C75

When the hour hand just pointed to six o'clock, I suddenly sat up from the bed. I fidgeted with my hair for a bit before lifting up the blanket and jumping off the bed.

I stepped barefoot on the soft wool carpet, walked to the window edge and pulled the curtain aside, and took a deep breath of the dewy air.

Thinking about the nightmare just now, cold sweat broke out on my back again. I actually dreamed about the wedding between me and Master Chen. When the wedding was going on, snow that shouldn't have been there actually rushed out to steal the marriage.

And this Snowfall was actually a man. When he snatched me away from Master Chen and held my hand as he prepared to run out, I woke up from my dream.

I have to say, Snowfall's weird actions last night really scared me to death.

It was at that moment that I noticed a figure downstairs in the garden with its back to me. His left hand was holding a pot of water for watering flowers, and his movements were graceful, but there was also a hint of leisure in them.

Even though I didn't see him, I could tell at once that this was Master Chen.

I greedily sized up Master Chen's back, just like a thief. Just as I was engrossed in my gaze, Master Chen, who had his back towards me, suddenly turned around.

The first rays of the sun shined upon the earth. The flower that had been watered by Grandpa Chen looked even more adorable under the rays of the sun. The sunlight shone through the dewdrops onto the beautiful features of the man.

I couldn't help but gasp, almost thinking that Master Chen was the Elf Prince who had mistakenly entered the mortal world.

The sound of my breathing was too loud. Master Chen seemed to have heard something and lifted his head. When I realized what he was planning to do, I hurriedly drew back into the window curtain, pulling it so that Master Chen wouldn't see me.

My heart was also beating nervously because of my own guilt. I even felt that my face had become very hot.

Although I was able to hide my body well, I was too nervous and my movements were very big. The curtains were also trembling violently due to my pulling, and Master Chen was able to see that the curtains were constantly shaking.

After a long while, he let out a cold laugh.

I hid behind the curtain for about five minutes before I cautiously stuck my head out. I wanted to see if Grandpa Chen was still downstairs, but when I looked down, I was disappointed to find that he was long gone.

Just when I was feeling depressed, there was a knock at the door. My heart started pounding again.

It was a coincidence that Master Chen was not in the garden, and there was a knock on my door.

I hastily went to the front of the room and wiped my face with a tissue before using my fingers to comb my hair. I anxiously pulled open the door and rehearsed the smile on my face.

But when I opened the door, I saw that the person standing outside was not Master Chen at all, but an aunt in a servant's uniform.

I immediately wanted to close the door in disappointment, but the aunt at the door suddenly spoke out, "Miss Tingting, Master Chen has instructed you to come down within fifteen minutes for breakfast."

Hearing my aunt's words, I felt as if I suddenly received a new life, my heart was filled with joy. Although Master Chen didn't personally come, it was also Master Chen who invited me!

I hurriedly asked, "Is Snowfall here?"

Although the servant felt that it was a bit strange, he still shook his head honestly. "An emergency occurred in Miss Luoxue's house yesterday, and she left overnight."

Hearing this, the joy in my heart increased. In that case, is it going to be me and Grandpa Chen being alone? I quickly thanked the servant and threw myself in front of the wardrobe to choose my clothes, but when I thought of the servant's request that I leave within fifteen minutes, I stuffed the clothes I had just picked back into the closet and rushed into the bathroom to wash.

I hastily packed up and ran down the stairs. In my heart, I was filled with hope that I could be alone with Grandpa Chen. When I reached the dining room, I subconsciously stopped and took a few deep breaths.

"Good morning, Master Chen." I tried my best to control myself, but my nervousness was expressed through my trembling voice. I immediately lowered my head, not daring to look into his eyes.

Master Chen slowly raised his head and nodded, "Yes, sit."

I followed Master Chen's instructions and sat down across from him. I saw that he was gracefully wiping jam onto the bread. The gentle touch of his head made my heart tremble.

If only there was no snow between me and Master Chen?

"Master Chen …" Before I could react, I blurted out the name I had been thinking about in my mind. When Master Chen heard my voice, he even paused for a moment before he looked up at me with a puzzled expression, as if he was waiting for me to speak.

But when Master Chen looked at me, all the doubts in my mind were confused. I didn't know what to ask and where to ask.

I should ask Master Chen if he has a little liking for me. Or should I be angry to ask Master Chen why did he give me to Boss Kang so easily?

Thinking about Boss Kang, my heart hurt again. I lowered my eyes and took a small bite of the bread before shaking my head towards the carriage, "It's nothing, I just, just wanted to call you by your name …"

I couldn't tell if I was relieved that Master Chen had let me go, or if he was sad that he didn't ask me, because he didn't care about me.

Master Chen ate his breakfast in a leisurely manner. After drinking a mouthful of coffee, he looked at me and said, "Stay away from the falling snow."

When I heard the heartless words of Master Chen, I was stunned. The knife and fork in my hand unwittingly fell from my hand and landed on the porcelain plate in front of me.

"I didn't!" I subconsciously rebutted, feeling sad that Master Chen had warned me to stay away from the snow without being clear.

I realized that I didn't have any status in Master Chen's heart. I smiled bitterly before raising my head to look at him. "It doesn't matter if you believe me or not. I really don't have any intention of harming her."

You love her so much, how can I bear to let you suffer because of her? The latter part of the sentence, I subconsciously hid it, making my mood even more depressed.

After a long time, there was no reply from Master Chen. He just stood there and I stood up. As I passed Master Chen, I said in disappointment, "I know, I will stay away from her."

Since your heart has already determined that it is me, there is no point in further explaining.
