If someone were present to hear what Si Yi said, they would definitely be flustered right now. Si Yi’s words were simply begging to be misunderstood.
“Nonsense.” Staying in Si Yi’s embrace, Yun Jian felt his warmth and the slight rise of temperature.
As it was, Si Yi was only saying. He really held himself back from doing anything to Yun Jian.
Pressing her lips together, Yun Jian snuggled in Si Yi’s hold with her face against his chest. Her eyes were tinged with a contented smile.
It was not a sarcastic smile. Her smile came genuinely from the bottom of her heart because of the joy she felt.
Feeling a weight on her head as she was curled up within his arms, Yun Jian could feel Si Yi’s hand on it before he rubbed it gently like he was treating something precious to him.
…
Yun Jian had no driver’s license.
Road safety was becoming more standardized now. Although it was not as regulated as the modern times, it was satisfactory for 1999. Traffic police patrolled randomly as well, so Yun Jian had Si Yi drive her to be safe. They called for Yun Yi too when they were about to leave.
Seated at the backseat of the Lamborghini sports car where space was limited, Yun Yi did not feel cramped at all. All he could think of was meeting Qing You—there was no more room for other thoughts.
“Are we there yet? Have we arrived at the train station?” Yun Yi stuck his head forward to look left and right like he was in some kind of hurry.
“Not yet, soon.” Yun Jian pressed her lips into a small smile.
When they arrived at the train station, Yun Yi asked to get off first before they could park their car. Yun Jian then accompanied Si Yi to park it.
Cars were not common during this era and they were even rarer at the train station.
Yun Jian, keeping Si Yi company, managed to find the parking lot swiftly. After they locked the car and went to where Yun Yi went off, Yun Yi was already returning to the spot pulling Qing You’s suitcase for her.
“Sister Jian!” Qing You tossed her backpack to Yun Yi and dashed toward Yun Jian once she saw her.
Receiving a handful of the girl, Yun Jian gave Qing You a full embrace and asked with an amused smile, “How have you been doing at home recently?”
“Great.” Having slipped out of Yun Jian’s hug, Qing You answered as she picked up the backpack she had thrown to Yun Yi just now and hooked armed with Yun Jian to continue their walk with a grin.
Yun Yi who stood at the back and helped to carry bags once he got off the car was speechless. His gaze dimmed and he felt like crying. Why did Qing You not run to him just now like how she had hugged Yun Jian?
With one hand holding Qing You’s suitcase, Yun Yi rubbed his head with another hand and gave up thinking about it when he failed to figure it out.
The four of them departed to Ge Junjian’s house directly.
By the time they arrived there, they met a guy with short black hair going toward Ge Junjian’s house as well. Yun Jian did not see the guy and had not paid attention initially but when she unintentionally caught a glimpse, she recognized the face. It was…
“Ge Xuan-ge?”
Yun Yi and Ge Xuan had met before. Not too long ago, both of them had become close with each other. Seeing him now, Yun Yi nearly froze from the surprise before he called out in bewilderment.
Ge Xuan who had colorful hair and looked like a typical delinquent in the past had now re-dyed his short hair black. From his back, he already looked cool and lofty. In addition to his handsome face, he did not pale in comparison to Yun Yi’s good looks.
