C11 (1/2)

”It's not me. They have provoked something they shouldn't have. The area around this villa isn't that simple.” Lowering his head, Feng Tianyu explained as he packed his things.

I kept my head down, and he ignored me, just telling me why he was packing up.

”Come with me to a place that is no longer safe.”

”What makes you think I'll go?” I sneered back.

He took out a stack of photos from somewhere and dropped it onto the ground. It was Grandma! There were pictures of me and my grandmother and our lives together. The thought of my grandmother and I being watched and photographed for so many years made my hair stand on end.

”It's up to you whether you want to go or not.” Feng Tian Yu indifferently said, as if he wasn't worried that I wouldn't go. I loathed the way he looked, the way he acted when Feng Yi was threatened. He always seemed to have victory in his hands.

I tried to get up, holding on to the wall, and walked over to the bed.

”You will.” He seemed to have finished cleaning up. He came to my side and stared at me.

”So many people, why do they want me?” I knew he was listening, so I asked.

”Because you're the only exception.” There was a pause, then an explanation: ”My decision, I didn't expect it, but you did it. I was only there to check on Ming Luo, and, uh, to check on how Chu Weiran is doing in the mortal world, when I found you. I did everything I could to not let you leave him. I was thinking, if only you were mine. ”

Feng Tian Yu seemed to have sunk into his memories as he pursed his lips and smiled, ”That's why I used every method at my disposal to get you, making him think that the person you like is me. I didn't expect you to have such a strong temper. ” He walked over to me. He laughed helplessly.

”The deaths of those few humans were not normal in the first place. Besides, I've had contact with you before. ” He hesitated. ”I have to go back and investigate, so you follow me obediently, okay?”

There seemed to be a hint of pleading in his voice, as well as a trace of pampering. Just like that, I nodded, ”Okay.”

Not long after, a knock on the door rang out. Uncle Chen's voice sounded from outside the door:

”Young master, young mistress, the carriage is ready. You may depart.”

A carriage? The corner of my mouth twitched, wasn't it a car? What kind of years has it been? A horse carriage?!

Seemingly seeing through my thoughts, Feng Tian Yu rubbed my head as he explained to me:

”A car is a means of transportation for humans. I want you to get on the Underworld's carriage and follow me there.” ”Don't run around. You're still human, and once you get there, it's easy to cause trouble.” Then why did you take me there?

I clearly wanted to escape from this person, why would I leave with him? I don't seem to hate him that much anymore. Am I also a cold-blooded person? Feng Yi died in such a miserable manner, but he didn't care in the slightest. What if I die one day?

Thinking like this, I asked, ”Feng Tianyu, Feng Yi, is he really dead?” He didn't seem to expect me to raise the subject suddenly, and he was silent for a long time.
