Chapter 421: I Like Her So Much

At this very moment, Huo Jinyan felt as though he was a thief.

He had stolen time to be alone with Lu Ning behind other people’s backs, and without Lu Ning even knowing.

He gazed down at Lu Ning’s fair face and felt a tinge of guilt and confusion.

In his opinion, the act of stealing a kiss was very unbecoming. Even if he loved her, he ought to have obtained her consent before he behaved intimately with her.

However, in that momentary daze he had lost control of his senses.

He liked Lu Ning, and even kissed her secretly, but he was still at a loss about his own future.

He knew his own circ.u.mstances very well, and there was danger lurking all around him.

He did not even know if he would be a.s.sa.s.sinated one day.

If Lu Ning were to be by his side at that time, he had no idea if a girl like her could continue to live a safe and uneventful life.

She might not need his protection, but he nonetheless wished that she could live safely and without any worries. If it were possible, he hoped that he could accompany her for the rest of their lives.

But if he was not even certain whether he will live long enough, how could he be so sure that he would be there for her?

If Lu Jingzhi had not warned him of danger in advance, would he have been able to react in time?

He might not even be able to protect himself adequately; in that case, how would he protect her?

However, he really… really, truly liked her.

Huo Jinyan lowered his eyes. This was the first time he had felt such a mix of happiness and sorrow.

His gaze fell on Lu Ning’s face. He did not even know what he should do now; when he secretly kissed the girl he liked, what should he do next?

The surroundings were extremely quiet.

Huo Jinyan could hear his heart beating very fast.

He could also clearly hear his true thoughts.

I really want to take her for myself.

However…

Before he could think about his thoughts carefully, a pair of soft, warm hands suddenly wrapped around his fingers.

He was stunned for a moment and looked at his hand. Lu Ning’s hands were holding his index finger tightly.

His hand had been hanging by Lu Ning’s hands, and Lu Ning was seemingly doing something in her sleep and had grabbed him spontaneously.

Huo Jinyan saw that she was not awake, but she did not let go of his hand either. Neither did he break free from Lu Ning’s grip, and he simply watched her quietly.

After watching for a while, he suddenly thought of something and smiled.

Lin Ci shoved the door open and entered in a huff. When she rushed over and pulled the curtains back, this scene appeared before her eyes.

Her hand, which was lifting the curtain, stopped in midair. Her anger dissipated in an instant.

She looked at Huo Jinyan, then at Lu Ning, who was lying there; then at Huo Jinyan, then at Lu Ning.

Eventually, Gu Chen walked over from behind and patted her shoulder. “Is the sight that breathtaking? Why aren’t you saying anything?”

Only then did Lin Ci come back to her senses. She looked at Gu Chen and lowered the curtain. “What’s wrong with Ningning? I knew she would be with you, I’d thought you sold her off.”

Gu Chen: “… You sure have a rich imagination.”

Lin Ci rolled his eyes at him. ‘1 1 called Auntie and she said that Ningning came to school early in the morning. Fortunately, I’m smart enough to realize what’s up, otherwise, she would have been exposed. However… Why is Teacher

Huo here too?”

Gu Chen, on the other hand, was calm. “He’s here to see the doctor. What else?”

Lin Ci peered at him suspiciously. “To see the doctor? Then why do 1 feel like he’s here to see a girl? Wait! Is Ningning unwell again? Otherwise, why isn’t she in cla.s.s, but here at the infirmary?”

Gu Chen did not hide it from her and said directly, “She’s not sick, she’s

injured.”

“Huh?!”
