Bending over, Luo Xiaoqian carefully parted his hair, searching.
"There’s nothing here."
"There must be, keep looking."
Without suspecting any trick, she supported his head with one hand and parted his hair bit by bit with the other, searching diligently.
Her fingers slid over his hair strands, the touch was light and soft, yet it stirred up tumultuous waves in his heart like a hurricane.
Jiao Yang slightly raised his face, looking at her focused expression, a flame kindled within him that he couldn’t suppress.
"Found it." Luo Xiaoqian took the small piece of eggshell from his hair, stood up to throw it into the trash bin, turned around to come back, only to see Jiao Yang had already stood in front of her, less than half a step away, she froze, instinctively taking a small step back, "Leave this to me, go take a shower!"
Jiao Yang didn’t leave, but instead took a small step closer, his eyes fixated on her.
"Xiao Qian!"
"You..." Luo Xiaoqian looked at him somewhat bewildered, "What’s wrong with you?"
Jiao Yang extended his arms, holding her shoulders, and brought his face close to hers, his deep, dark eyes intently on hers.
"Xiao Qian, come with me, let me take you away from here, you can go wherever you want, I promise, I will pamper you more than Leng Zimo, and I will never make you sad again and again like he does!"
Luo Xiaoqian regained her composure, "Jiao Yang, stop joking!"
Right now, her feelings were a mess, and he was still teasing her like this!
"You think I’m playing even now?" Jiao Yang’s voice rose, realizing his emotions were amiss; he quickly apologized, "I’m sorry, Xiao Qian, I got too excited. I know, I was a jerk before, but I truly like you. Xiao Qian, never has any other woman made me feel so heart-wrenchingly concerned. Why can’t you try shifting your gaze away from Leng Zimo and look at someone else?"
Luo Xiaoqian stared straight into his eyes, which were filled with scorching emotions.
She had seen that emotion in Leng Zimo’s eyes before.
Though not identical, they were very similar.
Looking at Jiao Yang before her, she suddenly remembered a lot of things.
In Ganzi, Sichuan, he braved the heavy rain to walk with her towards the landslide site.
