Ch187 - Sometimes, he wanted to see Su Xuanyan (2/2)

Xue Ling didn’t quite know whether to laugh or cry. Could it be that Yin Jia felt that he was seducing him and making him like him because he was insecure and did not feel reassured, worried that he might be abandoned by the Marshal’s Palace at any time?

The idea was too funny. Xue Ling smiled and bent over, leaning into Yin Jia’s embrace as he laughed until tears came out.

Yin Jia petted his head, completely not understanding why he was acting like this. He rather anxiously wiped away the tears from the corners of Xue Ling’s eyes, and patted his back to coax him. Xue Ling laughed for a long time before finally stopping, his cheeks red from the strength of his laughter. He wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, then reached out and grabbed Yin Jia’s neck, leaning up to give him a fleeting dragonfly kiss.

“Father doesn’t dare to imagine that I would do this because I like you?” He hooked one arm around Yin Jia’s neck, his other hand coming up to touch his cheek. He lowered his gaze and spoke softly, “As the Marshal of the Empire, is father so insecure about his charm?”

Yin Jia was stunned, and then felt ecstatic as he finally reacted. His gaze was bright as he looked towards Xue Ling. “Yun’er?”

He seemed to want to confirm something with his words, but in exchange, Xue Ling gave him an affirmative kiss.

Xue Ling kissed him on the lips and laughed, “I thought you had thought things through. I never expected that your thoughts went down the wrong road. Such a simple thing as me liking you, is it really so hard to guess?”

Yin Jia shook his head and laughed in a low tone. “I am much older than you, and Yun’er’s thoughts are so difficult to guess. You’re so mysterious, how could it be easy for me to guess your thoughts?”

Xue Ling blinked, then hooked a finger under his chin. His red lips parted, “Then, does father believe it now?”

Yin Jia met his gaze for a long while, then finally opened his mouth and said, “As long as you say it, I believe it.”

Xue Ling sighed and complained, “Ultimately, you don’t believe me.” He harrumphed, then got up and sat down on Yin Jia’s body, reaching out to pluck at Yin Jia’s clothing.

Yin Jia caught his hand forcefully, shaking his head as he said, “Yun’er, no.”

Xue Ling grabbed at his hand and glared at him, then opened his mouth and bit him. “You’re going too far! Hey, you’ve already gained an inch but you want to take a mile, and you’re still refusing me so primly. Are you looking for a fight?”

Yin Jia laughed bitterly, “You’re so naughty. You haven’t even reached adulthood yet. Who taught you to be like this?”

“You.” Xue Ling began to speak seriously. “I’m fighting a heart-to-heart battle here. I’m certain that you already like me, but I’m not happy about being rejected twice tonight.”

Yin Jia looked at him again for a long time before saying, “It’s true that I like Yun’er, but Yun’er, why do you like me? Thinking back through the process of our acquaintance, unless you fell in love with me at first sight, you can’t explain all the things that you’ve done to me ever since you entered the Marshal’s Palace.”

Xue Ling rolled his eyes, then gave a quick-witted response, “Why can’t I fall in love with you at first sight?”

“It’s not that you can’t, but based on your proud personality, the probability is very low.” Yin Jia rubbed his head. “Since you’re able to make me willingly fall for you bit by bit, you’re naturally not some silly and sweet person. You are confident that I will like you, and then love you to the point where I cannot extricate myself, which is why you would do these things… Even now, I’m not very certain why my heart would be moved by you, but I’m very clear that my entire life will revolve around you. Even if it was calculated, even if you’ve cheated me, I have no regrets. But what are you doing this for?”

Xue Ling was silent for a while, his entire person lying on Yin Jia’s body. His movements were natural, as though he had done so countless times, his head rubbing against Yin Jia’s shoulder, acting like he wanted to be spoiled.

His voice was muffled, “Because you forgot me.”

Yin Jia clenched his fists tightly.

“I don’t believe that you can’t see the difference me and the original Helan Jiuyun. I’m not him at all. If it weren’t for me, the fate of Helan Jiuyun would not be what it is now. I travelled through so many worlds for you, but how come you always forget me?” He was rather depressed as he hammered a fist against Yin Jia’s chest. “Even if it’s a setting, I don’t like it anymore. I’m a bit tired of having to fall in love all over again in every world. I want to see you, and let you hold me…” It was rare for him to show weakness, and his pitiful appearance made others feel for him.

His expression of his emotions was so natural that it completely did not require any acting. This time, he seemed to be speaking to Yin Jia with his real emotions. “Hey, I know you’re there. Come out and clear up exactly what kind of relationship we have. How long is this game going to last?”

The arm that Yin Jia had wrapped around his waist tightened. Xue Ling could feel that he had bowed his head and was laughing gently against the crook of his neck. “Are you really unhappy, upset, and don’t like it? Or did you act out a drama simply because you wanted to lure me out?”

Xue Ling lifted his head up sharply, and looked incredulously at the man.

Yin Jia curved his lips and gave him a kiss, laughing as he said, “Didn’t you ask me to come out? Now that I’m here, why are you staring at me like that?”

For a moment, Xue Ling didn’t know what he should say.

He had genuinely been complaining, because when Yin Jia had asked him, his thoughts had turned and he inexplicably began to feel aggrieved. Although it was fun and interesting to spend his days pursuing each other like this, it was impossible not to get tired of it as it went on.

Sometimes he wanted to see Su Xuanyan, and learn about what he was really thinking…

But he hadn’t expected that he would be able to call the man out just by saying those words!!!

In that case, why the hell did he work so hard to seduce him?!!
