Chapter 93 The Beast’s Eyes

Ji Fanyin's smart eyes turned in a circle intelligently and slightly cunningly. Ji Fanyin answered with a smile in a joking tone:

"From the day I ended my unrequited love."

Shui Qingchen glanced at her unexpectedly.

Ji Fanyin happened to look up as well.

Their eyes met again.

The surprise in his eyes made Ji Fanyin doubtful.

What's wrong with her?

Shui Qingchen moved his eyes away from her face, with a deep smile in his eyes, and said warmly:
"People often say that when you risk your life for someone, that's when you are in love. But you are different."

Ji Fanyin:
"What do you mean by that?"

Shui Qingchen smiled slightly:
"When will you stop taking risks and wandering around for a person, and then you will be truly moved?"

Ji Fanyin was stunned and asked almost subconsciously:
"you do not believe me?"

"Then are you willing to stop taking risks and wandering around for me? Will you stay with me and guard the sea until your hair is gray and your temples are gray?"

After speaking, he looked into Ji Fanyin's eyes.

His eyes were obviously filled with a heartwarming smile as usual, but for some reason, at this moment, Ji Fanyin felt an invisible pressure on his shoulders.

Ji Fanyin's lips moved slightly, and she wanted to speak, but couldn't.

Shui Qingchen's eyes quickly passed by her frowning and thoughtful face, and he didn't ask any more questions.

Ji Fanyin stood in the busy market, staring at Shui Qingchen's majestic back as he walked further and further away.

Just when he thought he was about to disappear into the crowd in the next second, he suddenly stopped!

The heartbeat suddenly paused for a beat.

Ji Fanyin unconsciously clenched her little hands and bit her lips stubbornly.

At this moment, Shui Qingchen, who should have walked away long ago, turned around.

His deep black eyes looked at her through the endless flow of people...

That glance was like a feather, crossing the tip of my heart.

Ji Fanyin's eyes were sore for some reason, and she saw clearly the waiting and hope in his eyes.

He... still remembers that she would get lost, was he waiting for her to follow?
No one has ever waited for her.

there has never been.

Father, mother, Aru, they would only tell her that if she fell, she had to get up by herself. If she wanted to cry, she had to raise her head by herself, swallow her tears, and don't let them see her.

Only he, only Chenchen, would tell her to cry if she wanted to, and to make trouble if she wanted to. Even her bad temper, he would take it seriously and encourage her not to be patient.

Ji Fanyin gritted her teeth and took faster and faster steps, rushing through the crowd and rushing towards him.

"Dust!"

Her fingertips were trembling as she grabbed the hem of his clothes.

Shui Qingchen's handsome face was stunned for a moment, showing a surprised look.

Ji Fanyin's impulse to risk everything became hesitant under his gaze.

Her little hands slid down a little bit along the hem of his clothes.

Shui Qingchen's eyes were dark and his long eyelashes trembled slightly.

Her eyes were burning with shocking and irresistible sincerity, her breathing was a little heavy, and she looked anxious, and her thin shoulders were trembling slightly.

He lowered his cheeks and stared at her face. When he was about to speak, her little hand slid down and suddenly grabbed his arm.

Shui Qingchen's heart trembled for an instant, as if it wasn't just her arms that were caught by her.

Ji Fanyin was even more nervous than him. She was afraid that if she missed this moment, she would never be able to say these words again:
"No one has ever given me a chance to choose. Today, I am willing to give you a chance to choose. Chenchen."

She didn't dare to raise her head or look into his eyes, her slightly trembling voice revealed uneasiness.

That kind of uneasiness is the panic that one feels towards the unfamiliar self when he realizes that he has changed for someone:
"Chenchen, if...if I say, I am willing to accompany you to guard the sea, I am willing to accompany you, my black hair turns gray, I am willing to watch the moon set and the stars move with you. Sooner or later, you will know , at this moment, what did I give up for you, what did I... give up."

She didn't give him time to answer and continued:
"Even so...even so, can't you believe my intention, or...can't you?"

The bustling street corners and the flowing crowds seemed to slowly fade away, and the turmoil of the world also disappeared.Ji Fanyin allowed her heartbeat to beat faster and faster, but then she discovered that the chaotic and fast heartbeat was not just hers.

She hesitated for a moment, then suddenly gained the courage to raise her head, wanting to see if his expression was as uneasy as hers.

I haven't seen his face yet, but I can only catch a glimpse of the corners of his lips, drawn into lines as hard as iron.

At this moment, Feng Xiaoyao's surprised voice sounded.The bustling sounds around them instantly broke the atmosphere between the two of them and brought them back to reality.

"Brother Qingchen!!" Feng Xiaoyao's face was frozen in shock, as if he had seen a very terrifying scene.

The next second, Shui Qingchen and Ji Fanyin turned their faces away at the same time.

The two were silent for a while, and neither one spoke.

Shui Qingchen: "Let's go..."

Ji Fanyin: "Well..."

Neither of them looked at each other.

Shui Qingchen turned around, took long strides, and walked forward.

The moment Ji Fanyin raised her foot, she hesitated. After waiting for a while, she took her foot forward, keeping a distance of not too close and not too far, and followed slowly.

Feng Xiaoyao also looked a little strange. He walked beside Ji Fanyin, his eyes full of confusion, and kept moving back and forth between Ji Fanyin and Shui Qingchen.

After a while, Ji Fanyin calmed down, turned around, and saw Feng Xiaoyao hesitating about speaking, with an unnatural look on his face, and asked:

"What did you scream just now? You looked frightened. What did you see?"

Looking across a sharp dark light, Ji Fanyin asked cautiously and tentatively.

Feng Xiaoyao looked sideways at her, first hissed, took a breath of cold air, then exhaled a long breath, and said in a tone of self-doubt:
"Just now... on Brother Qingchen's face, I seemed... as if..."

He frowned, thought for a long time, and finally thought of an appropriate description:

"I seemed to see the eyes of a wild beast."

The tension in Ji Fanyin's heart relaxed for a moment, her black eyes stared at his face with a half-smile, and joked:

"The hurt look in the little beast's eyes?"

Hearing this, Feng Xiaoyao glared at her angrily, knowing that she didn't believe him:

"No! It really looks like a beast, very scary!"

"Terrible?" Ji Fanyin smiled disapprovingly.

The person I'm more afraid of is probably her.

Ji Fanyin looked forward.

The inner impulse has calmed down.

However, it was precisely after she calmed down that she could more clearly feel the changes that had quietly occurred deep in her heart.

She is no longer so innocent towards him, she only covets his appearance.

The evidence is that in the streets, the crowds are like mountains and seas.

But she could catch his figure at a glance.

She thought there was no need to deny it.

She fell in love with him.

With a gentle sweep of her curled eyelashes, Ji Fanyin smiled.

"Why are you laughing?" Feng Xiaoyao asked in confusion.

Ji Fanyin looked sideways at him, the smile dancing in her eyes making people go numb.

this look...

Isn't that what he saw in Shui Qingchen's eyes just now!

Feng Xiaoyao was thinking in shock when she heard Ji Fanyin say in a careless voice:

"You called me a crazy girl. I was crazy about you once, but this time, how much time will it take for me to cool down this madness?"

　Merry Christmas~~~
