Chapter 565 Be With You (2)
Yan Xiuchen eyed the luggage in Xiao Rufeng's room. He hated seeing it as it reminded him that he wouldn't be able to see her for some time. He started brooding in the corner as he watched her clean her vanity and packed the remaining of her things.
Xiao Rufeng casted him a look through the mirror and smiled. She had never been with a man who looked at her like this. Someone who wasn't willing to part from her and it felt nice knowing that someone truly loved her without a doubt.
However, she needed to return to her father and help him deal with the company somehow. Things had been very trying for her father and she couldn't turn a blind eye to it. She'd been living in the past for far too long, and she wanted to start a new life with her father and Yan Xiuchen without her sister in it.
"Why the long face? It's not like you'll never see me again." She told her boyfriend. It wasn't like she wasn't sad about this temporary parting between them, but Xiao Rufeng also wanted to know if the passion and feelings they had for each other would remain despite the distance.
She was afraid that whatever she had with Yan Xiuchen, was just a fleeting feeling. That he would get tired of her or would change his mind about her and break up with her just like all her ex-boyfriends. Xiao Rufeng's previous relationships had never even lasted three months and she knew that she was the problem.
"I just didn't think that you'd need to leave this soon." Yan Xiuchen muttered with a sigh. He thought that they would have a bit more time together, especially now that they had just gotten together.
"I will be busy with filming these few days because they're starting the production for the second season of the series."
"Which only means that I won't be seeing you anytime soon." Yan Xiuchen finished the words for her.
Xiao Rufeng zipped her last luggage and went to sit on his lap, wrapping her arms lovingly around him. She noticed that Yan Xiuchen liked it when she initiated physical contact between them. Sometimes she would find him hesitating for a moment, wondering whether it was alright for him to hold her, to touch her, and she found it somewhat endearing. Yan Xiuchen would always give her the choice.
He brushed her hair off her shoulder, leaned in and kissed her cheek lovingly. Times like this made Xiao Rufeng feel warm and loved at the same time and she wanted to preserve it.
"I'll call you everyday when I have time, so you don't feel lonely when I'm not here with you." She assured him, but she knew that phone calls would never be enough. Xiao Rufeng would surely miss him.
Xiao Rufeng needed him to be near her. She had never thought that she would be the one clinging to him this badly. To her surprise, Yan Xiuchen had never said a word of complaint about her leaving, well, if she ignored his obvious display of disappointment.
"Hmm… I heard some disturbing news from your manager though. Something about being careful around Ye Mingyu." Yan Xiuchen said.
Xiao Rufeng pursed her lips and nodded. She thought that she was the only one who had noticed the sudden change in her fellow actress.
"She's changed… in a creepy way somehow." She agreed with him. "Something must have happened to her."
"A schoolmate of hers who turned out to be her stalker is also dead. I understand why Su Xiaofei would be wary of her."
Xiao Rufeng opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything in disbelief. Her manager didn't mention anything about it to her. She just thought that Ye Mingyu was unusually happy and friendly these days. She had no idea something as horrible as that had happened.
"You don't mind me adding a few security personnel on you, do you?" Yan Xiuchen asked. He almost forgot to discuss this with Xiao Rufeng because his mind was on something else.
She shook her head. Xiao Rufeng didn't want anyone to think that she had been relying on someone's help to keep her lead role on the show. She wasn't dating a simple man after all.
"Three is enough. I'll just limit my encounters and meetings with Ye Mingyu." She shrugged, but Yan Xiuchen wouldn't have it.
He would send extra men to protect her in the shadows. Yan Xiuchen wasn't sure what kind of person this Ye Mingyu was, but he wouldn't take any chances, not when his woman was involved with that clearly suspicious person.
"Alright. Just make sure not to give her any reason to seek you out. We'd rather not have any opening for Ye Mingyu to hurt you."
"I guess you are right." She sighed.
"I know I'm right. What do you plan to do with your sister?" Yan Xiuchen asked.
It was one thing to allow her to leave his side, but the thought of Xiao Yunyao scheming against Xiao Rufeng was something he would never allow to happen again. He would ensure that no one was able to harm his woman under his watch.
"I don't know. There's nothing else I could do for her. I just hope that she won't blame me for what happened."
"Well, she wouldn't have time to mess with you anyway. Not when everyone is doing everything to sue her for the damage she has done to their faces."
Xiao Rufeng didn't need to ask to know that he was talking about the premature formula that Xiao Yunyao's team released to the market. From the looks of it, the company pushed all the blame on Xiao Yunyao and she would be facing all the legal charges personally. Their father agreed to pay for the medical expenses and compensations involved to her sister's victims.
"Let's not talk about Ye Mingyu and Xiao Yunyao, shall we? I'd rather think and talk about us than them." She said, burying herself in his embrace.
