Mu Yunfan walked up to the second floor with a plate of sunshine egg fried rice. Before entering the room, Mu Yunfan felt a bit anxious, afraid that Phyllis had done something foolish during this time. It wasn't until Mu Yunfan pushed open the door and saw Phyllis still sitting on the edge of the bed that he relaxed. At this moment, Phyllis sat on the bed with dull eyes, seemingly indifferent to everything.

However, as soon as Mu Yunfan entered, a strong aroma wafted in. Phyllis couldn't help but be energized by the scent, exclaiming in her heart, "It smells so good!"

Then, Phyllis saw the plate of egg fried rice Mu Yunfan was holding. Each plump grain of rice in the dish shone with a faint luster, and the scattered eggs looked like golden flowers adorned with vibrant green onions. The appearance alone was already extremely alluring. Combined with the irresistibly enticing fragrance, it made one's mouth water.

Previously, Phyllis had only wished for death and completely ignored her extreme hunger. But when she looked at the plate of sunshine egg fried rice, she couldn't help but salivate, overwhelmed by a strong sense of hunger!

Seeing Phyllis staring fixedly at the sunshine egg fried rice in his hand, Mu Yunfan's lips curled into a confident smile. He placed the dish on the table and said with a smile, "Eat while it's hot."

By now, Phyllis was completely drawn to the plate of sunshine egg fried rice. Her legs moved involuntarily as she quickly walked to the table and sat down.

Looking closely at the sunshine egg fried rice, she was deeply captivated by its vibrant and alluring color, as well as its increasingly rich aroma.

The hunger grew stronger and stronger, and at this point, she had completely thrown away all other thoughts. All she wanted was to eat it quickly.

Phyllis eagerly picked up a spoon and scooped up a full spoonful of rice, putting it into her mouth.

The rich aroma spread in her mouth as Phyllis couldn't help but eat, feeling the soft and elastic texture of the rice. As she swallowed, a warm flow rushed through her body, washing over her.

In that moment, Phyllis felt as if she was lying naked on a field of golden wheat under the warm sunshine. Energetic wild chickens ran and chirped by the roadside, while her snow-white skin basked in the warm sunlight.

"Mmm~!"

Phyllis couldn't help but let out a comfortable moan.

She finished the entire mouthful and quickly spooned another large bite into her mouth, chewing with force.

Mu Yunfan watched Phyllis, a well-mannered daughter of a duke, eat the sunshine egg fried rice without any grace. He regretted not taking a bite first.

Clang.

The spoon hitting the bottom of the plate made a crisp sound, and the plate of egg fried rice was completely eaten.

Mu Yunfan saw Phyllis, motionless, staring blankly at the shiny bottom of the plate. He was about to ask with a smile, "Was it delicious?"

But then he saw Phyllis's eyes getting moist, and tears started to flow. Crystal tears slid down her face, her large teardrops falling onto the table. Mu Yunfan quickly approached her and asked, "Hey, are you okay?"

Phyllis's tears dripped on the table, and the warmth she had felt while eating the sunshine egg fried rice reminded her of her grandmother Ella's embrace, which was also warm.

It was something she hadn't experienced in a long, long time—a warmth that she missed dearly.

Since being framed, she had been living in despair, feeling abandoned by everyone as no one came to her rescue or offered her a helping hand. That's why she had no attachment to this world.

However, this plate of sunshine egg fried rice allowed her to feel the warmth she hadn't felt in a long time—Ella's warmth.

It was a comforting and gentle warmth, like the sunlight of winter, warming her heart.

Phyllis suddenly burst into tears, as if wanting to cry out all the grievances and sadness she had experienced. She turned around and threw herself into Mu Yunfan's arms, continuing to cry.

Mu Yunfan was taken aback but soon showed a gentle smile on his face, gently embracing her.

Cry, cry, let all your sadness out.

Images of Ella flashed through Phyllis's mind. Suddenly, scenes appeared in her mind of when Ella had defied her family's objections and sent her to the magic academy she had always dreamed of. She remembered standing in front of Ella with her schoolbag, promising, "Ella, I will study magic hard and become the most powerful magician!"Grandma Ella had a kind smile on her face. She squatted down, reached out and touched her own head, and said with a smile, "Grandma doesn't expect you to become a powerful magician. As long as you can live a happy life, Grandma will be satisfied."

At the next moment, Phyllis cried even harder.

Mu Yunfan continued to stand like this, letting Phyllis continue to cry in his embrace.

After some time, when Phyllis stopped crying, she had fallen asleep.

Mu Yunfan looked down at Phyllis with tear-stained sleeping face, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. He gently wiped away her tears with his hand.

After crying like this, she shouldn't do anything foolish again, right?

Mu Yunfan carried Phyllis onto the bed, covered her with a blanket, picked up the tray, turned off the crystal lamp, and walked out of the room, gently closing the door.

***

Late at night, Mu Yunfan had already returned to his own room to rest. He had been busy running in the forest all day, fighting and cooking. The divine cooking skill used for the sunny side up fried rice was very exhausting, so Mu Yunfan also felt tired. As soon as he lay down on the bed, he fell asleep.

In Phyllis's room, Phyllis woke up. She sat up, the moonlight spilled in through the window, making her seem like she was wrapped in silver silk, beautiful and dreamlike.

At this moment, Phyllis already guessed that Mu Yunfan was just trying to scare her with those "ways to die". He never thought about letting her commit suicide, he had always been doing everything he could to save her.

Phyllis remembered what had just happened, remembered herself crying in Mu Yunfan's embrace, and her face blushed uncontrollably. At that time, she just wanted to find someone to rely on, she didn't think too much about it. But now, thinking back, Phyllis couldn't help but want to hide under the bed.

To make such an embarrassing move, how should she face Mr. Mu Yunfan tomorrow morning?

Phyllis blushed on the bed for a while, feeling embarrassed. She was about to lie down and go back to sleep.

Suddenly, a feeling of emptiness and loneliness came over her.

Once a person who had been in coldness and despair for a long time felt warmth again, they would become attached to that warmth.

And now, the person who made Phyllis feel warm was the man in this house.

Phyllis blushed, hesitated for a while, and decided to do something she would never have done before. She got off the bed, pushed open the door, and looked at the several rooms around the living room.

Phyllis remembered that Mu Yunfan seemed to have said where his room was, but she didn't pay attention at that time, so she didn't know which one was Mu Yunfan's room.

Phyllis could only go to the leftmost room, push the door open, and it was full of clutter, a storage room. Then she walked to the next room, pushed it open, also full of clutter. Opening the next room, it was also full of clutter.

Three consecutive rooms were not Mu Yunfan's room, and Phyllis pouted unhappily.

Why are there so many things in Mr. Mu Yunfan's house?

Unwilling to give up, Phyllis pushed open the fourth room. Finally, she saw Mu Yunfan lying on the middle bed. Phyllis couldn't help but have a joyful expression on her face, her eyes shining. But immediately, her face turned red, as red as a red apple.

Is it really okay to do that? Isn't it impolite?

But, but, I really, really want to...

Phyllis tightly grasped her skirt, pursed her lips, and stood at the door hesitating for several minutes. In the end, her desire in her heart overruled her actions. She walked to the edge of Mu Yunfan's bed and climbed onto it.

Mu Yunfan, who was sleeping, felt movement beside him, and his arm seemed to be held by something.

Mu Yunfan opened his eyes and saw a fairy girl sleeping next to him! Mu Yunfan was startled, who else could it be other than Phyllis?

How did she end up in my bed!?

While Mu Yunfan was lost in thought, he saw Phyllis lying on her side, curling up like a little kitten, holding her arm, and a happy smile appeared on her pure white face, with tear stains left on her face.Watching this scene, Mu Yunfan felt a touch of tenderness deep in his heart.

Whatever, just let her be like this.

Mu Yunfan thought to himself and closed his eyes.
