C211 (1/2)
The morning light penetrated the layers of the sea of clouds, shining through the courtyard and coated the incomparably gorgeous youth with a faint layer of golden light.
Wen Jiu was so shocked that she even forgot to rub her eyes.
A long time later.
Only then did she ask in a small voice, ”Am I dreaming, or is elder brother sleepwalking?”
Xie Heng stood blankly on the spot, and only after blowing for a long time did he finally manage to calm down.
The youth's face stiffened, his jade-white face became slightly pale. ”Jiu …”
His voice was low and the expression in his amber eyes was extremely complicated.
”What's wrong, brother?” Wen Jiu was a little shocked. After knowing Xie Heng for so long, he thought that was born unruly and frivolous, that he was not even afraid of the sky collapsing.
This was the first time she had seen this youth.
”Jiu.” Xie Heng's finger tightly gripped onto the wooden window. Only then did he manage to find a normal voice, and ask her softly: ”If the person from that night came back to marry you, Jiu … Are you willing? ”
”What is elder brother saying?” Wen Jiu was unable to make any turns, and extended his hand to probe the youth's forehead.
He did not get hot.
He didn't know why he was sweating so much.
The youth's handsome face had almost lost all color. His hand that was holding onto the hanging window was green and white on his knuckles. Clearly, something was wrong.
Wen Jiu asked somewhat guiltily: ”Did I do something wrong after getting drunk yesterday? Elder brother, why are you suddenly saying this? ”
Xie Heng looked at her silently.
She turned around, planning to go out and have a good talk with him, but just as she took a step, Xie Heng suddenly jumped through the window and pulled her over to him, buttoning her up against the window.
The youth's arm was pressed against the wooden window, imperceptibly locking him within his embrace, half hugging him. ”No, you didn't do anything wrong! It was me! Jiu, don't go … ”
Wen Jiu was suddenly unable to move under the pressure of his actions.
In the early summer, a light breeze blew past the window, creating a beautiful scenery.
Both of them were wearing light clothes, and the moment Wen Jiu woke up, his clothes were even more messy.
The two of them were so close that she could clearly feel the young man lose control of his emotions. His chest rose and fell, and his body temperature spread to her through her thin clothes. Even breathing became difficult.
Xie Heng clenched his teeth, looked at her with deep and serene eyes, and said each word: ”Wen Jiu, I'll marry you, and I'll only love you for my entire life. Are you willing?”
”I …” Wen Jiu was suddenly at a loss what to do.
Although she had never married anyone, nor had she ever fallen in love with anyone who wanted to live or die, she knew that normal men would not have such an appearance if they wanted to marry the one they loved.
Xie Heng was very curious today.
Moreover, she wanted to pamper this peerlessly beautiful youth and bring everything she had to him.
The only thing he had never thought of was marrying him.
Living under the same roof, he was rarely seen. It was unknown when this young man had already harbored such thoughts in his mind.
Wen Jiu didn't know how to respond.
Xie Heng, I am your sister-in-law, you cannot like me.
— — I raised you because … I know you will have power in the future. I just want to keep my life.
Or perhaps, you will meet even more beautiful girls in the future. Don't think that you like them just because I treat you well …
Thousands upon thousands of words.
However, she couldn't say a single word when she saw the youth's eyes.
Xie Heng lowered his eyes, his warm lips almost touching hers, ”Jiu, you treat me so well, so it's only a little better. Try to like me, okay?”
Wen Jiu wanted to retreat further, but a wooden window was right behind him.
Her entire body was tense. There was no way out.
”Eldest brother …” The moment Wen Jiu opened her mouth, Xie Heng immediately lowered his head and kissed her, stopping her from continuing her actions.
Young Master Xiao Yao, who had been in the Windy Moon Stadium for so many years, carefully and gently dragged her into the whirlpool.
