Her heart leapt with joy, Ran Xiangsi moved a little closer to Xing Chen, tugging at the cuff of his pure white shirt, "This morning, a strange old man came to our house. Then Uncle Wu said something, so I came here..."
The suffocating mood he had felt dissipated instantly with her slight move to tug at his sleeve.
Xing Chen pulled back his gaze, his expression softened a little.
Observing his expression, Ran Xiangsi knew this move was very effective, so she brazenly hugged his arm and shook it.
"Don’t be angry. If you keep being angry, you’ll turn into an old man, and then you won’t be handsome anymore!"
Her voice itself was very pleasant, soft and tender, and at this moment she was deliberately coaxing Xing Chen, making it even sweeter, causing a tingling sensation in the listener’s heart.
Who could resist the pleas of their beloved?
The last piece of ice in Xing Chen’s heart melted just like that.
He discarded the cigarette butt, suddenly turned around, and with a powerful arm braced against the car, effortlessly trapped Ran Xiangsi in his embrace.
His eyes, black as a deep pool, firmly locked onto Ran Xiangsi’s gaze, "Do you still like him?"
The implication was clear: was Xiangsi still fond of Feng Zilun?
After all, Feng Zilun met Ran Xiangsi first, and even if Xing Chen was jealous, there was a limit to his jealousy.
To Ran Xiangsi, this was already the second time Xing Chen asked her this question.
The last time he asked was in front of "Su Ya", and she didn’t answer then.
But this time... Ran Xiangsi felt that if she didn’t answer, this guy might really get mad.
She had managed to somewhat ease his anger...
They had signed an agreement and had to continue down this long path together.
Sighing, Ran Xiangsi decided to tell Xing Chen the truth.
"I used to like him a little, I guess. Four years ago, when I had just arrived in A City, and knew no one, he helped me a lot upon entering A University. I felt grateful to him. Later, when he got together with Ding Jia, you knew all about it. I have no feelings for him at all now. Besides, I have such a handsome husband who outshines him at every turn, don’t I?"
As she spoke, Ran Xiangsi couldn’t help but praise Xing Chen.
She laughed awkwardly, looking into his eyes.
And that word "husband" effortlessly pleased Xing Chen.
In truth, the so-called jealousy was just because he felt insignificant.
Now that he had regained his sense of significance, why should Xing Chen be angry anymore?
He curved his lips into a slight smile, dipped his head, and kissed her rosy lips.
"Mmm..." Ran Xiangsi’s eyes widened, her mind went blank in an instant.
She realized she had no intention of pushing him away. The moment he kissed her, her heartbeat, thumping quickly...
Almost instinctually, she reached out, like vines, wrapping around his neck.
She stroked his hair tips, delicately responding to his kisses.
In that moment, Ran Xiangsi suddenly felt that perhaps, this man, truly did have some feelings for her?
And she... New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on NovᴇlFire(.)nᴇt
Didn’t know when it started, but she had gotten used to his closeness, used to his kisses.
Seeing him angry and unhappy affected her mood as well; she always wanted to coax him and didn’t want to see him unhappy.
It seemed like their relationship had transcended the level of just being partners.
kiss now, it seemed to make everything different...
