Chapter 256

He was like a spectator right now.

He could see what Tang Ruan saw, hear what Tang Ruan heard, and feel every touch Tang Ruan felt.

"Where did my lord run off to?"

Tang Ruan was very puzzled.

She couldn't help touching her own burning cheeks, looking around for Zhao Chi.

Zhao Chi could feel both hands touching a soft, warm face—so this was the soft, tender feel of Tang Ruan touching her own face.

Tang Ruan's gaze looked left and right.

One second it was the ceiling, the next she threw back the blanket.

She even opened the cabinet beside her.

Finally she lowered her little head and looked under the bed.

Zhao Chi thought helplessly: This Tang Ruan really is simple-minded—could I have taken off my clothes and crawled under the bed bare-bottomed?

Tang Ruan sat on the bed, still looking around randomly.

Then she muttered to herself:

"Where did my lord go?"

"Did he go to the world nearby?"

"Honestly… I'm all ready."

"And he didn't even say a word."

Tang Ruan complained softly as she picked up Zhao Chi's clothes.

She folded them carefully and placed them at the head of the bed.

Then her eyes landed on Zhao Chi's messy blanket.

She reached out, dragged the blanket over, folded it twice, then stopped.

Her gaze quickly flicked to the door.

The door was closed.

Then Tang Ruan buried her whole head in Zhao Chi's blanket and took a deep breath.

"Ah… this is my lord's scent."

Saying that, Tang Ruan burrowed into the blanket again and took another deep breath.

"Huff~"

Another breath.

Zhao Chi felt helpless inside.

What on earth is this Tang Ruan smelling?

"Ah! My lord!?"

Tang Ruan suddenly cried out.

She looked around in panic, but didn't see Zhao Chi.

"My lord, have you come back?"

Zhao Chi was also very puzzled.

I didn't say anything—can she hear the voice in my thoughts?

"Ah? My lord, I can hear you—where are you?"
