Warm smiled slightly, but Ye Nimo wasn't the type to win over elders' favor. Why was her mother suddenly so accommodating

"What did your mom say" As soon as she hung up the phone, Ye Nimo raised an eyebrow and asked. With New Year's Day approaching, both of them were taking a break and lounging in the living room; one reviewing year-end summaries, the other studying.

Warm replied, "My mom said to bring you home for dinner after New Year's."

Ye Nimo lifted his brows, glancing at Warm from his report. "Alright."

"You're really straightforward,"

"It would be rude not to accept an elder’s invitation," Ye Nimo said nonchalantly. Warm looked down on him for it; as if he knew what was considered impolite.

How many elders hadn't he treated with indifference

Wait a minute...

The Spring Festival...

Brother Liu Cheng would probably be spending New Year's at her place too. What if they ran into each other

He had no family, and usually spent the holidays with them; her parents already treated him as part of their family. Even though she and Ye Nimo didn't report it to anyone that they were together, her parents would definitely have let something slip given how often she was out.

Lately, Brother Liu Cheng hadn't been contacting her much anyway.

Warm thought perhaps this wouldn't be so bad; sometimes it's better to leave things unsaid when everyone knows the truth.

She realized that recently she had been too busy with a packed schedule and revision for exams. She didn't even have time to think of Brother Liu Cheng, let alone anyone else; perhaps another person had truly taken over her heart.

"Oh, where's your watch" While going over her notes, Nuannuan asked. Yè Fìmò was a loyal supporter of luxury brands and an sentimental person who always wore his Patek Philippe watch. She had never seen him without it when they were together, but recently she hadn't seen him wear it.

He seemed to be obsessed with watches; he would always have one on. Not seeing him wearing a watch for so many days made Nuannuan quite concerned.

Frowning slightly, Yè Fìmò replied nonchalantly, "I took it in for maintenance."

Nuannuan nodded. When Yè Fìmò got up to use the bathroom, she continued taking notes on her key points. Suddenly his phone rang and Nuannuan called out towards the bathroom, "Yè Fìmò, you have a call."

He replied, "Answer it for me."

Nuannuan picked up the phone to see that the caller was Han Bi.

Silently contemplating her options, she pretended nothing happened and let the ringing continue. The sound of the ring seemed like a relentless torment in her ears, making it hard for her to concentrate on studying.

Nuannuan frowned; this was driving her crazy.

The phone had been ringing for so long that no one would answer now. Why doesn't she just hang up

After a pause, the ringing stopped and then started again. Nuannuan slammed her pen down on the table and pursed her lips at the phone. She picked it up; the screen displayed a photo of herself and Yè Fìmò together looking rather intimate, not unlike any other couple.

Should she answer or ignore

If she answered and heard something that upset her, wouldn't that be self-torture

But if she didn't, a thorn in her heart would continue to cause pain. Has he been maintaining contact with Han Bi all along Do they keep meeting

Nuannuan couldn’t help but wonder; was Yè Fìmò also pampering Han Bi in places unseen by her The day before yesterday, Han Bi had attended an event and it made the news. Nuannuan saw that she was wearing a butterfly brooch.

But she had carefully identified them.

No.

The smile, the brooch, they all seemed particularly glaring to her. Perhaps, it wasn't unique; Ye Feimo might have made two of them—one for Han Bi and one for her.

When Nuwan decided to answer the call, the ringing stopped. She let out a sigh of relief, hoping he wouldn’t call again. If he did, she would definitely pick up without hesitation. Just as she was about to put down his phone, she received a message. Her finger moved unintentionally and touched it; since Ye Feimo's phone had a touch screen, the message opened accidentally. The sentence that appeared read: "Feimo, I don't mean anything else by this, just want to tell you that your watch is here with me. When convenient for you, come over to pick it up."

Nuwan’s hand loosened slightly and her expression changed.

Her watch was left at her place

When did she leave it there Judging by Han Bi's tone, it seemed like it was left in her house. In what situation would a man take off his own watch Aside from going to bed...

Nuwan clenched her teeth; something felt like it was pricking her heart.

Ye Feimo and Han Bi...

What exactly happened between them

The watch is in Han Bi's house.

Fei Mo just said he had sent it for maintenance. He lied to her.

He once promised not to lie to her, so why did he do this Was there something that happened between him and Han Bi

Nuwan was overwhelmed with distress from overthinking.

Sadly, she put down Ye Feimo's phone. She cursed herself for being too quick; if not for accidentally touching his screen, perhaps she wouldn't have seen this message or felt troubled and anxious by it.

I can't concentrate on reading the book.

Ye Feimo returned to the living room and asked, "Who was calling"

"Han Bi!" Warming's voice was flat, without any fluctuations. Ye Feimo paused for a moment, looking at Warming with a faint question in his eyes, "What did she say"

"I didn't pick up," replied Warming as she picked up the book and looked coldly at him, "She sent me a message."

After saying that, she carried the book into her bedroom and slammed the door.

The door was locked.

Ye Feimo's gaze was deep and sharp. He opened his messages to see Han Bi’s words. Suddenly getting up, he knocked on the door, "Warming, open the door!"

Warming pretended not to hear him as if she didn't know about it.

Holding her breath, she wrapped herself in silence and did not talk when angry, preferring to keep silent. Ye Feimo knocked for a while but received no response; the outside became quiet.

Warming glared at the door angrily, wondering if he was going to give up on explanations this way

No sooner had she thought that than movements were heard coming from the dressing room. She put down her book, how could she forget that their home was different from others The door really should have been sealed long ago.

Just as she was about to get up from her bed, Ye Feimo had already entered, his eyes dark and fierce, looking at her.

Warming turned her head away without being afraid of him. Was he the only one who could be angry

Ye Feimo walked over step by step with a cold expression; his gaze was like blackness in an abyss, boundless and edgeless, "What does this mean"rything will pass."Although she didn't know what was happening and everyone was blaming her sister, Wen Jing still believed that her sister had her own reasons for doing this.Wen Ran wanted some peace...
