Xia Jinyuan laughed when she apologized so quickly. After cleaning her wound, he put aside the tweezers and raised his eyebrows. There was a smile on his dashing face, which softened Ye Jian’s heart. His smile was warm, and his gaze was like a mild current, which could envelop her cold appearance.
There was a trace of bitterness in the corner of her eyes. As she felt his warmth, there was a complicated emotion in her head that she was unclear about. She couldn’t help but reach out her hand, softly touching his elegant eyebrows. She said in a trance, “Xia Jinyuan, if one day you regret it, what should you do?”
If one day, he found out that the person standing in front of him had a secret of living her second life, who came back for revenge but accidentally entered another world that opened up her heart.
She changed her life of misery, weakness, and sorrow. If it wasn’t for her past life, would Xia Jinyuan have known Ye Jian now?
She didn’t like to lie and wasn’t used to lying. Having a secret allowed her to live recklessly, but it was also her shackle, which made her refuse to have another person in her world.
But it was undeniable that the person in front of her cared about her, thought about her, and could hold her hand and walk together with her. He had something magical that could ease her mind. No matter how heavy the wind and rain were outside, with him around, she had somewhere safe to be.
However, before she was ready, she couldn’t accept the security that he gave.
Xia Jinyuan saw her in a trance and heard what she said. Although he could feel her hesitation, there was still no way to understand why her heart hesitated.
He curled his lips and smiled at her, “I don’t have that much foresight when dealing with feelings. What I like must be what I’m willing to love wholeheartedly. As for lies, Little Fox, don’t forget that I’m an excellent hunter. My eyes are much better than Commander Xia’s.”
“I can read people. So even if you’re young and underaged, I have to do something.”
His hand movements didn’t stop. He was very accustomed and skilled in doing these things. After a while, the new gauze was already gently wrapped with the bandage.
Ye Jian heard that and narrowed her eyes slightly, “Sometimes, it’s not enough to look at the surface. The appearance might not be true! Captain Xia, we still have time. While I’m considering it, you should too.”
Xia Jinyuan stood up, preparing to clear the old gauze away, “I know what I want. You have to think about it.”
Inadvertently, his gaze fell on Ye Jian’s chest. Although her hand was holding on to the bathrobe, because of the trance just now, her hand slipped down. And because she was looking up at him, the curvature of her chest was more prominent. Xia Jinyuan was able to see the most exquisite scenery.
Such a scene came suddenly, and he was flustered. He reached out his hand and pulled the bathrobe up and sighed, “You are testing my endurance. Fortunately, I can still maintain my senses because of your age. When you’re eighteen, you can’t test my endurance again.”
