Just as he was tangled up and didn’t know what to do, Fang Yuxin had already walked up to him. The moment she drew near, Bai Ye caught a light fragrance of grass and trees emanating from her. This scent, though not as sweet as flowers or as tempting as perfume, was filled with an abundant vitality that made one feel as if they were in a primeval forest after the rain, where the refreshed vegetation bursting with life exuded a natural freshness.
Bai Ye felt that the scent of grass and trees on Fang Yuxin seemed more intense than before, and just by smelling it, all the fatigue in his body seemed to vanish as if he had been injected with new energy.
Bai Ye was taken aback, but just the faint Wood Energy diffusing from her had such remarkable effects, Fang Yuxin must have succeeded in her Foundation Establishment!
Consequently, he couldn’t help but scrutinize Fang Yuxin and indeed saw that her skin appeared finer than before, and even her facial features seemed more delicate. Especially those eyes, bright as stars, yet veiled with a shimmering moist light, lively and cunning. One glance was enough to draw one in irresistibly.
Bai Ye felt Fang Yuxin’s cool fingertips on his arm as she carefully cleaned his wound and treated his injury. He tensed up unconsciously, straining every nerve to restrain the impulses deep within him, fearing that he might repeat yesterday’s discurteous act.
The injury Bai Ye sustained wasn’t serious, aside from a cut on his arm at the beginning when he failed to dodge Fang Yuxin, he was hardly wounded after that. Fang Yuxin, noticing Bai Ye’s body gradually heating up, quickened the pace of her treatment and swiftly created distance between them.
Fang Yuxin’s gaze flickered, not daring to look at Bai Ye, her mouth blurting out, "Since you’re okay now, let’s go back." No sooner had she said this did she regret her words. How could she say that! The most important things hadn’t been clarified yet! With that thought, Fang Yuxin couldn’t help but steal a peek at Bai Ye.
Bai Ye was already anxious. Unable to hold back, he grasped Fang Yuxin’s hand, a struggling look flashed in his eyes. He intended to ask Fang Yuxin what she had been considering, but what came out was, "Xinxin, have you succeeded in Foundation Establishment?"
When Fang Yuxin heard this, she felt a twinge of disappointment; she had thought Bai Ye would mention yesterday’s event. She nodded and couldn’t resist asking, "Don’t you have anything else you want to say to me?"
Hearing this suggestive remark, Bai Ye was jolted, instinctively looking at Fang Yuxin to confirm if she meant what he thought. However, her expression was so serene that he couldn’t discern anything.
Bai Ye had thought he had no chance left; Fang Yuxin’s behavior yesterday truly frightened him. Worried about provoking her again, he dared not bring up the matter. Yet to his surprise, Fang Yuxin was the one who brought it up!
But was that really what she was asking? Or was he overthinking it?
Caught in his own troubles, Bai Ye finally said, "Xinxin, I like you. Whether you accept it or not, my feelings for you will never change." freeweɓnøvel.com
Fang Yuxin’s heart jolted. She looked at Bai Ye, her mouth agape, instinctively blurting out, "I... I also..."
