Xia Jinyu was shocked. She turned around and saw Xu Ruiyan standing behind her, holding her hand.
Xu Ruiyan's face was gloomy. His usually calm face was now filled with a storm. His eyes, in particular, had a fierceness that he had never seen before. Being stared at by him like that, Xia Jinyu inexplicably felt a little afraid.
She subconsciously wanted to pull her hand back, but she realized that Xu Ruiyan was holding it tightly. Her wrist hurt, but she was also frightened by Xu Ruiyan's expression. Her aura was taken away by him, and she could not even ask Xu Ruiyan what he wanted to do.
Xia Jinyu only felt her head hurt even more.
"Don't tell me you really want to marry that person?”
Only Xu Ruiyan knew what kind of storm and jealousy he felt when he said that.
The last time Xia Jinyu returned home, he already had this feeling. He kept feeling that he was about to lose Xia Jinyu. In fact, he had never obtained it.
But he was too proud. He always felt that everything was under his control. For example, the solemnity from before, and Xia Jinyu's personality. When it came to feelings, she was always a little passive.
But now? He lost control. Everything was out of control. When he thought about how Xia Jinyu was about to belong to someone else, he could not control himself.
How could this be? He tightened his grip, and his eyes seemed to be on fire.
"Tell me, do you really want to marry that person?”
" Who-" Who's going to marry that person?
Xia Jinyu's hand hurt badly. Looking at Xu Ruiyan's angry face, she thought,""Does it have anything to do with you?"
Didn't he always dislike her and want her to stay away from the Xu family? She was getting married. Shouldn't he set off firecrackers to celebrate?
The force on her wrist increased, and Xia Jinyu felt that her wrist was about to be crushed. Coupled with the headache from staying up late, she wanted to pull her hand back. He took a step forward and pressed Xia Jinyu against the wall of the corridor.
Xia Jinyu was shocked by his actions. She widened her eyes and looked at Xu Ruiyan in confusion. W-what did he want?
She did not think that he would dare to do anything to her here. She was already an adult. Those pranks from when she was young should have passed, right?
However, looking at the magnified face in front of her, Xia Jinyu's heart jumped to her throat. She blinked and began to wonder if she was hallucinating because of her headache.
Xu Ruiyan looked at the pair of eyes in front of him. When did this pair of eyes start to appear in his dreams? Like a deer, it was always full of intelligence, vitality, and liveliness.
She could always live well, no matter where she was. When he was bullied by the siblings, when he was bullied by them. When she grew up, she wanted to work hard to get rid of the Xu family.
He often paid attention to her and watched her grow up little by little. He thought that she would be his in the end.
But now, it was for the sake of others. First, it was solemn. Now, it was Ji Zhanbei. She did not know if there would be other men in the future. He suddenly did not want to endure it any longer.
Perhaps he should have done this a long time ago, so that she would be his. She wouldn't be snatched away by another man.
Xia Jinyu watched as that face was about to press against her, but the pressure on her body disappeared in an instant. Her body was pulled into another thick and muscular chest.
Xia Jinyu was still a little stunned when her small face bumped into the hard part. She looked up at Ji Zhanbei, who had suddenly appeared, and her brain froze for a minute.
"Not the washroom?" Ji Zhanbei didn't look at Xu Ruiyan. Instead, he looked at Xia Jinyu."What took you so long?"
" I-" She hadn't even gone, alright? Xia Jinyu was about to open her mouth, but the tip of her nose was filled with the masculine scent that was unique to Ji Zhanbei, mixed with the smell of grass. It was different from the faint scent of cologne that she had accidentally smelled on Xu Ruiyan's body.
The smell on Ji Zhanbei's body always reminded people of the sunshine in June. Brilliant and scorching. Xia Jinyu only realized at this moment that her waist was still being hugged by Ji Zhanbei, and her small face looked a little uncomfortable.
She felt uncomfortable because Xu Ruiyan was standing in front of her, not because she was embarrassed.
"I, I'm going to the bathroom." When she realized that the big hand seemed to have tightened a little, she felt even more uncomfortable. Without thinking, she slipped out of his arms and went to the bathroom at the end of the corridor.
After the female lead left, Ji Zhanbei's gaze finally fell on Xu Ruiyan.
"What is Young Master Xu trying to do?"
The way he addressed Xu Ruiyan reminded her of how Xia Jinyu addressed Xu Ruiyan at the bar. Xu Ruiyan's expression did not look too good. Ever since his " good deed " was ruined by Ji Zhanbei, he had been looking at him with hostility.
"Ji Zhanbei. Little Yu won't marry you."
"Oh? Is that so?" Ji Zhanbei looked relaxed and did not take Xu Ruiyan's words to heart at all. Crossing his arms in front of his chest, his expression was a little playful and mocking."If she doesn't marry me, do you want her to marry you?”
After being here for so long, what else could he not see clearly? Ji Zhanbei took a step forward and met Xu Ruiyan's gaze.
He was 1.86 meters tall, a few centimeters taller than Xu Ruiyan, who was 1.81 meters tall. After more than ten years in the military, the constant training had made him look even stronger. Standing in front of him, even Xu Ruiyan, who had been in the business world for a long time and was already considered an old fox, could not overpower him in terms of aura.
Xu Ruiyan's expression turned even uglier when he realized this.
"Little Yu doesn't like you." He more or less understood Xia Jinyu. She had always liked refined men. Just look at the solemnity.
"Could it be that she likes you?" Ji Zhanbei seemed to have heard a joke. His voice was not loud, but every word he said made Xu Ruiyan's emotions unstable. His face turned pale."Young Master Xu, Young Master Xu, don't forget that you're Little Yu's brother.”
The word 'brother' was especially emphasized. Xu Ruiyan's expression turned ugly. Her hands that hung by her sides clenched into fists, and she tried her best to restrain herself from punching Ji Zhanbei's face.
"If you don't want Little Yu to hate you, you'd better be at ease as an older brother.”
This was Ji Zhanbei's advice. He might not understand Xia Jinyu, but there was one thing that he could see clearly. Xia Jinyu didn't like to have too much to do with the Xu family.
He was certain that Xia Jinyu would not like Xu Ruiyan. If she really liked him, she would have liked him long ago.
The veins on the back of Xu Ruiyan's hand bulged, and his handsome face was filled with a conflicted expression. How could he not know? Being siblings was the best choice. However, this was how things were in this world. If feelings could be controlled, then why would so many people be hurt by love? Trapped by love?
Did he miss it just like that? His heart was bleeding.
No matter how conflicted he was, Ji Zhanbei didn't care. He turned around and walked towards the end of the corridor. Hmm, that little woman took so long to go to the toilet? Don't tell me he's thinking of escaping the marriage?# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:082820187:29PM
