Chapter 793 Summer Heat

In the garden, Yue Yue was crouching down and pulled out some leeks from the small vegetable patch they had grown in the backyard. She craved to eat some noodles with leeks so she especially came to take the fresh leeks from the garden herself.

But seeing that red and round tomato she was tempted and almost salivated. She plucked off two tomatoes and was about to take a bite into the juicy tomato when a hand held her wrist and stopped her.

Yue Yue turned her head and looked at the maid who stopped her with a look of displeasure. Of course, she wasn't pleased.

"Sorry for being presumptuous," said the maid. "But you can't eat this. Let me wash it for you and then you can eat it."

Yue Yue obviously didn't wish to wait and her face actually said it all.

The maid could only say, "Although we don't use pesticides, there are still germs on the vegetables. We shouldn't consume them so carelessly." Of course, she had to be attentive around Yue Yue or else she'd have to face Mu Chenyan's wrath.

And who wanted to face Mu Chenyan? That woman protected Yue Yue like a pearl.

But everyone in this family tacitly agreed that Yue Yue needed protection. Just a delicate woman would evoke anyone's sense of protection.

Yue Yue sighed silently and nodded her head. What else could she do? She knew the maid was saying it for her good. She couldn't possibly be angry with someone for caring about her.

As she was sulking to herself, she felt an intense gaze. She frowned to herself and turned her head. And that's when her eyes met Zhai Kuijun who was staring wide-eyed at her through the window of the living room. Zhai Kuijun's eyes widened even further when Yue Yue turned her head and looked right into his eyes.

Zhai Kuijun was in disbelief and felt like he was tripping right now. He lifted his hands and rubbed his eyes. But when he opened his eyes, Yue Yue was gone. That startled him and he almost plastered his body against the window but she was really gone! How could someone vanish right before his eyes? Did that even make sense?

Even if he thought he was tripping, he still wanted to believe that what he saw was the real person and not just his imagination. He was certain he was getting old but he hadn't lost his mind yet! He definitely saw her just now. Then where did she go?

He calmed himself down and thought about it. If he saw the person here, she had to be here. He turned around and decided to check it out in the garden.

Meanwhile, the person who actually vanished in the blink of an eye was currently crawling behind the bush. It's not that she wanted to hide from Zhai Kuijun but... It seemed her body was used to hiding after so many years. Now, she instinctively felt like she had to hide. But after hiding, she thought about why was she hiding?

Was she a criminal? Why did she feel the need to hide?

Mu Chenyan was right, she did nothing wrong. So, why was she trying too hard to run? It didn't make sense.

But now that she was already behind the bushes, she just continued to crawl towards the back door to enter the house. She knew she had to come face to face with Zhai Kuijun but she wasn't ready today. She'll face him another day. For today, let's just continue to hide.

She definitely didn't think there was anything wrong with her thinking. She didn't even realize that her mentality was exactly like those people who said they'll start dieting tomorrow but the truth was, their tomorrow never came. Even if she realized this, she won't think there was anything wrong with her mentality.

On the other hand, Zhai Kuijun was about to go out when he ran into Xiang Hulin who came back. Looking at Zhai Kuijun's expressions, he raised his brow.

"Where are you going?" asked Xiang Hulin.

"I just saw Yue!" exclaimed Zhai Kuijun excitedly.

Xiang Hulin instantly understood why Zhai Kuijun looked so excited all of a sudden. "Oh, where?" asked Xiang Hulin keeping his poker face up.

Zhai Kuijun didn't hide and told him, "In the back garden."

"How is that possible?" questioned Xiang Hulin.

Zhai Kuijun tsked at him, "Do you think I am a fool? I obviously saw her. If you don't believe me, let me pass. I have to check it myself. Don't waste my time here."

"Okay, I'll go with you to check it out," Xiang Hulin didn't try to act obviously in front of Zhai Kuijun. He couldn't leave any flaw in his performance right now.

Zhai Kuijun didn't think much about Xiang Hulin and said, "Okay. Then let's go together."

Then with Xiang Hulin, he went to the back garden but didn't see anyone. He looked around but didn't find a single soul in sight. This really exasperated him.

"Where is she?" asked Xiang Hulin casually. "Are you sure you saw her here?"

"I'm sure," retorted Zhai Kuijun. "She was standing right here. And our eyes even met. I'm sure she saw me. But then she... Disappeared." He was gonna go crazy just thinking about this.

"Tsk. That was definitely your imagination," stated Xiang Hulin. He patted Zhai Kuijun's shoulder and said, "Don't worry. It happens. Summers are hot. We can get such hallucinations. No big deal."

Zhai Kuijun's lips twitched when he heard Xiang Hulin's words. What did he mean? That he was having hallucinations because the heat of this summer got to his head? Then how come it only happened now? Even when he got heatstroke, he didn't any hallucinations!

The more he thought about this situation, the more he felt something was wrong. He wasn't the young Zhai Kuijun who didn't understand people that well. But now, he was able to see and understand a lot of things. Like right now, he felt like something was seriously wrong with Xiang Hulin's reaction.
