Chapter 1087 Perplexed and Smitten 147
Fang Erlan opened her eyes slowly, bit by bit, only to discover that she was now in a different place. The moment she realized that she was on the peak of the mountain, she took a few steps back unknowingly and spluttered, “How… how did you… just what are you?”
She finally understood why An Xiaoning was helpless when it came to dealing with Xiao Chenyang and why she had advised her not to call the police. Indeed, what can the police possibly do about someone like him?
Fang Erlan was filled with anguish at the thought of being controlled by him for the rest of her life.
“It doesn’t matter what I am. What matters is who I belong to.”
“Who do you belong to, then?”
“Must you still ask? I belong to you, of course.”
Fang Erlan began crying tears of shock and bewilderment. “God, please spare me. I’m just a weak and ordinary woman.”
He chuckled and said, “The only way you can survive is to please me and make me happy. Don’t provoke me. That’s the only solution that you have.”
Fang Erlan bawled even more loudly upon hearing his words.
I don’t want to!
However, Xiao Chenyang did not waver despite her incessant crying and tantrums. He was willing to be her bodyguard for free!
“You can’t be thinking of making me stay here forever, can you?” After all, she had already taken a close look and discovered that there was no path that one could walk along to get to the bottom of the mountain.
Just how was this place constructed?
“Of course not. We’ll go back tomorrow since that’s what I had promised you. However… if you ever provoke me again in the future, I might really just take you here and keep you here with me forever. Just us two.”
“I won’t, I won’t, I definitely won’t make you angry again in the future,” she said, waving her hands frantically. Hah, I’m not a fool, why would I dig my own grave after seeing for myself the extraordinary powers that he had?
“That better be the case. Are you hungry?” he asked with a look of satisfaction.
“I’m hungry.”
“What would you like to eat?”
“Buy me everything that’s delicious. I need some comfort food to recover from the shock.”
“Alright, wait for me here while I go buy them for you. Don’t go too near the edge. I’m not going to be responsible if you fall off and get reduced to shreds.”
“I know, I know, hurry along.”
After he left, Fang Erlan followed suit. The bright sun was casting its golden rays onto her, making her feel warm all of a sudden.
Fang Erlan whipped out her mobile phone to take a look, only to discover that there was indeed no reception.
She hugged her knees and sat on the ground, unable to bring herself to smile at all.
At this very moment, Yan Ge popped up in her mind.
She began tearing up.
What is he doing now?
Is he still upset and angry with me?
Is he still blaming me for being ignorant?
Does he also regret recommending that apartment to me, especially because it’s opposite his?
Does he not want to see me ever again?
Fang Erlan opened a hidden folder in the photo album on her mobile phone, which could not be seen if one did not dig deep.
The hidden folder contained only photos of Yan Ge.
Fang Erlan sat outside for a long while before returning inside the cave. She scanned the place carefully and discovered that it was indeed very well furnished. Was this where he lived? she wondered.
She walked toward the bed and found that it was rather soft.
Due to the immense fright she had gotten last night, she did not have a good night’s sleep.
She had an entire night full of nightmares and was now a little sleepy.
She would feel the urge to fall asleep whenever she lay down on a bed.
Fang Erlan lay down comfortably and kept her eyes fixed on the ceiling above. Soon, she slipped into a daze and fell asleep.
She woke up more than an hour later to see that Xiao Chenyang was sitting on the bed and gazing at her.
“What are you looking at?” Fang Erlan asked in discomfort.
“You.”
“Your bed is too magnetizing. I only sat down for a while and somehow just dozed off right after.”
“Seems like I’m not as attractive to you as my bed is. This bed is meant for other purposes apart from sleeping. Let’s use it together another day and you’ll get to experience how wonderful it is.”
Blushing red with embarrassment, Fang Erlan chided, “What do you mean wonderful? You’re spouting nonsense again.”
“How am I spouting nonsense?” Pointing at the food on the table, he said, “Fortunately, it’s summertime. If it were wintertime now, the food would definitely turn cold very quickly.”
Fang Erlan walked toward the table to see that he had bought several types of dishes, as well as some milk tea and other beverages. They were all to her liking.
“Xiao Chenyang.”
“Yes?”
“I have a feeling there are a lot of secrets about you that I’m unaware of. Did you use to live here?”
“This used to be my second home.”
“Where’s your first home, then?”
Gazing at her, he answered, “My first home is wherever you are.”
“Have you ever thought about it carefully? We come from different walks of life, and living like this will lead to no outcome… Actually, you’ll never be truly happy in a relationship that’s forced. All you’ll experience is torment and hardship.”
“We’ve yet to really spend time together, how do you know that we’re from different walks of life?”
“I just know it.”
“You’ll find out once we give it a try.”

After contacting the sales office of Sanqiao Estate, Mo Li found out that there was an available unit in the same block, which the previous owner had decided to sell because of work issues.
Upon hearing the news, she immediately proceeded to view the apartment. After all, it was in the same block as her current unit and was situated on the fifth floor.
She felt that it was an opportunity not to be missed because it had a splendid location.
After taking a look inside the apartment, she discovered that it was exquisitely renovated, and all she had to do was to move her furniture and belongings into the apartment.
The owner of the apartment, Unit 501, finally decided to sell it to Mo Li after having a proper discussion with her.
The three-bedroom apartment covered an area of 130 square foot and was sold at a price of about 50 thousand dollars per square foot.
Mo Li knew that she did not incur any losses because she had bought her apartment at a price of about 40 thousand dollars per square foot. It was slightly cheaper due to the fact that it was on the 32nd floor. Thus, 50 thousand dollars per square foot for an apartment that was situated on the fifth floor was rather reasonable and quite a bargain.
After settling the procedures, she would have to begin moving to the fifth floor once the owner was to move away in a few days.
However, Mo Li and No. 8 had agreed not to sell the apartment on the 32nd floor for the time being, since they were not cash-strapped at the moment. They decided to let Mo Li’s parents move into it. That way, they would be able to live in close proximity and yet enjoy the privacy of living in their own homes.
What a wonderful plan.
Mrs. Mo was heartened and touched to hear the decision that they had made. She said, “You’re so thoughtful. How could we possibly squeeze into the same apartment as you guys? That would be so inconvenient for everyone. It’s great that you’re letting us move into a separate apartment now. That’d make life so much easier. I can tell that he really treats you well with all his heart.”
Mo Li answered, “Mother, you even tried to make me give up on No. 8. See? He’s so considerate toward you and Father.”
“I was just worried about you. He’s such a thoughtful and filial child. You two must be very cautious from now on. Don’t let history repeat itself.”
