Capítulo 917: Chapter 917: Are You Still Not Going to Come Clean?
Leng Yan listened with a hint of helplessness; everything he did for her was actually misunderstood by her.
She always pretended to be mature in front of him, tried to act like a leader, but her mind was ultimately not as mature as his.
If he told her his feelings now, she certainly wouldn’t understand. Even if he explained clearly, she wouldn’t take it to heart.
She would definitely think he has a childish nature and doesn’t understand what liking someone means.
But in fact, the one who doesn’t understand what liking someone means is her.
“Xia Nuo, am I not good to you? Aren’t you also good to me? You treat me sincerely, and I treat you sincerely too. Rest assured, I haven’t forced myself to be good to you; if I didn’t want to be good to someone, even if he gave me a great favor, I would find a way to repay him rather than treat him well.” Leng Yan smiled faintly.
Xia Nuo felt very pleased, even a bit startled by his words. This boy was truly worth treating as a younger brother.
With Leng Yan’s words, Xia Nuo was completely at ease, no longer worried that he’d have any guilty thoughts.
She continued to casually boss him around, and they got along extremely well.
After half a year passed, Xia Nuo was already accustomed to Leng Yan’s presence.
After school this day, Leng Yan didn’t come to find her to go home together immediately.
She thought perhaps he was delayed by something, so she slowly packed her bag, not in a hurry to leave.
Little Yuanyuan naturally walked with her, and as they left the classroom and waited at the door for a while, Leng Yan still hadn’t appeared.
Little Yuanyuan asked in confusion, “Leng Yan’s late today, why hasn’t he come yet?”
“He should be here soon, let’s go wait for him up ahead.”
The two went to Leng Yan’s usual route and waited for over ten minutes before seeing him strolling slowly over.
“Why are you so late?” Xia Nuo asked him.
“The teacher just finished class. Let’s go.” He stretched out his hand, and she naturally gave him her heavy school bag.
Leng Yan walked behind them carrying two school bags, and after they parted with Little Yuanyuan at the school gate, Xia Nuo looked at him and found he was bowing his head, seemingly lost in thought.
“Leng Yan, what’s up with you?”
“Xia Nuo, I want to learn Taekwondo this weekend.”
“Ah, why the sudden interest in that? But it’s okay, learning it won’t hurt.”
“Yes, I’m going to sign up this week.” Official source ıs 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✶𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✶𝕟𝕖𝕥
On the bus, since it was rush hour, the bus was crowded. Leng Yan shielded her from the pushing crowd.
But there were too many people, and he was squeezed a few times, involuntarily gasping with pain and furrowing his brow.
Xia Nuo saw his expression but kept her face emotionless, pretending she didn’t notice, yet she was secretly observing his reactions the whole way.
Back home, he said he wanted to go back and take a shower, but Xia Nuo wouldn’t let him, pulling him into her house.
She placed the bags on the sofa and had him sit down, standing over him with a domineering look.
“What’s going on?” Leng Yan asked in confusion.
“Hurry up and confess.”
“Confess what?” Leng Yan continued to play dumb.
Xia Nuo crossed her arms, gave a cold snort, “One more chance. If you don’t speak, I’ll take action.”
Leng Yan always listened to her; what she said goes. But today’s situation was different, he didn’t want her to know.
He stood up, and Xia Nuo noticed he was a few centimeters taller than she was.
This guy is growing way too fast!
“I don’t know what you’re talking about. I’ll go back, and come over later.” He reached for the bag, but his chest was suddenly pushed forcefully.
