Chapter 35
Although it was just a very light touch, it stirred up a huge wave in Jiang Yi's heart, like little butterflies fluttering around her heart. It had no great power, yet it stirred up a hurricane.
When she returned to her room that night, she tossed and turned, unable to sleep. With no other option, she took out her book and read it in her room to calm the turmoil in her heart.
When Jiang's mother woke up in the middle of the night, she saw that her daughter's room light was on. She rubbed her eyes, glanced at the clock on the wall, and realized it was already very late. She yawned, then looked at her daughter, who was engrossed in reading a book at the table, and asked in a puzzled tone, "Why are you reading so late?"
Jiang Yi was actually a little distracted, her mind filled with images from tonight.
She was actually with Xu Wang, and he even kissed her.
She had a feeling she couldn't quite describe, a mix of excitement and guilt towards her mother and Aunt Fu, realizing she had been foolish enough to be with Xu Wang.
However, I don't really regret it. After all, the sweetness of love is something many people yearn for. As for the future, we'll talk about it later.
Upon hearing her mother's voice, she quickly turned around, her expression somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Um, Mom, I just... I was reading for a while and couldn't fall asleep."
Jiang's mother was very sleepy and kept yawning. She could even feel her eyes welling up with tears. When she heard her daughter say that she wasn't sleepy, she didn't say anything, but simply said, "Sleeping late is bad for your health. Go to bed early."
"good."
Jiang Yi also felt that she should go to sleep, so not long after her mother returned to her room, she lay down and prepared to continue sleeping.
But I still couldn't fall asleep, and I tossed and turned in bed.
Finally, unable to bear it any longer, she took out her phone and asked Xu Wang, "Can you sleep?"
After sending the message, no one replied for a while. Jiang Yi thought Xu Wang had fallen asleep and was about to go to sleep as well. But to her surprise, he sent a message soon after, saying, "I can't sleep either."
Jiang Yi: "Then what should we do?"
Xu Wang: "Shall I take you out to see the stars?"
Jiang Yi: "Where are the stars?"
Xu Wang: "Get dressed, you'll know when you get out."
Jiang Yi thought for a moment and decided that since she couldn't sleep anyway, she might as well go out.
She quickly got dressed, grabbed her phone, and tiptoed out. She shuffled past her mother's room, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she reached the bottom of the stairs.
Then, as soon as he turned around, he saw Xu Wang.
The man was dressed in black, his figure blending into the night, looking very tall and handsome.
Jiang Yi was stunned for a moment, then ran over quickly.
Xu Wang reached out and put his arm around her. Seeing that her face was flushed, he put the hat on her head, then put her hand in his pocket and led her forward.
Jiang Yi was incredibly curious about where they were going next: "Where are we going later?"
Xu Wang said, "You'll find out soon enough."
Jiang Yi: "Oh."
Finally, the car left home and arrived at the entrance of a mountain resort hotel.
Jiang Yi was slightly surprised to see that he had brought her to the hotel. No, their current progress, although they had confirmed their relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend, was only a day old. Wasn't this a bit too fast?
Xu Wang knew what Jiang Yi was thinking at a glance. Seeing her hesitant look, he chuckled, pushed her forward, and said, "What are you thinking about? We're going to the back mountain to see the stars."
After parking the car, I took her to the back of the mountain.
I don't know if it's because this place is further south, but the temperature on the mountain is much better than at home. And the further back you go, the warmer it feels. When you get closer, you'll find that there are hot springs on the back mountain.
Xu Wang glanced at the hot spring pools filled with flower petals and said, "It's probably a bit too late to soak in the hot springs now. Let's do it next time. I'll bring you here earlier next time, and we can soak in the hot springs together."
When Xu Wang said this, his expression was very serious, without any other meaning, but for some reason, Jiang Yi still thought of something else.
She reflected on herself, wondering if her thoughts were too unhealthy.
She covered her face, suppressing her wandering thoughts, and then obediently followed Xu Wang into a house.
It's winter now, and it's too cold to stargaze outside. Luckily, there's a viewing platform here for winter viewing. Inside the sealed platform, you can see the incredibly brilliant starry sky above you through the skylight. The Milky Way is dazzling, and the stars are twinkling. The scenery is absolutely beautiful.
Inside the room, it was warm and cozy, like springtime.
Jiang Yi was very sleepy before, but now because the room was so warm and there was a breathing man beside her, she felt very safe and slowly fell asleep.
When she woke up the next day, she found herself in a hotel room. She was startled awake and quickly checked her clothes.
Xu Wang brought in breakfast, and when he saw her checking her clothes, he leaned closer to her and said with a smile, "You fell asleep last night, so I booked two rooms. You're my girlfriend, I wouldn't be in such a hurry."
He paused for a moment, then added, "However, this is because I'm a bit of a gentleman. If it were another man, it might be different. So, you should be careful with other guys."
He practically has "I'm the best man in the world" etched on his face.
Nothing happened, and Jiang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. After washing her face, she went to eat.
While eating, Jiang Yi noticed a series of messages from her mother on her phone. She immediately panicked, a steamed bun stuck in her throat, her expression frantic. "Oh no! Oh no! My mom asked where I was, and I haven't seen anything. She won't think we…"
Seeing her anxious expression, Xu Wang found it somewhat adorable and said with a smile, "Your mother told me that a friend was coming this morning, so we went to pick him up. You didn't sleep well last night, so you fell asleep in your friend's room."
Jiang Yi couldn't help but feel a little disdainful after hearing his words, and said, "My mother definitely won't believe you if you say that."
Xu Wang shrugged and said, "Why don't you explain it to her yourself?"
Jiang Yi picked up the pillow next to her and threw it at him, saying with a hint of resentment, "It's all your fault."
Xu Wang caught the pillow and couldn't help but laugh at her slightly embarrassed and annoyed expression.
Fortunately, when she returned home, Jiang Yi's mother didn't ask any questions. She only told her to take good care of herself and not to get pregnant during college.
Although Jiang Yi thought her mother was very nice, the two of them hadn't even held hands yet, and to be suspected of going to a hotel together was really...
Jiang Yi was both ashamed and angry, and scolded Xu Wang. Xu Wang, on the other hand, enjoyed it and called back with a smile, saying, "Then, I won't take you out for a stroll next time at night?"
Jiang Yi didn't want to.
After all, the stars were quite beautiful last night.
Before she knew it, it was Chinese New Year. On New Year's Day, she wore the new clothes Xu Wang had bought for her. It was a purple dress with white flowers on the hem, like ocean waves, which looked very beautiful. She wore a light purple zip-up jacket on top, which looked fluffy and made her look even cuter.
As soon as Fu Zhaoya saw her, she gave her a New Year's red envelope and praised her, "Your new clothes are very beautiful."
Hearing Fu Zhaoya's praise, Jiang Yi felt a little embarrassed and said with a blush, "Thank you, Auntie."
Your son bought it.
