The Wealthy Psychic Lady: 99 Stolen Kisses

A Million Times for You 2

An Xiaoning wore a white hat made of rabbit fur. It had two cat ears poking out of it as well, which gave her an adorable and lively look.

With her hands tucked in the pockets of her cotton-padded coat, she skipped to the front of his car, flashing a wide grin. "Why are you so free today?"

"I'm free just for today. Tomorrow, I'll be going overseas for a mission. It's cold out here, get on quickly."

An Xiaoning went round the front of the car and pulled open the door beside the driver's seat before hopping onto the car.

"Did you bring all the tools for fishing?"

"Of course." He turned the steering wheel and the car also turned, heading toward another direction.

"I saw the news. You invested in a television drama?" He turned to glance at her.

"Umm. The shooting starts in December, and the cast has been fixed. I chose them personally." An Xiaoning asked with a grin, "Did you see that news?"

"The news about you and that male actor Yan Ge? I saw it. I was rather surprised when I saw it, but it has been proven to be just fake news created by the media."

"It's alright if the media creates fake news because it's for publicity. Some artistes need such publicity, but I don't," An Xiaoning said helplessly. "Look at how all those netizens have berated me, they've called me all sorts of horrible names."

"The netizens only know you on the surface and have never interacted with you. They know nothing about you." His voice turned much gentler. "Don't take it to heart. Why care about how people whom you don't care about feel? That's not important."

An Xiaoning's eyes were full of smiles. "If I can't even take this much of stress, I'd long have landed in a state of depression countless of times."

"..."

On the way, the two chatted as they drove. Ji Yu told her about many interesting stories in the army force, which delighted An Xiaoning. She had always thought that the army was a strict environment. But after listening to him, she realized that even though social life was restricted for those in the army, there was still something about it that captured people's hearts.

Hearing him speak, An Xiaoning could tell that he had strong faith in the army, its officers, and the country in general.

His discipline, his attitude of abiding by principles and keeping secrets, made An Xiaoning impressed with him.

"I don't believe a man like you has no admirers in the army."

His face flushed slightly and he coughed. "Although there are few women in there, there were indeed some admirers. It's just that I didn't like them."

"What kind of women do you like?"

"Last time, I had many requirements like pretty looks, a good figure, being knowledgeable and refined, etc. But now, that isn't the case anymore."

"So what is it now?"

"I can express it in one word - feeling." His black pupils were sparkling and fixed on her as he answered.

"But feelings are developed based on one's physical looks too. If it was a short, fat, and ugly woman, would you still have feelings for her?"

He gave an answer that was ambiguous. "That depends. Such a person may not make someone fall for her at first sight, but over time, this may change. One such couple in our army is like that. The guy is tall and handsome while the girl has average looks and is rather fat, but the guy still loves her so absolutely much. I guess this is what they call 'beauty is in the eye of the beholder.' When you meet someone you like, all your requirements will automatically become less important than your feelings."
