Chapter 883 - How Can I Die When I Haven't Won Your Heart Yet?
Ye Shaoguang stared at Ji Mianmian’s back and mumbled. “How can I die when I have yet to win your heart?”
Ji Mianmian was absentminded throughout the journey and snapped out of confusion only after she walked out of the detention center.
Ji Mianmian turned around abruptly but Ye Shaoguang was nowhere to be seen.
Yan Qingsi pressed the car horn and yelled, “Get in the car…”
Dazed and confused, Ji Mianmian entered the car.
“Did you see him just now?”
“Yes.”
“How was he?”
“He…should be…fine?” Ji Mianmian licked her lips and savored the warmth that lingered around her mouth.
Ji Mianmian scratched her head in annoyance at her own incompetence. Dang it, she did not even inquire about Ye Shaoguang’s condition in the detention center.
However, no one would feel fine in that sort of place, right?
Ji Mianmian let out a heavy sigh. Something peculiar was going on with her today, but she had no clue to describe the strange sensation that was bothering her.
Ye Shaoguang kissed her multiple times previously too, but this time… This time… It felt different. There was no direct connection between their lips, and yet she could feel the tumultuous thudding of her heartbeat even at this instant.
Yan Qingsi noticed Ji Mianmian’s inattentive state and decided to drive the car herself.
After shifting to the driver seat and starting the engine, Yan Qingsi asked, “Mianmian, what happened to you?”
Ji Mianmian lifted her head and glanced at Yan Qingsi. “Sis, I… I don’t know what happened to me too…”
Yan Qingsi sighed in response. Perhaps Ye Shaoguang had taken down the first line of defense in Ji Mianmian’s heart after all.
Yan Qingsi asked, “What were you thinking when you saw Ye Shaoguang?”
“Nothing… I was just thinking that…a person like him shouldn’t live such a life.”
Ji Mianmian always had the impression that Ye Shaoguang was as beautiful as a lady, cold and noble. Anyone who engaged in conversations with him would feel inferior for some inexplicable reason. Thus, Ji Mianmian figured that such a man actually belonged to the upper class of the society and that they were never birds of a feather, to begin with.
Yan Qingsi smiled. “Who deserves to live such a life?”
“Will you be sad if he was sentenced to life imprisonment?”
“Yes…” Ji Mianmian nodded without the slightest hesitation.
“Why?”
Ji Mianmian shook her head in response. “I don’t know why, but I know I’ll feel sad when that happens. Perhaps, I’ve considered him as a friend since he has given me free food, drinks and even a place to stay. To be honest, other than a bad temper…he is actually a good man.”
Yan Qingsi smiled and kept quiet.
Just a friend, huh?
Well, Ji Mianmian had to understand her feelings all by herself in the future.
Most of the time, people were expected to be bystanders in various situations, and only two participants were allowed in a love story. The others? Absolutely not!
…
Yan Qingsi woke up early the next morning to attend Ye Lingzhi’s funeral.
In fact, she woke up much earlier than usual. Yue Tingfeng watched as she went through her basic skincare routine before putting on make-up in front of the mirror.
An hour later, she turned around and asked Yue Tingfeng, “How do I look?”
Yue Tingfeng pouted and got out of the bed. “What are you trying to do with such a coquettish style? Who do you want to hook up with?”
Yan Qingsi made eyes at Yue Tingfeng and replied, “It’ll be extremely easy for me to hook up with any man even if I don’t have make-up on. Shall we head out for an experiment if you don’t believe me?”
Yue Tingfeng quickly rejected the offer. “No thanks. I don’t think that’s necessary. It’s very troublesome, ain’t it… Besides, it’s inappropriate to be late for a funeral, right? Let’s head downstairs for breakfast.”
