336: Xiao Ye, I like you
Yu Xiaoye's gaze was still lingering on Zhou Ziheng.
She didn't dare look around.
But, I kind of want to watch it.
The thought of wanting to see but not daring to see made her heart beat fast and her face as hot as if she had a 40-degree fever.
She glanced timidly at Zhou Ziheng's face, and it happened that Zhou Ziheng was also looking at her.
As their eyes met, Yu Xiaoye's heart beat faster.
She didn't know what to say and felt dizzy.
Seeing her shy face, Zhou Ziheng liked her more and more. He liked her to the core. He moved his mind and gently moved closer. He put his forehead against Yu Xiaoye's forehead and touched it lightly. He called her name in a dreamy voice:
"Ono."
“——” Yu Xiaoye began to tremble.
"Ono—I like you."
“——”
Yu Xiaoye felt even more dizzy, as if he was dreaming, with a sense of unreality. His whole body was up and down, and it really felt like he was floating in a dream.
Her mind was in a mess and she couldn't find the right words.
Seeing that she was silent, Zhou Ziheng moved his nose forward slightly and pressed it against her hot cheek. Then, his cold lips gently kissed her cheek like a dragonfly touching the water.
Yu Xiaoye hid aside, his voice trembling unnaturally:
"Director, we are not suitable—"
Zhou Ziheng restrained his heavy breathing and asked:
"What's wrong?"
Yu Xiaoye couldn't say it, as if no place was suitable.
She had never thought that there was something going on between her and Zhou Ziheng—never really thought about it.
She probably guessed that the director might like her a little, but she thought that the director's liking for her was just an old man's greedy and incompetent possessiveness of a young girl, and it was not sincere.
But when she heard the director say "I like you", she was still greatly shocked.
In her previous life, someone confessed to her that he loved her.
But those guys were all big boys from the 21st century, her peers, young, sunny, and a little bit cool.
She could never have imagined that when she came to the Great Northern Wilderness in the 1970s, an old cadre like Zhou Ziheng would actually like her?
She was completely shocked.
Zhou Ziheng saw that her eyes were unfocused and she was dumbfounded and didn't say anything. He thought she must be frightened.
Zhou Ziheng shook her hand and continued to express his feelings in a gentle, low, and slightly hoarse voice:
"Xiao Ye, don't be afraid, I really like you.
I never thought that one day I would say such childish words, but I really like you, very much.
I used to hear people say that falling in love with someone is like losing your soul. Every time I heard this, I looked down on them, thinking they were too cowardly. Now I know it's not an exaggeration at all. Falling in love with someone is more than just losing your soul; it can literally make you lose your life.
Zhou Ziheng paused, then gently touched the tip of his nose against her burning cheek, and moved his lips to her burning ear:
"Xiao Ye, I like you.
I have been holding this in my heart for a long time. Every time I see you, I want to say it out loud, but I can't because I'm afraid it will scare you.
Director Liang warned me not to get close to you, saying it would affect your state and delay your rehearsals and performances. So even if I missed you, I didn't dare disturb you. I could only watch you from afar. Do you understand that kind of torture? It's worse than being shot in the chest."
At this point, his voice became painfully suppressed.
Yu Xiaoye listened to Zhou Ziheng's words. They were clearly right next to his ears, and he could even feel the rapid breathing. However, to Yu Xiaoye's ears, they became extremely distant, as if they were echoes from countless mountains.
Every word that fell into her ears became like a mirage, not real at all.
Zhou Ziheng suppressed his trembling voice and said:
"I didn't plan to tell you this today, nor did I plan to say those words to you that night, but when I saw you, I didn't know what stupid thing I would do.
Ono, don't be afraid, I don't want to cause you any trouble.
You don't have to reply to me now, don't rush to reject me, and don't say that we are not suitable.
You don't know me, you don't know what kind of person I am.
Promise me you'll get to know me before you make a decision, okay?"
Zhou Ziheng's gentle coaxing stirred up a storm in Yu Xiaoye's heart.
She was still drifting in her dream in a daze, and she became more and more dizzy. She felt as if the world was spinning around her and she couldn't see anything clearly.
Suddenly, Zhou Ziheng let go of her hand, gently put his arm around her waist, and lifted her chin with his other hand.
Yu Xiaoye realized something and dodged in panic, but a pair of slightly cold lips had already covered her lips.
Yu Xiaoye felt as if the whole world was shaking, as if the sky was falling and the earth was splitting apart.
My heart was already beating in my throat, and I couldn't breathe.
She felt a strong sense of suffocation and was about to faint.
She opened her eyes wide, and only her thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
I can’t breathe——
My chest feels so stuffy that it's about to explode.
She twisted her neck as hard as she could, turned her face away, and finally regained her breath.
The strong breath made her whole body tremble. She gasped for breath, again and again, and the feeling of being in a dream gradually faded away.
The world in front of me also became clear.
The sounds of running water, birdsong, and the man's breathing were all clear to my ears.
She instinctively wanted to push away his hot body, but Zhou Ziheng hugged her waist even tighter, pulled her into his arms, and then laid her down on the raised tree roots.
She was powerless to resist, her whole body limp, without any strength left. She stared blankly at the man's smooth skin and well-proportioned muscles on his shoulders, listening to his heavy breathing like the north wind.
Zhou Ziheng slightly supported
His arms lingered on her face for a few seconds before he placed one hand on the back of her neck and the other hand on her face, kissing her even more fiercely.
Yu Xiaoye closed his eyes tightly, and two tears rolled down the corners of his eyes and fell into his hair.
Everything happened so suddenly.
Leaving Yu Xiaoye no room to react.
Even Zhou Ziheng didn't expect all this to happen.
The kiss was so intense, yet so natural, as if it should have happened a long time ago, as if it could not be avoided.
——
After a frenzy.
Yu Xiaoye finally regained some of his sanity and strength.
She opened her eyes and began to struggle, pushing Zhou Ziheng's shoulders hard, but Zhou Ziheng grabbed her hand and pressed her to the ground.
She tried to turn her head away again.
Zhou Ziheng immediately chased after him.
No matter how she tried to escape, she could never escape his pursuit.
In desperation, Yu Xiaoye opened his mouth and took a bite.
Zhou Ziheng said nothing, just frowned, and finally let go.
Yu Xiaoye also loosened his teeth, turned his face away, and begged for mercy breathlessly:
"Let me go!"
Sounds like he's about to cry.
Zhou Ziheng pecked the corner of her lips again, touched her head lightly with his hand, and finally propped himself up, releasing his hold on the little girl.
