Chapter 394, The Little Bastard is Too Cunning (Second Update)

Seeing that the IV drip was almost finished, Ji Mingqian stopped joking and stretched out his hand to press the call button beside him.

By the time the two of them left the hospital, it was almost twelve o’clock.

At night, the temperature in the capital dropped even lower, the chill piercing to the bone.

Ji Mingqian straddled his motorcycle and glanced sideways at Jiang Yisheng’s nose, which had turned red from the cold, and frowned, "Are you cold?"

"Not cold," Jiang Yisheng shook his head, his voice trembling slightly.

Ji Mingqian gave him a sidelong glance, pulled the scarf from around his neck, and threw it to him.

"Put it on quickly."

Jiang Yisheng was about to refuse but swallowed his words when he met the urging look in his eyes.

Hastily wrapping the scarf around his neck, he got onto the motorcycle after Ji Mingqian.

Detecting that he was settled, Ji Mingqian started the bike and rode off.

...

The area near the Desert of Hell was hot all year round, and it rained so seldom that one hand could count the number of times.

After finishing breakfast, Li Mohan was talking with Wei Dong in the corridor. Since they had already pinpointed that Koda and his group were hiding in the western part of the Desert of Hell, it made sense to call in a search team.

"Master, about madam..." Wei Nan sensed from Li Mohan’s words that he did not plan to take Ye Jiuliang with them and felt a bit worried.

Given Ye Jiuliang’s stubborn character, it wouldn’t be so easy to leave her behind.

Li Mohan commented incontestably, "Do as I say."

Wei Dong and Wei Nan exchanged glances, "Yes."

Turning back to his room, Li Mohan watched the closed door as Wei Dong mumbled to himself, "Do you think the madam would be willing to stay here?"

"What a silly question," Wei Nan shot him a "are you dumb" look, "In this world, the only person who can make our master change his mind is Ye Jiuliang."

He bet that his master would definitely not be able to outstubborn Ye Jiuliang in the end.

In the room, after finishing breakfast, Ye Jiuliang continued her sleep.

While she was sleeping hazily, she was suddenly scooped into an embrace.

The cool and distinct fragrance at the tip of her nose was uniquely his, and Ye Jiuliang instinctively burrowed into his embrace.

Li Mohan chuckled softly, "That tired?"

Ye Jiuliang hummed in a soft, sleepy voice.

"Then is it okay for you to sleep here?" Li Mohan gently swept away the hair on her cheek, softening his tone a few degrees.

As soon as he finished speaking, the person who had been drowsy instantly woke up.

Ye Jiuliang sat up to face him and asked with a cool and gentle voice, "Li Mohan, what do you mean by that, huh?"

No way she was going to let him ditch her again.

Seeing her annoyance, Li Mohan curved his lips and spoke with a gentle tone, "The conditions in the Desert of Hell are too harsh, I’ll return quickly, can you wait for me here?"

"Sure," Ye Jiuliang agreed readily.

Then she added, "In that case, next time I go on a long trip, you don’t have to follow me."

Li Mohan, "..."

The little devil was too cunning.

"You can go, I’m going back to the capital," Ye Jiuliang said, ignoring the look he was giving her as she pretended to get down.

Li Mohan caught her hand with a slight tug, pulling her back into his embrace.

"My fault," he admitted as soon as he spoke.

Ye Jiuliang landed back in his arms, glanced at the hand wrapped around her waist, and spoke with feigned arrogance, "Where did you go wrong?"

The little dear, she didn’t believe she couldn’t handle him.

Li Mohan bent down and lightly pecked her lips, "From now on, I’ll take you wherever I go."

"Who wants you to? I’m not your little follower," Ye Jiuliang eyed him disdainfully and huffed.

Li Mohan tightened his grip on her hand, "Then I’m your little follower."

Ye Jiuliang’s lips curved uncontrollably upward, "I’ll forgive you just this once."
