Chapter 613: The Market Is About to Crash!
After speaking, Zhu Yanyi thought of the embroidery she had done in the past. She giggled, "Luckily, I embroidered some things when I had free time. It should be enough to pass." It seemed her daily embroidery was just to handle Old Li’s checks.
Yan Aohan chuckled, "Yes, you really prepared well for the future." He then added, "Be careful when you go out. Better safe than sorry. Keep your gun with you."
Zhu Yanyi paused, thinking. She had been wondering whether to tell Yan Aohan about her special ability. Seeing him care for her so much, she finally spoke up. "Um, Brother Yan."
"Hmm?" Yan Aohan raised his eyebrows slightly, looking at Zhu Yanyi with focus, signaling her to continue.
Zhu Yanyi lowered her head. "Actually, I have been hiding something." Her voice sounded a bit nervous.
"I guess it must be very important to you," Yan Aohan said calmly. He was not angry. Since she was telling him now, he was willing to listen.
Zhu Yanyi swallowed. "Actually, that time at the forensic department, I prepared early because I knew people were coming. Because…" Zhu Yanyi looked up at Yan Aohan seriously. "I have a special ability. It lets me talk to plants, like flowers and trees. So when people enter their range, no matter how they hide, I know. The plants tell me."
Yan Aohan was slightly surprised. His eyes lit up, and he nodded with a smile. "I knew you had other abilities. I thought you had your reasons for not saying, so I didn’t ask. Now that you tell me, it shows you trust me, Ani. I am very happy."
Very happy? Zhu Yanyi was confused. Was she happy because she told her about her ability? She was inexperienced in feelings, even after two lives. She didn’t understand what she meant. "You knew I had an ability?"
"I only guessed you might have other ways or skills. As for special abilities, if you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t know," Yan Aohan said. He reached out and smoothed the hair falling on Zhu Yanyi’s forehead. "My internal energy is very high now, though I tell others it is at the peak of the Hua Jing stage. I came from the An Jing stage, so I know what late-stage An Jing is like. I can hear wind and sense objects, but I only know something is there. I can never be as precise as you."
Zhu Yanyi didn’t expect such a big flaw in her disguise. She was stunned. Yan Aohan’s eyes grew gentler. "But, Ani, I am really happy you told me your secret. It means you trust me." Yan Aohan’s face showed a joy that came from deep inside.
"You are happy." Zhu Yanyi stared, not understanding why he made her so happy. She didn’t know that for Yan Aohan, this cautious girl sharing her deepest secret meant she was starting to get close to him. It was mutual trust, and that was what he valued most.
