When the long-awaited silence arrived, Chen Yuan greedily savored every precious second.
In the documentary, a small rodent frolicked through the dead leaves and branches of a jungle. Chen Yuan watched the screen in silence. All the surrounding noise had vanished, and Jiangg Yao was no longer bustling about.
These few minutes were so peaceful and serene, it felt as though time had slowed to a crawl.
'If only this could last…'
But Jiangg Yao suddenly shattered his fantasy. She spoke softly, her vermillion lips parting almost imperceptibly as she whispered a question.
"Why did you have such a strong reaction? You never used to be like that. You gave me a real fright. My heart still flutters when I think about it, you know, Young Master?"
"Hm... I don't know."
Chen Yuan shifted his legs, causing the laptop on his lap to tilt. He turned to glance at Jiangg Yao and gave a curt reply.
Clearly, he didn't want to continue this conversation.
