“Qin Xuan, wait for us here with Yu Yan for a moment. Qin Lin and I are going to buy a swimsuit, it’s too inconvenient otherwise.” Tantai Yue greeted Qin Xuan.
Before Qin Xuan could speak, Wang Yu Yan stepped forward and interjected,
“Okay, you guys go ahead. We’ll wait here for you.”
After Tantai Yue and the other woman left, Wang Yu Yan hugged Qin Xuan’s arm and found a chair to sit down. Qin Xuan tried to break free, but she was stronger.
“Can you be more careful? There are so many people around. What if someone recognizes you?” Qin Xuan frowned, giving up his struggle and letting her embrace him.
Wang Yu Yan smiled playfully,
“What are you worried about? I’m not wearing any makeup today, and my hair is tied up. I look quite different, and I’m wearing sunglasses. If you don’t look closely, no one will recognize me.”
“Besides, most of the people here are couples. Look at that pair over there making out, and that one is giving each other hickeys. Tsk tsk tsk. Look at that couple in the pavilion at the far end. The man’s hand is reaching inside the woman’s swimsuit. How perverted!” Wang Yu Yan pointed out several couples.
“…” Qin Xuan’s eyes widened. Are young people this open these days?
Wang Yu Yan hooked Qin Xuan’s chin with her finger, shamelessly teasing,
“Man, why don’t we try it too? I just passed by and found a very secluded spot, that small wooden house by the lake. How about we go there? I’m wearing very little today, so you won’t even have to undress.”
Qin Xuan’s face instantly turned red. His chin felt itchy, and a certain part of him, unable to control itself, became aroused again.
Fearing a repeat of last time, Qin Xuan quickly stood up and put distance between them.
“Yu Yan, what has happened to you? You weren’t like this before!” Qin Xuan swallowed hard, trying to calm himself, and spoke somewhat seriously.
Wang Yu Yan had changed so much in Qin Xuan’s eyes, especially since that night. She had become even more unrestrained.
Seeing Qin Xuan’s serious tone, Wang Yu Yan also dropped her playful demeanor. She stood up, walked in front of Qin Xuan, their noses less than a fist apart.
Qin Xuan could even smell the fragrance of her body and lipstick.
Wang Yu Yan said softly,
“I have indeed changed.”
“Do you know why I changed?” Wang Yu Yan’s tone became serious.
“My mother left me early in life. Not long ago, my grandfather and father also passed away. My relatives have left me one by one. As a weak woman, is it wrong for me to want someone to rely on?”
“Since you have a woman, why did you intrude into my life? Why did you make me fall for you? Tell me!”
Wang Yu Yan’s eyes welled up with tears as she spoke.
“Why have I changed? It’s because I love you! Is that reason enough?” Wang Yu Yan choked back tears, almost screaming.
Looking at the trembling Wang Yu Yan, Qin Xuan’s heart skipped a beat. He looked at her with pity.
A moment later, Qin Xuan sighed and gently embraced her. Wang Yu Yan instantly clung to Qin Xuan’s broad back and wept uncontrollably.
After all, she was just a woman. Her relatives had left her one after another, her elder brother and sister were abroad, and the vast Wang Corporation had fallen entirely on her shoulders.
Her peers her age were still in sweet romances, snuggling in their boyfriends’ arms and acting spoiled, while she was bearing burdens that were too heavy for her age.
But Qin Xuan was no different. In fact, no one understood Wang Yu Yan better than Qin Xuan.
Their experiences were almost identical.
“I’m sorry, Yu Yan.” Qin Xuan said with some guilt.
Wang Yu Yan didn’t speak, but quietly nestled in Qin Xuan’s embrace. She didn’t know what the final outcome for them would be.
She knew Qin Xuan would not abandon Tantai Yue, and she didn’t want to break them up. Yet, she liked Qin Xuan deeply.
This made Wang Yu Yan’s emotions incredibly complicated.
