Chapter 1176: I Want to Make You Stay (54)

Staring at her, Yan Ge said, “He’s just going to pester you to no end. This is just one of the excuses he’s giving. You don’t tell me anything about him at all. It actually makes me very upset that you don’t. I hope you won’t hide anything from me again. Of course, I’m not going to hide anything from you either.”

Fang Erlan blinked and said, “Even then, I still can’t divulge anything about him to you. He’s too terrifying and incredible. His existence is bewildering…”

Yan Ge’s curiosity was piqued.

His heart sank, and he sat up straight.

After she fell asleep, Yan Ge took out her key card from her bag and scraped something off the wall before heading to the tenth floor with his mobile phone.

He entered Fang Erlan’s room.

The thing that he had scraped off the wall of his room was a small, audio-enabled surveillance camera.

Since she refused to tell him, he had no choice but to resort to such a method to find out for himself. After all, he really couldn’t find any information about Xiao Chenyang’s past.

Yan Ge placed the surveillance camera beside the television stealthily. It could easily go unnoticed because it was black in color. The surveillance camera covered the entire view across the room, including the bed.

He would be able to hear their conversation clearly via the live feed on his mobile phone.

He then returned to the twelfth floor.

Yan Ge removed Fang Erlan’s shoes and pulled the duvet over her body. He then lay down beside her and stared at her face, deep in thought.

It was the morning of the next day.

News of Fang Erlan spending the night in Yan Ge’s room had spread amongst the public and caused another uproar after the incident of Yan Ge’s fan threatening to kill herself became a hot topic.

Although Fang Erlan knew that nothing had happened and that she had simply slept on the same bed as him, the outside world thought otherwise.

To outsiders, it looked like the two of them had gotten intimate with each other last night, especially since they were a couple.

However, the two of them did not make any comments or respond to the speculations and rumors. After all, there was nothing much to be explained.

There was only one person whom Fang Erlan had to explain to.

Xiao Chenyang returned to B City from M Nation in the afternoon.

He headed straight to the filming location.

Fang Erlan was in the midst of filming, and her heart dropped the moment she saw him.

After filming ended, she walked toward Xiao Chenyang and asked with a chuckle, “You’re back?”

Xiao Chenyang stared at her without uttering a single word.

His intense gaze gave her the chills.

“What happened?”

Xiao Chenyang remained silent.

Fang Erlan was extremely ill at ease. She squatted down and asked, “Why aren’t you saying anything?”

“…”

He continued to remain silent, even until she was done with filming for the day.

Xiao Yue proceeded to buy dinner while the two of them returned to the room.

Once they entered the room, Fang Erlan explained, “Nothing happened between us last night. We just lay down beside each other. I had a drop too much last night and got a little tipsy.”

“Did I say anything?”

Dumbfounded, Fang Erlan thought to herself, Isn’t he sulky and moody all day because of that piece of news?

“Have you settled everything?”

“No, I wasn’t in a good mood so I decided to come back. You’re really something, eh? I couldn’t even bear to let you get drunk and yet you were so unrestrained with drinking in front of your boyfriend,” he gibed.

“I just had a bit too much…”

“Do you know why I refuse to let you drink much?”

“Why?”

“Because women tend to become irrational when they’re drunk, and when they become irrational, they give other men the chance to get intimate with them.”

Fang Erlan retorted, “Speak for yourself. Yan Ge is not such a man.”

“He’s still a man at the end of the day.”

“He’s my boyfriend…”

“Why didn’t you get intimate with him last night, then? If you chose to act before informing me, there’d be nothing I can do to you. Isn’t that so?”

“Xiao Chenyang, Yan Ge asked me last night if I wanted to marry him.”

He paused in his actions and gave her the side-eye. “How did you answer him?”

“I said yes.”

Xiao Chenyang dropped his cup onto the ground and it instantly shattered. He flew into a rage.

“What did you say? I didn’t hear clearly. Tell me again.”

“I said… yes.”

She was completely terrorized by the way Xiao Chenyang was glaring at her, fearing that she would suffer the same fate as the cup.

“Didn’t I say that you’re allowed to date him but you can’t marry him?”

“We’re serious about dating each other, and since we’re both serious, we’d obviously want to get married. I have no intentions to fool around. Xiao Chenyang, even if we knew each other in the past, I can’t remember anything about you now. Forget about everything we had too. After all, it was all in the past. Yan Ge’s fans are already driving me into a corner right now. Please stop forcing me, I’m about to lose my mind,” she said in frustration.

Tears welled up in Xiao Chenyang’s eyes. He used to think that Fang Erlan did not love Yan Ge and merely fancied him. However, he now had no choice but to reconsider his stand.

If a woman didn’t love a man, why would she want to marry him?

His heart was wrenching in pain and agony. He refused to admit that he was way too late in finding her.

During his flight back, he was pondering over whether he was in love with her soul or with the old Nan Chuang.

He felt like he had sobered up all of a sudden.

Staring at the woman before him, he had a moment of epiphany.

Nan Chuang’s soul was in her boy, but she was no longer the Nan Chuang that he used to know.

The Nan Chuang that he loved dearly, the Nan Chuang who made him her one and only, the Nan Chuang who would suffer in silence for his sake, the Nan Chuang who looked beautiful whenever she smiled, had already died centuries ago.

The woman in front of him now was Fang Erlan.

Although she and Nan Chuang shared the same soul, she had long become unrelated to him.

Now that Fang Erlan already had a person whom she fancied, he would only be wasting his efforts and making her detest him more.

To her, I might just be akin to those extreme fans of Yan Ge.

Fang Erlan had no idea what he was thinking about in those short moments.

Ding-Dong… Xiao Yue yelled, “Sis, it’s me!”

Xiao Chenyang turned around to walk toward the door. Fang Erlan thought that he was just going to open the door. To her astonishment, he simply walked out of the room.

“Cousin, aren’t you going to have dinner?”

He ignored her question.

Xiao Yue entered and asked, “What’s wrong with Cousin?”

“Nothing. Xiao Yue, clean up the broken cup,” said Fang Erlan, who suddenly felt flustered out of nowhere.

“Alright.”

After cleaning up the mess, Xiao Yue brought the food over to her and said, “Sis Erlan, let’s tuck in.”

Fang Erlan placed two of the dishes, a pair of chopsticks, and a bottle of beer into a plastic bag. She then handed it to Xiao Yue and said, “Bring this to Xiao Chenyang.”

“Alright.”

Xiao Yue exited with the bag.

Fang Erlan decided to wait for Xiao Yue to return before eating.

Xiao Yue returned a few minutes later with the food and she said, “Sis Erlan, Cousin has left.”

“Left? What do you mean?” Fang Erlan asked.
