His face was covered with clothes and when he breathed, he could smell the natural fragrance from Ye Jian’s body.
He always had the habit of putting clothes or towels on his face when he was sleeping to block the light. He didn’t know when he placed little fox’s clothes on his face. No wonder he slept so soundly.
“Ye Jian, are you awake?”
The voice of a young man came from outside the door. He had already gone through his voice-changing stage so his voice was clean and deep like a youth. Even from the voice, Xia Jinyuan could tell that the man’s appearance was not bad.
Xia Jinyuan laid on the bed and didn’t want to move. He didn’t dare to move either… He was afraid that when he stood up, Ye Jian would open the door… There would be a huge misunderstanding.
“Ye Jian isn’t awake yet?” Some students walked passed and asked Yang Heng casually.
Xia Jinyuan heard the young man laughing and replying, “Nope. I’m calling for her to have breakfast. You don’t have to wait for me. Go down and have your meal first.”
The door of the washroom opened. Ye Jian was holding the dried shirt as she walked out. When she hung up the shirt, she unconsciously leaned her body forward to see if she had alerted the man that was sleeping on the bed.
She saw Xia Jinyuan lifting the blanket. Ye Jian quickly hung the clothes and said in a soft voice, “Did I wake you up?” He had slept for around six hours. If it was a deep sleep, it was enough rest for a special forces soldier that was used to high-intensity training.
Xia Jinyuan didn’t say anything. He woke up from a deep sleep so the moment he opened his eyes, he felt extremely refreshed and energetic. There was no tiredness in his clear gaze. He didn’t seem as if he slept for a few hours. Instead, he looked as though he had been exercising for the past hours.
Now, his clear and sharp gaze was fixed on Ye Jian. They were calm and deep like an ancient well. As Ye Jian spoke, waves started appearing on the surface of the well, layer by layer. Lights were shimmering in the well too.
Ye Jian was curious about why he was staring at her. She frowned and asked, “What are you looking at? Why are you being so weird?”
What was he looking at?
Naturally, Xia Jinyuan was looking at Ye Jian. At this time, there was only Ye Jian in his eyes.
He knew that his little fox was not bad, no, she wasn’t just not bad. The first time he saw her, she amazed him with her beauty.
Her beauty wasn’t just on the surface. It was a kind of beauty that settled down through time and reflected her modest personality. Her personality was good too. She was strong enough to persevere through hardships.
This already beautiful lady suddenly changed into a bohemian-style flower dress and stood in front of him prettily. The peony sewn on the dress was exquisite and beautiful but now, it became a flower that was used to bring out her beauty. It allowed her to become the lady that walked out among the blooming flowers, bringing along with her a refreshing and enchanting aura as she suddenly appeared and mesmerized him for life.
The amazement lasted in his heart for a long while. He said, “Looking at you. I’m looking at you.”
I’m looking at you, with you in my eyes, nobody else exists in it.
I’m looking at you, placing you in my heart, and carving you upon it.
His gaze slowly moved down from her smile and landed on her slender and thin waist that looked as though it would break any moment. Xia Jinyuan smiled slightly and continued, “I saw a little fox that had become a demon. She’s so beautiful that she makes my heart palpitate.”
“Xia Jinyuan!” His directness caused Ye Jian’s white and jade-like skin to turn slightly pink as though they were tinted with peach blossoms. She glared at the man that started teasing her the moment he woke up. Then, she turned and prepared to take out the military uniform that she just hung up.
