Chapter 489: The Man Who Reached Out to Save Her
“Nuannuan, your phone is buzzing.”
Standing at the entrance, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan was deep in thought when Shen Lanzhi’s voice suddenly called from the couch.
Immediately after, she heard that familiar notification tone and quickly walked to the side of the coffee table. She picked up her phone and realized that it was a message from Xiang Yi!
She had sent more than a dozen messages over the past few days, and he had finally replied!
However, when she opened the message, the content was only three words: not sure yet.
Not sure when he would be back?
What exactly was he busy with?
Holding her phone, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan had a serious look on her face. Then, she replied: What Are you busy with in your hometown?
After sending the message, s.h.i.+ Nuannuan waited for a reply. However, after a few minutes, there was no response from her phone at all.
…
These past few days, Zuo Weiyi had been feeling a little unwell and was weak all over. It was unknown if it was because she had not slept well these past few days.
Because these past few days, s.h.i.+ Yuting seemed to have an endless amount of energy. Every night, he tormented her until midnight, causing her to not sleep well.
She got out of bed, washed up, and went downstairs.
Standing at the top of the stairs, she looked down and was surprised to find that the entire living room was actually empty.
Strange, why did even the servants disappear?
She frowned. This was the first time she saw no one in the living room, so she couldn’t help but feel a little strange.
Without thinking too much, she went down the stairs. Unexpectedly, she misstepped and slid down the stairs.
She was in shock!
She thought that she would roll down the stairs, but in the next second, a hand suddenly reached out from her waist and pulled her back. Then, with a graceful turn, she fell into a pair of strong arms.
She stood up straight and met a rather handsome face.
But when she saw the face, Zuo Weiyi quickly pushed him away!
As she was still standing right at the top and edge of the stairs, she suddenly stumbled, her foot missed a step and she fell back again
“Ah!” She cried out in shock, her body desperately trying to find balance.
At this moment, s.h.i.+ Tiannan, who was standing in front of her, had no choice but to reach out again and pull her back.
She steadied her body again, but Zuo Weiyi still pushed him away quickly. However, this time, she was more careful and did not slip again. Instead, she glanced at s.h.i.+ Tiannan with her phoenix-like eyes, which were slightly cold.
s.h.i.+ Tiannan suddenly smiled, and there was a hint of flirtatious tease in his tone. “I finally understand why s.h.i.+ Yuting is unable to extricate himself from you. Such an alluring figure is really a beauty in the eyes of every man.”
His words made Zuo Weiyi feel a wave of disgust.
What kind of person would say such words? Filthy!
Zuo Weiyi shot him a cold glance. Saying another word would just be a waste a time, so she turned around and walked towards the first floor!
However, her cold att.i.tude was especially attractive to s.h.i.+ Tiannan, who followed behind her and also went downstairs.
“Tomorrow is the New Year, so all the servants in the castle will have a three-day holiday. It’s the same every year.”
s.h.i.+ Tiannan’s voice sounded behind her, as if she could see the confusion in her heart.
However, Zuo Weiyi still ignored him and sat down on the couch.
However, as soon as she sat down, s.h.i.+ Tiannan also sat down, right next to her.
She moved aside in disgust. She did not understand, why would s.h.i.+ Tiannan, who seldom came back, come back today?
