Ye Wanwan pulled Si Yehan to sit down on the tiny bed . “Baby, come here . Sit down and rest . I got this private room through trick—”
“—um, I mean, it was given to me by a kind leader!” Ye Wanwan corrected herself while beaming .
Si Yehan surveyed the room as he casually asked, “On the island… did you see him?”
Ye Wanwan replied as she started to take out the new clothes from the bag: “Huh? Who?”
Si Yehan paused for a moment before answering, “Emperor Ji . ”
Ye Wanwan choked and scratched her head . “Nope, I didn’t see him . I actually saw a friend of mine, the boss of Heavenly Owl, Haitang . She told me Emperor Ji somehow found a method to leave the island already . Before departing, he left a very strange letter for me, but I couldn’t figure out what he meant after trying to decipher it for half a day…”
Si Yehan furrowed his brows . “Emperor Ji isn’t on the island?”
Ye Wanwan nodded .
Si Yehan appeared to have thought of something, his expression darkening slightly .
It was nearly impossible to leave this island with the strength of one person .
He spent a large amount of energy merely to pinpoint this island’s location . Furthermore, the geography around this island was extremely complicated and had a lot of undercurrents and reefs . He only managed to successfully arrive on a ship because he hired sailors with decades of experience and had an elaborate plan . Even so, the navigation was extremely risky .
However, since Ji Xiuran dared to go out to the sea, he most likely had a foolproof plan based on his personality .
Seeing that Si Yehan seemed to be contemplating something, Ye Wanwan was afraid his imagination was going wild again and hurried to switch the topic . “Oh right, baby, do you know who I ran into on the island? You definitely won’t guess!”
Si Yehan knew she was forcefully changing the topic but didn’t expose her . “Who?”
“Your eldest niece, Si Chun… Pah, I’ve been led astray by those people . I meant Si Xia! It’s Si Xia!”
Si Yehan was astonished . “Si Xia?”
“That’s right! He scared the heck out of me when I saw him . When I saw him running toward me with a hoe, I thought he was going to avenge his dad, but that lad knew his dad had no one to blame but himself, so he didn’t make any trouble for me . Otherwise, I would’ve had to go easy on him . After all, in terms of position in the family hierarchy, I am his Ninth Aunt-in-law…”
Si Yehan expressionlessly responded, “No need to go easy . ”
“…” Ye Wanwan wondered: Is he Si Xia’s real uncle?
“That lad probably went to go dig holes again; I’ll take you to him later . First, I’ll bathe and change my clothes!” Ye Wanwan quickly took out all the clothes from the bag .
Si Yehan was seriously too considerate . He prepared a whole outfit of clean clothes as well as undergarments .
Although she could find a place with fresh water to bathe, supplies were scarce and she didn’t have any change of clothes .
“Let’s go, let’s go . Come with me to take a bath first!”
“Where do you usually bathe?” Si Yehan asked .
“There’s a pond in the center of the island . ”
Si Yehan frowned lightly . “Outdoors?”
“Eh, there’s no other way . It’s already good that there’s a place to wash up in this lousy place . Don’t worry, there isn’t anyone suicidal who would dare to peek… ahem, I mean, Haitang and I were together, so we kept watch for each other . It was super safe . ”
Si Yehan didn’t say anything else .
The two of them soon reached the bathing spot and this time, instead of Haitang, her new guard was Si Yehan .
After stripping, Ye Wanwan sank her body into the water and leaned against the rocks on the side . She saw that Si Yehan was standing at a perfect distance and holding her clothes for her as he kept watch, his eyes not straying a centimeter .
Ye Wanwan clucked her tongue . Ey, is my charm lacking?
His eyes actually aren’t straying a centimeter…
At least take a peek…
