At six o'clock, the setting sun withdrew its last sunlight. The flaming light was overwheld by layers of clouds.
As the sumr vacation began, the Provincial No.1 Middle School seed especially quiet in the setting sun. By the bank of the Swan Lake, two pairs of ducks stayed among the water plants, cuddling each other with their necks and enjoying the tranquil ti.
Ye Jian walked out the school, opened the car door and sat in the car… It was precisely six o'clock.
Xia Jinyuan had a mixed feeling about her punctuality.
She arrived neither earlier nor later than six o'clock. Was she so reluctant to spend one more minute with him?
"You arrived precisely on ti. Aren't you afraid that we might be delayed by sothing on our way there?" Xia Jinyuan started the car, smiling. He asked Ye Jian, who was still wearing her school uniform, "Ye Jian, you have arrived on ti for three consecutive days. Do you hate so much that you don't want to spend one more minute with ?"
Likewise, she only said "thank you and goodbye" to him when they ca back. As she alighted the car, she left chicly without looking back.
On the first day, he expected that she would turn around and wave at him after she entered the school gate. On the second day, he expected she would show up ten minutes earlier. On the third day… he held no expectation.
He would have suffered a heartache if he disputed with this insensitive girl.
Sotis, Xia Jinyuan's smiles were as faintly indiscernible as a subtle ripple but also mysterious like a deep and unfathomable ancient well.
Every ti this extrely handso and elegant man smiled at her, Ye Jian felt that… the surrounding air would beco so thin that every breath she drew was filled with the faint sll of mint from him.
She was always calm and poised when she was with others. However, in front of Xia Jinyuan, she felt awkward.
Hearing this, she curled her lips to assu her usual composure. Calmly, she said, "I am very punctual. Captain Xia, you can arrive at six o'clock sharp every day so that you don't need to wait for too long. I will keep my promise, even if I might be delayed by sothing."
"But what if I want to arrive earlier to wait for you?" Xia Jinyuan stopped the car before the pedestrian crossing, waiting for the green traffic light. He tilted his head. As he saw the calm look on Ye Jian' s face, he slightly raised his eyebrows. "Do you want to turn the air-conditioner a bit cooler? You seem… very hot."
Of course, she was hot! To arrive on ti, she ran all the way here. The weather was still hot, even after the sunset!
Not to ntion that the man sitting next to her always said sothing that could lead to misunderstandings. As a grown woman, wasn't it normal for her to feel awkward?
Ye Jian could not get rid of her awkward feeling—which would occur to her every ti they t—until she reminded herself several tis that the man was 20 years of age.
As she cald down, her facial expressions beca brighter. The instant the green traffic light lit up, Ye Jian turned around to smile at Xia Jinyuan, who was releasing his masculine charms. "Of course, I feel hot because I ran all the way here. What can I do? I can't let you leave without , Captain Xia."
Her smile was gorgeous and refreshing as a blooming flower. The beauty in her black eyes dwarfed the rosy clouds in the sky.
Xia Jinyuan was caught off guard. Her smile, along with her "What can I do" jumped into his eyes. They even seed to have imprinted in his mind.
"Captain Xia, if you don't drive, the traffic police might co over." His bewildernt made Ye Jian smile. There was a subtle smile in her black eyes. Tut! She could play using his tricks, all right?!
