Chapter 204 Not Alone
Li Jinxing could only shrug his shoulders regretfully and sigh. He loosened his grip on her hand and was about to turn around and leave when he stopped. Standing at the door of the study, he smiled faintly at her and said, "The question you asked requires a dialectical answer..."
Without waiting for Nie Yao to speak, Li Jinxing continued with a smile: "If you hadn't saved me, we might not have met until now..."
Nie Yao finally realized what was happening, nodded, and replied with a smile, "You're right..."
"But there is one thing I can be sure of. Even if we didn't meet in this way, as long as we could get to know each other, one day I would be attracted to you..."
Li Jinxing's tone was very firm, which made Nie Yao laugh.
"There are so many daughters of wealthy families. Are you sure I can attract you?" Nie Yao raised an eyebrow and asked with a smile.
"Nie Yao, you have to believe that you are unique..." Li Jinxing's lips curled slightly, his eyes focused and scorching: "No one can replace you!"
Nie Yao was slightly startled and met his focused eyes. It seemed as if her whole body was enveloped in his scorching gaze, and a warmth instantly surrounded her whole body.
After an unknown amount of time, she raised the corners of her lips and replied with a smile: "Li Jinxing, thank you for your affirmation!"
"To put it another way, if you knew that saving me would involve so much trouble and danger, would you still choose to save me?" Li Jinxing smiled and threw the question back to Nie Yao.
Nie Yao answered almost without hesitation: "I will!"
She never regretted saving Li Jinxing, even when she was followed by a mysterious vehicle that night, even when she was trembling with fear when facing those thugs with baseball bats...
But she never regretted it!
Li Jinxing seemed to have guessed that she would answer like this, but when he heard this affirmative answer from her again, an unprecedented happy smile appeared in his eyes.
It turned out that he always thought women were troublesome, and he had seen too many intrigues and profiteering. Only with her did he not have to think too much, nor did he have to be too nervous...
She is not the kind of naive person who studies in an ivory tower and doesn't care about the world. She has her intelligence and courage, and will not back down easily in the face of provocation and threats. But in many things, she still retains her innocence and sincerity, which is the most valuable!
She has experienced a lot, even had to face the injustice of fate, and had her wealthy life stolen for twenty years, but she can still treat others sincerely. How can he bear to let go of her?
"Why are you looking at me like that? Go take a shower!" Nie Yao felt a little numb from Li Jinxing's gaze, and quickly rolled her eyes at him and urged him.
Li Jinxing then withdrew his gaze from her, chuckled softly, and turned to go to the bathroom.
Nie Yao touched her cheek and found that her face had become hot unconsciously. Therefore, he accompanied her in such "foolishness" and joked around, and temporarily put aside the unpleasant things that happened in the Nie family!
She had originally felt that returning to the Nie family, she felt somewhat lonely in this city, because there were no teachers or friends here...
But now, with Li Jinxing's company, she realized that she was not alone!
Nie Yao curled the corners of her lips slightly, and had no intention of looking at the messages on the computer anymore, so she simply turned off the computer and returned to the bedroom.
Just as she lay down, Li Jinxing walked in wrapped in a bath towel, his body still steaming from his bath.
