Time flew by, and in a blink of an eye, three days had passed.
These three days had been extremely pleasant for Zhai Cheng and Song Ge. Usually, they would each curl up in a quiet corner, reading books or listening to music.
Once, Song Ge suddenly had the thought that it wouldn't be bad to live here forever.
However, considering the real - world problems, the thought disappeared within a split - second as she quickly suppressed it.
It was already the third day, and there was still no sign of anything happening. Had their plan been seen through?
Could their plan have failed, and they had just wasted more than three days waiting here in vain?
Both Song Ge and Zhai Cheng felt a headache thinking about this. Although they didn't say it explicitly, their concerns were still visible on their faces.
The sun rose again. Song Ge sat on the sofa listlessly and let out a heavy sigh.
"It's already the fourth day. Why is there still no sign of anything?" Song Ge was in a gloomy mood, with her brows tightly furrowed.
Zhai Cheng looked calm on the surface, but he also had such concerns in his heart. "We'll wait one more day tomorrow. If there's no news, we'll go back."
There were still things waiting for him to handle at the company. He couldn't just stay here waiting and ignore all his work.
"Yeah. If that person still doesn't take action after one more day, it means he won't take action no matter how much time he's given." Song Ge nodded in agreement, her words tinged with disappointment.
She had thought they would surely catch the mastermind this time, but unexpectedly, they still hadn't seen that person.
Although she had to admit that living here was really nice and she even wanted to stay here forever, the overall situation was more important.
The two spent another boring day in the villa, and nothing happened during this day. Everything was unexpectedly quiet.
As night fell, for safety reasons, they both sat in the living room, each busy with their own things.
"Are you hungry? I'll go cook." Song Ge suddenly jumped up from the sofa and walked straight into the kitchen.
Zhai Cheng watched her enter the kitchen with some worry in his heart. Wouldn't she mess up the kitchen again?
Because of a similar past experience, Zhai Cheng had been nervously watching the direction of the kitchen since Song Ge entered.
"What would you like to eat? Is noodles okay?" Song Ge's loud voice came from the kitchen.
Zhai Cheng gave a soft "hmm". Actually, he wasn't very picky about food. It didn't matter what he ate as long as it was edible.
"Then I'll make noodles with gravy." Having received a positive answer, Song Ge tilted her head and wandered around in the kitchen.
Looking at the ingredients in the kitchen, she thought that making noodles with gravy was the easiest and she was quite good at it, so she decided to make it.
"Coming, coming." Song Ge carefully ran out of the kitchen with a bowl of steaming noodles in her hands. At first glance, it was a bit funny.
Zhai Cheng still had the shadow of her almost burning down the kitchen in his mind. Looking at the still - steaming bowl of noodles on the coffee table, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, with a hint of amusement in his eyes. "It looks quite good."
"Of course. This can be considered one of my signature dishes, okay." Song Ge rolled her eyes at him and said irritably.
The man beside her just smiled noncommittally and said nothing.
Zhai Cheng was used to eating at the dining table, but after coming here, Song Ge insisted on eating on the coffee table, saying that it felt good and sitting on the sofa was more comfortable.
Although he was initially reluctant, he couldn't resist her, so he had to compromise and eat with her on the sofa.
The food tasted quite good, and there was a warm feeling, like the long - lost feeling of home.
The two ate and chatted, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious, except that Song Ge would occasionally get angry with Zhai Cheng.
"I cooked the food, so you should wash the dishes." Song Ge drank the last mouthful of soup in the bowl and spread her hands, ignoring everything else.
Zhai Cheng's eyes changed slightly. Was this woman ordering him around?
"Are you ordering me?" Zhai Cheng also ate the noodles in his bowl slowly and cleanly, then looked up at her leisurely.
What had she just said? Oh no, how could she forget that the person eating with her was Zhai Cheng?
Under his burning gaze, Song Ge inexplicably felt a bit guilty. Just as she was about to find an excuse to get out of this, she saw him staring intently at her face.
Song Ge reached out her hand in confusion, wondering if there was something on her face.
"Don't move." Zhai Cheng interrupted her in a low voice, with a faint smile on his lips.
Song Ge felt even more nervous and stammered, "Wh...what's wrong?"
This man never looked at others with such a look. Could it be that she had splashed something on her face while cooking?
Zhai Cheng slowly leaned forward, stared at her face intently for a while, and then suddenly reached out his hand.
Song Ge watched his hand getting closer and closer but didn't understand what he was going to do. In her nervousness, she tightly closed her eyes.
"You can even get noodles on your lips while eating. You're so clumsy." Zhai Cheng's deep voice came from beside her ear.
Because they were so close, Song Ge could clearly feel his warm breath on her neck, and his hand with a slight callus gently brushed across her face.
Wasn't this kind of behavior something only lovers would do? Song Ge, with her carefree personality, only had two words in her mind - ambiguous.
"I...I'll do it myself." Song Ge's little face flushed instantly. After understanding what he was going to do, she slowly opened her eyes and looked at him somewhat shyly.
However, as soon as Song Ge opened her eyes, she fell into a pair of gentle eyes. At this moment, the tenderness in his eyes was almost overflowing. He gave a soft laugh. "Can you see?"
The two of them locked eyes, and for a moment, all kinds of emotions welled up in their hearts. The scenes they had experienced during this period also flashed before their eyes frame by frame.
Soft music was still playing in the living room, and the warm light shone on the two of them. Everything was so beautiful that one couldn't bear to disturb it.
Zhai Cheng suddenly thought, he had never noticed that this girl was actually quite good - looking.
Whether it was the beautiful light or the perfect music, by the time Zhai Cheng came to his senses, he had already pushed Song Ge down on the sofa, and he was hovering above her.
The two still stared into each other's eyes, and Song Ge didn't resist his actions.
Her usually chattering lips were tightly pursed because of nervousness. Zhai Cheng stared at her lips, and a voice in his mind was shouting crazily.
After just a few seconds of hesitation, Zhai Cheng unconsciously leaned down, and their lips were getting closer and closer.
Song Ge's mind went blank. For a moment, she didn't react at all and just watched as they got closer and closer.
"Beep... beep..."
The alarm sound rushed in through the crack of the door. In an instant, the living room was filled with the alarm sound.
