Pressing the play button, Jing Jiaren's recording from a few years ago... her confession to Ximen Longting was repeated again.
Jing Jiaren pressed the loop play button, placed the Scorpion King on the bedside table, and walked into the other room to take a look. She originally wanted to go to the kitchen to cook a meal, but she was hungry and guessed that Ximen Longting hadn't eaten either.
He has always been a guy who doesn't take care of his body.
Cloakroom, chess and card room, bathroom, but no kitchen.
Jing Jiaren turned around and went back to her room to see Ximen Longting coming back again, holding a convenience bag in his hand.
Seeing Jing Jiaren's face reappearing in the sun, Ximen Longting narrowed his eyes and was absent-minded for a moment, but Jing Jiaren still curled up his lips and showed his favorite smile.
Ximen Longting's eyes dimmed slightly, he walked to the sofa and threw the bag on the coffee table.
Jing Jiaren shamelessly approached him, squeezed into his arms and let him hold her, and put her hands around his neck so that he had to look at her face.
Ximen Longting did not reject her as fiercely as before.
Jing Jiaren frowned: "Ximen Longting, you are such a superficial man... you would have treated me so differently if you had changed your face."
Ximen Longting also frowned and took off her hand: "Don't make trouble!"
"Have I become disfigured and ugly, so you don't want me anymore?"
"Neuropathy."
Jing Jiaren pinched his cheek: "Before, you even looked at me as unnecessary, and you were full of dislike for me."
"..."
"Ximen Longting, you are really too much. If it weren't for this face, you would definitely not fall in love with me."
Ximen Longting pressed her hand and said harshly: "I'm not that noble. When I don't know anything about a person, I only love a person's spirit. Ask Leng Lintian, do you have a long one?"
With a face like that, would he have fallen in love with you in the first place?! If he told you that he would, that would be his hypocrisy!"
Jing Jiaren's lips moved...she felt hurt.
Ximen Longting said harshly: "Your face is also a part of you, and it is also yours! If I grow up to be short and pockmarked, will you love me?"
Jing Jiaren couldn't refute this time, who is not superficial?
Ximen Longting's hand was in her thick hair. Yes, he felt "love at first sight" for Jing Jiaren at first, but later he fell in love with her character even more. After the two got along, they had a deeper feeling.
He likes her, and she has the ability to fascinate him just by looking at her.
Ximen Longting quickly took out his hand and pushed her body: "Get out of here."
Damn, I was almost bewitched by this woman! He didn't forget that he was still angry!
Jing Jiaren just leaned in his arms, clinging to him, holding him with both hands: "No."
"Jing Jiaren, do you want face?"
"It was you who taught me the skill of being thick-skinned...I have learned it."
"Get down!"
Not only did Jing Jiaren not leave, she pressed her small face against his chest, slightly raised the corners of her lips and smiled at him, her long eyelashes blinking, like a fairy in the deep sea, confusing him with a half-smile but not a smile...
Ximen Longting's heart was knocked tightly several times, and he turned away and took out a can of beer from the food bag.
"You're not allowed to drink." Jing Jiaren took it easily, "Honestly, did you often smoke and drink while I was away? You promised me to quit!"
"My wife is gone, why should I quit? Do you want to take care of it?"
Jing Jiaren threw away the beer can, held Ximen Longting's chin, and wanted to forcefully kiss her... to see how he could resist her.
