He turned, only to see that sitting in the driver's seat, was actually an elegant and beautiful lady. Qin Chu had casually coiled her hair into a common bun behind her head. With one hand on the steering wheel, and her index finger held to her bright red lips, making a "shh" movement.
"Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, keep your voice down." Qin Chu controlled her voice to an extremely low tone. "The young master is still resting in the back seat, after driving for more than ten hours. Don't disturb the young master’s rest."
Immediately, Jing Xia understood and closed his mouth, before turning his head to look towards the backseat. At this moment, he saw that the cold and indifferent man had both his eyes closed, leaning back against the soft back of the chair, seemingly taking a short breather. With arms crossed over his chest, even while resting, the man was well prepared to deal with unexpected events.
"Young master, would you like me to change places with you? So that you can come and take care of Young Master Ji?" Steward w.a.n.g's kind voice sounded, and Jing Xia was stunned for a moment before he agreed. Only after he got down from the car and changed places with Steward w.a.n.g, did he inexplicably recall: even if he sat in the backseat, Ji Chuancheng was still resting by himself. It seemed to have nothing to do with him, let alone require him to look after Ji Chuancheng!
Slowly flattening his lips, Jing Xia softly snorted and turned his head to look out the window. Outside the window was a vast expanse of flat farmland, a dense green colour spreading to the farthest point on the horizon, blending with the dark blue sky. However, the rate of growth for the crops in these fields differed from each other.
Some of them, being outstanding climbers, seemed as though they wanted to become a tree that reaches up to the sky. While others are withered and yellowing, forming a large dried plain. Moreover, common rice ears that looks no different from before, swayed in the cool breeze to form a vast, beautiful wheat wave.
Through the gaps between the sycamore leaves, the brilliant suns.h.i.+ne caused the rice ears to reflect a variety of colours, with a faint layer of gold sprinkled on top. Jing Xia could not take his eyes off this sight, a magnificent scene he had never beheld before. The life flouris.h.i.+ng after evolution to proudly sprout soft shoots, with the decaying life unyieldingly dancing with their last breath. This tenaciously resisting life had been discarded due to the circ.u.mstances, yet there was no resentment.
Such a dazzling, golden, wheat field; truly a spectacular sight!
"What are you thinking about?" Carrying a nasal sound after having just woken up, a deep male voice rang from behind Jing Xia. As soon as he turned, he saw Ji Chuancheng leaning to the side while looking at himself. The sunlight sprinkled on the handsome face through the gap of the window, softening the cold and stalwart edges, causing Jing Xia to feel that he looked much gentler.
"I was thinking... after this, I’m afraid that I would never see such a beautiful sight again."
Hearing this, Ji Chuancheng lifted his gaze to look at the luminous golden scene, saying: "You will see even more beautiful sceneries in the future." Seeing the young man's look of loss, the deep pupils slightly darkened. Ji Chuancheng suddenly opened his mouth, awkwardly and bluntly starting the topic: "Last night, you were sleep talking."
"!" Jing Xia jumped in shock, the feelings of melancholy and sorrow that had been brewing in his heart instantly disappeared. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and tentatively asked: "This isn’t possible... when did I have this problem?"
"En, you have it." The tone was unwavering, with no room for doubt.
Jing Xia was in shock. After a long while, he carefully looked at the expression of Qin Chu and Steward w.a.n.g from the rearview mirror first, discovering that they did not seem to care about the happenings in the back seat. Only then did he find an opportunity to go next to the ear of Ji Chuancheng, and whispered. "What did I say?”
Due to the close distance, with just a s.h.i.+ft of his gaze, Ji Chuancheng could catch sight of the youth’s slim protruding collarbone. In such hot weather, Jing Xia wore very little. Looking down from his angle, in addition to the fair, lean shoulders, he could also see small protrusions faintly hidden in the darkness.
Ji Chuancheng turned his gaze to the side without a word, his expression was still as collected as ever: "You said, you are eating the roasted lamb of Yong Sheng Ju. The meat is exquisite and the crispy skin is tender. You must finish it all before I show up."
“……”
Qin Chu: "Pff! Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, this is really in line with your style."
Jing Xia's face turned both green and purple, before finally reddening like a cooked prawn. He turned his head to look at Ji Chuancheng, and fiercely said: "A’chuan, you are wrongly accusing me! How can my dream be... filled with eating? Am I that kind..."
"You are." There was a hint of playfulness in his voice, Ji Chuancheng restrained himself and softly laughed.
The beautiful peach blossom eyes abruptly widened, and suddenly, just as Jing Xia prepared a fist to give the poisonous tongued man next to him a bas.h.i.+ng, the entire car violently shook before he had a chance to move.
"The national highway had been sealed off by the evolved plants, so we can only make a detour from a nearby country road." Holding the steering wheel steadily, Qin Chu said: "Oh yes, the road may be a little b.u.mpy. Little b.a.s.t.a.r.d, don't you fall down.."
"..." Lying on the body of Ji Chuancheng, Jing Xia was left speechless.
The broad warm chest was pressed under his body with one hand, and almost the entire body of Jing Xia was sprawled across Ji Chuancheng’s body, completely blocking the other’s movements due to his body weight advantage. His right hand was placed on the left hand side of Ji Chuancheng's chest. With only a few layers of fabric in between, Jing Xia could feel the wildly beating heart that was full of vitality.
