After Ye Kehuan lowered her eyes and said those words, she gradually moved away from Jiang Laien’s ears and watched her quietly, with seriousness in her eyes. Every word she said came from her heart. Her feelings for Jiang Laien had never been false, whether it was as a friend or an admirer. She just wanted to treat her well.
At that moment, Jiang Laien held her breath, then she couldn’t help but raise her hand to cover her lips, mist filling her eyes. Was this a dream or reality? Happiness came so suddenly that she didn’t even dare to believe that it all was true. She was afraid that those words were just illusions. With a little poke, the scene before her would disappear without a trace.
“You said you like me?” Jiang Laien took her hand away from her lips slightly.
“I love you,” Ye Kehuan nodded, her eyes gentle and hot, and she fixed on Jiang Laien’s body firmly, and finally spoke again, with a certain expectation in her voice, “Laien, do you like me, are you willing to accept me?”
After speaking, Ye Kehuan held her breath and waited quietly for her to answer.
Jiang Laien piety pinched her wrist, and then a layer of stars burst into her eyes. She wanted to say something, but her throat choked so hard she couldn’t say a word. Until she let out a long breath in her chest, raised her hand to cover her eyes, and suddenly started crying and laughing.
“Laien?” Ye Kehuan called her again.
Jiang Laien sniffled and dropped her hands, then nodded like a chicken pecking.
“Really?!” After Ye Kehuan saw her nodding, she was immediately as happy as a child who bought her favorite candy, even her eyes lit up.
Jiang Laien cried and twitched, sniffling, looking at her with a red nose, tears still fluttering in her eyes, unable to speak.
It had been so many years, she almost lost the courage to chase their relationship. Unexpectedly, just when she believed that she had no hope, the person she had only dared to look at from a distance finally turned her head and saw her, and walked over to her, telling her that she wanted to be with her. That was something Jiang Laien hadn’t even dared to think about for a long time.
“Laien…” Ye Kehuan turned her head and called her softly, choked up and frowned slightly.
At that moment, after Jiang Laien wiped away the tears that overflowed from her eyes again, she suddenly rushed over, hugged Ye Kehuan, grabbed the clothes on her back, and buried her face in her shoulders, voice full of anguish: “Idiot, I have liked you for a long time, do you think I would like this?!”
Ye Kehuan’s body became stiff and she listened to her words. After that, she hugged Jiang Laien, looked up at the ceiling, and slowly tightened her arms: “Sorry, I kept you waiting…”
“You’re such a bastard, you told me to fall in love with Zhou Yue, is your IQ a negative number?!” Inexplicably, the more Jiang Laien said, the more she cried, “You left me there and ran away. Are you so eager for me to be close with others?!”
It was rare for Jiang Laien to show such excitement in front of people, whether it was when they were kids or adults. Ye Kehuan was stunned by her words. Afterwards, she felt guilty again, and couldn’t help taking a deep breath, and buried her face in her shoulder: “Sorry, I’m a bastard, my IQ is negative.”
With that, Ye Kehuan hugged her tighter.
“Are apologies useful? If an apology is useful, then what do the police do?” Jiang Laien’s cry was very clear, and her tears continued to slide out, dripping onto the clothes on Ye Kehuan’s shoulders, bringing warmth and dampness to the clothing.
The person who she liked confessing to her should have been a very happy thing, but Jiang Laien still couldn’t help but feel wronged. Those emotions that she had kept in her heart for many years had been well hidden by her, but at that moment, they suddenly burst out like the mountains and seas. At that moment, she didn’t care about her own image anymore, she just vented it out in front of Ye Kehuan regardless.
In fact, Jiang Laien cried because of Ye Kehuan, not once or twice. The first time was probably on the first day that Ye Kehuan and Du Mingan confirmed their relationship.
That afternoon, she was still doing her math homework, when Ye Kehuan patted her arm, mysteriously approached her ear and said: “Laien, I’ll tell you, I’m finally in love too!”
At that time, Jiang Laien’s first feeling was that the sky was about to collapse, her brain was humming, and she was even a little dizzy. She couldn’t even hear what Ye Kehuan said later, but only vaguely heard the name Du Mingan. After that, she gave an “Oh” and did not make any comments. After class was over, she ran out of the classroom and squatted in a hidden corner of the campus, where she cried so loudly and waited until the class bell rang. She took out a tissue and wiped her eyes and went back to the classroom.
Ye Kehuan asked if she was crying, and she shook her head and denied that she was, just blinded by the sand. Then Ye Kehuan simply thought she was really blinded by some sand, and asked her if she wanted her to help, but she refused. Because she found that she couldn’t get along with Ye Kehuan calmly. The gentleness that Ye Kehuan gave her alone before was still there.
Then that night, Jiang Laien returned home without eating. After returning home, she fell into her bed and cried. She forgot about her homework. She cried intermittently for the whole night. At dawn the next day, when she walked into the bathroom with disheveled hair and looked in the mirror, she found that her eyes were so swollen that there was only a seam left. But when ye Kehuan asked her what was going on, she still shook her head, saying only that it was because of watching a tragic TV show the previous night.
That was also the first time Jiang Laien realized what it meant to feel heartache. Every day watching the person she liked playing ball, running, playing games and chatting about the world with others, it was really suffocating everywhere--extreme torment.
She really fell into Ye Kehuan’s hands.
Facing Jiang Laien’s appearance, Ye Kehuan froze for a few seconds before apologizing again: “I’m sorry.”
Jiang Laien sniffed and coughed, but her eyes were still foggy.
“Sorry, at that time, I did not have a clear mind. In fact, after I left, it was also very painful. For the first time, I started to think about what was the problem. Why I always want to take some intimate actions with you. Why can’t I see you go on a blind date…” Ye Kehuan sighed again when she said that. She still remembered the feeling of suffocation when she was walking down the road that day.
With her eyes down, Ye Kehuan rubbed the soft hair on the back of Jiang Laien’s head with her palm, and continued: “I thought about it for a long time, and then Lulu told me that I was like that because I like you. At that time, I still didn’t want to believe it, because I thought it was ridiculous. If you knew it, you would surely alienate me.”
Hearing that, Jiang Laien couldn’t help but squeeze her clothes tighter.
The corners of Ye Kehuan’s lips turned slightly upwards, and she continued to tidy up Jiang Laien’s hair: “Actually, the reason why I dressed you like that was to hope that the other party would look down on you, and then I would tell you about it when it was over. But I didn’t expect that things didn’t go as I expected. At the time, I said something like that, on the one hand, it was a bit of anger, because you said Zhou Yue was very good, and I was a little unhappy. On the other hand, I thought you were straight, and I thought you really liked that man. I thought, what kind of lightbulb and I, I have no right to intervene in your feelings.”
When Jiang Laien heard that, she suddenly hammered Ye Kehuan’s shoulder: “But I always ask if you like me, and you deny it. How do I know what you are thinking about…”
Ye Kehuan was shaken by her fist: “Sorry.”
“Big idiot, Ye Kehuan, you are really a big idiot!” Jiang Laien couldn’t help but yell out.
“Yes, I am a big idiot, then I will only be your big idiot next time. Will you forgive me this time?” Ye Kehuan nodded, patted her back and stroked her hair. She dared not justify herself.
Jiang Laien kept choking, but she didn’t cry crazily anymore.
Sometimes, people were very interesting, possessing many faces. For example, Jiang Laien, although she would always appear very calm in front of the public, even getting the title of “Buddha Goddess”, in front of Ye Kehuan, she couldn’t be such a Buddha. Her emotions were real.
After Ye Kehuan felt that her emotions seemed to have calmed down, she slowly let go of her, and stared at Jiang Laien, whose nose was red and her eyes were red.
“Look at what I’m doing.” Jiang Laien’s nose was blocked from crying too much earlier, a nasal bubble appearing in an instant.
It was too embarrassing. It was not more than ten minutes before that she became a couple with Ye Kehuan and she already made such a big fool of herself. She also wanted face. Jiang Laien was stunned for half a second, and hurriedly blocked her face with her hand, and in instantly she seemed to become a different person.
When Ye Kehuan saw it, she sighed, then smiled again, took out a tissue, leaned forward, and held her wrist: “Take it off.”
Jiang Laien listened, and then gradually put her hand down.”
Ye Kehuan looked at her flushed face, smiled again, then folded the issue and wiped the tears from her face: “Look at you, crying like this, as if I just did something bad to you.”
“It’s as if you didn’t do anything to be just now.” Jiang Laien looked at Ye Kehuan and gently pulled the issue from her hand, wiping her tears herself.
Ye Kehuan listened for a while, then raised her chin slightly: “So, what did I just do to you?”
“You,” Jiang Laien was immediately annoyed when she saw her look, “You don’t know what you did to me…”
“Oh, you mean, a kiss? But don’t you like me like that?” Ye Kehuan only felt that Jiang Laien, who was a little bit awkward and smiling at that moment, looked extremely cute.
“I’m too lazy to tell you! I’m going to boil water.” Jiang Laien was so ashamed that she was about to jump to her feet. After glaring at her, she stood up and walked quickly to the small kitchen next to them and picked up the electric kettle to boil water.
However, Jiang Laien had just filled the pot with water when she felt a small shadow coming from behind her. Jiang Laien was startled, before she could turn her head to look around, an arm wrapped around her waist. As soon as her back touched Ye Kehuan’s soft and warm embrace, Jiang Laien suddenly felt that countless ants were crawling on top of her skin, and only felt that her thinking became weird again, with her breathing speeding up.
“You,” Jiang Laien squeezed the electric kettle, turned her head sideways, and opened her lips slightly.
Ye Kehuan closed her eyes, tilted her head to her ear, and whispered: “I have been thinking about holding you generously like this for a long time.”
Jiang Laien’s body was small and soft. Ye Kehuan felt like she was holding a soft cloud. She couldn’t help but tighten her arms a little. Jiang Laien couldn’t help but loosen her grip on the electric kettle and move towards her, falling into her arms.
“Yes, was it?” Under Ye Kehuan’s lingering breath, Jiang Laien’s mind was full of numbness, and there was a burst of heat in her neck, which gradually spread all over her body.
“Yeah.” Ye Kehuan kissed her small and white earlobes, with a little nasal sound in her voice, which was particularly bewitching.
