Yue Xin understood. She didn’t ask further and walked straight to the cell. At this moment, No.12 asked with concern, “Are you happy today?”

Yue Xin’s hand that was opening the door paused. After a while, she replied,

“Yes.”

“Yi Chengxuan told me a story today.”

It was written in the verse scripture: A gentleman of a hundred is ignorant of morals. If you don’t ask for it, what’s the use of it?

However, was there really someone in this world who did not wish for anything?

The next day, when No.12 went to Yue Xin’s room, Yue Xin went missing again. There was no movement in his earpiece for the entire day. Yue Xin didn’t seem to be in danger, nor did she need him anywhere. At night, Yue Xin came back with Maya’s ashes.

“Have you had dinner?” No.12 asked.

Yue Xin nodded. “Yes, I ate with Yi Chengxuan.”

For the next week, Yue Xin did this every day. She left Building No.7 in the morning and returned at night.

No. M12 finally couldn’t take it anymore. After staying up all night, he successfully caught Yue Xin, who was about to leave at four in the morning. “Can you take me with you?” He was worried about letting Yue Xin go to Yi Chengxuan’s place alone every day.

Initially, he thought that Yue Xin would refuse. No.12 had already prepared the “crying, making a fuss, and hanging himself” method he had learned from Mi Aya. Even if he had to destroy his image today, he had to go with Yue Xin. However, Yue Xin nodded calmly. “Alright, let’s go together.”

No.12 had to hold back applying the skills he had learned over the past few days.

Yue Xin would never know what she had missed that day.

The two of them went to Building No.5 together. No.12 followed Yue Xin in directly. Only then did he realize that Yue Xin had already been set up as a green card character in Building No.5. Not only could she enter and leave Building No.5 at any time, but she could also bring people in and out.

There were two levels of green cards in each building. One was that one could enter and leave as one pleased, and the other was that not only could one enter and leave as one pleased, but one could also bring people along.

Usually, only prisoners on the 30th floor and above could bring people in and out at will. Building No.5. which Yi Chengxuan was in charge of. did not have a level system, so only those in power could bring people in and out. In other words, Yue Xin’s authority in Building No.5 was similar to Yi Chengxuan’s.

Especially when No.12 followed Yue Xin and saw her open the elevator with her face and successfully pass the iris certification to take the elevator directly to the 36th floor, he had an illusion. Was he currently in Building No. 7 or

Building No. 5? Was his master the person in charge of Building No. 7 or Building No. 5? No.

Buildings No.5 and No.7 were not very far apart. They could be reached in about ten minutes on foot. At this moment, it was 4:25 a.m. when the two of them reached the 36th floor of Building No.5. The lights on the entire 36th floor were dim, and only the lights in the corridor glowed weakly.

Yue Xin walked to a wall, fumbled around, and pressed the switch. With two clicks, the originally dark 36th floor lit up. Then, she skillfully entered a room and opened the refrigerator. She took out a box of peach pastries and opened a cabinet with familiarity. There were dense tea leaves inside. She turned to ask No.12, “What tea do you want?”

No.12 was stumped. He remembered that Yue Xin didn’t have the habit of drinking tea in the past. Had she learned it from Yi Chengxuan in the past few days?

“Just help me choose one.”

Yue Xin took a look and casually took a box of tea leaves. She sat at Yi Chengxuan’s tea table and began to make tea. Whether it was boiling the cup, pouring the tea, or brewing the tea, she looked very skilled and happy. Follow current s on No(v)elFire.net

No.12 looked at Yue Xin making tea and his worried heart inexplicably calmed down.

Yue Xin handed the two cups of tea to No.12 and picked up a peach pastry. She took a bite and took a sip of tea before continuing to eat.

There was already no sound in the early morning. After the sound of tea brewing was gone, only the sound of their breathing and the inaudible chewing could be heard between the two of them.

No.12 also took a sip of tea. Just as he was about to savor it carefully, he almost vomited. It was so bitter, awfully bitter. How many tea leaves had been added to make it so bitter?

No.12 looked at Yue Xin, who was eating the peach pastry and tea leisurely in front of him. He suddenly understood why she wanted to eat with the snacks. He looked at the cup again and hesitated a little. Then, he gritted his teeth, picked up the teacup, and drank it in one gulp!

After drinking this cup of tea that was even more bitter than his life, No.12’s facial features gathered.

Yue Xin, who was still taking small sips of snacks and tea, was stunned when she saw this scene. After swallowing the peach pastry in her mouth, she said in surprise, “You actually finished all of it. Yi Chengxuan is unwilling to drink the tea I make every time. He said it would kill him.”

Hearing this, No.12’s mood instantly fluctuated. He felt uncomfortable until he heard Yue Xin’s next sentence.

“I’m glad you can finish it.”

No.12 had to admit that he was such an easily satisfied person.

“…As long as you’re happy, I’ll drink as many cups as you want…”
