"You gave it to me?"
The three words that came out of her mouth made us realize that this bracelet did not belong to the girl. As for who was its original owner? The answer was obvious. It was Ye Jiu.
Let me explain it briefly…
In fact, this thing had been hanging on the young man's chest with a hand-woven colorful rope since the beginning of the story. Let's not talk about the specific origin of this thing. After being knocked out by Vino outside Beiyuan City, it was the guard in charge of escorting him to the dungeon. After all, prisoners were not allowed to wear any metal pendants. Therefore, the thing fell into the storage room of the local regiment. It was not safe to leave it there. Jingmin was worried that the item would be lost. Therefore, he took out the item immediately and planned to return the bracelet to its original owner after the storm passed.
However, before he could hand it over, the other party "delivered" it over first…
"This…"
Although Ye Jiu could see some clues from the girl's reaction, he didn't realize in time that the bracelet was actually his. Wasn't it yours? He was about to ask this question, but he stopped because of the other party's behavior. That was...
His eyes were slightly blurred because of the throbbing.
Her face was flushed red because of the sudden change.
Long before the miracle in northern plains happened, Jing Min had noticed this bracelet, it was hanging on the young man's chest. It was a country boy's personal accessory, one could imagine the significance behind this item, but now, he wanted her to wear it!
The question could only be kept in her heart, and she really couldn't ask it out loud. Perhaps she was worried that Ye Jiu would suddenly go back on his word, or perhaps she was afraid that she would easily " fall for him ". From this, it could be seen that the girl didn't realize that Ye Jiu didn't know the specific origin of the jewelry. Just like before, she didn't believe that Ye Jiu would forget her name. Then, she raised her left hand and touched the exquisite patterns on the bracelet with her fingertips. Her red lips opened slightly.
"Does it look good?"
In the past eight years, Jingmin had never yearned for praise from others like she did today. She yearned for the other party to get close to her. Now that she had given this " simple question " to express her feelings, it was simply a clear indication to the other party that the kiss from before and the present gift made her believe that the young man was going to…
He would give the answer he wanted.
The two misunderstandings had completely melted the high wall that the girl had erected in her interpersonal relationships. Her innocent smile and brilliant questions made Ye Jiu's lips curl up into a doting arc. So far, who was the owner of the bracelet? It was no longer important. Putting down his doubts and answering seriously was what he really should do.
"Sister Jingmin!"
The crisp and melodious voice followed the walls on both sides and instantly penetrated the entire alley. At the same time, it shattered the hard-won " pink " atmosphere. The familiar tone made Jingmin shiver and hurriedly look back. As expected, the person standing at the entrance of the alley was the naughty girl, Yuanhong.
Shouldn't this girl be driving to the inner court?
Everyone might have almost forgotten about this female character who appeared before the female protagonist. At the beginning of the article, there were a few simple descriptions that only showed Yuanhong's willfulness and cuteness. When it came to understanding, Jingmin, as her best friend, naturally had more say than the author. For example, why did she use double quote when she said " big mouth "? I'm sure everyone knows that this doesn't refer to having a big mouth, but one who can't control his mouth.
If this girl saw him alone with a strange man in a deep alley, she would probably not be able to stop for ten days to half a month. At that time, she would probably make it known to everyone in the country!
Yuan Hong's figure was approaching…
It made her heart rate, which was already abnormal, even more difficult to control. The other party's brisk footsteps seemed to be heavy on Jingmin's heart! The " stomping " made him unable to breathe. What should come would come eventually. He saw the girl quickly walk in front of him. Her slender feet tapped the ground, and she leaped in the air like a rabbit…
Although her doll-like delicate face was not as " exquisite " as the girl in front of her, it was definitely one in a hundred. At this moment, she bent her body and tilted her head to please. From her skillful actions of acting coquettishly and cutely, it was not difficult to see that she was walking the cute path.
The two of them looked at each other. The panic on Jingmin's face was bound to give rise to such a question…
"Sister Jingmin?"
"Yuan. Yuan Hong, no. It's not what you think, he. He's actually..."
According to the previous debate in the deliberation hall, there was no doubt that Jingmin was good at expressing herself. Who would have thought that she, who had always been greedy, would be so panicked that her throat was " stuffed ". She was worried that her best friend would talk too much, so she subconsciously tried to explain her relationship with the teenager. However, taking into account Ye Jiu's thoughts, those words that were about to clear the relationship were on the tip of her tongue, but she could not get them out. She was in a dilemma, which created this stammering appearance, which was very pleasant.
However, the other party's reaction was…
One word expressed the doubt in Yuan Hong's heart. Her confused expression and her gaze that was looking around caused the young lady to realize something. She turned her head around. No one could be found in the empty alley. Only the dark-black fog that was 'crawling' along the ground finally followed her ankle and gradually faded…
This... What did it feel like?
Ye Jiu's timely departure had indeed helped Jingmin out of her predicament, but it did not make her feel relieved. That's right, the feeling of loss lingered in her heart. Pain, heartache. Then, this pain was naturally transplanted onto herself, so much so that she began to hate the scruples in her heart. She hated the bad reaction of trying to deny the relationship. She hated herself for being like this…
For the past eight years, she had always placed revenge as her top priority. She had always deliberately kept a distance from others. Now, it had even become a habit of her mind. No matter how much she liked someone, her body and even her consciousness would not be at the mercy of her emotions. Of course, this was also related to her overly powerful family background.
"What's wrong?"
Yuan Hong, who was looking left and right, stopped her movements because of the sudden change in the girl's expression and asked gently. Even though she was not good at caring about others, the worry in the girl's eyes was "asking" her not to joke around like usual.
Perhaps her thoughts had changed a little. Jingmin began to notice that Yuanhong, who had known her for many years, was very careful when talking to her. Could she be considered a real friend? Friends should be in love with each other, not cautious in their words and actions. Although she was eager to change this state, she seemed to have forgotten how to take the initiative to approach others.
The young girl did not want to lose this hard-won relationship. For this, she had to change! He had to grow!
"Sister Jingmin?"
"We are friends, right?"
...
The young girl's true feelings were indeed a little abrupt to Yuanhong, but it still moved the girl to tears. After all, she was a 15-year-old girl. She liked to think of things as romantic and touched herself. After a few heart-to-heart words, she slowly revealed the reason for her appearance here…
In fact, the enrollment plan had not changed. A few hours ago, the students had already gathered, and the carriage heading inland had also set off on time. However, due to the absence of Jingmin in the team, when the leading teacher drove past the Imperial City (The Imperial Spirit Academy was a branch academy in the Hai Ning Country, but not in the Imperial City, but in the neighboring city Shanzhou. This town would be mentioned later), he had asked Yuan Hong, who had taken the initiative to request for "battle", to find the whereabouts of the number one academy. Even if she could not find him, she had to at least ask him why he had abandoned the important inner court assessment.
Speaking of which, if it wasn't for the fact that the team lacked a genius student that was hard to come by in a hundred years, the academy's carriage would have already entered the mainland.
"Sister Jingmin, let's go gather quickly. Don't let the instructor wait anxiously.”
Wiping away the remaining "touched" from the corner of her eyes, Yuan Hong suddenly remembered her main mission. She immediately held the young girl's hand, turned around, and walked out of the alley. Since she had found the person, she naturally had to bring her back to the team. However, after taking two steps, she sensed that something was wrong…
Jingmin's legs did not exert any strength. That's right, she did not seem to have any intention of following him, but she did not refuse his pull either. She seemed to be hesitating about something. After taking two steps forward in an extremely passive manner, she stopped because of Yuanhong's confusion.
"Sister Jingmin?"
"Yuanhong, I... I haven't thought it through yet."
