A kiss couldn't carry all Xin Yiming's spurting emotions at the moment.
His burning hand holding Jian Qingyou had loosened and slowly slid down along her smooth-curved shoulders to reach the slender waist.
It was quiet, as if everything had been frozen by this moment of passion.
There were only sounds of breathing and heavy heartbeat.
"Sorry, this room is occupied." Mo Qianxue timely prevented a customer from going upstairs while Yunyao was busy with accounting.
Luckily, the customer didn't insist to eat in a vip room and turned around to go downstairs as Mo Qianxue persuaded him.
Hearing the familiar voice, Jian Qingyou woke up from the dreamy moment and immediately pushed Xin Yiming away. She felt herself being too indecent. What was this place? This was Mo Qianxue's restaurant. What was her doing?
Being pushed away, Xin Yiming was a little shocked but quickly returned to earth too. At the sight of Jian Qingyou's messy clothes, he hurried turned around with embarrassment, guilty and annoyed at himself.
He even wanted to smack him in the face. What was wrong with him? Why did he act like a rogue?
Jian Qingyou took a look at his slightly stiff back, a little embarrassed too, biting her lips on the flushing face, and began to tidy up her messy clothes.
She was clever and now understood Mo Qianxue's intention for arranging this. She shouldn't waste her kindness and there was something that she must make clear in person.
Clearing her throat and combing her hair with fingers, Jian Qingyou calmed down and asked, "Do you...still want to marry me?"
Just now, Xin Yiming had already confessed that he liked her very much, so now she only wanted to figure out the answer to this question.
Hearing the question, Xin Yiming momentarily turned back, "Of course I want to."
Then, after a moment of silence, he looked right in the eye of Jian Qingyou and sounded sad, "I heard that your parents had arranged a marriage for you...lord Wan."
"What else did you heard of?" Jian Qingyou was a little annoyed. Hadn't she make enough suggestion?
"I also heard that on the 15th, the two families would exchange letters of proposal." Xin Yiming's voice was full of sentimentality.
After the exchange of letters of proposal, it would be the exchange of age card, which meant the marriage was officially settled. Without special incidents, there was no regret.
"Are you going to give up like this?"
"No..." Xin Yiming answered without hesitation. The voice was so sudden and anxious, not showing a bit of his usual elegance.
But for today, he would have given up, because he had inquired that lord Wan was a man of good characters. After all, he had tired many times.
Yet, there were things in the world that you wouldn't give up for life once you owned it for a while.
"Qingyou, trust me, I won't give up." Xin Yiming thought of something that Gao Lang had discovered a few days ago. He had been hesitating whether to tell it and talk with master Jian.
However, that was the last approach that he would resort to. After all, Xin family lived on the land of Jian family. On the surface, the governor of Tianxiang was his father, but in real terms, everyone knew that Jian family was the master of Tianxiang.
But now, he would hesitate no more. Even if to tear faces, he would go all out to fight for Jian Qingyou.
A glimpse of cold-heartedness flickered on Xin Yiming's face, which scared Jian Qingyou.
