Chapter 278: Chapter 277: Who (5 more)

I thought things would just end like that.

However, when Jin Ruiyang walked out of the hotel with Xu Sisi, the landlady pulled Xu Sisi aside and said,

"Little Black Sister, you’ve got some charm, huh! Aiyo, last night I saw you two hugging and kissing so fiercely, tsk tsk tsk, no more, no more, this old lady’s face is blushing."

After she finished, the landlady even gave Jin Ruiyang a sly glance.

The landlady was so absorbed in her gossip that she completely failed to notice that the two of them stood frozen in place upon hearing her words, struck as if by lightning.

They wore expressions as if they’d been struck by a tragic bolt of lightning.

When they walked out of the hotel, both Xu Sisi and Jin Ruiyang had suspicious flushes on their faces, only Jin Ruiyang was much paler than Xu Sisi, making it more obvious.

Xu Sisi’s head was about to explode.

All she had in mind was what the landlady said.

She and Jin Yuyang actually kissed, and it was a fierce one at that.

Done for.

With her daily fixation on handsome guys, she definitely must have been the one hugging and fiercely kissing Jin Ruiyang last night.

Oh my goodness.

She had just brazenly told him that nothing happened, yet she had actually forced a kiss on him.

And to make things worse, the landlady had seen it all, it definitely must have been her who forced the kiss on Jin Ruiyang.

Jin Ruiyang, a man of such grace and gentle elegance, even if he were drunk, he would surely not do something so out of line.

She was one hundred percent certain it was she who had forced the kiss on Jin Ruiyang.

What to do? What to do? So nervous, how was she to explain?

Wuwuwu...

Xu Sisi was embarrassingly close to a breakdown for the first time in her life.

Jin Ruiyang wasn’t fairing much better than her.

Thunderous uproar was inadequate to describe his mindset at that moment.

Because the moment the landlady spoke those words, a scene from last night flashed through his mind.

It went like this—

Xu Sisi was supporting him; the girl was also quite drunk.

Right when he was paying the landlady, he turned back to see Xu Sisi’s red lips and, as if possessed, he pressed her against the counter and kissed her fervently in front of the landlady.

Suddenly, Jin Ruiyang raised a hand to his lips.

Darn it, he had shown his rogue nature the moment he drank.

And he had kissed a girl who was not at all his type.

While Jin Ruiyang was tangled in self-reproach, Xu Sisi suddenly called out to him, "Wait a minute."

Jin Ruiyang, who had just snapped out of his memories, stiffened abruptly, mechanically turning his head to look at Xu Sisi.

The gentle smile on his lips was now half-frozen.

Jin Ruiyang was pondering on how to apologize.

But suddenly, the girl in front of him bowed to him at a ninety-degree angle, saying urgently, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, please forgive me, I didn’t mean to force a kiss on you, I was drunk last night and didn’t know what was happening, if you’re angry, then, then, just hit me to vent your anger."

Xu Sisi, as if on her way to the guillotine, suddenly raised her head, her expression one of tragic resolve.

"I ruined your innocence, rest assured, if you really want to beat me to death, I won’t run away, at most I’ll just cry a little."

Her crisp voice sounded anxious and annoyed, full of a thick sense of apology, as if she had committed some kind of unforgivable sin.

Jin Ruiyang suddenly found this voice extremely familiar, as if he had heard it somewhere before.

Looking at her dark, smooth skin.

Jin Ruiyang suddenly recalled that phrase "the darker it is, the more heat it absorbs"...

The two voices overlapped in his mind, confirming for Jin Ruiyang that she was indeed that "the darker it is, the more heat it absorbs."

Seeing her tragically resolved expression, Jin Ruiyang could no longer hold back, and he began to shake with laughter.

The gold-rimmed glasses on his face slid off due to his constant shaking.

Xu Sisi caught them reflexively, then held them up reverently with both hands, presenting them in front of Jin Ruiyang.

"Your glasses..."

Xu Sisi bit her lip, so embarrassed she wished she could find a place to hide.

She hadn’t expected herself to do something so crazed after getting drunk.

Jin Ruiyang didn’t immediately take his glasses, his slender eyes slightly squinted, his voice extraordinarily gentle—his most genuine voice.

In front of others, he always liked to speak with an extra layer of elegance to charm young aunties.

But now it was a natural, subconscious gentleness.

He curved his lips into a shallow smile, looking at Xu Sisi with a soft voice slowly approaching, "How can you be sure it wasn’t I who kissed you forcefully?"

Xu Sisi’s eyes immediately widened, "How is that possible!"

"How is it not possible?" Jin Ruiyang asked, his eyes intensely fixed on Xu Sisi.

Xu Sisi felt her face flush under his gaze, "Anyway, it’s just not possible. You’re such a cultured person, even if you were drunk, you definitely wouldn’t do something so outrageous."

"Oh..." Jin Ruiyang’s voice rose at the end, "Then how can you be so sure that you would do such a thing?"

Xu Sisi, captivated by his gentle and soft voice, grabbed her hair in distress with a bitter expression, "It should be very certain because I like you, and you don’t like me. So, even if I was drunk, it must have been I who kissed you forcefully, right?"

Her candid expression of her feelings momentarily stunned Jin Ruiyang, "You... like me?"

Seeing his dumbfounded expression, Xu Sisi’s large, dark eyes curled into a smile, "Well, don’t feel pressured, I just casually like you. I won’t pester you endlessly..."

As she spoke, Xu Sisi remembered the incident of her kissing him forcefully and frowned with worry, bowing deeply to Jin Ruiyang once again.

"So, about me kissing you forcefully last night, if it really bothers you, or makes you uncomfortable, then you can hit me. Don’t worry, I won’t think it’s wrong for a man to hit a woman, nor will I talk about it. Rascals deserve a beating, whether they’re female rascals or male rascals, so please, hit me."

He had never encountered a girl like her before.

Usually adept among women, he found himself at a loss for words this time.

This little girl... Could her personality be any cuter?

Jin Ruiyang suddenly burst into laughter, helping her up, "Last night, it was I who kissed you forcefully. I should be the one apologizing. I remember now."

As Xu Sisi was helped up, she just caught sight of his lips curving into a light smile and, for a moment, forgot to react.

He’s so handsome...

The handsomeness of Jin Ruiyang was of a refined, graceful sort... it was hardly enough to just call him handsome.

It should be described as beautiful.

It took her a while to grasp what he had said, and Xu Sisi was deeply moved, "You really are a good person."

To think he’d comfort her.

How could he possibly have kissed her forcefully...

He was so handsome, so fair... and she was so dark... and not pretty...

Jin Ruiyang, a recipient of an unexpected compliment, "...I was telling the truth."

Xu Sisi knew Jin Ruiyang was comforting her, and she was incredibly touched. He was so kind, not only did he not blame her, but he even comforted her.

"Then you are also a good person," Xu Sisi said.

Jin Ruiyang again was at a loss for words, "...."

"I kissed you forcefully, and you still think I’m a good person?"

He found the girl’s thought process to be quite unique.

And yet, there was something even more unique.

She looked at him earnestly and said, "I like you, so if you, despite not liking me, kissed me forcefully, wouldn’t you have done a good deed, even to your own detriment?"

Jin Ruiyang, "...."

He was at a loss for words.

The statement sounded strange, but upon closer analysis, he suddenly felt it was flawless.

Wait, realizing his thoughts were being led astray by hers, Jin Ruiyang couldn’t help but laugh and cry at the same time.

In the sunlight, he looked at Xu Sisi’s brilliant smile... it was so dark it shone!

Being this dark and not seeming unattractive—how beautiful would she be if she were fair?

Her complexion was similar to that of the brothers in the army.

Jin Ruiyang couldn’t tan, which was due to his natural fair skin and good genetic inheritance, always pale no matter how much sun he got.

But as a man, he certainly hoped to be darker. If only he could switch skin with Xu Sisi.

Feeling his continuous stare, Xu Sisi became somewhat embarrassed, "Brother Ruiyang... um, may I call you that?"

"Feel free," Jin Ruiyang replied with pursed lips and a smile in his eyes.

He found that this girl truly had a straightforward personality.

Hearing his consent, Xu Sisi, as if she’d won the lottery, saw her large, shiny eyes light up like the stars.

"Really, that’s great!"

Her happiness was too obvious, and Jin Ruiyang squinted his eyes, wondering how someone could express their emotions so openly on their face.

Smile when happy, speak when joyful, completely unconcerned about the opinions of others, such a stark contrast to him who always had to put up a front in front of others.

Finally, Jin Ruiyang escorted Xu Sisi back to school, and before she entered, she actually asked him again, "Brother Ruiyang, you really won’t hit me?"

Jin Ruiyang laughed, "No, I won’t."

He had lost count of how many times this girl had made him laugh.
