Chapter 619 A Dream of Yellow Millet

Spring dream without trace.

When Ye Shaohong woke up, it was already the morning of the next day.

In November, Wuhan was already deep into autumn. Due to its proximity to the Yangtze River, the air was filled with moisture and fog, making it both damp and cold.

After a good night's sleep, although your spirits have recovered, you still feel a bit sticky.

Ye Shaohong yawned, stretched, and sat up, supporting himself on the soft bed.

Then he remembered the bizarre dream he had last night.

That almost tangible tactile sensation. That soft, whimpering murmur.

All of this left Ye Shaohong with a lingering sense of satisfaction.

"It's just a dream..."

Silently shaking his head, Ye Shaohong didn't delay or hesitate any longer. He lifted the covers and was about to get out of bed.

Just then, Ye Shaohong suddenly saw a slender and delicate figure lying beside him.

"what?"

The moment Ye Shaohong saw this person, his eyes widened immediately, and his action of lifting the quilt to get out of bed froze on the spot.

"Hey, stop making noise!"

"Let me sleep a little longer..."

The woman, whose face was hidden by her long hair, shifted her body, her lips parting to let out a low moan of dissatisfaction.

"This...?" "What's going on?"

"Was I dreaming last night?"

Ye Shaohong was a little confused. He blinked and then came to his senses.

He raised his hand and reached towards the woman beside him.

When Ye Shaohong brushed aside the woman's long hair that was covering her face and saw her clearly, recognizing her as Yu Manli, he felt a sense of relief.

Then came another wave of disappointment.

As for where the disappointment lay, Ye Shaohong was certainly clear about it.

But he just wouldn't admit it.

After standing there dumbfounded for a moment, Ye Shaohong raised his hand and slapped Yu Manli's shapely buttocks in an annoyed manner.

"Still sleeping?"

"Get up quickly, don't forget we have guests today." After being urged, Ye Shaohong stopped wasting time and got out of bed.

As he was getting dressed, Yu Manli opened her sleepy eyes.

"what?"

"Didn't I sleep with Xiaowan? Why did I come back?"

Yu Manli sat up, rubbing her eyes with her hands, and exclaimed in surprise and confusion.

But then, she seemed to remember something.

But he immediately shut his mouth.

"You ask me, who should I ask?"

"I slept so soundly last night that I didn't even notice when you got back."

"When I woke up this morning and saw you next to me, I was startled too." After a few minutes, Ye Shaohong had already put on his trousers and shirt. Hearing Yu Manli's surprised question, Ye Shaohong turned around and glanced at her, replying in an annoyed tone.

"Why are you yelling at me so early in the morning?"

"Did you take gunpowder?"

"baffling!"

Yu Manli blinked her beautiful big eyes and finally came to her senses. She also sensed the hidden anger in Ye Shaohong's words and immediately retorted.

Then she slowly got up and dressed.

When she walked up to Ye Shaohong, Yu Manli gave him a slightly strange look.

For some reason, she suddenly reached out and pinched Ye Shaohong's lower back.

This almost made Ye Shaohong jump up.

"What's wrong?" "Last night I begged you to sleep with me, but you wouldn't agree."

"You came back on your own initiative, and you're blaming me?"

Ye Shaohong dodged Yu Manli's attack, rubbed his lower back where he had just been pinched, turned around and went out to the laundry room.

Watching Ye Shaohong's departing figure, Yu Manli stomped her foot in resentment.

Then she burst out laughing.

"That idiot..."

Ten minutes later.

Ye Shaohong and Yu Manli entered the restaurant on the first floor one after the other.

Yu Xiaowan had already arrived.

She was sitting at the long table in the restaurant, head down, eating wontons with pickled vegetables. To Ye Shaohong's surprise, there was a wine bottle in front of Yu Xiaowan.

"Drinking so early in the morning?"

Didn't you drink enough last night?

Ye Shaohong entered first and saw the table setting. He couldn't help but ask a question.

"Is this what you're talking about?"

"I occasionally have a little bit of wine, Jiangcheng Morning Wine, you've probably heard of it."

Yu Xiaowan smiled upon hearing this, gave Ye Shaohong a brief reply, and then shifted her gaze to Yu Manli.

"Sister Manli!"

"Ah."

"Xiao Wan, you're up so early! I was just about to go and wake you up."

Yu Manli raised her hand to greet Yu Xiaowan, then quickly walked a few steps past Ye Shaohong and sat down next to Yu Xiaowan.

In a mere instant, the two women began to whisper and chat amongst themselves.

During this time, Ye Shaohong would occasionally glance at the two of them.

Seeing that Yu Xiaowan's cheeks were flushed, he didn't pay much attention to it, because when they were drinking last night, Ye Shaohong noticed that Yu Xiaowan's face would turn red when she drank.

After breakfast, Ye Shaohong stood up and looked at Yu Manli and Yu Xiaowan.

"Would you like me to drive you to work in the morning?"

"Or perhaps...?"

"Why don't you two sisters spend a little more time alone?"

"no need."

"Shao Hong, you can go first. After breakfast, I will arrange a car to take Xiao Wan to the hospital."

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's words, Yu Manli raised her head and smiled at him.

After giving a brief answer, she lowered her head again.

As for Yu Xiaowan, she seemed not to have heard Ye Shaohong's words at all, and did not raise her head to look at Ye Shaohong once from beginning to end.

"alright."

Ye Shaohong nodded. He didn't know what was wrong with him today. When he was with Yu Manli and Yu Xiaowan, strange thoughts would inexplicably pop into his mind.

He wanted to investigate further and confirm his suspicions, but the attitudes and responses of Yu Manli and Yu Xiaowan left him at a loss.

Left with no other option, Ye Shaohong had to give up for the time being.

When he opened his mouth to respond, he was still a little disappointed, but since things had already come to this, there was no need to delve into it further. Ye Shaohong could only get up, put on his coat, and take the lead in leaving the house.

As Ye Shaohong's figure gradually disappeared, Yu Manli and Yu Xiaowan, who had been eating with their heads down, finally raised their heads at the same time.

"call!"

"That was close! I almost couldn't hold back and gave myself away!"

"Xiao Wan, did he find out what we did last night?"

Yu Manli knew Ye Shaohong's abilities; with his intelligence, he could detect and perceive even the slightest clue.

That's why she deliberately tried to get close to Yu Xiaowan after entering the restaurant and meeting her.

She just didn't want Ye Shaohong to notice anything unusual about her.

"Probably not."

“He was sleeping soundly when you got back last night, how could you have noticed anything?” “Believe me, I’m a doctor, I can confirm that.”
