From Dusk till Dawn!

Chapter 185: Hey, can't we talk like friends?

"I will not burn myself, Yuhan."

"But.."

"Yes yes, my back is alright. And, of course, I'm not a kid," Her yearning for some delicate desserts have reached to the point that she couldn't even wait to heat the rest of the food. Whenever information was too much for her to digest, she relied on food.

Who would have some time to listen to the husband's nagging when the food addiction kicked in?

"Aaaaah!" The spatula dropped on the floor and the woman, who was ready to savor her favorite chocolate cupcake lost balance as it smudged on her mouth. Tang Li gritted her teeth, "Mo Yuhan, can you not be so stubborn?"

The man chuckled, "Uh-huh."

"Sit here, I'll serve the food," He helped her on the chair. She furrowed her brows as her finger traced the chocolate cream on her lips, "Can I at least clean my face?"

He leaned in before licking the corner of her lips softly as he sucked the cream from her fingers; his face still as impassive as ever, "There's no need now. You are all clean."

"_" The men who were treated as being invisible pretended to be the part of the backdrop.

'Why must he lick me once, leaving me to crave for more?' Tang Li frowned at the thought.

Oh hello! Are you sure this is the right thing to think about? This PDA is illegal, alright?!

...

Her hair styled in a messy bun as she wore a pair of glasses covering her doe-eyes. There was no glamorous makeup on her face or rather you could say she had made herself a shade darker by applying some foundation.

Her supermodel aura seemed to have disappeared into thin air with that new style of hers but somehow, he couldn't take his eyes off her.

Ying Yue sighed frustratedly as she tried to sit up while pretending to not know the man but his grip on her waist tightened causing her to fall back on him.

Her lips landed on his chin as her eyes widened, "Mo Zihan, let me go..." Can't you see I'm trying my best to avoid you at all costs?

"Hey, what a coincidence to see you here," he smiled, one of his hand was below his head as made himself comfortable on the cold floor while the other one rested on her waist.

She blanked out for a second after seeing his smile. "What a beautiful coincidence, indeed," she mumbled, her voice barely audible.

Mo Zihan raised an eyebrow as he pulled her closer, his lips a few inches away from hers, "Did you say something, Yueyue?"

Yueyue? Her eyes widened as a blush crept up her cheeks. She pushed him away and stood up before walking away as fast as she could.

Mo Zihan frowned as he followed after her. "Hey, can't we talk like friends?" He regretted it the moment he blurted it out of his mouth.

Her steps paused as she turned around. "Friends?" she softly asked.

...

"What?! You've been using this artificial skin for years? Why?" Tang Li had her eyes wide as she looked at the man who nonchalantly nodded. This is just too much...she popped another chocolate cupcake into her mouth to calm her blood pressure.

Tang Yichen poked her cheeks, "Such a glutton."

Master Song chuckled at their interactions, "The young Xiao Chen used to look like me, everything about him was the same. When the people around me were suddenly killed or started disappearing, I realized they are of his age group.." He paused before adding, "I had an intuition that they want to kill my son based on it until they attacked the daughter of a friend who happened to meet me by chance."

He was honestly confused at that time. Why would they attack someone's daughter? The logic of wanting to kill his son didn't work well here as he was still unaware of his daughter's existence.

But he didn't want to endanger his son's life. To take precautions, he used the artificial skin because, by the way, the mastermind acted, it could be assumed that he has not seen his face. It was a guess though; he was never sure about it.

For a moment, Tang Yichen's brows bumped together as he felt a pang of guilt in his chest. Was it right for him to ignore this man?

"Fankky, i's ow-wajus... Mmandd... mmmpph," Mo Yuhan put another delicate muffin in her mouth as he looked at her disapprovingly, "Eat slowly, don't talk with your mouth full!"

Master Song laughed, "I couldn't understand your foreign language, princess!"

Tang Li coldly narrowed her eyes ignoring the men who were teasing her. She just craved for some desserts because of the tension, what's wrong with that?

"Frankly, it's outrageous," Mo Yuhan repeated what she said making her eyes widen for a moment.

"What's outrageous?" Tang Yichen, as a clueless person asked curiously, wanting to get slapped on his face with some PDA.

Mo Yuhan raised an eyebrow, "That's what she said."

The men had a knowing look on their faces.

Tang Li hastily gulped the rest of the muffin before speaking up, "Mm...I wanted to ask, how did you find us after so many years?"
