Xinyan stared at Lin Yi blankly. She'd thought about their relationship before, and she'd thought that things between her and Lin Yi wouldn't work out because of her family and House Kang. She'd been suppressing her feelings for Lin Yi, trying her best not to let things get out of hand with Lin Yi.
But while she kept reminding herself to stay calm, she'd done a lot of things she couldn't forgive … Like hugging Lin Yi, watching a movie with Lin Yi, and now she was naked with Lin Yi …
She didn't like Zhaolong, and she didn't like the marriage with House Kang, but her family had already agreed to it. She felt like she shouldn't be doing this. It felt like cheating, and it made her feel guilty!
But Xinyan had to admit that being with Lin Yi was very pleasurable. It was comfortable, and the occasional flirtatious moment, the heartbeat was unforgettable and satisfying. She even wished that she could be the desk mate of Lin Yi forever, never having to graduate, never having to face that marriage!
But unconsciously, Xinyan's heart was leaning more and more towards Lin Yi. She was getting more and more rebellious, and she didn't want to think about marriage anymore … But she knew that some things couldn't be changed. She was just lying to herself!
When Lin Yi displayed his extraordinary strength, and when she saw Lin Yi's followers getting stronger and stronger, even Elder Pi becoming Lin Yi's follower, Xinyan's heart was filled with anticipation!
The common Xiao family's support was the hidden House Pi, and now that the hidden House Pi had become Lin Yi's follower, it shouldn't be too hard for Elder Pi to talk to the Xiao family and cancel the marriage, right?
But Xinyan didn't think that Lin Yi's confession would come so quickly- it caught her off guard! From her point of view, she should at least break off the engagement before she could be with Lin Yi. Ever since she was young, she had always been an obedient girl, so she always felt that it was a crime to be with Lin Yi without breaking off the engagement. It made her feel a deep sense of guilt …
This was also the reason why she was stunned for a moment. She didn't know how to answer Lin Yi. Agree? Don't agree? Xinyan's heart was pounding furiously. She couldn't make up her mind, not knowing what to do …
Xinyan was a little taken aback. She really wanted to say yes to Lin Yi, but there were so many people in the room, especially in front of Mengyao and Yushu … She couldn't bring herself to just nod her head like that …
This seemed to be threatening Lin Yi. Did he say that because he wanted to be responsible for himself? Why else would he pretend to be asleep?
All of a sudden, Xinyan's heart was a mess. All sorts of things were rushing into her mind, making her feel dizzy. She wanted to run away, but somehow, Xinyan ran out of the villa, disappearing from everyone's line of sight … …
Lin Yi paused- it was easy for him to stop Xinyan, but if she were to leave now, did that mean she was rejecting him?
Lin Yi couldn't help but smile bitterly. He didn't know what Xinyan was thinking. Logically speaking, she should have feelings for him, right? Otherwise, why would she help him with his training so many times?
For a girl to make a sacrifice like this, it was enough to prove her feelings, but why did she run away all of a sudden?
"Shield Bro's confession failed …" Yushu was a little puzzled- Xinyan seemed to like Lin Yi, so why did it fail?
"Shu!" Mengyao glared at her. At this moment, Lin Yi was in a bad mood after his confession failed. Shu's words were like adding oil to the fire.
But she didn't know why, but Mengyao felt relieved. Was it because Xinyan didn't accept Lin Yi's confession? But why did she feel that it was a pity? Was it because she hoped that Lin Yi and Xinyan could be together?
Was it because of his promise to Tang Yun?
Old Pi and the others could see the awkwardness in the air as well- it was best if they didn't stay in the villa any longer, it wouldn't look good on Lin Yi. He cleared his throat. "Um … Zhishan, Zhihai, Chentian, Elder Wu, let's go for a stroll, the weather's nice today …"
Everyone responded, naturally understanding what Old Pi was thinking. It was indeed awkward for them to stay here, so it was best if they left!
Lin Yi didn't stop them, but before Chentian walked out, Lin Yi said, "Look after her, don't let anything happen to her …"
"Got it, boss!" Chentian understood immediately. Lin Yi didn't say it that clearly, but he knew that Lin Yi wanted him to keep an eye on Xinyan …
With a bitter smile, Lin Yi sat on the sofa with Yushu and Mengyao beside him.
"Shield Bro, you failed at hitting on the girl? Do you need Shu to analyze it for you?" Yushu asked.
"What do you know? Stop analyzing. "Mengyao interrupted." Go get me some water, I'm a little thirsty … "
"Oh … …" Yushu didn't look like she was unwilling this time- she stood up happily and walked towards the kitchen.
"Lin Yi, Xinyan's probably a little confused for a moment. It's not that she doesn't want to accept your confession." Mengyao was more attentive to details, and came to this conclusion after some thought. She wasn't too sure, but she was just trying to comfort him and make him feel better.
"It's fine, haha …" Lin Yi said with a smile. "I know …"
"Okay, it's good that you know. Don't be too disappointed- Xinyan actually likes you." Mengyao said. "What happened today was too sudden, I'd probably hesitate if you … Confess to me all of a sudden. Of course, if you confess a few more times, I'd probably say yes …"
"Okay …" Lin Yi nodded, not thinking much about it.
Disappointment flashed in Mengyao's eyes- did he really get it? He didn't seem to …
Yushu came back with a cup of tea and handed it to Lin Yi. "Right, Shield Bro, why were you looking for Xinyan sis?"
