Chapter 183 No Way to Be Reasonable
In fact, when we first met in the Valley of the Kings, even though he was badly injured after being attacked, his body covered in blood and his face covered in dust, it couldn't hide his charm...
Even without the blessing of his status, he would stand out wherever he went!
When Li Jinxing heard her say that, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he asked in amusement, "Really? Then why isn't the woman sitting across from me captivated by my charm?"
Nie Yao blushed immediately, glared at him in feigned anger, and replied unhappily, "Are you teasing me on purpose?"
She pretended to lower her head to eat and avoided his gaze.
Li Jinxing saw that she didn't answer and was about to explain again, but Nie Yao muttered again, "If I didn't think you were attractive, I wouldn't have drawn so many sketches!"
She never considered herself obsessed with looks, perhaps because she was harassed by too many boys her age when she was in school. Instead, she preferred to admire the appearance of the ancient Egyptian pharaoh on the golden mask...
Li Jinxing's appearance and temperament seemed to be natural, whether it was his facial features that were as deep and as carved as those of the Pharaoh, or his proud figure, he looked like a king standing there without even needing to speak!
Only when facing Li Jinxing did she feel blushing and her heart beating for a man for the first time!
"Nie Yao, look up at me..." Li Jinxing's voice was more serious than ever before.
Nie Yao raised her head and looked at him blankly, with a hint of confusion in her eyes.
Li Jinxing put down the wine glass in his hand, looked deep into her eyes, and whispered: "I don't know what you are hesitating about, but if you like it, you shouldn't run away. You have always been a brave girl, haven't you?"
Nie Yao shook her head and smiled bitterly, sighing softly, "Li Jinxing, perhaps I'm not as brave as you think... The me you saw, the one who dared to fight the snakes, was my rational self! I also like my rational self, but sometimes when I face you and encounter your problems, I always can't stay rational..."
So that time, after hearing Li Jinxing's joke-like words, she was so angry that she kicked him out of the apartment without even considering whether he was safe.
Later, I couldn't get through to him on the phone, so I rushed out in a hurry and drove to look for him. As a result, I was followed and almost got into an accident. Later, when I was finally safe, my mind was blank and I just wanted to throw myself into his arms and cry!
Such irrationality made her feel a little scared when she thought about it...
"It is precisely because of this that we are real people, with flesh and blood, unlike machines!" Li Jinxing curled his lips slightly, took the initiative to hold the back of her hand, and whispered: "It is precisely because we care that we cannot be rational, and I am the same..."
Nie Yao looked at him in surprise, as if wanting to ask him when he behaved irrationally.
Li Jinxing couldn't explain it for a moment, so he just laughed and said, "Actually, for you, I have broken many principles, but I don't care about these, because those so-called principles are not as important as you!"
Nie Yao was stunned. She wanted to ask him what principle he had broken for her, but when the words came to her lips, she couldn't say them.
Because at this moment, she believed what he said was true...
"Promise me, follow your heart..." Li Jinxing gently stroked her palm and whispered, "Only your own heart will tell you the answer. Don't worry about anything in the outside world..."
Feeling the warmth of his palm and looking at his burning gaze in the flickering candlelight, Nie Yao seemed to have forgotten all those complicated thoughts, as if at this moment, in this warm little world, there were only him and her!
