Chapter 428 - Was It Painful?

“Because of Ye Zhifan?” Xia Jinyuan could tell what she was talking about and raised his eyebrows slightly. “To you…”

Ye Jian didn’t want to talk about this. With her dark eyes, she gazed at him and interrupted gently, “Was it painful? Back then.”

Such a deep and wide scar, even if she was looking at it now, she could feel her back hurt.

“It didn’t hurt at that time, I just blacked out.” He brushed the topic off with a calm voice. The red light came on and Xia Jinyuan stopped the car. He held onto the steering wheel gracefully with one hand while he laid the other on the winded-down window. He looked at her frown and laughed softly, “I don’t have any impression of it now. The pain is gone. I’ll tell you if it hurts the next time I get an injury.”

Ye Jian’s face changed and she burst out, “Don’t say such things! Pfft! Touch-wood, touch-wood!”

Touch-wood?

Xia Jinyuan laughed brightly. His deep eyes were lit dimly as if there was a halo spreading out. Ye Jian’s heart suddenly pumped harder as she avoided his gaze.

Her heart was in a conflict, but her gaze was always somehow attracted to him. He was like the light. No matter how dangerous he was, he would attract those who had lived too long in the darkness.

It was already 1 am when they reached the school’s back door. Xia Jinyuan stood under the streetlamp and watched Ye Jian walked towards the back door. With his hands in his pocket, he looked at her entering the school and the smile in his eyes gradually faded away.

A chip. The little fox understood well that she needed to watch out for Ye Zhifan. Winning chips for herself was the right thing to do. But his heart hurt when Ye Jian had to deal with someone like Ye Zhifan at such a young age. She was living a tougher life than her peers.

Who is the one backing Ye Zhifan? It looks like he needs to investigate.

The car dashed fast and went straight to the hotel. Xia Jinyuan’s cell phone had vibrated a few times and he only returned the call when he got back to the hotel.

“Q King, when are you going to return after tomorrow’s holiday? We’re waiting for you in the Capital City.” Dressed in shorts and a sports t-shirt, J5 stood on the balcony of the military guest house and teased while holding an unlit cigarette in his mouth. “I heard someone mention your little fox in the meeting today. Not bad, the leaders are paying attention. What a bright future.”

Xia Jinyuan turned on the lights in the room and also the cell phone’s loudspeaker. While undressing, he said lazily, “Naturally. That’s the little fox that I fancy. I wanted to fight for her, but it was useless.”

“Are you bragging now?” J5 couldn’t get used to it. Everyone else was single. And it was only Xia Jinyuan who fancied a senior high student. “Remember, our love lives are all in your hands. Don’t just date and forget about us.”

Everyone from the Xueyu unit knew that Q King liked a senior high student named Ye Jian. Even Z7 said she was a good girl!

But she’s young and still in senior high.

But it was good that she’s young too. Otherwise, these twenty-six-year-old ‘elder’ comrades would not be able to take it!

There must not be any physical contact, Q King can only look and think about it!

“Let the brothers wait. Wait for my revolution to succeed.” After walking past the bathroom, Xia Jinyuan turned and looked at the scar on his lower back through the mirror… It was still okay, not that horrifying. The little fox seemed to be shocked.
