Chapter 62: A kiss that makes my heart itch.
She heard it.
She heard her heart beating uncontrollably, almost drowning out all the sounds around her. That was the best proof of her heartbeat.
Jin Yunyan was right. She should be fairer. She would not know whether she would feel the same as before when she received the gift until she had it.
She just grew up and no longer regarded what she longed for in the past as her only goal, and no longer fell into the whirlpool of being loved.
But this doesn't mean that she should keep those loves out of her.
The carriage was filled with silence for a moment. From Jin Yunyan's perspective, she was still very calm and seemed to have no reaction to what he said.
But Jin Yunyan's character, ambition hidden beneath a gentleness, showed no sign of backing down even if she didn't respond. In some ways, he was the complete opposite of Bo Xia. As soon as he saw the slightest opportunity, he would try to seize it.
And Bo Xia had already given him an opportunity.
So at this moment, he was still at ease and did not seem to be in a hurry to get the answer.
"Are you free next week?" Jin Yunyan looked at her. "Do you want to go see the sea?"
"Um."
"Will you be my driver then?" He teased her deliberately.
"Um."
Jin Yunyan paused and said, "You don't ask for the specific date or the specific address. Aren't you afraid that I'll take you somewhere and sell you off?"
She said "hmm" again, as if she was not listening to him.
Jin Yunyan's deep eyes stared at her for a long moment, as if he wanted to see through her from head to toe. He wondered if she hadn't heard what he had just said, or if she was angry again. He tilted his head slightly, his sexy Adam's apple bobbing up and down. "Okay, then we can share a room."
This time Bo Xia heard it clearly and looked at him in surprise, as if accusing him of being a hooligan.
He chuckled.
When her slender legs were about to touch him, they were held down by his broad palm. The subtle touch was like an electric current spreading along her skin. Her long eyelashes trembled slightly and she looked at him for a long time.
When the car arrived at the destination, Bo Xia said goodbye to him as usual. Jin Yunyan couldn't really figure out what she was thinking, wondering if she was frightened or simply indifferent.
Regardless of which possibility it was, he felt a sense of powerlessness for the first time.
Just as he was lowering his eyes, the person next to him suddenly turned back. The faint fragrance of some cool roses lingered on his nose, and the next second he felt soft lips gently pressing against his face.
At that moment, all his calmness, rationality and ease disappeared.
Jin Yunyan wasn't actually restrained or aloof; he had all the desires a grown man should have. He also admitted that he had considered further communication with Bo Xia.
But he didn't expect that such a casual kiss would disrupt all his thoughts and make him unable to recover for a long time.
When he looked up, he saw her sparkling eyes. There was no evasion in them. On the contrary, her eyes showed her firm choice for him.
Or in other words, the choice of love.
What Jin Yunyan didn't know at that time was——
After experiencing countless moments of hurt, she still chose to be a brave person who dared to love.
A soft sound came to his ears, and through the car window, Jin Yunyan saw Bo Xia's back. She was like a light dragonfly skimming across the surface of his water, and before the waves completely disappeared, she fluttered her transparent wings and flew away from his world.
So he missed the chance to catch her.
When the car drove back to the garage of the villa, he slowly unbuttoned his collar, gently pulled off his tie and rolled it into a ball beside him. Jin Yunyan leaned on the sofa, and the soft touch still touched his cheek.
Before this, he had never thought that he would have such an innocent side. The mirror reflected his murky eyes, and after a while he couldn't help but light a cigarette.
It seemed as if inhaling the smoke could also alleviate the desire in his heart.
Because of that kiss, there was a hole in his heart that needed that specific person to fill it. Just at this time, he received a call from Bo Xia. Her reaction time was a little scary. She actually started asking him where he had just mentioned going to play and what day of the week.
Jin Yunyan was touched by her cuteness, but this behavior wouldn't be cute if it happened to anyone else, but it was different when it happened to her. He chuckled softly, raised his hand to press the half-burned cigarette into the ashtray, and said in a slightly hoarse voice: "Isn't it up to me?"
This was pure nonsense, but Bo Xia didn't mind. "In that case, send me your itinerary on WeChat. I haven't taken my annual leave yet, so any day will do."
He felt that he might be ill, and his heart was moved again by her words that showed she had no defense against him at all.
"But..." She paused for a moment, "You said sharing a room, but I don't think it's appropriate."
Still remember this...
Jin Yunyan was originally teasing her because she didn't react, and of course there was no point in forcing her. Just as he was about to explain, the other party whispered, "I don't sleep well. What if I disturb your sleep?"
He didn't know for a moment whether she thought too highly of herself or was deliberately avoiding the subject: "Is that all you're worried about?"
"There are other things," Bo Xia was silent for a while, "for example, I talk in my sleep..."
Jin Yunyan laughed softly before he finished speaking. If they really slept in the same bed, he felt that he could never be so innocent as to only think about sleeping.
He still asked: "Are you usually so defensive around men?"
Bo Xia blurted out subconsciously: "You are not..."
"……"no?
Jin Yunyan thought helplessly, is he no longer considered a man in her eyes?
That night, Jin Yunyan sent the specific itinerary to Bo Xia. Before leaving, he went to Yu Lao's house for dinner at his invitation. He seemed to be in a good mood those days. Yu Lao smiled and asked him if he had finally achieved a happy ending with Miss Bo?
He replied politely, saying it would be quick.
When Mr. Yu asked how they knew each other, Jin Yunyan replied calmly, "We were high school classmates."
"So there's such a connection? Were you secretly dating back then?"
He lowered his eyes and smiled gently, "If I had known this day would come, I would have secretly started a relationship. Blame me for being blind."
Sheng Chi knew a little about their relationship; after all, Jin Yunyan had once asked him for advice on relationships, but she'd given up after realizing he wasn't reliable. He said with a hint of gloating, "He's blind. When the girl liked him, he didn't see anyone else, but now he's chasing her..."
No one expected such a story to happen.
Yu Qinghe endured it and didn't interrupt them. She wasn't the kind of person who would embarrass herself again and again.
However, when she learned that the other party was not a latecomer who had gained the upper hand, the resentment in her heart not only did not subside but became even stronger, and the bitterness in her heart began to surge.
It turns out that a person like him will grow up one day, will give his preference to one person, and will be filled with another girl in his heart and eyes.
She always thought that he had no interest in romance, so she always thought she still had a chance.
But I never thought that one day the truth would be so cruel. Having seen how he loved others, it seemed impossible to convince myself that he was a piece of ice that could be warmed by persistence and passion.
She didn't say anything at the time, but later found Sheng Chi and Zhou Qingyue. She wanted to know what was so unique about that girl and where she had lost.
Sheng Chi told her seriously: "There is one thing you can't compare to her."
"Which point?"
“She doesn’t take the initiative.”
"..." Yu Qinghe frowned, looking somewhat doubtful.
Seeing her look like a foolish beauty, Sheng Chi suppressed his laughter and continued to deceive: "Think about it carefully. Ah Yan has seen all kinds of women. Is it true that all of them like him and flatter him? He has seen too many of them and no longer feels anything. Isn't it true that he only likes those who are unattainable and cold?"
"Really?" She hesitated a little.
The usually arrogant young lady showed a thoughtful expression and looked a little silly.
"Really? You don't know I'm his good friend yet. Is there anyone in this world who knows him better than me? So you have to keep Ah Yan on your side and don't get too close to him."
After everyone really believed in the research, Zhou Qingyue was speechless and amused. He shook his head and said, "You really can do it."
"No, what do you mean I can really do it?" Sheng Chi was puzzled. "Isn't this a great deed for me? Haven't you heard the saying 'It's better to demolish a temple than to ruin a marriage'? I have to sit at the head table at their wedding."
Zhou Qingyue sneered and returned the table.
You speak as if Yu Qinghe has the ability to break them up without you.
Jin Yunyan had just finished a phone call and came over to say goodbye to a few people. Sheng Chi saw the gentle look in his eyes and knew who called.
I have never seen a woman so attentive before. She is so passionate about love.
Sheng Chi couldn't help but say, "Some people used to find my relationship boring, but now it's their turn, they can't even suppress their anger."
Jin Yunyan glanced at him, but probably because he was in a good mood, he didn't say anything.
Zhou Qingyue, who was standing next to him, added, "Maybe it's because they're really in a relationship, while your girlfriends are just talking about money, so it doesn't seem that interesting to bystanders."
“…”
When Jin Yunyan left, the two were still arguing. Sheng Chi asked him if he was scolding him for having only money and no substance. Zhou Qingyue said calmly, "I thought you didn't understand."
“…”
Bo Xia had already packed her things. When she mentioned this to Wen Xin, she felt a little disappointed. "In that case, I will generously give you to Jin Yunyan for your birthday this year. You know I've always been so considerate."
Only then did she remember that her birthday was approaching. It turned out that Jin Yunyan had chosen this time specifically to celebrate her birthday.
She was always punctual and went downstairs a few minutes early. When Jin Yunyan's car arrived, Wen Xin was still messaging her: "Are you guys staying in the same room? Do you need me, a seasoned veteran, to share some experience?"
“…”
Bo Xia explained that they were not staying in the same room. Wen Xin was a little disappointed and joked that Jin Yunyan was unromantic and should give herself to her as a birthday present.
While she was smiling, Jin Yunyan came over to help her carry her things and asked her what made her so happy.
She looked up at him, her eyes slightly raised, as if she was about to say something but hesitated. He didn't know why, but Jin Yunyan read several different meanings into her words. He had thought the turmoil in his heart had subsided over the past few days, but he didn't expect it to surge back up at the sight of her.
Bo Xia said it was nothing, he just made a few jokes with Wen Xin.
Jin Yunyan didn't say anything, and his eyes looked much darker when he looked at her. He raised his watch to check the time and asked her why she didn't let him wait downstairs for a while. She said she didn't have the habit of making people wait.
Jin Yunyan smiled: "You don't need to pay attention to these things in front of me."
After putting the things away, Bo Xia was really about to go to the driver's seat. Seeing this, Jin Yunyan raised his hand to hold the car door: "What, are you really going to be my driver?"
"It's not impossible." She answered seriously, but she looked obedient and seductive, making people feel itchy.
How should I warn her to be a little wary of him?
Jin Yunyan finally let her sit in the passenger seat. Even a mysophobe like him had prepared snacks in the car. Bo Xia didn't eat much, and soon after getting in, she leaned back and fell asleep.
They didn't know how long they slept in a daze, but they arrived at their destination.
The hotel we booked has a sea view room, and you can see the gorgeous sunset outside through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
Jin Yunyan helped her pack her things. Seeing that she brought her computer, he was a little amused: "Don't tell me you still have work to do."
"Just to prepare for any emergencies and reply to a few emails."
There was a hint of teasing in the corners of his eyes, and he asked with some jealousy: "How much salary did Meng Xubai pay you?"
Bo Xia raised his eyes to look at him and couldn't help laughing.
Her clear eyes were like a small lake, swaying in front of him, as if they could instantly take away any bad emotions. So much so that he even forgot the purpose of the question just now.
Before returning to his room, he gently told her to get some rest, as he had an important schedule tomorrow. Bo Xia actually knew that he was going to celebrate her birthday, but she pretended to be in the dark and asked him the details.
His deep eyes rested on her for a long time.
That was a look that belonged only to adult men. It was gentle on the surface but concealed a hint of danger, as if what they were going to do tomorrow was not so simple.
After a while, Jin Yunyan said vaguely, "Guess."
