Snowy Night Kiss

Chapter 70 Zhong Yili

Jian Yi slowly put down his knife and fork.

She felt that there should be a long story here, but it was obvious that Jin Yanchen was not prepared to tell her. He smiled indifferently, perhaps thinking of something in the past, and a cold expression suddenly appeared on his face.

It was just for a moment, and soon he was back to that gentle and indifferent look. He held a plump strawberry in his hand, picked off the leaves on top, and stretched out his hand to feed it to Jian Yi.

"Some people want to tear my bones apart and eat my flesh. You say everyone loves me, but that's because they fear and respect me and dare not touch me."

"This is the law of the world. The strong are feared, and the weak are bullied."

Jian Yi thought about this for a while, then suddenly looked at him with her bright eyes, "Are you pointing at me?"

"What do you want to ask?" Jin Yanchen chuckled, clasped his palms together, and leaned back. "I have walked ten years longer than you. I just want to tell you that there will be such helpless situations in life. When you grow up, one day you will get over it."

Step over it?

Jian Yi couldn't help but turn her gaze to his face. His eyes were always like the gentlest sea, and she was an isolated island on the sea.

I am willing to stay just for this sea.

Obviously, there are many questions that can be asked at this time. Maybe she can take the opportunity to pry into his past and ask him if he has ever been in a situation where he is powerless. Or she should ask Jin Yanchen, how can you be so sure that I can get through it?
However, in the end, Jian Yi just shook her head. She deliberately spoke in a light-hearted and joking tone, "Don't have too high expectations of me. In fact, I am very mediocre and ordinary."

Jin Yanchen raised his eyebrows and looked over with bright eyes, as if to say, who knows.

He stroked the agarwood beads on his wrist with his fingers, and said with a smile, "I, Jin Yanchen, have never lost when I bet."

Jian Yi's heart skipped a beat. When they returned to the eastern suburbs, Jin Yanchen easily took down her suitcase.

He turned his head and asked, "Is it okay to live here in the future?"

Jian Yi stopped walking.

It was already dusk, but the eastern suburbs were still bright and spacious. The two small Western-style buildings leaning against each other were still lit and noisy.

When the car stopped, the people inside happened to look over.

Countless sights were dim and unclear, as if a grand carnival was interrupted by her untimely appearance.

Jian Yi squinted her eyes, unable to open them due to the blinding white light. She lowered her head to look at her toes, thinking to herself -
To go in or not to go in?

Jin Yanchen walked into the front hall before her. As soon as he appeared, the crowd spontaneously formed a circle, holding their wine glasses to each other. The sound of the glasses colliding was crisp and pleasant, just enough to conceal their thoughts.

"When President Jin decided on this piece of land, I said it was a good location. I would like to congratulate you on your new home."

Housewarming?

Jian Yi frowned slightly.

She took two steps forward and heard Mo Yucheng talking beside Jin Yanchen. He still looked arrogant and complacent when he opened his mouth, and asked bluntly, "Yanchen, is it worth mobilizing such a large force for a woman?" Jian Yi still didn't understand where the term "mobilizing a large force" came from.

Mo Yucheng stood there and looked at her coldly. His eyes were full of hostility, and when he subconsciously looked behind her, he was a little absent-minded.

In the end, he just sneered, gave up the seat behind him, and said something irrelevant.

"Dongjiao has been built for many years and I haven't seen you celebrating it, but you insist on changing the name for no reason."

The crowd quieted down at this time.

Those scattered gazes gathered again and finally converged into a point and fell on her.

Only then did Jian Yi realize that she was the heroine of this carnival.

Her eyelashes trembled, and her confused gaze fell on the "culprit" opposite her.

Jin Yanchen put one hand in the pocket of his windbreaker. The night was pitch black. He stood in the brightest spot, like an illusory shadow.

Jian Yi's eyes flickered for a moment, and he saw him suddenly lean forward to reveal the metal nameplate embedded in the blue brick.

The history of Dongjiao came to an end at this moment. This villa standing in the bustling center of the city has a new name from today on.
-
Zhong Yili.

At this moment, Jian Yi thought, who cares about the secular class or the future. Her heart was beating like a rocket, her breathing was violent, and she ran over desperately. She thought, she was going to love this man like crazy.

Warm body temperature, cold fingertips, the moment they touched, she just wanted to hug him tightly.

As she wished, Jin Yanchen hugged her whole body, leaned close to her ear, and called her name slowly in a low voice.

He said, "This is my gift to you. From now on, this home will be completely yours."

"Its name is, Zhong Yili."

Jian Yi closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Her heartbeat was completely out of control. Every word he said in her ears was like a sudden surge of huge waves in the ocean. Her deserted island was tottering.

Tears blurred her vision, and Jian Yi tried hard to open her eyes to remember every frame. Their two beating hearts were so close to each other, and Jian Yi looked up at Jin Yanchen. He had a face with deep contours and a pair of gentle and affectionate eyes. Coldness and gentleness were always inappropriately intertwined on him, making her sober at one moment and indulge in desire at another.

Finally, she could only hold his face helplessly: "Can you not be just a passer-by in my life?"

This was an extremely pious gesture. No matter what happened in the future, at this moment, Jian Yi really wanted to have a long future with him.

Just like the meaning given to it by Jian Yili, she hopes that this will not only be her home, but also their common home.

Jin Yanchen was silent for a moment, then wiped away the tears from her eyes with his fingertips. He would never make any unknown promises lightly, but at this moment, seeing the tears hanging from the corners of her eyes, he inexplicably felt a helpless sigh in his heart.

While sighing, he gently pinched her chin with his other hand, kissed her eyelids lightly, and said in a voice that Jian Yi could not resist:
"But at least, I think you won't just be a passer-by in my life."
