Jiang Can suddenly pulled her small hand back, her two beautiful big eyes staring at him, looking charming and adorable.
Huo Zhixing was taken aback.
At this moment, Jiang Can finally couldn't help but laugh.
She gently stroked the pigeon egg-shaped ring on her hand, rested her head on his shoulder, and said softly, "I don't like this ring. I still prefer the emerald."
"Hmm?" Huo Zhixing smiled. "Whatever, it's all yours anyway! You can arrange it!"
In any case, he had already given her all his wealth when they first met.
“But Can Can, that’s an old relic,” he said.
“Only antiques have value!” Jiang Can smiled sweetly. “Wasn’t that something your ancestor wore when he was a concubine?”
Huo Zhixing pinched her little nose and said, "You're not a royal concubine."
Jiang Can smiled but didn't say anything.
The man wrapped his arms around her waist, his strong arms encircling her completely.
A deep, magnetic voice whispered seductively in her ear, each word carrying a captivating allure: "You are not the Imperial Concubine..."
"You are my queen!"
Jiang Can's heart skipped a beat, and two blushes appeared on her cheeks.
Huo Zhixing finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel, and when her little hand wrapped around his neck, he felt nothing but boundless satisfaction.
"So Cheng Xuerou wasn't your first love?" Jiang Can asked him softly, her voice like that of a kitten.
Huo Zhixing was stunned for a moment.
So that's why she kept a long face all night?
But what does all this mean?! How could she be so sure that Cheng Xuerou was his first love?!
"Can Can," he said, composing himself, "who told you this?"
Jiang Can pursed her lips, smiling without saying a word.
Now she knew that Lin Yuqing, that careless girl, must have misheard her!
"Can Can, I didn't think I needed to tell you this," Huo Zhixing said softly, "but after such a big misunderstanding tonight, I have to explain it to you."
It was still early, so Jiang Can adjusted herself into a comfortable position and leaned against him, listening quietly to the story.
"Cheng Xuerou is the person Ye Chen has had a crush on since middle school," he said truthfully. "Actually, I had long forgotten about it. If Lao Bai hadn't reminded me, I really wouldn't have remembered."
"She's quite a prominent figure at your school, isn't she?" Jiang Can asked.
Huo Zhixing stammered and gave an awkward smile, "Old Bai and the others all say she's the school beauty."
What about you? Do you think so too?
"Of course not!" Huo Zhixing uttered these three words firmly, a layer of cold sweat already breaking out on his back.
Jiang Can covered her mouth and chuckled, "Okay, go on."
"..." Huo Zhixing forgot what to say next. After calming down, he slowly said, "I didn't expect Ye Chen to still like her, and I didn't expect... Tang Yilan likes Ye Chen."
"What?" Jiang Can was taken aback.
No wonder Tang Yilan had that expression when she mentioned Cheng Xuerou; it turns out there was a love triangle involved.
“But Attorney Ye doesn’t seem to know Yi Lan’s feelings!” Jiang Can thought for a moment and said, “Tonight, his heart is completely devoted to Cheng Xue Rou.”
“That’s what makes him so foolish,” Huo Zhixing said in a low voice. “He knows it’s impossible, he clearly sees that woman’s character, but he just won’t give up.”
Jiang Can sighed softly.
How many people can remain calm when they fall in love? And the more rational and calm a person is usually, the more crazy they become when they are in love.
"What are you thinking about?" Huo Zhixing kissed her hair.
A delicate, sweet fragrance wafted over, captivating him.
Jiang Can chuckled, her big eyes sparkling with playful light. "I was wondering, who was your first love?"
"It's you." Huo Zhixing answered without hesitation or thought.
He didn't care whether it was a life-or-death question or not, because there was no need to even think about it.
Even if she felt it was hypocritical, even if she thought he was just trying to comfort her, he still had to answer like that.
Because she is the white moonlight, she is the cinnabar mole, she is the one who amazed the world, and she is the one who softened the years.
Huo Zhixing kissed the back of her hand, and the moment his lips touched her skin, Jiang Can suddenly felt that same blushing and heart-pounding feeling she had when they first met.
Thinking about it carefully, she probably already liked him when she first met him on that stormy day.
She would always remember that cool and handsome man that night, the man who voluntarily slipped away while she was taking a shower, the man who didn't force her because she wasn't ready.
That man with abs like small bricks, strong and powerful.
The man who gave her an unforgettable first time...
Jiang Can's cheeks flushed, and she looked at Huo Zhixing with a bright smile, her small hand stroking his angular face, his handsome brow bone, and his well-defined lips.
She suddenly felt quite grateful to Jiang Mingyuan. If it weren't for his interference, making her marry in his place, wouldn't Jiang Yao be the one with Huo Zhixing?
Huo Zhixing sensed the fervor in her eyes, and also felt a secret change occurring somewhere within him...
He tightened his grip on her even more.
"What are you doing?" Jiang Can became alert, but it was too late; he was already held tightly in his arms and couldn't move.
"Stop fooling around!" she laughed, trying to push him away, but he wouldn't budge. Annoyed, she slapped him. "How did you grow those arms? Are they made of iron?!"
"Of course not." Huo Zhixing grinned mischievously, taking her small hand and guiding it downwards. "There's a place that is..."
Jiang Can accidentally bumped into it, let out a soft cry, and blushed deeply.
"It's been so long, are you still shy?" The man's breathing was clearly unsteady.
She lowered her eyes, her expression charming and innocent, making it even harder for him to look away.
"You agreed?" he asked in a deep voice.
