After the steaming hot pot was swallowed, Yu Meng's entire body began to warm up. She drank a bit of wine, and her mind gradually drifted into a trance.

"I just moved here not too long ago. How did you know I lived here?"

"That's how you found your last hospital address. The positioning system on the Apple phone is very powerful."

"That's why I advised you to surrender earlier. Just follow me."

"He Mingxuan, your skin must be itchy again … I'll punish you with three cups of wine! "Come, cheers!"

The inside of the house was warm and peaceful, but outside the hotpot restaurant, there was a shadow of a person hiding behind a thick and sturdy tree trunk.

He did not know how long he stood there.

A pair of black eyes that blended with the darkness of the night stared unblinkingly at the window on the second floor of the seabed, where hot air was drifting out through the cracks in the window. Occasionally, a man and a woman would be by the window, eating hot pot and playing with each other.

The man's slender fingers were pressing hard against his stomach. Even though he was standing in the night breeze, his back was still soaked in a layer of sweat.

He leaned against the tree and put most of his strength on the trunk. Breathing softly. He was in so much pain that his consciousness blurred. He pinched his own arm, feeling that the pain would stimulate him so that he wouldn't faint. Finally …

His dull gaze suddenly brightened as he followed the figure that walked out of the restaurant.

Yu Meng laid on He Mingxuan's back, her face completely red, her entire body reeking of alcohol.

"With your alcohol tolerance, I won't dare let you drink anymore." He Mingxuan stopped in his tracks and pushed Yu Meng's body upwards, allowing her to lie on his back more comfortably.

"You little brat, what nonsense are you spouting? I'm not drunk!" Yu Meng's eyes were half closed, her voice exceptionally bright.

"Fine, fine, fine. It's all because of my bullshit. You're not drunk, okay?" He Mingxuan sighed helplessly. "Let's go and sleep tonight, if not …"

Before he could finish speaking, a figure suddenly appeared in front of He Mingxuan and blocked his path.

"You went the other way."

Yu Meng Family was behind He Mingxuan, and he was carrying Yu Meng towards the courtyard entrance.

He Mingxuan lifted his head impatiently. Under the cold moonlight, he could clearly see that man's face.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Tan Yubai." When He Mingxuan said this name, his mouth was slightly raised in contempt. However, his hand that held Yu Meng's hand unconsciously tightened a little.

"We're not familiar with each other." He Mingxuan reminded: "Get out of the way."

Tan Yubai calmly replied, "You should be sending Yu Meng home."

"What does it matter to you where I take her?" He Mingxuan raised his hand and pushed it in front of Tan Yubai's chest.

"I don't want to argue with you, hurry up and send Yu Meng back. She needs to rest." Tan Yubai said coldly, and did not give way to He Mingxuan either.

Tan Yubai followed Yu Meng from the Jinxing Flower Garden all the way to this district. When he saw that she had safely returned home, and was preparing to leave, he saw He Mingxuan in the distance. Thus, he waited in the courtyard until now.

If he didn't see Yu Meng safely return home, how could he possibly let her go?

This sleepless night belonged to two men who were at odds with each other.

The terrifying aura between them caused him to let out a "puke!" Break.

Yu Meng struggled to get off He Mingxuan's back, using her subconscious to find the big tree beside her, and threw up all over.

"Little Meng!"

They stretched out their hands almost at the same time, all unconsciously.

Tan Yubai was the closest to her. He held Yu Meng's arm and gently patted her back.

He Mingxuan's outstretched hand was actually blocked by Tan Yubai's back.

He glared fiercely at Tan Yubai and spoke angrily: "Tan Yubai, what face do you have to meet her?!"

Unbiased, the three words Tan Yubai happened to be heard by Yu Meng who had just finished spitting out his name.

She straightened up, her feet unsteady, but her eyes began to look around.

"Tan Yubai? Where? Where is he? "

Yu Meng was in a daze, her footsteps were unstable as she stumbled, she squinted her eyes but could not see anything clearly, she could only stubbornly shout out Tan Yubai's name.

Tan Yubai panicked and tried to help her, but he heard her crying voice. The hand she extended into the air suddenly froze.

He did not dare touch her, but followed her slowly, as if he had lost his soul.

Yu Meng wobbled a few steps, and He Mingxuan's windbreaker fell to the ground. Tan Yubai bent over to pick it up, and immediately put it on her again.

Her cold fingertips had just touched the woman's shoulder when she stopped and turned around.

It was too dark for Tan Yubai to see Yu Meng's expression. He could only hear her say: "He Mingxuan, you're laughing at me again. You dared to lie to me, Tan Yubai, so he definitely won't come. Why would he come here?" Her voice became softer and softer, as she lowered her head and cried in a trembling voice, "No …" "He will never come back …"

Yu Meng's voice was like a tear drop that was thrown into the air, bringing with it an eye piercing taste.

He would feel sad if he smelled it.

She slowly crouched down again, wrapped her arms around her head and buried her face in her arms. "He doesn't want me anymore, he finally doesn't want me anymore …" His voice was unclear, "He doesn't want me anymore …"

Every word that the woman bit down on was clearly imprinted in Tan Yubai's heart. Just like a heavy hammer, it ruthlessly shattered Tan Yubai's entire heart.

He crouched down beside Yu Meng, trembling. Carefully maintaining his calm, he called out to her softly, "Xiao Meng."

Yu Meng looked up, "He Mingxuan, are you laughing at my stupidity again?"

She treated him as He Mingxuan and sneezed, "It's so cold …"

Tan Yubai did not care much as he wrapped Yu Meng up into his embrace and took half a step forward.

It was only at this moment that he realized how fierce Yu Meng's crying was. Because the moment her cheek came close to his, he felt his chest become wet.

"He Mingxuan, send me home, I'm tired."

Tan Yubai carried Yu Meng and finally saw her pale face under the moonlight.

So delicate, so heartbreaking.

"Where are you taking Remnant Dream?!" He Mingxuan who had been silent at the side finally could not hold back and spoke up.

Tan Yubai turned her back to him and stopped in her tracks. "I'll take her home."

"Her family is here …"

Halfway through He Mingxuan's words, Tan Yubai continued to carry Yu Meng and walked forward.

The scene of the two of them being together caused He Mingxuan to almost uncontrollably choose to stay silent.

The more he looked, the more He Mingxuan felt that he was too far away from the two of them.

But he would not give up. He looked up at the moon, then up on his heels.

Tan Yubai said that she brought Yu Meng home to their previous villa. This was what Tan Yubai had left for Yu Meng in the first place, but she insisted on not taking it.

When they reached Dihao Community, He Mingxuan was still following them.

Tan Yubai stopped in his tracks.

"You are the son of He Feng Sheng."

He Mingxuan could roughly guess what Tan Yubai wanted to say.

"This has nothing to do with me liking Yu Meng." He Mingxuan sneered: "I won't be despicable enough to use a woman's feelings for the sake of achieving my goal."

Every word was filled with sarcasm and sarcasm.

Tan Yubai was not annoyed, he merely shook his head lightly.

"No, I mean." He slowed down his speech. "No matter what your identity is, you won't be able to get away with it."

"Yu Meng isn't yours for a long time, why would you say that?"

Tan Yubai said indifferently: "Between her and I, there used to be no place for you, and there won't be any in the future."

The calmer Tan Yubai was, the more he was in contrast with He Mingxuan's flustered and exasperation.

"Tan Yubai, you are just being conceited! "Although Yu Meng liked you before, but …"

Without waiting for He Mingxuan to finish speaking, Tan Yubai directly used his stiff and cold voice to snatch the conversation, and rudely stated the end for He Mingxuan.

"In the future, she will only love me."

With that said, Tan Yubai carried Yu Meng into his villa.

The iron door, the courtyard with the grass covering it, He Mingxuan who was clenching his fists tightly but was unable to do anything, and the Tan Yubai who was filled with tender feelings under the warm lights.

He put the woman on the bed and helped her take off her outer garments. After wiping her face and hands with hot water, he could finally sit by Yu Meng's bed and watch her sleep in peace.

For a moment, Tan Yubai hoped that the sky would never brighten, and that this night would never go by.

He held her hand as if it were a treasure.

"Tan Yubai..."

Yu Meng was in a dream. Her eyebrows rose as she mumbled something.

"Tan Yubai..."

Tan Yubai bent over and laid down beside her, his lips touching her forehead.

Extreme gentleness: "I'm here."

"Bastard."

The man's pretty face froze for a moment, but he quickly regained his senses. He turned off the lights in the room. In the darkness, he carried Yu Meng and softly said, "That's right, bastard."

"Big bastard."

"Hm, universe super great bastard."

This extremely ordinary night had become the most peaceful night for Tan Yubai in the past few years.

He hugged her and took over all of her aura. Listening to her scolding him, the scolding was adorable and heart-wrenching.

Scolding her and making her sleep more soundly, Tan Yubai couldn't help but smile at the soft voice.

She was still willing to scold him, that was good enough.
