Chapter 1478: Chapter 1478: Mo Feng Appears

Angry, he turned his head and snatched the ointment from the assistant’s hand, his voice deep, "Get out!"

"Yes!"

The medical staff quickly turned around and disappeared from sight as if fleeing for their life.

The atmosphere between the two instantly became somewhat awkward.

Rui Hui blinked her enchanting eyes, seeming at a loss.

Diwu Zexuan, however, appeared much calmer, as if the person who just tried to take advantage had not been him. He indifferently twisted open the ointment, squeezed a grain-sized amount on his fingertip, and rubbed it onto Rui Hui’s big toe.

His gentle movements carried a hint of pity.

After applying the ointment, he swept her up horizontally and returned to the room.

"Can you now tell me what happened to your foot?" Diwu Zexuan placed her on the bed, considerately covered her with the blanket, and gazed down at her flushed cheeks.

It was rare to see a shy expression on Rui Hui’s face.

"I accidentally kicked something." Rui Hui looked guilty, perhaps the impact of the earlier collision with someone had left an impression; now looking at Diwu Zexuan, she always felt a bit awkward.

An indescribable feeling spread across her chest.

If it hadn’t been for the assistant arriving just in time with the ointment, would he have been about to kiss her?

The more Rui Hui thought about that possibility, the more doubt she had in her eyes as she looked at Diwu Zexuan.

Their mutual dislike was obvious, but why had Diwu Zexuan’s reactions been getting stranger recently?

"Don’t get out of bed today, take a good day’s rest." Diwu Zexuan dropped this remark and stood up from the bedside, stepping out of the room.

Rui Hui had been punished by gathering herbs all morning, already exhausted. Having the opportunity to be lazy was just what she wanted.

She flipped over, snuggled into the blanket, and fell asleep.

By the time Diwu Zexuan returned after leaving for a while, she was already deep in sleep.

Her peaceful sleeping face was so pure it made him reluctant to disturb her.

Diwu Zexuan’s eyes deepened, he stepped forward and gently lifted the blanket, lying down beside her.

He extended his hand to encompass her waist, pulling her into his embrace.

With his experience from the previous two times, his movements were gentle, and he did not try to kiss her.

He just let Rui Hui lean against him. The two of them hugged each other tightly in their sleep, like conjoined twins.

Gazing down at the woman who in a second turned into an octopus, directly wrapping around him, a faint smile surfaced on his lips—very light, very subtle.

...

"Mr. Jie, please wait."

As soon as Dan Hanjie stepped out of the research building, a figure swiftly presented itself in front of him.

His eyes grew stern as his hands clenched into fists in an instant.

"I am Mo Feng, Mr. Ye’s personal assistant. I am here to see Mr. Jie, with no other intentions, just wanting to know if Mr. Ye is still alive." Mo Feng, clad in black, seemed to blend with the darkness.

His resolute face was filled with worry and a glimmer of hope.

"Are you the shadow that has been lurking around here, Ye Zhanxing’s invisible assistant?" Dan Hanjie narrowed his eyes, his demeanor returning to calmness in an instant, his gaze towards Mo Feng was so serene that no flaws could be found.

"It’s just too bad, I don’t understand what you’re talking about. Ye Zhanxing is dead, if you want to see him, I’m afraid you’ll have to visit the Ye Family cemetery."

"Mr. Jie, let’s not mince words. There’s nothing in Mr. Ye’s grave, otherwise I wouldn’t be waiting here." Mo Feng kept his composure, his expression eager yet not losing his wits.

Dan Hanjie glanced at him, having to admire Ye Zhanxing’s eye for picking people.

Such an invisible assistant is more useful than dozens of bodyguards.

"The explosion left nothing behind; naturally, there will be nothing in the grave. Your coming to me is of no help."
