at six o’clock, the setting sun withdrew its last sunlight. the flaming light was overwhelmed by layers of clouds.nôv(el)b\\jnn
as the summer vacation began, the provincial no.1 middle school seemed especially quiet in the setting sun. by the bank of the swan lake, two pairs of ducks stayed among the water plants, cuddling each other with their necks and enjoying the tranquil time.
ye jian walked out the school, opened the car door and sat in the car... it was precisely six o’clock.
xia jinyuan had a mixed feeling about her punctuality.
she arrived neither earlier nor later than six o’clock. was she so reluctant to spend one more minute with him?
“but what if i want to arrive earlier to wait for you?” xia jinyuan stopped the car before the pedestrian crossing, waiting for the green traffic light. he tilted his head. as he saw the calm look on ye jian’ s face, he slightly raised his eyebrows. “do you want to turn the air-conditioner a bit cooler? you seem... very hot.”
of course, she was hot! to arrive on time, she ran all the way here. the weather was still hot, even after the sunset!
not to mention that the man sitting next to her always said something that could lead to misunderstandings. as a grown woman, wasn’t it normal for her to feel awkward?
ye jian could not get rid of her awkward feeling—which would occur to her every time they met—until she reminded herself several times that the man was 20 years of age.
as she calmed down, her facial expressions became brighter. the instant the green traffic light lit up, ye jian turned around to smile at xia jinyuan, who was releasing his masculine charms. “of course, i feel hot because i ran all the way here. what can i do? i can’t let you leave without me, captain xia.”
her smile was gorgeous and refreshing as a blooming flower. the beauty in her black eyes dwarfed the rosy clouds in the sky.
xia jinyuan was caught off guard. her smile, along with her “what can i do” jumped into his eyes. they even seemed to have imprinted in his mind.
“captain xia, if you don’t drive, the traffic police might come over.” his bewilderment made ye jian smile. there was a subtle smile in her black eyes. tut! she could play using his tricks, all right?!
