Tang Yuanyuan's eyes lit up as she looked at the fried rice brought to her mouth. It seemed that the aroma had filled her nose. She opened her mouth to swallow, but when her tongue touched the hot fried rice, she felt a burning tingling sensation. For a moment, she couldn't swallow it without spitting it out. No, he held the mouthful of rice with a delicate expression and chewed it for a while before swallowing it.
After she swallowed the hot fried rice, she stuck out her tongue that had been burnt to the point of losing consciousness, and frowned in distress.
"Are you getting carried away? Why are you so anxious? No one is trying to snatch it from you."
Yi Huai looked at her wrinkled little face, and the smile at the corner of his mouth curled up unconsciously.
"Every time I see you eating, you look impatient. Obviously you have never been hungry, right? Fortunately, you are still the eldest lady of the Tang family. There is nothing about you that shows that you are the daughter of a rich family."
Hearing this, Tang Yuanyuan glanced at Yi Huai a little aggrievedly, wondering if he was deliberately making fun of her, and retorted with a slight snort:
"Being active in eating has nothing to do with whether you are hungry, right? Besides, my family pursues civilian education... What's wrong with being a little more free like Miss Qianjin? I haven't liked the bells and whistles of the upper class since I was a child. The one that is practical but not flashy..."
"And in places where hypocrisy of humanity is revealed and negative emotions are accumulated...there will always be a lot of ghosts and ghosts. You should be very aware of this, right? So I have rarely attended banquets of high-class society since I was a child. However, I have learned a little bit about etiquette...but why do I need so much attention in my own home?"
Yi Huai looked at Tang Yuanyuan and shook his head helplessly.
"It's true that one sentence is worth ten...but you are right, you are fine as you are now."
His last words were spoken very softly, but they still fell into Tang Yuanyuan's ears. Tasting these words, she always felt that there was another meaning in her mind. However, she didn't think about it for a while. She just felt that since Yi Huai was like this The words had come out of his mouth, and his complexion had improved a lot just now. Perhaps his mood had improved a lot at this moment.
So there was a smile on her face again, and her eyes fell on the fried rice held in Yi Huai's hand again. Just when she was about to say whether she should continue eating first, Yi Huai spoke one step ahead of her.
"It doesn't matter whether you are polite or not. The fried rice is very hot, so you have to eat it slowly."
With these words, he scooped up a spoonful of fried rice again, but instead of rushing to feed it to Tang Yuanyuan like last time, he put it to his mouth and blew lightly as if out of habit.
Tang Yuanyuan was a little surprised when he looked at the scene in front of him. Yi Huai actually seemed to have a lot of experience in taking care of people.
When the second mouthful of fried rice was brought to Tang Yuanyuan's mouth, she didn't open her mouth immediately. Yi Huai noticed her slight hesitation. When he came to his senses, he realized that he had habitually made some unnecessary intimate gestures. He quickly frowned. Frowning, he spoke in a low voice:
"I'm sorry... I'm used to doing extra things. If you don't want to eat it, I'll get another spoonful..."
Seeing that Yi Huai was about to stop, Tang Yuanyuan quickly raised her hands wrapped in gauze and held Yi Huai's arm. Then she swallowed the spoonful of fried rice, chewed it with a satisfied look on her face, and smiled after swallowing it. Chong Yihuai blinked.
"I don't refuse other people's kindness casually."
Yi Huai looked into her eyes and said nothing, but the smile appeared again at the corner of his mouth, and he seemed a little calmer.
"Then finish eating early, I have to pack things."
As he spoke, he continued to feed Tang Yuanyuan spoonful by spoonful. After finishing the meal, Tang Yuanyuan was shocked that Yi Huai was so patient. He was not impatient in feeding her, and seemed to enjoy the process more than she did. , almost every time, he waited until she had almost finished the last bite of rice before scooping out a spoonful. From time to time, he would also ask her if she was thirsty after eating the fried rice and if she wanted to drink water or soup.
Although Tang Yuanyuan vaguely felt that he was looking at her like a begging pug, she actually received comfortable treatment that even a nanny could not enjoy, so she didn't bother to care.
After Tang Yuanyuan had eaten and drank enough, he sat back on the sofa again with satisfaction.
After Yi Huai finished feeding Tang Yuanyuan, he cleared away the dishes on the coffee table. After working briefly in the kitchen, he returned to the living room. When he came back, Tang Yuanyuan was still lying on the sofa with his eyes closed. To rest his mind, he sighed helplessly, found a free seat and sat next to her.
Feeling Yi Huai move when he sat down on the sofa, Tang Yuanyuan opened her eyes, which were closed to meditate. She held the tablet in her hand and opened it again. She sat up with a "hehe" and stared at him for a while. When he planned to talk to Yi Huai about school, Yi Huai spoke first.
"If you have anything to say to me, just say it."
"Since you said so...I won't beat around the bush, Yi Huai, what do you think of these strange things happening in our school?"
After receiving a positive reply from Yi Huai, Tang Yuanyuan went straight to the topic without hesitation. She knew better than anyone else that she was just a layman when faced with such a problem, and it was most effective to refer to the opinions of Yi Huai and Zhen.
"What do you think? A female ghost born out of resentment seeks revenge. This is very common among evil ghosts."
"How can an ordinary ghost have such resentment? If it had been like this, humans probably wouldn't be able to live so freely..." She curled her lips, "Don't you think the timing of that female ghost's appearance is a coincidence? I'm in that school. I have been there for several years, and I also studied in the junior high school there. This is not the first time a student has committed suicide, but there has never been such a physical threat in the school before that would directly attack a living person."
Yi Huai glanced at Tang Yuanyuan when he heard this, his eyes drooped a little, but his tone lost the tone of talking to her normally, and instead had a bit of coldness:
"You are very smart, and you deserve to be able to live alone under the harassment of ghosts for so many years. But the more you do this, the more you should know that not provoking ghosts is the best choice. Do you really want to deal with things in your school? ?”
"For whom? For the childhood sweetheart you went to school with? Or for those girls you don't know at all? Maybe that female ghost will disappear on her own after venting all her hatred, right?"
Tang Yuanyuan frowned when he heard this and shook his head.
"Don't lie to me, Yi Huai."
"Although I don't know much about ghosts and monsters compared to you, I have lived for so many years and have my own experience. I know that once ghosts appear, they will not disappear easily. They are not those who disappear after eliminating their obsessions in novels and stories. An existence that dissipates on its own.”
"It's like you mentioned that all living things and the dead have three souls and seven souls. Those things will not die on their own."
She paused slightly before speaking, and then continued:
"And what if we let that female ghost kill those girls? Can she be resurrected and given a new life? The answer is no. The result is that she will only carry more hatred and resentment, and create more resentful ghosts. Besides, I believe some of these girls are innocent."
"It's not their fault, and death shouldn't be the punishment they deserve. I want to solve this matter not for anyone else, but for myself. I don't want to see anyone die because of this twisted hatred. So I just want to do what I do and that’s it.”
When Tang Yuanyuan said these words, his eyes met Yi Huai's, and even when he saw the coldness in his eyes, he did not dodge at all.
Yi Huai could see the determination and clarity in her eyes. Those beautiful and smart eyes of different colors finally made his heart move. He was defeated in such a gaze.
He didn't care so much about the life and death of other humans. To him, it was stupid for Tang Yuanyuan to want to involve himself in danger, but he had no room to refute every word she said.
Although Tang Yuanyuan was born as a human being with a fragile life, his awareness of life is much higher than him. It may be that he knows how to protect precious things because he knows the fragility and preciousness of life, even if it is just for himself as she said. Her thoughts and bottom line are to help others, and she lives so dazzlingly in his eyes.
She is not someone who has nothing and doesn't care about everything. She has her own persistence and bottom line. Just like when facing danger in the storage room, she would not hesitate to put herself in danger to save a stranger. How could she stop when faced with the threat of female ghosts making trouble in the school?
Yi Huai could have guessed this ending. He didn't want it to happen, but he couldn't stop it.
"If it weren't for my existence, would you also decide to take risks?"
He suddenly asked a somewhat ridiculous question, but he felt a little regretful as he said it, but unfortunately there was no room for return.
Tang Yuanyuan's choice to do this has nothing to do with her. A smart person like her will definitely find her own solution even without his help. His existence is actually dispensable.
"I can."
Sure enough, he soon heard Tang Yuanyuan's reply, and the light in his eyes dimmed for a moment, but soon he heard Tang Yuanyuan's last words again.
"But if you are here, you will become my biggest support and trump card."
She smiled at him and said:
"So I want to talk to you about this and hope to get your help."
"Because I made a stubborn decision to take risks, I will respect your wishes. If you don't want to help me, it doesn't matter. I will find my own way to try to deal with this matter."
"If you are willing to help me, I can promise you the reward you want... Well, although I don't think you will lack anything, I will put my promise here."
When Tang Yuanyuan said this, he nodded as if talking to himself, then raised his eyes to look at Yi Huai's expression in front of him. Although she didn't look that concerned on the surface, she was still a little uneasy in her heart. Her original intention was to look at Yi Huai's expression. Yi Huai can help himself.
She knew that she could not morally kidnap Yi Huai, but she was afraid of hearing his refusal.
