After almost drowning, Wen Xiuan awakens to bullet comments, discovering that she is actually in a novel!
Her savior, it turns out, is a scheming "phoenix man" (a man who rises from p...
Huo Jue's originally depressed mood instantly perked up again at this moment: "Wen Zhiqing, what do you mean?"
He stared at Wen Xia Nuan with burning eyes. Wen Xia Nuan looked at him with a smile: "Don't you know what I mean?"
Her eyes fell on him. After spending some time together, Wen Xia Nuan could not hide her love and concern for him.
In the past, she really only wanted to make it up to him, but now Wen Xia Nuan doesn't want to do that anymore.
She wants to live her life according to her own wishes.
Huo Jue was still staring at her blankly. Wen Xia Nuan looked at his dazed look and couldn't help but stand on tiptoe and kiss him on the lips.
Shocked and then stunned by disbelief, Huo Jue covered his lips and looked at Wen Xia Nuan's figure who was about to leave. His face flushed but he found that he couldn't say a word.
Wen Xia Nuan also noticed the man's surprise and shyness.
She covered her lips and laughed involuntarily: "Huo Jue, are you stupid?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Jue finally set his gaze on Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, do you know what you are doing?"
His voice was even hoarser than before. Wen Xia Nuan stared at him thoughtfully: "Of course I know!"
She looked at Huo Jue seriously, the joy and shyness in her eyes were what a girl should naturally have.
Huo Jue's inaction made Wen Xia Nuan's smile fade slightly. She stared at him nervously, her voice tense: "You don't like me?"
"How come?"
Huo Jue shook his head, his eyes falling on Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, how could I not like you?"
Wen Xia Nuan's heart moved, and her eyes fell on Huo Jue: "So you like me?"
She tilted her head back, and Huo Jue's Adam's apple rolled up and down involuntarily many times. Finally, he moved his lips, but no words came out.
He did like her, but his status was as different from Wen Xia Nuan's as a chasm. What qualifications did he have to say he liked her now?
Wen Xia Nuan looked at Huo Jue. When the man's words didn't come out for a long time, Wen Xia Nuan couldn't help but feel a pang in her heart: "Huo Jue, what on earth do you mean by this!"
She felt wronged. Putting aside her girlish thoughts, Wen Xia Nuan didn't dare to think about what her confession meant to Huo Jue.
"Do you have any feelings for me?"
Wen Xia Nuan stared at Huo Jue intently. Huo Jue was silent for a long time before he finally spoke out his thoughts: "Wen Zhiqing, you should know how I feel about you. You also know my family. If I tell you that I like you in front of you now, I would be too despicable!"
The sincerity in his eyes made Wen Xia Nuan feel different.
She could more or less guess what Huo Jue was up to.
"Are you stupid?"
Huo Jue felt a warmth on his face, and he subconsciously tried to dodge, but Wen Xia Nuan used a little force and stopped him in his tracks.
She cupped his cheeks with her hands, and the man's distinct jawline told her clearly that he had a good appearance. It could even be said that there were few men in the entire village as handsome as him.
In the past, when Huo Jue went out to do farm work, he never noticed it himself, but Wen Xia Nuan knew that many women were secretly looking at him.
"Huo Jue, I don't need someone with an outstanding family background, do you understand?"
Huo Jue's eyes had already fallen on Wen Xia Nuan. Wen Xia Nuan met his gaze with a burning smile, "Whether you believe it or not..."
Before she could finish her words, Huo Jue's anxious voice rang out: "I believe it!"
He stared at Wen Xia Nuan with burning eyes: "Wen Zhiqing, I believe what you say."
Wen Xia Nuan's gaze fell on Huo Jue: "That's good."
Huo Jue held Wen Xia Nuan's hand tightly. He looked at her and said, "Wen Zhiqing, don't you regret it?"
Wen Xia Nuan was stunned, and her curious eyes fell on him: "What do you regret?"
She raised her eyebrows, her smiling eyes hiding concern: "Huo Jue, do you think I should regret this?"
Huo Jue did not choose to answer this time. He held Wen Xia Nuan's hand tightly, and the emotions in his eyes were about to overflow.
"I'll treat you well."
His hands never relaxed, and his eyes were full of seriousness as he looked at Wen Xia Nuan: "Wen Zhiqing, although I don't have many abilities now, I promise you that I will treat you well."
Wen Xia Nuan stared at Huo Jue with burning eyes, and nodded when she heard this: "Okay, I believe you."
He felt relieved, and seeing Wen Xia Nuan's belief in him, he curled his lips and said, "I feel relieved if you believe in me."
"Huo Jue, you should go and rest."
Wen Xia Nuan held his hand in hers, and seeing that Huo Jue was still running a low-grade fever, she said, "Uncle Lin said before that if you still have a fever, you have to take another dose of medicine."
Huo Jue nodded: "Thank you for your help."
Wen Xia Nuan waved her hand: "What's the trouble? You boiled water for my bath and washed dishes for me before, and you didn't say it was troublesome. I'm just making medicine for you, so you don't have to be polite."
She spoke with a smile, and Huo Jue felt relieved. When he looked at Wen Xia Nuan, his eyes became softer.
Inside the room, Huo Jue was lying on the bed looking at Wen Xia Nuan. Huo Jue saw Wen Xia Nuan busying around. He just opened his mouth to speak when he saw the door being pushed open and Huo Xiao walked in quickly.
"Wen Zhiqing, I have something to say to my eldest brother. Can you please step out for a moment?"
Huo Xiao's tense voice was heard. Wen Xia Nuan was feeding Huo Jue medicine without saying a word.
Huo Xiao frowned, looking at Wen Xia Nuan busying herself. He felt a little uncomfortable in his heart: "Wen Zhiqing, did you hear what I said?"
Wen Xia Nuan paused, her eyes fixed on Huo Xiao: "I'm feeding your brother medicine. If you want to say anything, just say it directly!"
She didn't even frown. Huo Xiao could tell Wen Xia Nuan was serious. He took a deep breath and curled his lips at Wen Xia Nuan, "Okay, Wen Zhiqing, since you don't want to leave, I'll say something serious. I hope you won't get angry."
Wen Xia Nuan didn't say anything. Huo Xiao's eyes fell on his brother: "I heard from grandma that you want to leave with Wen Xia Nuan?"
Huo Jue looked at Huo Xiao. He didn't say yes, nor did he say no. Huo Xiao felt very uncomfortable in his heart: "Brother, tell me yourself, what do you want to do?"
His blunt gaze fell on Huo Jue: "Don't you really want Grandma to stay with me? Would you rather leave with this woman?"
Huo Xiao's voice was so unpleasant that Huo Jue saw it and felt very uncomfortable in his heart: "Ah Xiao, you really have changed!"
