Xie Xingyun narrowed his eyes and said, “What if I say that what you said really hurt me?”
Bai Xianyu was a little surprised by his straightforwardness, but she was more at a loss. She thought that he would let it go and not talk about this topic seriously.
He repeated in a hoarse voice, “You’ve really hurt me, Little Yu.”
Bai Xianyu pursed her lips nervously. “Then how do you want me to apologize?”
Xie Xingyun’s gaze was dark. “A hug?”
“…Huh?” Bai Xianyu was a little puzzled by this request.
“Give me a hug and I’ll forgive you.”
Bai Xianyu’s expression paused, but she did not immediately refuse.
Xie Xingyun felt a lump in his throat and took a step forward tentatively. Seeing that she did not dodge, he hugged her tightly and pressed her against the door.
Bai Xianyu was slightly stunned by his grip on her waist.
Xie Xingyun buried his head in her neck and panted heavily, as if he was suppressing some strong emotions.
She rested her chin on his broad shoulder and curled her fingers behind his back. After hesitating for two seconds, she patted him gently twice. “I’m sorry.”
The girl’s voice was soft.
It was like a spring breeze brushing across the water, quiet and gentle.
Xie Xingyun hugged her even tighter and his iron arms closed, wishing he could embed the girl’s delicately beautiful body into his.
It was a misunderstanding.
No, she did not want to see him.
She had acted on impulse.
He clearly had not gotten it yet, but just one sentence from her could make him feel the joy of regaining what he had lost.
He was worried about personal gains and losses and was in a constant state of anxiety. He was afraid that she would let him leave like that time.
“I really didn’t do it on purpose. You… don’t have to be so sad.” Bai Xianyu’s tone this time was that of shock. At first, she thought that Xie Xingyun was pretending, so she hesitated. But now that he was hugging her and listening to his rapid heartbeat and unstable breathing, she sensed that he was not pretending.
However, could the words “please leave now” hurt him…
So much so that when he sent the candies and the jade pendant, he had to rely on others.
Xie Xingyun raised his eyelids slightly and gradually calmed down. He still did not say anything.
Bai Xianyu patted his back and said, “Then why don’t we do this? You saved my life last time. Take it that I use that Flametail Fish brocade pouch as repayment. But I haven’t thanked you for helping me find the jade pendant…”
Xie Xingyun listened casually. The strong emotions in his eyes had been hidden very well, and what gradually surfaced was his strong desire for her.
Every time he touched her, he could not bear to let go.
The man’s eyes darkened and his hand moved uncontrollably to her waist.
From the girl’s voice, she had not yet detected it. It sounded like she was seriously trying to give him a thank-you gift. “…If you make a wish that’s not excessive, I can help you fulfill it…”
Bai Xianyu’s waist was slender and soft. He could hold it firmly with one hand.
At this moment, hugging her tightly almost made him lose control.
“What do you want? The brocade pouch has already been made for you. Is there anything else you want?”
Xie Xingyun pressed against her ear, the veins on his hand showing, and his voice was hoarse. “I want you.”
Bai Xianyu paused and almost thought that she had heard wrongly.
“…I want you, promise me one thing.”
After he finished speaking, Bai Xianyu then caught her breath.
However, Bai Xianyu’s ears seemed to be filled with the man’s words mixed with hot breath. “What is it?”
Xie Xingyun looked down at her and moved his head away in a sorry state.
Bai Xianyu looked at herself in confusion. Her clothes were very snug and quite normal.
“What happened?”
It was precisely because it was too snug, and with him hugging her so tightly, the blurry curves were even clearer.
Xie Xingyun pretended to cough lightly, his earlobes slightly red. “Nothing.”
“Earlier, you just asked me to promise you something. What is it? Tell me.”
“Give me a chance to pursue you?”
Bai Xianyu’s heart beat faster and she subconsciously took a few steps back.
Xie Xingyun did not give her a chance to step back. He grabbed her wrist forcefully, his high nose almost touching hers. “Is this request too much?”
Bai Xianyu’s expression froze for a moment. Her back was supported by his large hand and pinned to him.
“Or are you afraid of falling in love with me again?”
“I’m not afraid,” the girl blurted out.
Xie Xingyun laughed and placed her on the ground. “Then I’ll take that as a yes.”
Bai Xianyu bit her lips.
The way Xie Xingyun looked at her changed from mischievous to serious when a hint of fear appeared on the girl’s face.
Bai Xianyu was distraught. Although she did not have any feelings for Xie Xingyun that surpassed that of friends, she was sincerely afraid that those years would reappear.
Xie Xingyun said slowly, “Don’t be afraid of me.”
Bai Xianyu did not look up. “I am not.”
Then, as if reading her mind, he said softly, “It won’t happen again.”
Love him again.
He would not repeat the same mistake..
