Capítulo 2100: Chapter 2099: Aggrieved
Jing Xiaocha’s expression froze.
Thankfully it was nightti, the light in the compartnt was dim, so he probably couldn’t see her expression clearly.
“Brother Wen, I’m not making up lies, nor am I wronging myself. I’m an adult now; dating and relationships are perfectly normal.”
“But you’re still young, there’s no need to rush into a relationship. You should enjoy the freedom of single life and focus on your creativity.”
What Wen Jin said was the most genuine thought in Jing Xiaocha’s heart.
She actually thought the sa, that she was still young, and if she could date soone she liked, it would be a blessing.
But if it wasn’t with soone she liked, she really wasn’t at the point of compromising for marriage.
“Of course, I’m focusing my energy on my creations. Little Hui is about to take exams, and I’m thinking of taking him on a trip once he’s done, to find inspiration.”
Jing Xiaocha forced a light smile, not wanting the atmosphere to beco so heavy.
Wen Jin’s eyes deepened slightly, “What did Yihan say to you?”
“Brother Wen, you don’t think my holiday plans have sothing to do with Sister Ou, do you?”
Jing Xiaocha looked at Wen Jin with amusent.
“If you don’t want to guess randomly, just tell the truth.”
Wen Jin gazed deeply at her, recalling a scene from the night before last.
Back then, Jing Xiaocha had also been sitting in the passenger seat like this, but the difference was that she’d been drunk and unaware that night.
But tonight, she was completely sober, and not just sober, but lying.
Jing Xiaocha lowered her gaze, avoiding Wen Jin’s scrutinizing eyes, “Sister Ou really didn’t say anything, don’t misunderstand her.”
“Xiaocha, I haven’t known Yihan for long, so maybe I don’t understand her well enough.”
Wen Jin’s voice was low and slow, without a hint of anger, but Jing Xiaocha’s emotions shifted due to his words.
“But I’ve known you for so long. Even if I don’t fully understand you, I know you well enough. Last ti, when you agreed to et Shi Tian, it was because of what Little Hui said in front of Yihan, and you feared she would misunderstand.”
“…”
Jing Xiaocha gently clasped her hands together.
“You didn’t really want to get to know Shi Tian, so when he found where you lived, you were so angry that you wouldn’t even take his calls. If I’m not mistaken, Shi Tian hasn’t reached out to you recently.”
For so reason, a wave of bitterness suddenly welled up in Jing Xiaocha’s heart.
The more Wen Jin understood her, the more wronged and upset she felt inside.
She could completely ignore Ou Yihan, completely avoid Shi Tian, and live entirely according to her own wishes.
Live however made her happy.
But because she had fallen in love with this man beside her, fallen so deeply she couldn’t pull herself out, no matter how humble the love, she silently endured it.
Even loving so much that she considered the feelings of Ou Yihan.
“Last night, when you suddenly agreed to Shi Tian’s invitation again, it was just because of that morning’s scandal, and Yihan probably said sothing to you too.”
“I was going to ask Yihan, but she’s been busy all day today. If you don’t want to tell , I’ll have to ask her.”
“Brother Wen, Sister Ou is your current girlfriend. You shouldn’t anger her over my matters, or bla her because of .”
“So should I let her have you marry Shi Tian?”
Wen Jin’s face suddenly turned cold, and his voice dropped significantly.
Jing Xiaocha’s face changed, her clear eyes widening as she looked at him.
“Brother Wen, I won’t treat my marriage as so ga.”
After a mont, Jing Xiaocha responded stiffly.
“It’s normal for Sister Ou to misunderstand, Brother Wen, don’t be so good to after this.”
“She can misunderstand, but if she does, she can ask directly, not trouble you behind your back, or make you feel wronged.”
Jing Xiaocha’s nose suddenly tingled.
She instinctively pressed her lips tight.
Even if Brother Wen didn’t like her, his care and concern for her were enough to keep Jing Xiaocha holding onto this affection for him, until she grew old.
“No matter what Yihan might have said to you, you don’t need to take it to heart.”
After asking repeatedly, he still couldn’t get out of her what Ou Yihan had actually said to Jing Xiaocha.
Wen Jin decided not to ask anymore.
Jing Xiaocha turned to open the car door, “Brother Wen, if there’s nothing else, I’ll head up first.”
“Okay.”
Wen Jin was silent for a few seconds before speaking softly.
Jing Xiaocha got out of the car, waving at Wen Jin before closing the door, “Brother Wen, drive safely.”
“Go on up.”
Wen Jin’s lips curved slightly, looking at her warmly.
Wen Jin didn’t leave imdiately but watched as Jing Xiaocha entered the apartnt and went upstairs.
He sat in the driver’s seat, gazing at a certain window in the apartnt building for quite so ti, raising his hand to gently press against his temple.
Earlier, he had a thought about trying to confirm his real feelings toward Jing Xiaocha, but in the end, he gave up.
Xiaocha wasn’t like other girls, and Wen Jin didn’t want to disrupt the current dynamic between them.
Until he was sure he truly had feelings for her, the type a man has for a woman, he didn’t want to act rashly.
Even if he truly did develop feelings for Xiaocha, he couldn’t be hasty.
Yihan was still his girlfriend.
Wen Jin wasn’t sure if his feelings for Jing Xiaocha were stirred by that kiss or if he genuinely had feelings for her.
But what he could be sure of was that he didn’t have the sa kind of straightforward passion for Yihan.
Despite how seductively Ou Yihan dressed last night, even when she hugged him actively, Wen Jin didn’t lose his reason.
Taking out his phone, Wen Jin dialed Ou Yihan’s number.
The phone rang many tis without anyone picking up.
At that mont, Ou Yihan had just gotten ho and taken a shower.
Watching the constantly flashing phone screen, she hesitated to press the answer button, fearing Wen Jin would question her for pushing Xiaocha to date Shi Tian.
After he got ho and showered, Wen Jin lay down on the bed, only to hear the sound of an incoming ssage.
It was Ou Yihan saying she hadn’t heard the phone ring earlier, she’d just showered and was going to sleep, that she’d be quite busy tomorrow, wishing him a good night.
Rembering that tomorrow was her father’s birthday, Wen Jin didn’t call her again, just replied with ‘Good night.’
That night, Wen Jin dreamt of Jing Xiaocha again.
The dream replayed an ambiguous scene.
This ti, it wasn’t in the car but in his ho, right on the bed where he slept.
He woke up in the middle of the night, feeling as if the taste of a kiss still lingered on his lips.
The calm lake of Wen Jin’s heart rippled slightly because of this dream, reminiscent of the night when he got drunk, Jing Xiaocha had taken him ho, helped him into the house and onto the bed, and then accidentally fell on top of him, their lips accidentally touching.
Later, he found himself kissing her.
That was also the night he kissed Xiaocha while murmuring another’s na.
It was the deepest secret he kept in his heart.
Were Xiaocha not a girl capable of keeping secrets, his secret would have long beco everyone’s knowledge.
