Chapter 98: If You Do Not Leave Me, I Will Never Forsake You

The morning sunlight spilled into the room through the gaps in the curtains, the soft light falling upon the faces of Ye Feng and Gu Ran.

Gu Ran was the first to wake amidst a tingling sensation; the moment she opened her eyes, the memories of last night surged into her heart like a tide.

A crimson flush instantly stained her cheeks, and her heartbeat involuntarily quickened a few beats.

"The me from last night... how could I be like that?"

Gu Ran thought to herself, while scenes that made her blush with embarrassment gradually surfaced in her mind.

At that time, she felt as if she had been drugged; her thoughts were completely beyond her control, and she had even been proactive in a way that she herself found somewhat unbelievable.

"And that jerk Ye Feng..."

Gu Ran bit her lip, feeling both shy and annoyed: "I was already like that, couldn't he have been a little gentler?"

She moved her body slightly, only to discover that she did not feel the slightest discomfort; on the contrary, her whole body was full of strength, and her spirit was more vigorous than ever before.

Just at this moment, Ye Feng also woke up.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Gu Ran's slightly flushed cheeks and her subtly evasive gaze.

Recalling everything from last night, the corners of Ye Feng's mouth curled into a smug smile involuntarily, and he felt incredibly satisfied inside.

"Good morning, Ran Baobao."

Ye Feng's voice carried a hint of laziness and contentment as he reached out to gently wrap his arms around Gu Ran's waist, pulling her closer into his embrace.

Being hugged like this by him, the blush on Gu Ran's face deepened.

She pushed gently against Ye Feng's chest, her tone carrying a hint of feigned reproach: "You... let me go."

Although Gu Ran said this, Ye Feng refused to let go; instead, he held her tighter, lowered his head, and whispered into her ear: "What's wrong?"

"You weren't like this last night."

Hearing him say this, Gu Ran was instantly so embarrassed she wanted to hide, and she reached out to punch him: "You... you have the nerve to say that! I was already like that last night, couldn't you have been a little gentler?"

Hearing Gu Ran's blame, Ye Feng smiled, his tone carrying a hint of teasing: "You were the one being proactive last night; how could I dare not to cooperate?"

Hearing this, a crimson flush flashed across Gu Ran's face once again.

At this moment, she actually didn't know how to retort.

After all... last night... it really was her own initiative!

Subsequently, Gu Ran simply buried her head in his chest and stopped speaking.

Seeing this, Ye Feng felt a wave of tenderness in his heart, gently stroking her hair as he said in a low voice: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

"It was my fault last night; I will be more careful in the future."

Hearing him say this, the little bit of emotion in Gu Ran's heart dissipated quite a bit.

She raised her head, looked into Ye Feng's eyes, and said softly: "Ye Feng, actually... although I lost control a bit last night, I don't regret it."

"From now on, no matter how many hardships lie on the road ahead, I, Gu Ran, only recognize you as my man!"

Hearing Gu Ran's words, Ye Feng was stunned for a moment, then smiled.

Immediately after, he lowered his head to kiss her forehead lightly and said in a firm tone: "If you do not leave me, I will never forsake you; if you leave, I, Ye, will simply snatch you back!"

Having said that, he pulled her over and gave her a fierce kiss.

Seeing Ye Feng respond so domineeringly, Gu Ran glared at him with feigned anger, but a sense of sweetness still welled up in her heart.

She leaned against Ye Feng's chest, her heart filled with peace and satisfaction.

Sunlight spilled over the two of them, and a warm, tranquil atmosphere permeated the room.

Suddenly, a "rumble-rumble" sound came from under the quilt, breaking the silence in the room.

Hearing this sound, Ye Feng raised an eyebrow, a smile curling the corners of his mouth as he looked down at Gu Ran and asked: "Hungry?"

Gu Ran nodded slightly, a blush appearing on her face as she said somewhat bashfully: "Mm, a little."

Ye Feng smiled, his tone carrying a hint of teasing: "In light of your performance last night, I have decided to reward you by making you some noodles."

Hearing this, Gu Ran felt that something was strange, but she couldn't quite put her finger on it.

She frowned, then pushed Ye Feng lightly and urged: "Hurry up and go; I still need to change my clothes."

Hearing Gu Ran's words, Ye Feng sighed inwardly: "This girl is truly innocent!"

Subsequently, Ye Feng stopped teasing her, quickly put on his clothes, and walked out of the room.

Walking into the kitchen, Ye Feng skillfully cooked a bowl of light noodles, specifically adding a poached egg and a few pieces of green vegetables, making it look both nutritious and delicious.

Just as Ye Feng placed the noodles on the table, Gu Ran also walked out of the room.

She had already changed into a simple set of loungewear, her hair draped casually over her shoulders, her face carrying a hint of lazy beauty.

Walking to the dining table, Gu Ran glanced at the noodles on the table, the corners of her mouth lifting slightly: "Looks pretty good."

Ye Feng handed her the chopsticks and said with a smile: "Try it; I specifically added a poached egg for you."

Gu Ran took the chopsticks, picked up a mouthful of noodles, blew on them gently, and then put them into her mouth.

The texture of the noodles was perfectly soft yet firm, the broth was light yet flavorful, and the yolk of the poached egg was still runny; taking a bite, her mouth was filled with fragrance.

"So delicious!"

Gu Ran couldn't help but praise, her eyes narrowing slightly like a satisfied little cat.

She hadn't expected that he could make such a simple bowl of egg noodles both high-end and delicious!

If this thing were sold in Jinghai City, it would surely cost eight hundred and eighty-eight!

On the other side, Ye Feng did not know what Gu Ran was thinking; seeing her satisfied appearance, he felt a wave of tenderness in his heart.

He sat opposite Gu Ran and said softly: "If it's delicious, eat more; after all, you expended quite a bit of energy last night."

Hearing this, Gu Ran almost choked on her noodles, and a crimson flush instantly stained her face.

She glared at Ye Feng, her tone carrying a hint of feigned reproach: "Can... can you stop bringing up last night?"

Ye Feng smiled and said with feigned innocence: "I'm just concerned about you."

Gu Ran couldn't be bothered to pay him any mind and lowered her head to continue eating her noodles.

The two of them ate breakfast quietly like this, the sunlight spilling onto the dining table and reflecting their warm silhouettes.

After finishing the meal, Gu Ran put down her chopsticks, rubbed her belly contentedly, and said with a smile, "I'm full; I feel like my whole person has come back to life."

Ye Feng stood up to clear the bowls and chopsticks, asking casually, "Do you have any plans for today? Would you like to go out for a walk?"

Gu Ran thought for a moment and shook her head: "I was quite tired last night, so I don't want to go out today; let's just rest at home..."

Hearing her words, Ye Feng couldn't help but laugh, his tone carrying a hint of teasing: "Alright then, I'll stay home with you today, but don't get 'tired' like you were last night again."

Hearing this, Gu Ran glared at him in shy annoyance, then reached out, grabbed the throw pillow nearby, and threw it at him: "You... if you keep talking nonsense, I'm going to ignore you!"

Ye Feng easily caught the throw pillow, walked over to her side with a smile, and gently ruffled her hair: "Alright, I won't tease you anymore."

"Actually, just staying here quietly like this is quite nice too."

Hearing Ye Feng's words, Gu Ran nodded and said softly, "Mm, as long as you are here, whatever we do is fine."

The two of them snuggled together like this, enjoying the peace and warmth of the early morning.

Just at this moment, a burst of phone ringing broke this tranquility.

Ye Feng took out his phone and discovered it was a call from Ling'er's roommate, Xiaomei.

As soon as he answered, he heard Xiaomei's urgent voice: "It's bad, Ling'er has been taken away by people from the underworld!"
