Chapter 129: Men, the Natural Predators

At six o’clock, the setting sun withdrew its last sunlight. The flaming light was overwhelmed by layers of clouds.

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?

“You arrived precisely on time. Aren’t you afraid that we might be delayed by something on our way there?” Xia Jinyuan started the car, smiling. He asked Ye Jian, who was still wearing her school uniform, “Ye Jian, you have arrived on time for three consecutive days. Do you hate me so much that you don’t want to spend one more minute with me?”

Likewise, she only said “thank you and goodbye” to him when they came back. As she alighted the car, she left chicly without looking back.

On the first day, he expected that she would turn around and wave at him after she entered the school gate. On the second day, he expected she would show up ten minutes earlier. On the third day… he held no expectation.

He would have suffered a heartache if he disputed with this insensitive girl.

Sometimes, Xia Jinyuan’s smiles were as faintly indiscernible as a subtle ripple but also mysterious like a deep and unfathomable ancient well.
