Ye Ci finally let go of Liu Chang's arm after they were out of the restaurant. She patted her shoulder and said, "Liu Chang, you can go home by yourself, right?"
Liu Chang was still in a daze. After hearing Ye Ci's words, she remained in a daze for a long time until Ye Ci smiled at her and said, "Then I'll be leaving first." She then grabbed Ye Ci's arm and asked anxiously, "Little Ci, you really didn't steal the storage unit?"
Ye Ci let out a long sigh and looked at Liu Chang, "Although I'm good at the game, I'm not a god. Do you know how I stole the storage unit?"
Liu Chang shook her head.
"I don't know either. Although I seem to be stronger than many people, Liu Chang, you should know that I'm just a normal player. "Ye Ci smiled bitterly," Of course, if you believe me, I can't do anything about it. "
"No, I don't believe you." Liu Chang was relieved after hearing Ye Ci's words, "I'm just worried about you. If you really did steal the storage unit, you'll have provoked the Setting Sun. It won't be easy to deal with him."
"I know that too. That's why I didn't say anything when he scolded me on the forums." Ye Ci narrowed her eyes and said, "Firstly, it's for the sake of Dong Yin and Yi Cang. Secondly, it's because I can't afford to offend him. He's definitely holding a grudge against me for leaving the guild. If I were to argue with him again, wouldn't I just be looking for trouble? "
After hearing Ye Ci's words, Liu Chang believed her completely. He sighed, "Ai, I don't know what Dong Yin and Yi Cang are thinking. Did water get into their brains? How could they be together with this man, and even …"
Ye Ci shook her head and smiled. She looked helpless. "Everyone has their own choices. Don't blame them."
Liu Chang bit his lip for a long time before saying, "You're still too soft-hearted."
The two of them chatted for a while more before they each took the bus home.
There were very few people on the bus Ye Ci was on. She found a seat by the window. Just as she sat down, she saw The Setting Sun and the other three come out of the restaurant. They stood at the door and talked about something. Her lips curled into a cold smile. She didn't know if they would believe her words.
It can't be.
It was best to believe it. Even if they didn't believe it, they shouldn't act rashly. One had to know that the current her was really … unable to withstand a single blow.
The bus started moving. Ye Ci retracted her gaze and narrowed her eyes, allowing the coldness at the corner of her lips to disappear. When she returned home, the family had already finished eating. Her parents had gone out for a walk, leaving only the three of them in the house. Tan Polang was still a child. He kept pestering Ye Ci to ask her what she ate.
Ye Ci let out a long sigh and said half-jokingly, "It's time for my last meal."
"What?" Bai Mo and Tan Polang thought that she was joking. However, when they saw that she wasn't joking, they couldn't help but become serious. They both leaned in front of her and asked, "What do you mean?"
Ye Ci did not hide the truth from them. She told them everything that had happened, and the two of them could not help but worry for her. Bai Mo frowned and looked at her, "Why didn't you call me?"
"Why would I call you?"
"To be a bodyguard? Even if it's just for show, it's fine. "
Ye Ci smiled and waved her hand, "Okay, I'm back safely now, aren't I? I didn't plan to tell you what happened today, but since you know the whole story, I can't hide it from you. Be careful in the future. Don't give yourself away. "
"Got it!" The two of them naturally knew the importance of this matter, so they nodded and agreed.
The days passed like flowing water. It was getting closer and closer to the day when the three of them would start school. The game capsule that Ye Ci bought for Tan Polang was finally allowed to enter the house after Ye Nantian and Zuo Xiaolan's amnesty. This made Tan Polang so happy that he almost jumped up and sang. However, school would start in a few days. For him, who was restricted from playing games at any time, he really felt sad.
These days, it was very peaceful. It was so peaceful that it felt a little abnormal. Ye Ci's heart was filled with conflicting emotions. On one hand, she hoped that something would happen. On the other hand, she hoped that nothing would happen.
Finally, on the night before she was to leave home and return to school, her phone rang.
The number on the phone was Dong Yin's. Ye Ci looked at the phone's constantly flashing screen. For a moment, she was in a daze. Even when the phone stopped ringing, she didn't come back to her senses. However, Dong Yin seemed to be persistent. Very soon, she called again without any rest. In the end, Zuo Xiaolan, who was sitting in the living room, couldn't listen to it anymore. She shouted at the top of her lungs, "Ye Ci! What are you doing? Your phone has been ringing for half an hour. Are you going to answer it or not? If not, turn it off! "
Ye Ci only came back to her senses after being yelled at by her mother. She couldn't help but grumble. Were all mothers so exaggerated? How could the phone have been ringing for half an hour? At most, it had been ringing two or three times. Although she grumbled, she still let out a long sigh and answered the phone.
Dong Yin probably didn't expect Ye Ci to answer the phone. When she heard Ye Ci's voice on the other end of the line, she was stunned.
"Hello?" Ye Ci saw that the other party didn't speak, so she raised her voice to remind the other party that she had already answered the phone.
"Hello, hello." Dong Yin seemed to have come back to her senses. Her voice sounded a little flustered. "I'm here. I'm here."
"What's the matter?" Ye Ci felt that there was nothing to say to Dong Yin right now, so she might as well get straight to the point.
"No, nothing."
Hearing Dong Yin's weak voice, Ye Ci's lips curled into a mocking smile. "Are you calling to ask if you can tell The Setting Sun my address? If that's the case, there's no need. You can make your own decision. "
"No, it's not like that." Dong Yin quickly denied it when she heard Ye Ci's words. She sniffed and appeared very anxious. "It's really not that. Ye Ci, listen to me. He didn't ask."
Ye Ci snorted and made a sound.
"I, I just called to say sorry."
"Oh?" Ye Ci narrowed her eyes.
"About the meal that day, I didn't think it through properly …"
"Alright, Dong Yin, there's no right or wrong between us. I don't blame you, really, but … Don't call him again. It's not good for your relationship with him. "
"Little Ci …"
"What?"
"No …"
Hearing Dong Yin's weak voice, Ye Ci was furious. She frowned. "Then I'll hang up." With that, she threw the phone on the bed and buried her face in the blanket.
