Chapter 888: You, Change Your Clothes
“Yesterday, my mom said that she wanted to invite you over for lunch today but I’m afraid she will have to break her promise. My cousin just came back. We will be having a family gathering in the afternoon.”
Ye Jian would have forgotten about this if he didn’t mention it. She said hurriedly, “There’s no need for that. Your mom is being too polite. It will be hard to find me on the weekends. Please help me to thank your mom.”
“We all know that we won’t be able to find you on the weekends. I’m going to have breakfast. See you on Monday.”
“See you on Monday.” Yang Heng didn’t suspect anything because of Ye Jian’s calm expression. He turned to leave and Ye Jian closed the door. Then, she leaned against the door and heaved a huge sigh of relief. She was so nervous her hands felt sweaty.
Xia Jinyuan saw her nervous expression. He couldn’t control the smile on his face as he said in a low voice, “Don’t worry, even if your schoolmates come in, I will…”
Before he could tell Ye Jian that he would hide properly, someone knocked on the door again. Xia Jinyuan quickly kept his smile and walked quickly towards Ye Jian. He dashed into the washroom.
The voices of two senior sisters came from behind the door. “Junior Sister Ye Jian, have you finished packing up? We just met Yang Heng and he said that you wanted to go back to school. We can go back together.”
It was true that you mustn’t feel guilty. The moment you feel guilty, what you’re afraid of will happen!
Ye Jian opened the door again and explained that she wasn’t going back to school. Finally, she sent away the two enthusiastic senior sisters.
“This place is very unsafe. We need to leave immediately.” Xia Jinyuan came out and tried his best to control his smile. He looked at Ye Jian seriously. “I’m worried that you might cry due to nervousness.”
Her face was as red as an apple and she seemed extremely tensed up as though something might happen again. Somehow, she seemed cute.
Ye Jian could tell that he was forcing back a smile. She glared at him and opened the wardrobe. She took out his military uniform. “This place is very safe. You’re the one that’s making me nervous because you’re wearing a bathrobe. I’m still a student. If they saw a man in a bathrobe in my room, I won’t have the face to go back to school anymore.”
By right, it was nothing. However, if someone saw him, nothing would become something!
“After you wear your clothes, I don’t mind opening the door directly!” She took out the military attire and the shirt. When she looked up, she saw Xia Jinyuan staring at her intently with a pitiful gaze. Her hands stopped in mid-air. She unconsciously took a step back. “…Why are you looking at me? Hurry up and wear your clothes.”
Her voice was stable but it was a little soft. Her heart trembled a little when she saw the current Xia Jinyuan.
He just woke up from his sleep so tiredness could still be seen on his handsome face. His eyes were deep and extremely dark. He was like a leopard that had its claws out and she was the prey that he laid his eyes on.
“…You, change your clothes. We’ll leave after you change your clothes.”
Her breathing was a little tense. Xia Jinyuan could sense her nervousness. He walked over and took the clean and fragrant military attire. His gaze was fixed on her face. “You went to the airport immediately after I fell asleep?”
“Yes. Didn’t you say that you don’t have any clothes? That’s why I thought of taking your military attire back.” His expression was calm. She couldn’t understand what made his expression so dark a moment ago. Ye Jian felt that she didn’t provoke his sensitive spots either. Everything went naturally.
