mu Suifeng chatted with Si Yehan for a while. Then he turned to Ye Wanwan and said politely, “Thank you for Chairman Si’s magnificent hospitality. Miss Ye, in particular, has made me feel like this trip was worth it.”
Ye Wanwan looked humbled. “You flatter me, Mr. Mu.”
Mu Suifeng quickly said, “Don’t be humble, Miss Ye. These are my earnest feelings. Being able to see someone as martially talented as Miss Ye outside of Independent State has truly made me pleasantly surprised.”
Si Yehan’s eyes flashed imperceptibly.
When Ye Wanwan heard “Independent State,” her eyes brightened. She exclaimed eagerly, “Ever since you mentioned Independent State last time, I’ve been very curious about it. I really want to visit and broaden my world if I have the chance!”
Mu Suifeng chuckled. “Well… I’m afraid that’s impossible…”
“Eh? Why is it impossible?” Ye Wanwan didn’t understand.
Mu Suifeng answered. “Normal people can’t casually enter and leave the Independent State. It requires a special permit. It’s like how we need a passport and visa if we go to other countries. If you rashly intrude and are discovered, you might even lose your life.”
“The Independent State’s power is truly too great. If it’s overly exposed in the outside world, it might attract great trouble, so normal people can’t casually enter it. This is the rule established by the Independent State.”
“So it’s like that…” Ye Wanwan nodded upon hearing that and couldn’t help but find it regrettable.
No wonder the outside world was completely ignorant about the Independent State, and it was like an entirely independent underground kingdom here…
…
After sending Mu Suifeng away, Ye Wanwan sat in the car listlessly and complained to Si Yehan.
“Ah, how regrettable! I thought I could vacation there! It turns out I can’t!”
Si Yehan glanced at her. “You really want to go?”
Ye Wanwan keenly detected a hint of danger in Si Yehan’s eyes and quickly shook her head. “No… n-no! I don’t want to go anywhere!”
However, Si Yehan evidently didn’t believe her.
When Ye Wanwan saw the man’s seemingly icy but uneasy expression, she chuckled and laid a kiss on his lips. “Fine, fine, I’ll admit it. I do want to go, but I also want to go to many, many places. After all, a person’s life is but a mere few decades long, so I want to travel the world and see nature’s beauty with my own eyes. However…”
Ye Wanwan glanced at him. “However, after meeting you, I think… it’s fine to pause a bit too.”
The emotions in Si Yehan’s eyes trembled and he fiercely pulled her into his arms…
A moment later, the man’s extremely stifled voice was heard. “Don’t lie to me again.”
Ye Wanwan was startled. “Huh? Why would I?! It’s the truth, okay?!”
Hm… What did Si Yehan mean by “again” just now? Could it be that I’ve lied to him before?
That’s impossible, right… how can I possibly have the guts to deceive Si Yehan…?
