Chapter 81: Rising Ambiguity
Ye Jinmo was annoyed.
What happened today?
I must have been upset by Sister Qinghuan's words.
She tried to stand still, but the man's arms restrained her.
The sound of the wind carried his breath, and her neck felt itchy.
After a while, she said in a muffled voice: "Brother Chen."
"Um?"
"I'm almost suffocated by you..."
The man suddenly let go, coughed a few times, touched his nose, and turned to the trunk to get the astronomical telescope.
A cool breeze blew away a lot of the heat between the two of them.
Ye Jinmo patted her face, walked quickly forward and helped move the bracket.
The sky is clear tonight, and the crescent moon is particularly bright in the sky.
She was not very familiar with these things. She stood aside and watched Ji Sichen fiddling with the astronomical telescope. She did not forget to take a few pictures of the night sky with her mobile phone, with a lot of thoughts in her mind.
"Why do you suddenly want to look at the stars?"
"The news said that the air in Qingshan has been clear these days, which is perfect for stargazing. I happened to be here on a business trip, and I thought you'd be here too."
She nodded. It turned out that she was on a business trip...
"Come and see!" He took her hand and pointed in the direction towards the night sky.
"There is a particularly bright star!" the girl said excitedly.
Through the telescope, the stars under the night sky are magnified, like blooming flowers.
She was reluctant to leave the camera, her fingers were cold and she was breathing heavily.
The next second, her hands were wrapped in warmth and her back was pressed against the man's chest.
Suddenly, my heart started beating like thunder.
It’s not like she had never been so close to Ji Sichen before, but tonight, Tan Qinghuan’s words kept circling in her mind.
She felt that something was changing quietly.
"Is it a bit cold?"
The concern that had nothing to do with lust made her heart flutter.
Fortunately, it was night time, so her blushing wouldn't be noticed.
She took a deep breath, freed her hand, grasped the tube of the lens, put her eyes close, and looked at it attentively.
Ji Sichen just stood quietly behind her. The breeze mixed with the unique fragrance of a girl penetrated into his nostrils without warning, making him unable to resist being greedy.
The air is quiet and the ambiguity rises.
His eyes fell on her back bathed in moonlight. He tilted his head slightly and saw a few strands of hair floating on her forehead.
He raised his hand to help her tuck her hair behind her ears. His fingertips touched her accidentally and he noticed the girl dodge.
His hands stiffened and a faint smile appeared on the corners of his lips.
He was too impatient. She was still a little girl, and it would scare her if he expressed his feelings in a hurry.
Ye Jinmo only felt a current spreading through her earlobe and throughout her body.
She actually looked forward to his touch!
After realizing that the man had stopped at that point, she felt an inexplicable sense of loss in her heart.
Hiss, this feeling is so weird...
He had never mentioned any other ideas before, and she was actually a little confused.
She raised her hand and rubbed her face.
Brother Chen is her friend, she can't just believe everything he says. If she asks rashly, wouldn't it be very embarrassing?
A gust of wind blew past her and she became a little more sober.
Right now, studying is the most important thing for her, and she can’t think about anything else.
Thinking of this, she regained some of her composure.
"Brother Chen, come and watch, there will be shooting stars tonight!"
the man said, lowering his head to her side.
The familiar woody scent suddenly approached, and she subconsciously turned her head and her lips brushed the man's face.
She was stunned.
Looking at the man's profile, I forgot to breathe for a moment.
Ji Sichen noticed the tenderness just now and turned around to meet her eyes.
In the moonlight, those watery eyes are even more charming.
As Ye Jinmo breathed, she felt her heart beating rapidly.
She felt from the bottom of her heart that he was really handsome!
Those dark eyes seemed to suck her in.
Suddenly, the man stood up, clenched his right fist and placed it on his lips, coughed lightly, and said in a hoarse voice: "It's getting late, let's go back!"
If he didn't go back, he was afraid that he would kiss her...
This little girl didn't know how deadly her confused expression just now was to him.
Ye Jinmo pursed her lips, patted her face, let out a long breath, and walked towards the car.
When they returned to the camp, Ji Sichen insisted on sending her off.
Helpless, she could only agree.
Unexpectedly, just after getting off the car and walking a few steps, I saw a figure not far away.
Her eyes lit up: "Brother!"
Ji Sichen's good mood disappeared in an instant.
"Professor Ye is here too. He hasn't rested yet at this late hour."
Ye Jinqian rolled his eyes and smiled gently, with a cold look in his eyes: "It's so late, it's not appropriate for President Ji to go out with Momo. I hope this kind of thing won't happen again in the future."
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
Ye Jinmo curled the corner of her mouth. Being a sensitive girl, she naturally felt the tension between the two of them.
But she didn't know why, her senior brother and Brother Chen seemed to be incompatible by nature, and they seemed to be having a quarrel since the first time they met.
She rarely saw her senior brother angry, and at this moment she could already feel the coldness emanating from Ye Jinqian.
Looking at the time, it was almost eleven o'clock. She shrank her neck and explained, "Brother, Brother Chen and I went to the front to look at the stars. We forgot the time for a moment. We won't do that again in the future."
"When did Momo become interested in astronomy?" Ye Jinqian's tone remained gentle.
But she always felt creepy.
Due to years of habit, she knew very well that her senior brother was blaming her for coming back too late.
She pretended to open her mouth and yawned, then pulled Ye Jinqian's sleeve and said, "Let's go back. We still have a mission tomorrow. I'm tired."
After saying that, she waved at Ji Sichen.
"Please Professor Ye, send Jinmo back. I won't go in."
Ye Jinqian smiled politely, turned around and took her away.
All the way in silence.
Most of the students in the camp were asleep, with only a few tents having lights on.
Ye Jinmo couldn't help but whispered: "Brother, are you angry?"
Ye Jinqian turned to look at her and sighed for a while: "Momo, do you remember what Senior Brother said? Don't come back too late at night."
She held up three fingers: "Never again."
"Brother is just worried about you and doesn't mean to blame you." Ye Jinqian touched her head.
The corners of her mouth curved: "I know that Senior Brother is the best!"
As soon as she turned around, she saw Tan Qinghuan jogging towards her in a panic, holding a branch in her hand.
"What happened to Sister Qinghuan?"
There was a thin layer of sweat on Tan Qinghuan's forehead and his face was anxious. He glanced at Ye Jinqian and didn't know how to start talking for a moment.
"Has something happened?" Ye Jinmo grabbed her shoulders and forced her to calm down.
"After you left, I saw someone enter our tent and follow behind. When I went in, the ground was full of..."
Tan Qinghuan stopped listening to the sound abruptly, then shuddered, his scalp tingling, and he was about to cry.
"Jinmo, there are so many scorpions in our tent! I can't get rid of them no matter what I do!"
She spoke incoherently: "I'm sorry, I didn't keep an eye on the tent..."
Ye Jinmo didn't say much, his eyes were stern, he patted her shoulder, and walked straight ahead.
