Auntie, this will only benefit us and not cause any harm!"
"Don't you regret it?"
Shen Yueyan shook her head, tears welling in her eyes, her voice choked but firm: "As long as I can get revenge and clear my parents' name, I can do anything!"
Shen Lu frowned slightly.
She could never be cruel to Shen Yueyan. She was angry this time mainly because she was kidnapped.
When she heard the news, her legs were so weak that she could hardly stand. If she hadn't been with the Ning couple, she would have fainted long ago. So when the two of them were about to rush to the scene, she forced herself to follow them, using the excuse of worrying about Ning Yifan's safety.
It was not until she went over and saw Shen Yueyan standing there safe and sound that she breathed a sigh of relief and her hanging heart finally relaxed.
But looking at the person in front of her, her haggard face, her heart began to ache unconsciously again.
She still couldn't help herself, so she reached out and helped her up, letting her sit next to her.
"You, you, what can I say about you!"
She held her in her arms, and the two of them leaned on each other without saying a word. The dusk shrouded them, and everything was said without words.
At night, Xia Penny and Ye Chen were cuddling on the sofa reading books. She was lying in Ye Chen's arms, eating an apple and reading a book, while Ye Chen hugged her. It was a very beautiful scene.
While he was reading, Xia Peini suddenly called him: "Ye Chen?"
"Um?"
Xia Penny closed the book and looked up: "Do you think we are moving a little too fast?"
"Huh? Why?" Ye Chen looked down at her, gently stroking her hair with his slender fingers, and asked softly.
Xia Penny put the book down, sat up, and tried to argue with him seriously: "We have only been together for a few months, and we are about to choose a date to get engaged, right..."
Looking at Ye Chen's increasingly gloomy face, she swallowed unconsciously and stepped back unconsciously.
"Is it something?" Ye Chen said in a low voice, his body moving closer as she retreated, and finally forced her to the corner of the sofa.
The warm breath brushed across her cheek, instantly staining it with a blush. She suddenly felt her breathing become a little disordered, and she turned her head away awkwardly.
She leaned against the armrest of the sofa, supporting herself with her hands. Facing Ye Chen's pressure, she didn't dare look at him. She responded with a trembling voice, "Is it... a little... too fast?"
Ye Chen's lips curled up, and he chuckled. He leaned close to her ear, and his lips touched her burning ear intentionally or unintentionally, and whispered, "Are you afraid that you will change your mind and fall in love with someone else and then be unable to get rid of me?"
Thinking of her looking at the handsome guy like a fangirl, he couldn't help feeling jealous.
Xia Penny blushed and quickly denied: "No, no! I didn't!"
"and you……"
Before Ye Chen could finish his words, the door was opened.
"squeak……"
It turned out that He Yanhua was bringing a plate of fruit to them.
"Xia Xia, I cut some fruit, you two can..."
As a result, when I came in, I saw the ambiguous atmosphere between the two of them...
Xia Penny was half lying on the sofa, her eyes shy and her face flushed, while Ye Chen was covering her...
He Yanhua's sudden attack left the two of them at a loss. They immediately straightened their clothes and sat up. Xia Penny's already red face became even redder.
"Mom, why didn't you knock before you came in?" Ye Chen's hoarse voice sounded.
She understood instantly, covered her eyes tactfully, and put down the fruit: "I'm sorry, it's my fault, I disturbed you, please continue, continue..."
After saying this, he quickly retreated, leaving a gap with his fingers to take a peek before leaving.
Ever since they got together, Xia Peini felt that Ye Chen was becoming more and more enchanting, always teasing her intentionally or unintentionally. He was clearly an ascetic and icy handsome man before, so why did he make her blush and her heart beat fast at every turn now?
Even now, the blush on her face hasn't gone away yet.
Xia Penny tried hard to calm her madly beating heart, picked up the book beside her, and smiled awkwardly: "Hey, let's read for a while..."
Ye Chen approached her, supporting his head with one hand and looking at her with his head tilted: "But my mother said that we should continue..."
The voice was so low and raspy that it made her shudder.
Oops, my heart is beating faster...
She blinked helplessly. To ease the embarrassment, she reached out to the fruit that He Yanhua had just placed aside and picked up two strawberries: "Have some strawberries!"
He stuffed one into his own mouth and handed the other to Ye Chen's mouth.
Ye Chen held her hand, looked at her with ambiguous eyes, smiled slightly, and said, "What I want to eat...is not strawberries..."
"Then what do you want to eat?" Xia Penny blurted out.
As soon as she finished speaking, she realized...
She regretted why she spoke so quickly, but it was too late, Ye Chen had already covered her lips...
Facing Ye Chen like this, she couldn't help herself. She put her arms around his waist and responded enthusiastically...
In fact, when you think about it carefully, although she was the one who shamelessly pursued Ye Chen when they were together, after they were together, every time they kissed, it seemed that Ye Chen was the one who took the initiative, and she was the passive one.
It was as if the two of them had switched places. The cold and abstinent Ye Chen became enthusiastic and proactive, while the shameless her often blushed and became shy.
Just like now, her little hands tightly grasped the bed sheet, but her heart was completely broken...
Isn't she aloof? Isn't she abstinent? Isn't she cold as ice? Why is she now...
She looked helplessly at the ceiling, her blurry eyes watching the violently shaking chandelier. She grabbed the bed sheet with her hands. It seemed that she would not be able to get up tomorrow...
