Chapter 249: The Kiss Which Doesn’t Land
Yin Youting didn’t know why Qin Muxuan suddenly asked that. Seeing the panicky look on her face, he could only kiss on her hand to comfort her.
“A few days later, your identity at home would be cancelled. By then, Qin Muxuan will no longer exist in this world.”
Qin Muxuan seemed quite relieved hearing Yin Youting’s words. However, a second later, she got nervous again, “Youting, what if he already found me? And Elderly Lady Gu! What if she already sent someone to catch me?!” The more Qin Muxuan thought of that, the more terrified she got. She never wanted to be caught and locked up by Elderly Lady Gu again.
“Xuan, calm down, look at my eyes.” Yin Youting held Qin Muxuan’s shoulder to let her face him, “I promise you that I won’t let him find you.”
Seeing the firm look in his eyes, Qin Muxuan finally cooled down.
As he found her getting calmer, he said again, “Trust me.”
Qin Muxuan nodded and came to her senses. Only then did she realize how weird she was just now, “Youting… I was…”
“No problem, Xuan. You just thought too much. Don’t worry, everything will pass.” Knowing what she wanted to say, Yin Youting comforted her with a smile.
Yin Youting’s words calmed Qin Muxuan a lot.
Just at this time, a boy’s voice came from not afar all of a sudden, “Sir, can you throw me the ball?”
Yin Youting turned around and saw the boy who was waving hands to him. Then he lowered his head and found the ball beside his feet. “Xuan, wait for a second.” After saying this, Yin Youting picked the ball and threw it to the boy.
“Thank you, Sir!” The little boy smiled to Yin Youting.
Qin Muxuan stared at the boy’s beaming face, feeling the boy’s figure gradually overlapping Qin Xiaobai’s. The boy found Qin Muxuan looking at him and smiled to Qin Muxuan at once. After that, he turned around to play with his friends.
After that, Qin Muxuan asked Yin Youting to take her to other places. At last, they stopped in a small garden.
Yin Youting sat on the bench next to Qin Muxuan and looked at her profile with his head lowered. However, Qin Muxuan was staring at the flower sea in front of her and didn’t notice that she was being watched by him.
“Youting, this place is so beautiful…” Qin Muxuan said that while turning to Yin Youting, only to find the latter was looking at her too. Then they both looked into each other’s eyes.
Yin Youting reached out his hand and stroked Qin Muxuan’s face. Then, he approached her.
As Qin Muxuan saw Yin Youting’s face getting closer to her, she suddenly realized something, “Youting, I am a bit tired. Let’s go back.” Qin Muxuan turned her face away and looked to the road in front of her.
“OK.” Yin Youting took back his hand and gave a soft smile again. He only blamed himself for being in a rush. He just couldn’t help but want to kiss her. Maybe that had scared her.
Yin Youting pushed Qin Muxuan to the villa slowly. On the way back, Qin Muxuan was absent-minded the whole time. She could feel the ardent stare behind her, which made her more uncomfortable.
Luckily, they arrived at the villa very soon. When Emily saw them back, she walked over to them at once, “Young Master, Miss, the dinner is going to be ready, do you need to eat now?”
“Xuan?” Yin Youting lowered his head and looked to Qin Muxuan.
“OK.” Qin Muxuan could only agree now that Emily and Yin Youting were both looking at her. If she said she didn’t have the appetite right now, it would be so obvious that she was avoiding Yin Youting.
Her words made the smile on Yin Youting’s face turn broader. Then he looked to Emily, “Go set the table.”
Emily nodded and then walked into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Yin Youting pushed Qin Muxuan to the table and helped her sit down on the chair. The smile remaining on his face made Qin Muxuan’s face scorching hot.
Yin Youting had been worried that Qin Muxuan would try to avoid him after what had just happened. Now it seemed that he had thought too much. However, this was good news to Yin Youting. At least, it meant that he still had a chance.
As Qin Muxuan felt that the air was about to freeze, Yin Youting finally stood up, “Wait for me.”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“Yes.” Qin Muxuan kept her eyes on the floor and did not dare to look at him.
After he had left, Qin Muxuan patted on her face. She felt that she did not deserve Yin Youting’s concern at all. If things continued like this, Qin Muxuan felt it necessary to make things clear with him. Also, she didn’t feel like living in this place for too long and planned to leave right after she recovered.
After a short while, Yin Youting came back with a glass of milk which had just been warmed. He put it beside Qin Muxuan’s hand and then sat next to her. “You need to have a good diet now. Having more milk is good for your unborn baby.”
“Thanks.” Qin Muxuan said softly.
As the room fell into silence again, Emily pushed a small dining car into the room. After that, she placed every dish on the table.
Emily took out a bowl and said to Qin Muxuan, “Miss, the dietitian has made this soup specially for you, please have some.” Saying this, Emily wanted to fill the bowl with that soup.
However, Yin Youting took the bowl over, “I’ll do it.”
Emily knew that Qin Muxuan meant differently to Yin Youting because the latter seemed to care about her a lot. Then, she didn’t say anything and dismissed herself as Yin Youting already started to ladle the soup.
After he put the bowl in front of Qin Muxuan, he said, “Have a bit of it. There are some herbs in it, so the taste might not be so good.”
Qin Muxuan took a glance at the soup first and took a sip with the spoon. After that, she felt the taste of the herbs spreading in her mouth. It was not tasty indeed, but she could accept it.
Seeing that Qin Muxuan was drinking the soup, Yin Youting then began to put food in her bowl. In no time, there were all kinds of dishes in her bowl, which were also all her favorite.
Qin Muxuan gave Yin Youting a contemplating look, not knowing if she should say anything. She opened her mouth for a long while and finally spoke slowly, “Youting, you don’t have to be so nice to me.”
Right now, she only felt guiltier toward him, since she could never repay his kindness to her.
“Xuan, I just want to look after you. Could you please give me a chance?” Yin Youting put down the chopsticks and stared at Qin Muxuan with an obvious affectionate look in his eyes.
Qin Muxuan moved her lips. Before she could reject him, he said ahead of her, “Xuan, don’t turn me down.”
Qin Muxuan looked to Yin Youting and sighed inwardly. Then she put some dishes in his bowl, “You should eat too. Don’t put all your attention on me.”
“OK.” With Yin Youting’s eyes lit up again, he also started to eat.
Yin Youting seemed to have a great appetite today and ate more than usual.
After dinner, Yin Youting went upstairs to deal with his business affairs. Qin Muxuan sat on the couch on the first floor while leafing through a book. However, she just couldn’t concentrate.
Later, she finally came back to her senses. It turned out that she was absent-minded once again. Qin Muxuan frowned with frustration, afraid that she would drive herself crazy if things continued like this.
“Emily.” Qin Muxuan called Emily who was doing the cleaning.
Emily was polishing the vase now. Hearing Qin Muxuan calling her, she put down the duster immediately. After she cleaned her hand with the wet tissue, she walked toward Qin Muxuan, “Miss, do you want to go upstairs for a rest?” Emily was a very outgoing girl who always smiled when she spoke.
“Yes, can you help me go upstairs?”
“Of course. Miss, let me push you there.”
After she said that, she pushed Qin Muxuan to the stairs. As they arrived by the stairs, she helped Qin Muxuan stand up from the wheelchair and walk on the stairs.
Qin Muxuan could feel her weak steps, which made her frown.
She really had to get better quickly.
Emily seemed to know what Qin Muxuan was thinking. Her clear voice came up by Qin Muxuan’s ears, “Miss, you don’t need to worry. As long as you can eat according to the diet which was made by the dietitian, you can get your strength back in less than a week.”
Qin Muxuan nodded and went upstairs again. She wasn’t paying any attention to the stairs because she was in a hurry to ask Yin Youting about what was going on with Qin Xiaobai. She wondered if she could sneak back home to meet Qin Xiaobai secretly.
Right at this moment, she suddenly missed a step. With her eyes opened wide, she cryied out, “Ah!”
“Miss!” Emily also got nervous and tried to support Qin Muxuan. However, it happened too fast and Qin Muxuan’s body was already going to fall onto the ground.
