The hypnotized Ye Wanwan recalled to this point and felt like she wanted to commit suicide.
At that time, she was covered in ash and held a broken pancake in her hand, acting as if she wanted to “give herself up” to Si Yehan. She looked utterly foolish!
Why? What happened to the beautiful memories we agreed on?
Why did it turn out like this?
Just as Ye Wanwan was thinking of ending it all, the memories continued.
Si Yehan looked at her with cold eyes, then extended his slender fingers and took the… pancake… from her hand.
“What’s this?” Si Yehan asked.
Ye Wanwan was dumbfounded and replied in a daze, “It’s a pancake… it’s really delicious… I fought with the owner to get it… It’s not… I waited in line for over ten hours to buy it…”
A hint of skepticism seemed to cross the man’s face, as if he had never seen a pancake before.
He then lifted the pancake and took a bite.
Ye Wanwan watched in a daze; how could even eating a pancake look so good? It was simply divine!
After the man finished eating the pancake, he lowered his head and said to her, “Come with me.”
“Uh… oh…” Ye Wanwan got up in a daze. She didn’t know what he meant, but she obediently followed.
The man led her into a room and then handed her some medicine, saying, “Apply it yourself.”
Surprised and delighted, Ye Wanwan asked, “Uh… why are you helping me?”
The man responded expressionlessly, “The pancake was good. This is repayment.”
Ye Wanwan thought, “Uh…”
Did she actually exchange her life for a piece of pancake?
This wasn’t playing by the rules; it seemed Si Yehan was quite unpredictable!
After her initial astonishment, Ye Wanwan’s second reaction was, “Damn… so my willingness to give myself up couldn’t even match a piece of broken pancake?”
Is there no justice left?
This first encounter was far from romantic!
After applying the medicine with difficulty, Si Yehan left.
Ye Wanwan applied the ointment and started wandering around.
The place was dilapidated and simple; it seemed to be a place for imprisoning people…
Seeing her come out, the man coldly said, “Leave once you’ve applied the medicine.”
At this moment, Ye Wanwan was no longer as fearful of the man as before. She struck up a conversation, “What mistake did you make to end up here? I heard that your Shura Lord is especially cruel and sadistic, always ripping hearts out and eating human flesh. I figure you’ll suffer sooner or later too. Why don’t you come with me?”
“Shura Lord… cruel and sadistic?” Si Yehan repeated.
“Yeah! You’re so good-looking and kind, yet he locked you up in this place. If that’s not sadistic, what is?” Ye Wanwan replied.
Si Yehan seemed to remain silent for a long time before speaking again, “This place is dangerous, not where you should be.”
Ye Wanwan sighed, “Yeah, I didn’t want to come either, but this is a mission given to me by our leader. Asura’s battle plan is too well-organized, and we’ve suffered heavy casualties lately. So, our leader sent me here to gather intelligence. Our leader is terrifying; if I can’t complete the mission, I’ll be punished.”
Ye Wanwan sighed again, pitifully explaining. At the moment, she was covered in wounds, with a drooping head, appearing as a pitiable victim.
Recalling her hypnotized state, Ye Wanwan couldn’t help but marvel at her acting skills. She even wanted to applaud herself for her shamelessness…
Hearing her words, Si Yehan glanced at her and said, “Tomorrow, tell your leader not to take the water route.”
Startled by his sudden remark, Ye Wanwan asked, “Huh?”
“Asura’s ambush is on the water route,” Si Yehan continued.
