When they were done eating, Jingyan Ye went to pay the bill then he carried those bags and left with
Yiyao Duan. He knew she was still in shock, or she wouldn’t have agreed to let him pay the bill.
One street, two streets, three streets...
He followed her for five streets and she finally stopped. She turned around and looked at him in doubt,
“I don’t get it. Why do you like me again?”
Jingyan almost broke down. She had been walking for such a long distance just to think about this?
“I lobe your pureness. You are a very excellent person. If I have to say what I like about you, I’ll have to
tell you, everything!”
Finally Yiyao smiled. She teased him, “Jingyan, you are a sweet talker. You must have had a lot of
girlfriends, huh?”
“Not at all! I’ve been waiting for you!” Jingyan gazed at her and there’s sincerity in his eyes.
“Really?”
“I swear to God!”
Yiyao held his fingers and said, “No need. I believe you,” she paused then she said, “You have to know,
that if we are together, there won’t be a lot of chances to live together.”
“I know.”
“You have to know, that I might face all kinds of dangers all the time and thus leave you alone in this
world. And you won’t be able to know where I am.”
Jingyan’s heart trembled but till said firmly, “I know.”
“You have to know, that I am no good person. If you betray me one day, I will make you suffer and
when I do, you will beg me to kill you.”
Jingran smiled, “I know.”
“Why are you smiling? I mean it.” Yiyao was annoyed.
“I know.”
Yiyao really wanted to kick his ass, “I know, I know, that’s all you can say?”
Jingyan really want to wrap his arms around her and hug her tight. But before that, he had something
to say.
“Yiyao, before hearing you say “yes”, I have something to confess to you. Then you can decide if you’ll
accept.” Jingyan was quite serious.
“What is it?”
“Come with me.”
Jingyan walked toward a hotel nearby. Yiyao grabbed him hurriedly and asked, “What are you doing?”
“I need a quiet place. It’s to noisy here.”
Yiyao was confused. In the hotel room? Is there something wrong about his body?
“Two rooms, next to each other.”
Then they came to one room and put the things in there. He said seriously, “I am going to tell you my
secret. It’s also the secret of my family. Only the closest person in this world can know this.”
“What on earth is it? So mysterious!”
Jingyan remained unmoved for a while, then he raised his hands and six nags were all floating in the
air...
Yiyao opened her mouth wide in disbelief. How could the bags...fly in the air, and turn circles?
Then in the blink of an eye, Jingyan disappeared. Yiyao even touched the place where he was standing
but found nothing.
“Jingyan?”
A few seconds later, a voice arose from her back, “I am here.”
Yiyao turned around and saw Jingyan floating in the air too. Then he was slowly flying toward her...
Yiyao felt it so unreal, like something she had long believed in got crushed. What’s going on?
“You...what are you?” Yiyao asked in surprise. She had seen quite a few strange things before, but it
was the first time that she had seen such a supernatural thing.
Jingyan had already expected her reactions. He explained calmly, “I am nothing different from you
except I have some supernatural abilities. I bleed when I get hurt, and I die when I get shot. That’s it.”
Yiyao reached out her handed and pinched his arm lightly. He felt so real but why she felt she was
dreaming.
“Oh my goodness. This world is so crazy!” She stepped backwards and sat on the bed. She fixed her
eyes closely on Jingyan and said, “Don’t talk. It’s so ridiculous. Leave me alone please.”
Jingyan kept silent for a while then he said, “Take your time. I’ll leave you alone.”
“Where are you going?” Yiyao asked hurriedly.
Jingyan pointed to the room next door and said, “I’ll be in the next room. Tell me when you want to
talk.”
“Oh, okay.” Yiyao nodded.
Jingyan walked out of the room through the door. He could have walked through the wall directly but he
thought it’s better not to, for the sake of safety, because there were cameras everywhere in the
corridor.
Hearing the door was closed, Yiyao threw herself on the big bed.
Oh mine! There are really supernatural creatures in the world, and she knows one! How awesome!
Thinking of here, Yiyao rolled her body and rested her head on her arm and she couldn’t help kicking
her legs in the air.
After being thrilled, she felt relieved. Lucky that such a superman has a kind heart. If he wants to do
bad things, it will be a disaster!
No, she couldn’t make Jingyan her enemy. So she decided to accept him. She’s afraid he would go
extremes if she should turn him down. She would feel guilty about that. And besides, she really likes
him.
In the other room, Jingyan was too nervous to even sit down. He had no idea what decision Yiyao
would make, but he trust her that’s why he told her about his secrets.
Time passed by slowly, as slowly as a snail crawls. Jingyan kept checking the time but it was only five
minutes that had passed...
He turned on the TV and chose the NEWS channel, trying to kill time in this way. But he found it
useless. He couldn’t concentrate at all. All he could see and think of was her beautiful face. He was
about to go nuts and he even started to think about the life together when Yiyao should accept him.
What if she says no? Jingyan was upset at first, then he decided firmly that as long as she’s single, he
would chase her down to the end of the world.
Hmm, so be it.
She belongs to me, and nothing can change that.
Another five minutes had passed and neither his phone or the door bell rang.
Does it have to take such a long time? Jingyan panicked. To be honest, he’s quite confident that Yiyao
would say yes. But the longer she took, the smaller chance there would be.
He attached himself to the wall trying to hear what’s going on in the next room but there was utter
silence. Jingyan then went back to sit in front of the TV with disappointment and anxiety and stared his
eyes wide open at the screen.
One minute after another...
They say days are like years, but to Jingyan, minutes were like years.
Half another had passed, but Yiyao had not replied to him. He was suspecting there might be
something wrong with his phone. Or maybe she had fallen asleep.
Should I go to check? He thought to himself.
Maybe I shouldn’t. she said she wanted to calm herself down first. It’s a big deal after all, to both of us.
It’s a matter of our whole life’s happiness.
Maybe I should wait for another ten minutes. I can ask her then.
He calmed himself down and another ten minutes passed. He couldn’t wait any longer. Out of respect,
he went through the door and knocked her door.
Bang bang bang...
Nobody came to open the door. She’s asleep?
Bang bang bang... he knocked harder, still no one.
He frowned and dialed her number, only to be told that her phone was powered off.
Out of battery? He was puzzled.
Then he went back to his own room.
Thinking that his beloved girl was right next door, he finally decided to go through the wall at the risk of
being scolded by her.
But what he saw surprised him.
It was empty. No one was there, except the clothes they bought in the morning.
“Yiyao?” Jingyan called her name cautiously but got no response.
With an empty mind, he went to the bathroom, but there was no one; then he came to the bed and
checked the bags, but found the new clothes were there except her uniform and her boots.
He felt as if his soul had been extracted out of his body. His eyes were full of emptiness and he sat on
the floor. He couldn’t accept the fact that she had already left.
She left without saying a word. She had completely turned me down!
Was she afraid? That’s why she escaped?
Thinking of this, he felt a great heartache and he couldn’t even breathe.
Am I wrong about her?
