Forget It, I'm Mentally Exhausted

After Su Yuxin had once again fiercely replenished her "Ye Feng energy," she finally let go of him. Just then, a man in a black uniform and white gloves walked in through the door. Upon seeing Su Yuxin, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Miss, are you alright? I noticed you hadn’t come out for a while."

"I’m fine. I was just chatting with my teacher. Could you wait outside a little longer, Uncle?"

"Of course."

The driver nodded and then glanced at Ye Feng, greeting him with a polite "Hello, Mr. Ye," before leaving.

"Huh? How do they know my name?"

Ye Feng was startled when the driver greeted him. He hadn’t expected that as a mere private tutor, his name would be known by so many people. It was strange.

"Oh, that uncle is my dad’s personal driver. It’s normal for him to know about you, Teacher."

"Is that so..."

What Ye Feng didn’t know was that ever since he left the Su Corporation Building last time, the news had spread like wildfire among the employees. Even the cleaning staff knew about him, often saying, "Ye Feng? Oh, I know him. He’s that handsome young man who charmed the young miss. Everyone knows about that."

"Alright, Teacher, don’t worry about such trivial things. What have you been teaching Li Mucheng these past few days?"

"Eh? Yuxin, don’t you know?"

"Know? Know what?"

Seeing Su Yuxin’s curious expression, Ye Feng realized that Su Wanli might not have told her about Li Mucheng being targeted. He probably didn’t want Su Yuxin to worry or insist on staying close to her best friend.

Thinking quickly, Ye Feng chuckled and said, "Oh, it’s just that Li Mucheng has been a bit distracted lately, so we haven’t had many proper lessons. Naturally, she hasn’t learned much."

"I see."

Su Yuxin believed Ye Feng’s words without suspicion and even pouted proudly.

"Hmph, if it were me, I’d definitely pay attention to your lessons. I wouldn’t be as stubborn as Mucheng."

"Haha... Yuxin, you’re always the most obedient."

Ye Feng could only agree awkwardly.

"Hehe."

As their conversation ended, the store clerk brought out the packaged desserts. Ye Feng noticed through the transparent plastic wrap that the two cakes he had bought were on the clerk’s left side, while Su Yuxin’s were on the right.

Seizing the moment when neither the clerk nor Su Yuxin was paying attention, Ye Feng quickly took the bag from the clerk’s hands, swapped the contents behind his back, and then handed it to Su Yuxin.

"Sorry, I need to hurry home. The meat I bought needs to be put in the fridge soon."

"Mmm... Then goodbye, Brother Ye Feng. I’ll be waiting for you~"

Su Yuxin took the bag from Ye Feng, her mood souring as she watched him leave. It seemed happiness was always fleeting.

After Ye Feng left, Su Yuxin saw no reason to stay any longer. Still, she was thrilled about running into him today. As she got into the car, she began plotting whether she could arrange a few more "chance encounters" in the coming days, given that Ye Feng seemed to be around the area.

"Alright, Uncle, let’s head back."

"Yes, Miss."

With a roar of the engine, the car disappeared down the street in the blink of an eye.

......

"Hmm?"

"What’s wrong, Miss? Did something happen?"

The driver, who had been focused on driving, immediately grew concerned when he heard Su Yuxin’s puzzled voice from the back seat. After all, his young miss was not only kind-hearted and adorable but also the beloved mascot of the entire Su Corporation. It was heartbreaking for everyone to see their cherished mascot seemingly swept away by a stranger.

"No... it’s nothing, Uncle. Keep driving."

Su Yuxin’s tone gradually softened, carrying a hint of quiet joy.

"Alright... alright."

Looking at the strawberry ice cream cake in her bag, still slightly chilled, Su Yuxin smiled happily.

Brother Ye Feng, you’re still so good to me. I really like it... I like you, Brother~

......

"Ding."

As Ye Feng stood outside the door, fumbling for his keys, the door suddenly opened. Xie Yuyan stood there, extending her hand toward him.

"Give it to me."

Ye Feng quickly squeezed past her, carrying the bags, and closed the door behind him. After setting the bags down, he turned to Xie Yuyan and said, "You’re getting too bold. Didn’t I tell you to be careful? Don’t do things that could easily get us caught."

"I know, I know. I just saw you carrying so much and wanted to help. Don’t be so worked up."

"Anyway, don’t do anything so risky in the future! Do you want all our efforts to go to waste?"

"Sorry..."

Seeing Xie Yuyan’s visibly downcast expression, Ye Feng realized he might have been too harsh. He quickly handed her one of the bags.

"Here, I bought you some pastries. See if you like them."

"For me?"

After a moment of hesitation, Xie Yuyan took the bag from Ye Feng. Her low spirits vanished instantly, replaced by a bright smile as she inhaled the rich aroma of cake.

"Thank you, Ye Feng."

"Go ahead and eat. They won’t taste as good if they sit too long. I’ll go organize the groceries and join you in a bit."

"Thanks for your hard work~"

After Ye Feng finished putting away the groceries he had bought from the mall, he sank into the soft couch and sighed, "Ah! There’s nothing better than a comfy couch."

Xie Yuyan, who was nibbling on a plastic spoon, nodded thoughtfully, then glanced down at her ample chest.

"How is it, Xie Yuyan? Does it taste good?"

"Mhm, it’s delicious! Ye Feng, you should try some too~"

With that, Xie Yuyan scooped up a piece of chocolate cake with her spoon and held it out to Ye Feng. He leaned back, waving his hands in refusal.

"No, no, you eat it, Xie Yuyan... Mmmph!"

Ye Feng hadn’t expected Xie Yuyan to completely disregard his refusal. She pinched his chin with one hand and forcefully shoved the spoon into his mouth. Left with no choice, Ye Feng had no option but to eat the cake.

"Xie Yuyan, at least be a little considerate. That’s the spoon you were using."

"What’s the big deal? It’s not like my mouth is poisonous. It’s just cake."

As she spoke, Xie Yuyan unabashedly scooped up another piece of cake and ate it, even licking the plastic spoon afterward.

"Why are you staring at me? Do you want another bite?"

"Never mind... I’m too tired for this."
