Chapter 114
She Is From The Countryside
114 only the pounding of the heart
shi yan didnât react for a long time when he suddenly pulled her into his arms.
When he finally reacted, he had an inexplicable feeling of not knowing where to put his hands.
it was not because she was shocked by his sudden action, nor was it because she could not accept his sudden hug. it was because she could feel his strong feelings for her from just one hug.
This was what made her feel helpless.
because she wasnât sure if her next little sound or action would stimulate a certain nerve of his, and it would go out of control.
it was too sudden, and she was not mentally prepared.
Letting him hold her, she didnât dare to move or make a sound.
in the silent night, lights and shadows embraced each other silently, leaving only the pounding of their hearts.
The hug lasted for almost three minutes before Shi Yan felt the arms around her slowly loosen.
Taking half a step back, Jiang che said, â I havenât seen miss Shi for a few days. I couldnât help myself. Iâm sorry.
shi yan raised her head slightly to look at him. because she was close to him and she had adapted to the dark environment for a while, she could see his face clearly when she looked up.
He was elegant, refined, calm, and gentle.
there was no trace of the strong emotions he had earlier.
âitâs fine,â She said.
with a peaceful and beautiful smile.
â why did teacher jiang suddenly come? â
âauntie shen made some pastries and sent them over. i thought that miss shi would like to eat them, so i had nothing to do, so i brought them over for you.â
he had no intention of returning to the car to give her the cake.
however, when shi yan heard his words, the smile on her face deepened. Thank you, Mr. Jiang. Iâve troubled aunt Shen again. Please thank her on my behalf.
âYes.â Jiang che responded faintly.
Shi Yan smiled and looked at him. itâs rare for Mr. Jiang to come here. The dormitory building will only be locked at 11:30. Why donât I walk around the school with Mr. Jiang? â
In the dark night, Jiang Cheâs lips seemed to curl up.
âAlright,â he said.
Then, he looked straight into her eyes. He opened his mouth slightly, and his eyes were filled with a little affection.âIâd like to spend more time with miss Shi too.â
sure enough, after confessing, he was different. even his words were so straightforward.
Shi Yanâs cheeks were slightly flushed, but fortunately, the light was dim, so it was not obvious.
âLetâs go, teacher Jiang.â She turned around first.
Jiang che looked at her back view as she fled in panic. His eyes couldnât help but fill with a smile as he followed her.
The campus was still very lively after 10 pm.
although there werenât as many people walking around as there were during the day, you could still meet people after walking a few steps. some walked in groups of twos and threes, some carried their backpacks and books alone, rushing from the self-study room and library to the dormitory, and some young couples walked hand in hand.
The two of them walked side by side on the dimly lit road, with only less than 30 centimeters between them. They were very close.
it was probably because their looks and temperament were too outstanding that even at night, people passing by could not help but stop and take a few more glances at them.
Of course, they each had their own things to do, so they only looked at it for a while and left, not affecting the two of them much.
they were just taking a stroll, so they didnât walk fast.
after walking for a while, shi yan slightly raised her head and looked at jiang che. â âDid Mr. Jiang come directly from the Jiang family?â
âYes.â He should be monotonous, but not cold.
He looked back at her as he replied.
At that moment, he seemed to only have eyes for her.
âthen didnât you drive for another two hours?â
âitâs fine,â He said, â I donât have much to do anyway.
his gaze fell back on her face. â besides, i can see miss shi. itâs worth the journey no matter how far it is. â
Shi Yan was stunned at first, but then she turned her head to the side and smiled.
she laughed and he did not disturb her. his gaze fell on her exquisite side profile, deep and gentle.
after walking for a while, shi yan saw a food stall not far away and couldnât help but ask,âmr. jiang, did you eat before you came? Do you want to eat something?â
âI came over after eating, so Iâm not hungry. Miss Shi, do you want to eat something? iâll go with you.â
âI donât have the habit of eating at night,â Shi Yan said with a faint smile and shook her head.
As soon as he said that, he suddenly thought of something and added, â âDidnât teacher Jiang bring me some desserts? if youâre hungry, iâll just go back to the dormitory and eat a few pastries later.â
he had specially brought her some desserts, but she said that she did not have the habit of eating at night. he might be disappointed.
she naturally did not want him to be disappointed.
Perhaps he had read her mind, but Jiang Cheâs gaze stopped on her face for a few seconds before he said, â âthatâs good.â
as they were talking, two girls who were chasing each other ran over. shi yanâs attention was on jiang che, and she was suddenly bumped.
as soon as he staggered, he felt a tight grip on his waist. jiang zhi had pulled him over.
âAre you alright?â he lowered his head and asked.
Shi Yanâs entire body was wrapped in his arms and she leaned against him. Her nose was filled with his elegant bamboo-like breath and she was a little out of it. âIâm, Iâm fine.â
The girl who had bumped into her was about to apologize when she was stunned by Jiang che.
the other girl who was chasing her reacted first. â âiâm sorry, are you hurt? Iâm really sorry.â
he patted the girl beside him, and the girl also said, â âiâm sorry, iâm really sorry.â
Jiang che still didnât let go of Shi Yan, and he didnât seem to have any intention of responding to the two girls. Shi Yan could only look up at the two girls from his arms and smile.âiâm fine.â
The two girls were stunned by her again.
she apologized again in a daze and then left.
When they were far away, they couldnât help but exclaim.
There were outstanding people everywhere in the school. They had seen many good-looking boys and girls, but it was rare to see one as good-looking as this. oh, it shouldnât be just their looks. the main reason why they were so stunning at first sight was because of their temperament.
They were good-looking and had a good temperament. Most importantly, they were a couple!
It was hard not to be amazed.
However, Shi Yan didnât pay attention to how they were amazed.
all her attention was on jiang che and his hand around her waist.
âmr. jiang?â
only then did jiang che let go of her.
âAre you alright?â he asked.
âIâm fine.â Shi Yan smiled and shook her head.
âIs there any place in your school that has fewer people? there are too many people on this road, and the light at night is relatively dark, so itâs easy to bump into people.â
Shi Yan looked at him in surprise. Seeing that he looked normal, she replied, â yes, there is a stone path to the left about 100 meters ahead. there are usually fewer people on that path. â
there were even fewer people at night because it was dark.
there were only street lights after a long distance, which was no different from no street lights.
âThen weâll take that path later.â he said.
shi yan glanced at him and nodded in response.âAlright,â he said.
The two of them walked for about a hundred meters and saw a small path to the left.
There was a section of stone steps.
at the end of the stone steps, the stone path was just in sight. the shadows of the trees on both sides blocked the surrounding streetlights. it was very dark, and he could only vaguely see the outline of the stone path.
the two of them walked down the stone steps. just as they reached the end of the stone steps and were about to step on the stone path, shi yan felt someone grab her wrist.
