Unlike Ran Feng Ge who was able to fall asleep quickly, Su Yi Mo struggled.

He was not actually upset that Ran Feng Ge had left him all alone in the kitchen on clean up duty; what he wasn't happy about was...

It was how overly confident Ran Feng Ge had been when he announced that he was definitely going to think of a plan to save Jing Qiu Han's younger sister...

How was he going to do that?

How could Su Yi Mo not know what kind of man Lan Kuang was? Although he did not know what exactly happened between Ran Feng Ge and Lan Kuang in the past, if he wanted to snatch someone from the hands of Lan Kuang, it was definitely not going to be that simple!

All Su Yi Mo could think of at this moment was the night Ran Feng Ge had returned home drunk and confused. Ran Feng Ge had lain sprawled on his bed, his brows furrowed deep as he fought the nightmares in his head, his words slurring as he kept repeating the same sentence over and over.

"... Lan Kuang... I am not him... I am not him..."

Who is he... not?

Unless... Lan Kuang had Ran Feng Ge stand in as a lover of sorts before? And... had his way with him?

Su Yi Mo felt that his mental state was slowly growing out of his control—to the point of imagining Ran Feng Ge being pinned under Lan Kuang as the latter did unimaginable things to him.

Damn it!

The Su Yi Mo who hadn't even gotten into bed yet, impatiently paced the length of his room, ended up hitting the wall with his fist moodily.

Could it be that the idea Ran Feng Ge had to save Jing Qiu Han's younger sister was to get close to Lan Kuang and let him have his way with him...

No!

Su Yi Mo vehemently rejected the idea in his head.

Reaching for his phone, Su Yi Mo dialled a number and coldly said: "I'll give you three days. No matter what you have to do, find me the whereabouts of Jing Qiu Lan!"

Only after he had ended the call did Su Yi Mo's mood lift a little. No matter what, he was not going to let Ran Feng Ge approach that demon dressed in human clothes, Lan Kuang.

The next day.

Ran Feng Ge lazily made his way down from the second floor to wash up when he spotted Su Yi Mo coming out of the washroom holding a towel. Dark shadows loomed across Su Yi Mo's features.

"Did you not sleep well last night?" Ran Feng Ge asked as he brushed his teeth, looking a little comical with toothpaste on the corner of his lips.

Su Yi Mo raised his head, eyeing Ran Feng Ge but did not say anything. Without a sound, Su Yi Mo used the towel in his hands to cover his face as he sat down on the couch and allowed his body to relax into the leather—a look of utter peace on him.

Looking at him like that, Ran Feng Ge made his way into the kitchen and took out a bag of milk from the fridge. Using his teeth to rip an opening on the bag, he walked up to Su Yi Mo and removed the towel covering his face. He then poured a small amount of fresh milk onto his fingers before rubbing them around the area of Su Yi Mo's eyes.

[PN: First time ever hearing of bagged milk, but it's a real thing]

"This is my family's secret recipe! Lie still and don't move!"
