Chapter 376: Captain Xia, Stand Up

Her face was red and her heart was racing. She could only apologize. “I’m sorry. I’ll take note of it next time. Captain Xia, can you stand up straight? Release your hands. It’s a little hot. There’re many people here too. It’s embarra.s.sing.”

…

Ye Jian felt that it was embarra.s.sing but Xia Jinyuan felt happy. It was not embarra.s.sing to him at all.

It was not hot too. Her body was cold. She wasn’t sweating and the refres.h.i.+ng smell from her body was still present. It removed all the heat. It was a good thing that she grew taller. Last time, he needed to bend down to hug her. Now, he just needed to curve his back slightly and he would be able to hug her comfortably.

The last time he met her was when she was 14 years old. Now, she was 16 years old. She had turned into a beautiful and well-liked lady for many young men.

“Captain Xia, hurry up and stand up.” Ye Jian was really hot. She used her finger to poke his st.u.r.dy back. His muscles were tight and firm. Even with one finger, she could feel the strength of his back.

Xia Jinyuan lowered his head and took a deep breath from the side of her neck. Then, he got up normally and smiled at the awkward Ye Jian. He sighed. “I almost fell down. Little Fox, did you do it on purpose?”

“I didn’t.” Ye Jian hurriedly shook her head and denied it. She explained sincerely, “I felt that the car was too hot so it’ll be uncomfortable if you go in. Hence, I pulled you without thinking too much.”

“I miscalculated my strength. I also didn’t know that you would be caught off guard.”

Her face turned even redder after she finished explaining.

Xia Jinyuan stared at it. He didn’t want to leave. His voice turned low. It was enchanting like a gla.s.s of red wine. “Are you worried about me? Hmm?”

He dragged the end of his words. It sounded s.e.xy as though he was drunk.

“I’m not worried. I just think that you can wait for a while.” Ye Jian managed to control her emotions quickly. She reacted in time when Xia Jinyuan teased her. “Please be more careful next time.”

She looked really cute when she was vigilant. She was cute too when she was embarra.s.sed and angry. She is cute whatever she does!

Xia Jinyuan didn’t continue teasing her. He raised his hand and patted her head. Then, he pointed to his car and asked, “Comrade Ye Jian, am I able to go and take my gift from the car?”

She was his comrade. They were of equal status. He was reminding her that she was his comrade.

Ye Jian smiled when she heard the word ‘comrade’. She replied happily, “Please get in the car, comrade. I’ve confirmed that everything is alright.”

Xia Jinyuan laughed when he heard her speaking so seriously.

This was a dangerous and elegant man. He was scheming too. He would never get too far from you but you wouldn’t be able to get close to him.

He had good manners but you know that he was not close to you. It was just his upbringing.

His smile was gentle. It was enchanting. However, the elegance in his body wouldn’t change. He was a man with status and power.

Ye Jian smiled when she saw him smiling. His smile was warm and comfortable. It wasn’t intruding. It was a sincere smile.
