Chapter 514: A Man With Serious Feelings
Especially for Xia Jinyuan, a man who treated his feelings with honesty and loyalty, it was not easy to encounter a girl who would make his heart palpitate. Grooming patiently, waiting, waiting until she blooms, waiting for the results, until…… he starts harvesting, he did not wish to let go of a single step of the process.
The sexy smile was like red wine inside a crystal glass in the night, drunk before even tasting it. “There’s no need to walk past me; I will pull you along. I will release my hand when we arrive. Watching you walk passed me or perhaps walking shoulder to shoulder together, how is it?”
A single sentence with dual meaning caused Ye Jian to stop struggling. Was the implicit meaning what she thought it was? Or perhaps it was him teasing inadvertently once more?
No, it did not seem so.
His gentle voice, as well as his attitude of absolutely not letting go, had indicated his intent.
That sincere intent had caused her heart to shudder. Even if she wants to ignore it, how could she easily ignore her palpitating heart?
No longer struggling, she allowed him to drag her towards the darker regions, a place without any source of light.
Ye Jian no longer spoke. Even if she carried on talking, she did not know how to handle such matters, which she had never experienced before.
”Don’t rush to answer. It’s good to maintain silence,” Her well-behaved silence had caused the flames in Xia Jinyuan’s eyes to dim. Every time they met, he would use his full arsenal. Time after time, he would use words to hint; it was for the sake of her gradually accepting it as she grew up.
To unconditionally accept it and not escape.
There was no need to be eager for success towards the little fox, who had rejection towards adult men. Other than taking it a step at a time, there were no other options.
Ye Jian was already puckering her lips. His earlier words with dual meaning were exactly as what she thought; he indeed had some thoughts about her.
”Captain Xia, there’s no need for you to be so anxious to send out the message so soon. I’ll still stick to the same words; it’s a long road ahead.” She rejected him from the beginning to prevent awkwardness when meeting in the future. Ye Jian, who was dragged along as they jogged, used a resolute tone to express her attitude. “That’s why I would not place it at heart, nor would I place much thought into it.”
”In my world, I only wish to climb higher and further. Not settle down in one place or pass my days as a fish on the cutting board.”
With a firm attitude, she had never thought about dating early. Xia Jinyuan was not discouraged. It was her attitude that caused him to proceed step by step slowly. The corner of his mouth curled up, he smiled and said: “Of course, you’re still so young. Think less of such messy matters; think more about studying and enrolling in the military academy.”
It was his words with a double meaning that caused her to overthink. Right now, it had become her overthinking it!
While Ye Jian was feeling gloomy, she was feeling even more helpless. “Captain Xia, you’re purposely teasing me.”
”I’m not teasing you. It’s because you’re too young that I can’t be startling you,” Xia Jinyuan laughed. His pure laughter was filled with banter, “I’m not kidding. Words cannot be retracted once it’s said. It all depends on you.”
Ye Jian was thinking in her heart that she would be more distressed if this carried on! A single sentence had perturbed her state of mind. She was afraid he would get mad due to her attitude, and yet she did not wish to lie or act all confused!
The more she spoke, the more mistakes she would make. It was better to talk less…… or just shut up!
Her silence caused Xia Jinyuan’s heart to soften. No matter what he said to the little fox, she would never question him. He loved such obedience and cuteness.
