Chapter 946: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-Won’t the Wolf Show Its Wrath (31)

After taking a shower, Zuo Yuexue felt like sleeping, but she still remembered that Xu Chengfeng said he would help her apply the medicine. So she endured the drowsiness and climbed out of the bathtub. She changed into her nightgown and went downstairs.

It was already late at night. Because Zuo Yue had drunk, and in order to avoid the situation where he was seen by her in the bathroom last time, Xu Chengfeng planned to take a shower after she fell asleep.

Hearing footsteps coming from the stairs, he looked back and saw Zuo Yue walking down in a new white nightgown. She was not focused enough when she walked down, and he suspected that she would fall down the stairs again.

It was not until Zuo Yue went downstairs safely and walked to the sofa that Xu Chengfeng’s gaze landed on her nightgown.

Zuo Yue looked up at him and then looked down at the nightgown she was wearing. Although it was very thin and slightly see-through, it was not very see-through. Moreover, it was not a sexy spaghetti strap style, but a half-long sleeve. There were some small butterflies embroidered in front of her body. The overall feeling was very clean, and there should not be anything wrong with it.

“What’s the matter?” Zuo Yue asked.

Xu Chengfeng shifted his gaze away.” It’s not summer anymore. There’s no need to wear so thin at home. Find some time during the weekend to buy two sets of pajamas suitable for autumn.””

“Oh…” Zuo Yue raised her hand and scratched her head. Her hair was still a little wet. After grabbing a handful of hair, she sat down lazily on the sofa and leaned back. She raised her head and closed her eyes.”Uncle, you should rest early after applying the medicine for me. Are you still going to be busy these few days? I’ve been staying here for quite a long time, but you’ve only come back twice. Including today, it can only be considered twice…”

Xu Chengfeng glanced at her and took out some painkillers from the first aid kit. As he helped her apply the medicine, he said softly,””Don’t you like living alone?”

“I’m used to living alone in that small apartment. But your villa is so big. I’m alone every day.”Zuo Yue narrowed her eyes and complained softly,””And every day when I’m alone at home, I occasionally see your things. That feeling is so strange.”

“What’s strange?”

” I just feel like a little wife who was abandoned by her husband. My husband doesn’t come home all night, and I’m the only one living pitifully in this villa…”

The medicine on her head suddenly stopped.

Zuo Yue opened her eyes and saw that Xu Chengfeng seemed to have already applied the medicine for her and was covering the medicine in his hand.

“Uncle…”

Go back to sleep. Xu Chengfeng was expressionless.

Zuo Yue quickly sat up straight.” I was joking just now. I was just saying that when I was here alone and occasionally saw your things, I would have that strange feeling. And I was just making a hypothesis. It was just a metaphor…”

Xu Chengfeng did not react to her explanation or her previous words at all. He only looked at the time and said coldly,”What time is it now?”

Zuo Yue also looked at the time and answered obediently,””It’s two o’clock in the morning.”

“Go to sleep.” Xu Chengfeng said, then got up and left the area around her.

Zuo Yue looked at him innocently.

She was really just joking. Why was he suddenly so far away from her?

Even if he was good-looking, even if she was not very clear-headed and always wanted to talk to him and joke with him, he was her uncle and not some stranger. She would not suddenly throw herself at him.

Why was he so wary of her?

As Zuo Yue was still lying on the sofa, Xu Chengfeng completely ignored her. He went to pour some water, get some clothes, go to the bedroom, or fill the bathroom with water. In short, he did not care about her anymore.

Feeling that she was being ignored again, Zuo Yue had no choice but to turn around and go upstairs to the bedroom after sitting for a long time. Although she was very sleepy and tired after lying on the bed, she thought of the atmosphere between her and her uncle today.

Even though he still treated her with the same cold attitude, at least she still felt warm inside.

Zuo Yue suddenly smiled and closed her eyes to sleep peacefully.

The last time Xu Chengfeng came back to stay, she could not sleep because there was one more person at home.

But now, because he was in the villa, she felt inexplicably at ease and quickly fell asleep.

*****

The next morning.

After Zuo Yue finished washing up, she endured the headache from the hangover and went downstairs. She thought that Xu Chengfeng would personally prepare breakfast for her, but when she went downstairs, she found that the villa was empty, and the dining table was empty.

It was obvious that Xu Chengfeng was not at home. He had already left.

Zuo Yue stood in the living room on the first floor for a while. She could not hide the disappointment in her eyes as she looked around. She walked to the kitchen and saw that Xu Chengfeng was not there. She then went to Xu Chengfeng’s bedroom on the first floor and knocked. It was very quiet inside. The bedroom door was not locked. When she opened it, she saw the dark blue bed neatly arranged, as if no one had slept in it before.

Could it be that she drank too much last night and was hallucinating?

Could it be that it wasn’t her uncle who sent her back?

Could it be that the atmosphere that made her happy and let go of her grudges last night was just an illusion in her dream?

Zuo Yue stood outside Xu Chengfeng’s bedroom in a daze. She closed the door and walked out.

However, the wound on her forehead was still there. Moreover, when she was washing up just now, she saw the yellow ointment on her forehead that had already solidified. So, last night should have been real…

But did he leave after she fell asleep last night? She doesn’t live here at all?

With all kinds of questions, Zuo Yue went to the kitchen to get the bread machine and casually baked a few slices of bread. She also took out some strawberry salad from the refrigerator and wiped some on it before eating a few mouthfuls perfunctorily.

She sat at the dining table and munched on the bread in her hand while looking at Xu Chengfeng’s number on her phone.

It seemed like she had never called him because he had told her not to bother him unless it was something important.

However, Zuo Yue stared at her phone for a long time and could not help but call that number.

She didn’t believe it. Her uncle had treated her very well last night, so he shouldn’t hate her or do anything to her just because she called him. Moreover, that was her uncle, not someone else. It shouldn’t be a big deal if she just called him…

However, when the call was connected, Zuo Yue’s heart still beat a few times for some reason.

This was his youngest uncle’s private number. She wondered if he had brought his phone with him.

The phone only rang four or five times before it was picked up. The man’s low, sexy, and clear voice came from the other end of the phone.”What’s the matter?”

Zuo Yue swallowed the bread in her mouth and said,””Uncle, when did you leave last night? Aren’t you staying at home?”
