Chapter 324: Saving the Paranoid and Vengeful Business Leader 68
He only heard Wen Yang in his arms laugh softly, and then a pair of soft little hands touched his face, her affectionate eyes looking straight up at him. She stood on tiptoe and asked innocently in Ji Xingyan's ear: "Do you really not know the reason?"
Although he was clearly in a dream, Ji Xingyan seemed to be able to feel the warmth of Wen Yang's palm covering his face.
He could even feel the hot breath from the girl's soft lips brushing against his ear.
But the next second, Wen Yang turned into a wisp of mist and disappeared from his arms.
Feeling the emptiness in his arms, Ji Xingyan was at a loss for a moment.
But soon, he heard the silver bell-like laughter coming from the front again.
He looked up and saw Wen Yang, who had suddenly disappeared from his arms, standing in the ruins that had collapsed in his dream. When he turned around to look at him, there was a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and he kept asking, "A Yan, do you like me?"
"I... don't know..." Ji Xingyan's voice was difficult and hoarse.
The moment he finished speaking, the ruins in front of him suddenly began to shake, and Wen Yang's figure in front of him also became distorted.
Ji Xingyan quickly stabilized his body's center of gravity.
When the turmoil passed, the entire space returned to calm. Wen Yang, who was just in front of him, was no longer in sight. Only a red balsam flower was left floating quietly in the air, surrounded by bursts of red light.
Ji Xingyan raised his eyes and looked around, trying to find Wen Yang.
However, at this moment, a charming female voice suddenly came from the direction of Impatiens, "Are you looking for me?"
Realizing that the voice just now came from "Hua", Ji Xingyan looked towards Hua and asked cautiously: "Who are you?"
Hua suddenly trembled slightly, followed by a burst of laughter, and said bluntly: "I am the feeling hidden deep in your heart that you dare not touch. You are a coward."
This sentence sounded like a clumsy provocation, but Ji Xingyan seemed to have lost his former rationality. After hearing this sentence, he walked straight towards the flower emitting red light.
However, when he was about to approach the flower, he suddenly stopped.
Seeing that Ji Xingyan stopped moving forward, Hua asked in confusion, "Why did you stop?"
Ji Xingyan looked at the Impatiens flower that was so close yet still an arm's length away, lowered his eyes, smiled helplessly, and replied: "As you said, I am indeed a coward."
Hearing this, the Impatiens flower that was originally floating in the air suddenly grew larger, and long and wide branches and leaves grew from the bottom of the flower, which hooked Ji Xingyan's hand.
Seeing this, Ji Xingyan did not dodge, but let the branches and leaves of the flower wrap around his hands and then pull him over.
When Ji Xingyan was pulled in front of Hua, Hua's tone was no longer as pleasant as before. Instead, it became a little harsh and sarcastic, as if because of anger. "You are really amazing. You can suppress yourself when facing the desires in your heart."
As the flower spoke, the branches and leaves wrapped around Ji Xingyan's hands continued to tighten.
The acidic juice oozing from the leaves corroded Ji Xingyan's hands, leaving red marks on them. However, Ji Xingyan seemed to be unaware of it. He stared at the "flower" in front of him and said softly, "If I don't control myself and cause you trouble, it would be unfair to you."
This kind of cognition was formed when Xue Qing abandoned him and his sister. Ji Xingyan knew at that time that it was meaningless to wishfully try to retain someone who had made up their mind to leave. So for so many years, he has been adhering to this principle, suppressing all his feelings deep in his heart, and never daring to reveal his inner feelings honestly.
"Hua" seemed very dissatisfied with Ji Xingyan's answer and snorted coldly: "Why didn't you choose to run away when I wrapped my arms around you and pulled you over? Haven't you ever considered whether it was fair to you? You're obviously too timid to face yourself honestly!"
"Because you pulled me here, so I came here." Ji Xingyan replied calmly.
The "flower" seemed to be angered by this answer, and several new branches and leaves instantly grew out from the bottom. They hooked forward and wrapped around Ji Xingyan.
"Flower" spoke in a slightly threatening tone: "I'll give you one more chance to answer. Tell me, do you want me?" As it spoke, a branch was placed on Ji Xingyan's neck.
As time passed, the branches wrapped around Ji Xingyan's neck continued to tighten.
But Ji Xingyan did not answer Hua's question, but slowly closed his eyes, as if quietly waiting for suffocation.
However, the next second, all the branches and leaves wrapped around Ji Xingyan suddenly disappeared.
Ji Xingyan slowly opened his eyes and found that the huge Impatiens flower in front of him had disappeared. Instead, there was Wen Yang in a red dress. Although her face was made up delicately, her expression was very cold.
There was undisguised contempt in those eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
Then Wen Yang raised a sarcastic smile at the corner of his mouth. He just raised his hand slightly and pointed it in the direction of the ruins, and a new figure appeared in the ruins.
A black figure walked towards them, stepping on the rubble of the ruins with a dull rustling sound.
When he got closer, Ji Xingyan realized that the man in black was Liang Runcheng.
Liang Runcheng walked up to Wen Yang and naturally hugged Wen Yang in his arms. There was unconcealed passion in his eyes as he looked at Wen Yang.
Wen Yang also looked at Liang Runcheng with a smile on his face, his eyes full of affection.
Both of them were wearing costumes from the movie. Standing together at the moment, they looked perfectly matched, like a perfect couple, looking loving and well-matched.
Ji Xingyan subconsciously clenched his fists, but it felt as if a thousand-pound rock was tied to the soles of his feet, preventing him from moving at all.
After staring at Wen Yang for a while, Liang Runcheng turned his gaze to Ji Xingyan, with a hint of gloating provocation in his eyes.
He said slowly: "Brother Xingyan, fortunately you don't like Wen Yang, otherwise how would I have the chance to win the beauty?" As Liang Runcheng spoke, he hugged Wen Yang tighter.
Wen Yang also leaned her head on Liang Runcheng's shoulder like a little bird.
After hearing these words and seeing this scene, Ji Xingyan couldn't help but clench his fists hanging at his sides even tighter.
"It's not like that...it's not..." Ji Xingyan explained in a pale and weak voice.
Wen Yang, who was leaning on Liang Runcheng's shoulder, suddenly smiled charmingly. She interrupted Ji Xingyan's explanation and said slowly, "It doesn't matter. I don't care what you think now. I also want to thank you for sending Runcheng to my side."
After saying that, Wen Yang stopped looking at Ji Xingyan and raised his head and said to Liang Runcheng beside him: "Let's go together. I don't want to stay here anymore."
Liang Runcheng's peach blossom eyes curved slightly, and he replied softly and dotingly: "Okay."
Then the two turned around and prepared to leave.
Ji Xingyan looked at Wen Yang's back and subconsciously wanted to raise his hand to grab him.
However, at this moment, he seemed to be under a spell and could not move his body at all.
He could only watch Wen Yang's back getting farther and farther away from him.
The suffocation caused by Impatiens strangling his neck just now did not make him so uncomfortable, but at this moment, seeing Wen Yang and Liang Runcheng leaving together was like a poisonous snake spitting out bright red tongue tightly wrapped around his heart, making him feel a fear of facing "loss" from the bottom of his heart.
What Hua said just now was right, he is indeed a coward.
Wen Yang is like an untouchable Impatiens flower hidden deep in his heart, a hot touch of red in his world of ruins.
But because he was afraid of being abandoned again, even though he longed to get close to Wen Yang, he didn't dare to admit it directly.
Even though "Hua" had just been so proactive towards him, he just stubbornly said some very untrue words in his dream.
It was not until now, when he saw Wen Yang and Liang Runcheng snuggling together, that he realized that his emotions were not as stable as he had imagined.
At least now, he felt as if he was about to be overwhelmed by strong regret.
Perhaps because the strong unwillingness had accumulated to a certain extent, Ji Xingyan gradually broke free from the invisible force that had originally trapped him.
The moment he was able to move, he rushed out.
At this moment, he threw all the high-sounding "fairness" out of his mind. He had only one thought in his mind, that is, he wanted to be closer to Wen Yang, he wanted to be with Wen Yang, and he didn't want to give Wen Yang to anyone else!
