Seeing his older brother lead him away at the police station, jealousy would uncontrollably surge in his heart; at the KTV, witnessing his adorable look with drunken, misty eyes, he couldn’t help but want to kiss him; when someone tried to hurt him, he wanted to protect him; he felt especially happy when he heard they were going to act in a movie together, and doing gaming or team events with him filled him with joy and boosted his spirits; when he wasn’t on set, he constantly wondered where he was, what he was doing, when he would return...
At first, he could perfectly conceal his emotions, but now it seemed to be increasingly exposed.
That day when he said he wanted to ask him a private question, he thought he would, as before, ask if he liked him, if he could be with him. The moment he asked, a crazy answer was already in his mind.
He liked him, he could, he didn’t even mind that he was a man.
The door to the private room was pushed open, and Ye Xian walked in, taking off his mask, sunglasses, and hat, revealing a smiling face, "Captain, you came so early?"
Jiang Wanze got up and pulled a chair out for her, spreading a tablecloth.
Seeing his attentive actions, Ye Xian felt uneasy inside, hoping he didn’t have some big favor to ask of her.
"What would you like to eat? I’ll order for you."
"Just order a few dishes casually," said Ye Xian, looking at his serious face curiously, "Captain, you invited me here, you have something to tell me, right?"
The hand that Jiang Wanze held the menu with froze. Had he seen through him?
"Then get straight to the point."
She looked completely relaxed and didn’t seem to have sensed his thoughts.
Jiang Wanze slowly put down the menu, "Ye Xian, about the incident at Jintai Hotel, I haven’t apologized to you."
Ye Xian didn’t expect him to suddenly bring up such an old matter, especially something that was so embarrassing for her.
"No, no, I should be the one to apologize to you for that!"
Such an embarrassing incident, she had intended to pretend to have forgotten and muddle through, so why was he suddenly bringing it up after all this time?
Jiang Wanze: "My approach was also wrong, I shouldn’t have cursed at you."
"Ah..." The sudden discussion of this topic was truly embarrassing, and Ye Xian scratched her head, not knowing what to say, "Is that what you wanted to talk about?"
"No, I want to ask if you have forgiven me."
"I forgive! Of course, I forgive you, compared to what I did, the few words you said were nothing."
"Then why have you been avoiding me ever since then?"
Jiang Wanze looked at her seriously.
Ye Xian: "..." Oh no, he had found out.
"Because... your words back then woke me up."
What had he said at that time? Something like he would never like him in this lifetime?
Jiang Wanze quickly said, "I regret it."
Ye Xian: "Regret what?"
"Regret... scolding you. Can you forget all those words? Don’t avoid me anymore."
Ye Xian agreed readily. She had long forgotten the words he had scolded her with, although they probably contained insults like shameless, and ’toad lusting after a swan’s flesh’ and the like.
"Hello, your beverage."
The waiter suddenly came in to deliver the drinks, and Ye Xian reached out to take it; Jiang Wanze just happened to see the jasmine flower diamond bracelet on her wrist, a designer piece, somewhat familiar.
It looked like he had seen an identical design sketch on his brother’s desk.
