Love Apartment: Yifei is my junior aunt

Chapter 54 Illusion

"What's going on today? I'm so lucky to have breakfast with you all?"

"So, did you prepare a portion for me?"

Zeng Xiaoxian yawned as he walked out of the bedroom and saw Wan Yu and the others arranging the breakfasts they had bought. He immediately became curious.

Because of his job in the underworld, he doesn't get back to his apartment until three or four in the morning, and it's at least 9:30 before he gets up to have breakfast.

Very few people can have breakfast with him at this time. Even if someone occasionally oversleeps on the weekend to keep him company, the number of people will never be too large.

The lively scene of almost two suites of people sitting together eating breakfast is unprecedented.

"Good morning, Teacher Zeng." Everyone present greeted Zeng Xiaoxian warmly, but their enthusiasm could not hide their listless state.

Hu Yifei came out of the kitchen carrying a plate: "I definitely didn't prepare anything special for you, but I just happened to buy a bit too much breakfast today."

"If it can't finish eating later, I'll take it to the community's animal rescue center to feed the stray dogs."

"It's better to give it to me than feed it to the dogs," Zeng Xiaoxian said with a sly grin as he sat down.

The word "embarrassment" might exist in his dictionary, but it would never be in front of Hu Yifei.

Xiaoxian reached for the steamed buns on the table, but Yifei slapped his hand with her chopsticks.

"Look at yourself, your hair is a mess, and you haven't even wiped the sleep from the corners of your eyes. Go to the bathroom and brush your teeth and wash your face." Yifei glared at Zeng Xiaoxian while wiping the chopsticks with a tissue.

Looking at the fierce housekeeper, Zeng Xiaoxian didn't dare to say a word and quickly ran to the bathroom door, where he met Yu Mo, who was walking out of the bathroom.

After what happened last night, Yu Mo certainly couldn't still be wearing that bright red dress that she had worn through a bar and a fire.

Zeng Xiaoxian immediately recognized that the unfamiliar beauty in front of him was wearing Hu Yifei's clothes. However, when Yifei wore this long-sleeved shirt, it could barely cover her lower abdomen, but on this beauty, it became a crop top.

As for where she had more fabric than Hu Yifei, Zeng Xiaoxian dared not think about it.

But he dared to look.

"Ahem." Yifei coughed a few times behind her.

Zeng Xiaoxian felt two cold gazes staring intently at his back, so he quickly moved aside.

"Who is this?" Yu Mo walked past Xiao Xian and sat down next to Yi Fei, asking.

"That's a jerk." Hu Yifei made a gouge-out gesture at Zeng Xiaoxian, meaning, "Watch your eyes."

"oh."

Upon hearing her say this, Yu Mo immediately understood: "This is the Zeng Xiaoxian you've been talking about, right?"

What does that mean?

Just because someone says "bitch" they know my name?

Xiao Xian glared fiercely at Hu Yifei, thinking that this female devil must have been slandering his image everywhere.

Hu Yifei sneered and pretended not to see it.

Yu Mo waved to Zeng Xiaoxian: "Hello, Xiaoxian, I'm Yu Mo, a friend of Yifei. I've also listened to your show, 'Your Moon, My Heart,' and you did a very good job hosting it."

Zeng Xiaoxian raised an eyebrow and asked with a delighted expression, "Oh, so you're my fan?"

Yu Mo: "..."

That's going too far! You can only say "I don't know" once a day, which goes against your conscience.

I gave you a way out, and you're already thinking of using that as a stepping stone to the heavens?

"Be your fan?" Hu Yifei scoffed. "Other people's fans have such nice names, like 'Tofu Skin' or 'Jelly,' but this one person's fans are called 'Salted Vegetables.' It sounds so shabby it makes me want to cry."

"You!" Zeng Xiaoxian was furious, but he couldn't do anything about Hu Yifei.

"Alright, Yifei, Teacher Zeng's radio program isn't that bad," Yu Mo said, trying to mediate.

Okay, now I can't say things against my conscience tomorrow.

Meijia quickly ran to Xiaoxian's side and pushed him to the bathroom: "Teacher Zeng, you should go to the bathroom to wash up first. If you wait any longer, there won't be any salted vegetables, or even coarse food."

After finally getting Xiaoxian into the bathroom, everyone continued setting out breakfast.

Yu Mo kept glancing towards the balcony and the front door, looking restless.

Yifei lowered her head and whispered to her, "Don't look. Nanfeng eats breakfast at eight o'clock every morning without fail. He's already finished eating by now."

Yu Mo then stopped looking outside.

Yifei sighed.

Last night, the seven of them didn't get over the effects of falling in love at first sight until after 1 a.m. Seeing that it was already so late, they couldn't let Yu Mo go back alone, so they let her sleep with them last night.

As a result, this person refused to sleep even though it was so late, pestering me for hours on end, asking all sorts of questions, as if trying to find out everything about me.

Now Fei knew perfectly well what her best friend was really thinking.

If Nanfeng is in good health, then she'll have the idea, and I might even be able to help bring them together.

Although Yu Mo is five or six years older than Nan Feng, based on her understanding of Nan Feng, he is definitely not someone who cares about the age difference.

Besides, with Yu Mo's looks, figure, personality, and abilities, what makes her unworthy of Nan Feng?

But just as Nanfeng himself said, he was the kind of person who would fall into a deep sleep tonight and not know if he would see the sun rise the next day.

Even though Yifei always believed that someone as good as Nanfeng would surely be blessed with good fortune and live a peaceful life, ...

What if?

Nanfeng and Yumo are her best friends and even family. Because of this, she really can't imagine what the outcome would be if they encountered this "what if" after they got together.

Last night, Yifei wanted to tell Yumo Nanfeng the truth several times so that she could give up, but remembering Nanfeng's repeated instructions to keep it a secret, Yifei ultimately said nothing.

Well, Nanfeng knows what he's doing. Once Yumo hits a wall with him a few more times, he'll back down.

Yifei knows her best friend very well; she's definitely not the type to stubbornly persist even after hitting a wall, otherwise she wouldn't have agreed to go on a date with her a few days ago.

There are so many good men in the world. Next time, next time, I'll definitely introduce you to someone even better than Nanfeng.

Yu Mo ate her breakfast mechanically, finding it tasteless and unappetizing.

She had imagined countless scenarios of their reunion in her mind, but none of them matched the scene from last night.

When they met again, he was his best friend's junior apprentice, and she was his best friend's date.

Although the date never actually started, it was still incredibly awkward.

Not to mention that the place where they met was 3602, which had just been burned and flooded and was in a complete mess.

In such an awkward situation, and under the watchful eyes of so many people, he couldn't find a chance to catch up with him and explain to him what happened 475 days ago... no, it should be 476 days ago now.

Nanfeng, that's his name.

Yu Mo finally learned the name, but she wasn't as happy as she had imagined.

First and foremost, it's because of Nanfeng's attitude towards him.

Nanfeng's attitude was undeniably good. He treated me like a very close friend, just as he treated Yifei, Meijia, and Wanyu—almost without any difference.

But I just don't like this kind of indiscriminate treatment.

Secondly, Yu Mo discovered that Nan Feng had changed.

Whether it was the warm and understanding Nanfeng I met last night, or the Nanfeng that Yifei described as taciturn before the age of eighteen, who only knew how to play the piano, both Nanfengs had similarities to the resident singer in my memory, yet they seemed completely different.

The person in my memory was flamboyant, arrogant, unrestrained, and willful, yet kind-hearted. He laughed heartily when he was happy and mocked when he was not. He didn't need others to indulge him, but he would never indulge others either.

This is a hurricane that lives each day as if it were its last, moving only according to its own will.

It is this Nanfeng who possesses what Yu Mo longs for: the freedom to do as she pleases and the courage to try anything.

But Yu Mo didn't see any of these things last night, as if a shiny person had covered themselves with a layer of clay.

This has left Yu Mo feeling incredibly confused since last night.

It felt like I had found him, yet it also felt like I would never find him again.

It's as if everything is just a memory.

It was all an illusion.
