Chapter 628: Chapter 625 Husband and Wife (3)
Bo Yan didn’t understand why and thought she might have a problem, so he turned his head to kiss her, “What’s wrong, Siyu?”
Xia Siyu also turned her head, looking directly into Bo Yan’s eyes.
Although there wasn’t much light in the Northwest, she could still make out Bo Yan’s profile. The closer she got, the more handsome she found him to be.
Bo Yan was of course very handsome, but up close, he appeared even more so. Moreover, from this angle—unlike those of teammates, fans, or photographers—no one could see the affectionate look on his face. His eyes were originally like peach blossoms, but at this moment, they were almost overflowing with Peach Blossom Pool, thousands of feet deep, as if one glance would drown her in them.
His peach blossom eyes were the very symbol of flirtation, yet his gaze at her at this moment was so passionate. It was as if in the depths of his eyes, in the bottom of his heart, there was only room for her.
“No, nothing,” she hurriedly lowered her head, unable to bear the sight of his eyes. It felt like one more glance would suck her in.
The more she avoided him, the more curious Bo Yan became. He stretched out his finger to lift her chin, forcing her to face him. Xia Siyu tried to look away, but he simply leaned in and covered her lips with his in a gentle motion, seemingly filled with endless affection.
But it was precisely this affection that Xia Siyu feared. She was used to living freely and had only felt attraction in a romantic sense towards Bo Yan. Back then, her feelings for Bo Yan were driven by his good looks—it was liking, but it hadn’t reached the point of pledging eternal love.
She always loved herself the most, of course, unless her mother was around, then it was her mother she loved most. But it was undeniable that her only romance had been with Bo Yan, and it had ended in a dismal failure. Although she withdrew quickly, it left shadows in her heart, and she couldn’t allow herself to fall easily ever again.
But why did she feel that—right here, right now—she was falling for Bo Yan again?
“Wife, wife,” Bo Yan too sensed a change in her mood, but after all, he wasn’t a worm in Xia Siyu’s belly, and couldn’t possibly guess what she was thinking exactly. He loved Xia Siyu; as a friend, as a comrade, as a lover, and also as a spouse. If she wasn’t happy, he wanted to be even more tender, to make her happy.
But the more tender he became, the more fearful Xia Siyu grew.
She was afraid that she really had started to like Bo Yan again, for a second time.
But how could it be Bo Yan? She had always believed it was not good to retread old ground, even though she was now married to Bo Yan, it was just suitability; it did not involve love, and she could control her own heart.
She was human, consumed the five grains like everyone else, and could fall ill, and of course, she could fall in love with someone. She just hadn’t anticipated that this person would still be Bo Yan, again Bo Yan.
However, thinking about it, she was good-looking and had high standards for herself. If she truly fell for someone, it definitely wouldn’t be an unattractive man. Boys have to be handsome; besides a face, they need height, physique, fashion sense, social skills, and eloquence.
It seems she had no real demands, yet in reality, she wanted someone handsome, who could dress up, and came from a somewhat wealthy background. Moreover, when getting along, he couldn’t be petty-minded, but needed to be insightful.
So all this roundabout pondering turns out to land on Bo Yan as the only one who fits the bill, right?
She wouldn’t be interested in anyone less appealing than Bo Yan. And someone better than Bo Yan, she hadn’t met yet. She initially disliked Bo Yan because of the dark shadows of the past. Now that the shadows are dispersed, it’s only normal that she likes him again.
