Chapter 52 Confession

Oh.

Ji Yanxing's deep and handsome face calmed down, and a warning bell rang in his heart——

This is not right.

He was keenly aware that he cared to this extent just because Yu Nian had a crush on a man who had never even been with her and had no possibility of being with her again.

This is not a good sign.

Deep down, he hated the feeling of being out of control, with all his emotions being controlled by another person.

Some things are off track and should be brought back on track.

Necessary feelings can be cultivated. After all, you are going to live together for the rest of your life. It would be too boring if there is not even a little bit of feeling.

But just stop at the right time, as too much is as bad as too little.

In the living room.

Yu Nian was still thinking about the wording. This was her biggest secret, and she had never told anyone except a few friends from college.

Even Chen Xi didn't know.

She has never confessed to anyone, so does saying these count as a confession?

I felt a little excited and nervous inside, and I imagined his reaction when he found out about this.

Will you be happy?

Or do you still feel it doesn’t matter?

Would she be under his control from now on?

Yu Nian didn't like the feeling of having his thoughts controlled by someone else, but if that person was Ji Yanxing, it didn't seem so bad.

Her head hurt from thinking so much that she looked out the window. The sea was endless and the prosperity and luxury of the harbor were on display, forming an extreme contrast with the quiet interior.

With a "click", the bathroom door opened.

Yu Nian's heart was lifted. She took a deep breath and saw Ji Yanxing drying his hair with a towel. She said softly, "Let me help you blow dry your hair first."

These days, he blow-dryed her hair, and in return, she would blow-dry his hair as well.

Ji Yanxing looked at her with a cold temperament, a little more distant and indifferent than usual, and said in a cold voice: "No, what do you want to talk about?"

She could hear the coldness in his words. She slowed down, suppressed the complicated bitterness in her heart, clenched her fingers, looked up at his dark eyes, and said, "The person I just mentioned who I have a crush on..."

"You don't have to explain to me," Ji Yanxing interrupted her.

Yu Nian was stunned, his throat felt sore and dry, and he stared at him without blinking.

Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes, his tone was very calm, but his words were extremely cold: "Although we are husband and wife, we are also two independent individuals. As for who you liked before and whether you still like them now, you don't need to explain to me."

In other words, he wasn't interested in who she had a crush on.

Yu Nian's eyelashes trembled twice, and the nails hanging at her sides dug deeply into her palms. The pain made her remain calm, but it was only on the surface. Her mind was still in a mess, it must be too messy, so she asked such a question.

That wasn't the question she should be asking.

She didn't expect she would say it.

But she said it anyway.

"Then do you know that Meng Ziyun likes you?"

Ji Yanxing paused and looked at her calmly: "I know."

"You knew she liked you, but you were still friends with her, right?"

And they are close friends.

Ji Yanxing stared at her: "So what?"

The tense nerve in Yu Nian's mind finally broke completely, "So you think it's normal for you to be friends with someone of the opposite sex who likes you?"

Ji Yanxing pulled his lip, "Is it hard to understand? There are many people who like me. Should I fire the company's employees who like me? It's her business that she likes me. The relationship between her and me does not exceed the normal limit, just like the person you hide in your heart. As long as you——"

When he said this, his Adam's apple tightened and his brows furrowed.

What is he going to say? As long as you hide it, I don't care?

"As long as you don't do anything out of line, I won't interfere."

Yu Nian didn't notice his brief pause, his mind was full of his words, and the tangled logic was gradually sorted out.

Even she could see that Meng Ziyun was in love with her openly. A smart man like him would definitely see it.

But he still chooses to be friends with a woman who likes him.

Clear away obstacles for her in her career.

Yu Nian really wanted to ask him, if that was the case, why didn’t he marry Meng Ziyun?

She likes him.

He is very nice to her.

He doesn't have anyone he likes anyway.

But she couldn't blame him, because he only treated Meng Ziyun as a friend. Just like just now in the box, he was protecting her and did not do anything to betray this marriage.

He was not interested in her affairs and gave her enough space. Similarly, she could not interfere in his affairs.

During this period, he treated her too well, which made her lose her mind and think too highly of herself.

Maybe for her, a shallow relationship is enough.

Her excessive possessiveness should not exist in this marriage.

She had no right to interfere with his friendships.

Even if that person likes him.

Yu Nian looked at him, and his scattered eyes gradually focused.

She moved her lips with difficulty, her voice bitter and unpleasant: "Sorry, I was childish."

Ji Yanxing's pupils contracted violently.

"I understand what you mean." Yu Nian closed his eyes and pulled the corners of his mouth silently, "I'm going to take a shower."

After taking a shower, Yu Nian came out of the bathroom.

Ji Yanxing was not in the bedroom. She glanced at the balcony and saw him smoking there.

The man put his hands on the railing, and the silver moonlight fell on him from top to bottom, as if casting a layer of cold light on his whole body, making him look cold and indifferent.

Behind him was a bustling and luxurious seaport. Bluish-white smoke enveloped his face, making his cold white skin even more blurred.

Lonely and indifferent.

Maybe he is just this kind of person. People in high positions are always indifferent.

Yu Nian has always believed that not everyone has the ability to love. Even she herself is not the kind of person who loves easily. She always weighs the pros and cons when doing things. She cannot devote herself physically and mentally, so how can she force him to do so?

Calm down and think carefully about what he said. There was nothing wrong with it. Meng Ziyun was his friend and perhaps they had some kind of friendship. If they broke off their friendship because of her unhappiness, it would be too much to ask.

He didn't like Meng Ziyun and didn't do anything intimate with her. Yu Nian believed that this was the truth. He was such a proud man, there was really no need for him to lie to her about such a thing.

Intellectually speaking, there was nothing wrong with him doing this, and he was sincere in developing feelings for her before, so there was no need for her to dwell on it, as that would only make herself tired.

After figuring it out, Yu Nian took a deep breath, threw the towel on the chair, touched his wet hair, and went to find a hair dryer.

The moment she touched the hair dryer, her eyes were a little dazed. Several frames of him blowing her hair flashed before her eyes. Her eyelashes trembled, and she turned on the hair dryer.

Her hair is very thick, and blow-drying it is a big job every time. Yu Nian doesn't have the patience to blow-dry it for too long, so she turns off the hair dryer when it is 60% dry and lets it dry naturally.
