Chapter 2389: A failed confession

Xinyan just stared at Lin Yi, not knowing what to do. She’d thought about their relationship before, and she’d also thought about the fact that things might’ve gone south between her family and house Kang, so she’d been holding back her feelings for Lin Yi, trying not to let them get out of hand.

But, while she was reminding herself to stay calm, she did a lot of unforgivable things on the other hand … Like hugging Lin Yi, watching a movie with him, and now she was naked with him …

She didn’t like Zhaolong, and she didn’t like house Kang’s engagement, but since her family had already agreed to it, Xinyan felt that she shouldn’t do this. It felt like she was cheating on him, and she felt guilty!

However, she had to admit that being with Lin Yi was a very happy and comfortable life. The occasional flirtatious moment, the heartwarming moment, it was unforgettable and satisfying. She even wished that she could be his desk mate forever, never graduating, never having to face the marriage with her family!

It was just that, as time went by, Xinyan’s heart was leaning more and more towards Lin Yi, and she’d become more and more rebellious, not wanting to think about the marriage anymore … But she also knew that some things were destined and couldn’t be changed-she was just lying to herself!

Lin Yi’s strength was out of the ordinary, and she saw that his lackeys were all stronger than the previous one. Even elder Pi had become his follower, and Xinyan was looking forward to it!

The common house Xiao was backed by the Hidden House Pi, and now that the Hidden House Pi was Lin Yi’s follower, it shouldn’t be too hard for old master Pi to talk to house Xiao and cancel the engagement, right?

But Xinyan didn’t expect Lin Yi to confess so quickly, and she was caught off guard! As far as she was concerned, she needed to break off the engagement first before she could be with Lin Yi. She’d been a good girl since she was young, and so she always felt that it was a crime to be with Lin Yi without breaking off the engagement, and it made her feel a deep sense of responsibility …

This was also the reason why she was stunned. She didn’t know how to reply to Lin Yi. Don’t agree? Xinyan’s heart was pounding, and she couldn’t make up her mind …

Xinyan didn’t know what to say-she really did have the urge to say yes, but there were so many people in the room, especially Mengyao and Yushu … She couldn’t just nod like that …

Wasn’t this a bit like threatening Lin Yi? Did he say that because he wanted to be responsible for her? Otherwise, why did he pretend to be asleep before?

All of a sudden, Xinyan’s mind was in a mess, and all sorts of things came to her mind, making her dizzy. She wanted to run away, and for some reason, she ran out of the villa and disappeared from everyone’s sight …

Lin Yi blinked-it’d be a piece of cake for him to stop Xinyan, but did that mean she’d rejected him?

Lin Yi couldn’t help but smile bitterly-he didn’t know what Xinyan was thinking. She should have feelings for him, right? why else would she help him practition so many times?

For a girl to make such a sacrifice, it was enough to show her intentions, but why did she suddenly run away?

“Shield bro’s confession failed …” Chen Yushu was confused as well. Wang Xinyan seemed to like Lin Yi, why did it fail?

“Shu!” Mengyao glared at her. Lin Yi’s confession had failed, and he must be in a bad mood. Shu’s words were like adding oil to the fire.

She didn’t know why, but she felt a sense of relief. Was it because Xinyan didn’t accept Lin Yi’s confession? But why did he feel a little regretful? He hoped that Lin Yi and Xinyan would be together.

Was it because of the promise he made to Tang Yin?

Old master Pi and the others could see the awkwardness in the air-it was best if they didn’t stay in the villa any longer, as it’d make Lin Yi look bad. He cleared his throat and said,”Um … Zhishan, Zhihai, Chentian, old Wu, let’s go out for a walk. The weather looks nice today …”

Everyone responded-they naturally understood what elder Pi was thinking. It was a bit awkward for them to stay here, so it was best for them to leave!

Lin Yi didn’t stop them and let them leave, but before Chentian left, he said,”Take a look at her, don’t let anything happen to her …”

“I know, boss!” Chentian understood immediately-Lin Yi didn’t make it that clear, but he knew that he was asking him to keep an eye on Xinyan …

With a bitter smile, Lin Yi sat down on the sofa, while Mengyao and Yushu accompanied him.

“Shield bro, you’ve failed with the girl. Do you need my advisor Shu to help you analyze?” Chen Yushu asked.

“What do you know? Don’t analyze it. ” Mengyao interrupted.”Go get some water, I’m a little thirsty …”

“Oh …” Yushu wasn’t reluctant this time. She stood up happily and walked to the kitchen.

“Lin Yi, Wang Xinyan’s probably just a little confused, it’s not that she doesn’t want to accept your confession.” Chu Mengyao observed the details carefully and came to this conclusion after thinking about it. However, she wasn’t very sure. She only said this to comfort Lin Yi.

“It’s fine, haha …” Lin Yi smiled,””I know …”

“En, it’s good that you know. Don’t be too disappointed, I think Wang Xinyan likes you.” “Today’s events were too sudden,”Mengyao said.” If you … Suddenly confessed to me, I’d probably hesitate. Of course, if you could confess a few more times, I’d probably say yes …”

“En …” Lin Yi nodded, not thinking much about it.

A hint of disappointment flashed in Mengyao’s eyes. Did he really understand? He didn’t seem to understand …

At this time, Chen Yushu came back with a cup of tea and passed it to Lin Yi.”Right, shield bro, why did you look for Xinyan sis?”

“Just now …” Lin Yi took the cup from Shu and was about to take a sip to moisten his throat. He was actually a little thirsty, but before he could put the cup to his mouth, Chen Yushu suddenly reached out and snatched it back. (To be continued.)
