Chapter 64 Admiration
"I didn't, you're slandering me!" Yu Nian was annoyed and aggrieved. "I said that Lu Yuchen and I had no inappropriate relationship. The reason we've been on the phone so frequently is because he introduced me to a case. The photo is because... because that photo is very important to me. The photo was taken when I went to Peking University in my second year of high school. If I hadn't had that experience, I would probably have lived a completely different life. It was an important turning point in my life, so I left it as a souvenir."
This was not a lie. She kept the photo because that day meant a lot to her.
Apart from the first time she met him, that day was also an important node in her life, and Lawrence Lu just happened to appear in the picture.
“It’s just that”
Yu Nian nodded heavily: "Yes!"
Ji Yanxing's anger was relieved. He had a physical aversion to Lu Yuchen because Yu Nian had an inexplicable trust in him. It was a trust that had accumulated over a long period of time and could not be replaced overnight. He met her eyes, was silent for a few seconds, and asked in a low voice: "Where is the person in your heart?"
Yu Nian: "I don't have anyone in my heart!"
".....the one I have a crush on"
Yu Nian held his breath.
"Aren't you not interested?"
Ji Yanxing pursed his lips and looked at her expressionlessly: "Why do you like him?"
Yu Nian stared at him for a few seconds and replied:
"He's very good-looking."
Ji Yanxing sneered: "Superficial."
"..." Yu Nian didn't think superficial was a derogatory term, and said seriously, "I was only a teenager at the time, and it was normal for me to be obsessed with a good-looking person."
Seventeen is the age when girls begin to fall in love, and he is so dazzling, with the aura of a favored child of heaven surrounding him. It is normal for a little girl like her to not be able to resist the temptation.
Ji Yanxing stared at her and suddenly asked: "Compete with me?"
Yu Nian's eyes widened. He didn't expect him to ask this.
Ji Yanxing felt uncomfortable with her staring eyes, raised his hand to pinch her chin, and snorted coldly: "Compared with me, who is prettier?"
He promised that if she dared to tell anyone else, he would bite her to death.
"...It's hard to say." Yu Nian stared at his face carefully, and then gave her final conclusion, "Overall, you are slightly better."
Now he has lost his youthful immaturity. With the accumulation of time and experience, he has become more mature and stable, and also stronger, with a full sense of security. Ji Yanxing's expression relaxed, but he was still lukewarm.
Look at her, "Just because she looks good makes you miss her for so many years"
"....." Yu Nian retorted, "He is different from others."
"Does he have three heads or six arms?"
“….”
Yu Nian stared at him for a few seconds and then burst out laughing.
Ji Yanxing glared at her coldly.
"I admit that I really liked him at that time," Yu Nian continued, seeing his face becoming increasingly gloomy.
"But my feelings for him are just like the feelings that fans have for their favorite stars, just admiration. I have only met him twice and have never said a complete sentence to him. How deep do you think the feelings can be?"
She did not deny that there was a time when she loved him terribly.
Rather than love, she would rather classify that feeling as admiration.
Love at first sight is the starting point of a relationship, but if liking wants to turn into love, it must take a long time of getting along, participating in each other's lives, and gradually becoming an indispensable part of each other. This is love.
I don’t know if Ji Yanxing accepted her statement, but he stopped nagging her. He raised his hand and pinched her cheek, snorting coldly: “Throw away that photo frame.”
Yu Nian: "What"
“Tear up the photo of you and Lawrence Lu.”
He tried not to care about the illusory person she was talking about, but Lawrence Lu was real and would jump around her from time to time.
"I'll put it away," Yu Nian bit her lower lip, "but I can't tear it up. That photo means a lot to me."
Ji Yanxing did not force her: "Don't take it out again."
".....oh."
He is truly autocratic and would have been a tyrant in ancient times.
She told him everything he wanted to know. Yu Nian didn't want to suffer any loss, so he looked up at him and said, "Now it's my turn to ask you."
Ji Yanxing lowered his eyes to look at her, "You ask."
"Why are you so nice to Meng Ziyun?" She was still feeling aggrieved about this matter.
Ji Yanxing looked at her steadily, the movie was almost ending.
After a moment of silence, Ji Yanxing looked at her and said, "I once promised someone that I would take care of Meng Ziyun for her."
Yu Nian was startled, "Is he a very important person?"
"The relationship is average, but I owe her a favor."
Yu Nian looked up at him and suddenly asked: "Then why don't you marry her?"
Meng Ziyun was beautiful, talented, and loved him, but he didn't have anyone he liked at the time.
Ji Yanxing raised his eyebrows: "I won't sacrifice myself just to repay a favor."
Feeling relieved, Yu Nian looked into his eyes and asked: "Why are you willing to marry me?"
Their first blind date was held in a cafe. He was gentle and polite to her throughout the whole process. Yu Nian could sense that he had no interest in her and was just being gentlemanly. She never thought he would agree to marry her. On the night of the blind date, she got drunk as a farewell to her seven-year crush. But she didn't expect him to call her and ask her to meet for the second time to ask if she was willing to marry him.
Ji Yanxing looked at her solemnly: "I think you are very suitable to be Mrs. Ji."
A string in Yu Nian's body seemed to be plucked. She knew rationally that he meant that they were a good match in terms of family background and appearance, but her heartbeat still accelerated uncontrollably, "I'm not the only one who is suitable."
"Maybe," Ji Yanxing said, "but you are the only person who makes me want to get married."
In other words, when he saw her, he inexplicably had the thought that "it would be nice to live with her for the rest of my life."
Yu Nian was stunned, as if a soft feather was passing through the tip of her heart. She had never thought that he married her not only because she was suitable.
She was a little special to him.
Ji Yanxing picked her up and said, "I can't promise that I won't bother Meng Ziyun anymore. I will talk to her and make things clear so that she won't interfere with our lives."
Yu Nian looked into his dark eyes and thought for a moment, "Okay."
She likes him.
She could also feel that he liked her.
Yu Nian raised her hands and put them around his neck, saying seriously, "Don't lose your temper for no reason in the future."
Ji Yanxing lowered his head and glared at her:
"I have no idea"
"....." Yu Nian looked at him, "Even if you are unhappy, you have to let me know the reason why you are unhappy. If you keep sulking next time, you will be so angry that you will die!"
She wouldn't be in a good mood to coax him every time!
Ji Yanxing's tone was neither cold nor warm. "When you were having dinner with me, you had a dead face, but when you answered Lawrence Lu's call, you were talking and laughing. You also put a photo of the two of you in the study. When you are tired from work, you can recharge yourself by just looking at it."
