Craven quickly accepted the shocking fact.
It didn’t matter. Bing had been honest from the start that she had someone she liked, and she hadn’t lied to him. It didn’t conflict with whether she liked him or not.
He could not tell his age from the phone.
Craven took it for granted that Ji Yinbing’s boyfriend was definitely a student from another university. He took out the generosity of a genius and said arrogantly to Yan Nuo, “Kid, don’t be too smug. In this society, it’s not surprising to have a boyfriend. You can even divorce after getting married.”
He did not notice that the ‘boy’ he was referring to was the leader of the famous Black Fiend Mercenary Group, the Yan family’s leader. Craven was still spouting nonsense on the other end of the phone. He said, “You’re not always by Bing’s side, are you? Have you heard that saying? Love grows with time.”
Yan Nuo gritted his teeth and replied in Chinese, “You won’t last a day.” Then, he hung up.
Craven looked confused.
“What the f*ck?” He carefully thought through the words in an awkward voice. He guessed that he might asking him to try it if he had the guts?
Craven narrowed his eyes and smiled. Hey, he was in a good mood to upset Bing’s boyfriend.
Ji Yinbing was about to fall asleep when Yan Nuo kissed her awake.
“Huh? Yan Nuo?” Before Ji Yinbing could open her eyes, she heard Yan Nuo’s dark voice. “Sweetheart?” He bit her neck as if he was punishing her.
Ji Yinbing could sense a strong sense of danger from Yan Nuo’s sweet words.
She was stunned. “What?”
Yan Nuo kissed her until her face turned red, and Ji Yinbing had no choice but to push him away.
She crawled out of his arms and sat on the sofa before asking Yan Nuo, “What are you doing?”
Yan Nuo pointed at his phone with a gloomy expression.
“A child called Craven just now. He called you Sweetheart.”
Ji Yinbing’s head hurt.
Yan Nuo was like a negotiation expert. His sharp eyes scraped Ji Yinbing’s face like knives, adding pressure to her. “I think you should give me an explanation.”
Ji Yinbing did not feel guilty.
She said frankly, “Craven likes me. I rejected him. To be honest, it’s been more than a month since we last spoke on the phone.”
“Continue.”
Ji Yinbing continued, “He’s a very smart person. He’s quite accomplished in medicine. He’ll become a top doctor in the future. I respect him very much and cherish such an opponent. Of course, I don’t love him.” She looked at Yan Nuo and said bluntly, “In this world, I only love you.”
Yan Nuo did not doubt Ji Yinbing’s love for him.
“On the eighth of last month, I’ve already told Craven clearly that I don’t like him, and I told him not to chase me anymore. In fact, he has indeed been very obedient for the past month and hasn’t harassed me.”
“Okay, I’m done. Your turn.”
Ji Yinbing stood upright. She did not feel guilty or angry.
If there was a misunderstanding in a relationship, it was fine to explain it clearly. The biggest taboo was to vent your anger and sulk. That would only ruin the relationship.
Yan Nuo looked at her calm face and felt a little tired.
He sighed and said, “If only you were uglier.”
Ji Yinbing was stunned.
“What?”
“If you’re ugly, you won’t be so dazzling.” Yan Nuo looked at Ji Yinbing in confusion. He asked a world-class question. “Why are you so lovable?”
Ji Yinbing blushed again.
‘What was this?
Was she being teased?
Yan Nuo did not go overboard with this matter. In fact, he seemed very easy to talk to.
He left America on the 27th, and Ji Yinbing sent him to the airport.
The two of them hugged and kissed goodbye at the airport. Before Yan Nuo went to the security check, he said to Ji Yinbing, “Stay away from all the men who have improper thoughts about you. Yinbing, never underestimate a man’s jealousy.”
Yan Nuo’s eyes were murderous when he said this.
Ji Yinbing’s heart skipped a beat.
She remained silent and watched as Yan Nuo left. Ji Yinbing was in no hurry to go back. She only went home after confirming that the plane had taken off.
After school started, Craven didn’t harass Ji Yinbing.
However, Ji Yinbing realized that there were always strange things happening around her.
For example, when she wanted to go to the library, no matter how many people there were, once she went, there would be people who took the initiative to get up and leave. When it was raining and she did not bring an umbrella, there would always be people who would leave an umbrella in a conspicuous
place. There was also one time when she wanted to go to the city to represent the school in attending an oral conference held by many schools. She was delayed by something and was almost late, but a taxi appeared in front of her.
At first, Ji Yinbing did not notice these abnormalities.
However, as time passed, there were too many such coincidences. Ji Yinbing finally realized that something was wrong.
That night, when she was on the phone with Yan Nuo, Ji Yinbing said, “Don’t work so hard in the future. You’re already busy enough every day, but you still have to pay attention to me.”
“What?” Yan Nuo did not understand her.
Ji Yinbing said, “You still want to lie to me. Do you think I didn’t notice? Every time I go to the library, there will always be someone who happens to leave and give me a place. Do you still want to hide it from me?” Yan Nuo had asked her to return the plane tickets last time, but then he didn’t explain at all
and came to America to see her without a word, wanting to surprise her.
Ji Yinbing thought that Yan Nuo was the one who did what happened to her these few months.
Yan Nuo fell silent.
Ji Yinbing could sense something unusual from his silence. She asked, “Not you?”
“It’s not me.” Yan Nuo’s voice sounded very cold.
Ji Yinbing said, “That might be a coincidence.”
She hung up the phone and did not take this to heart.
Around May, Ji Yinbing bumped into Craven at school. Unlike the arrogant young man from before, Craven was actually leaning on a cane this time! Ji Yinbing stood in the distance and stared at him for a while. In the end, she still walked towards him.
Craven saw her.
He probably wanted to smile at her, and when he curled his lips, he realized that his smile was stiff. It had to be a smile worse than crying. Craven decided not to smile.
“Craven, what happened to your leg?”
Craven said, “Accidentally hit by a car.”
Ji Yinbing asked a few questions, but was confused by Craven’s relaxed tone.
“Be careful on the streets in the future. You think about things when you walk. This is very dangerous.”
“Yes.”
Craven never expected that Ji Yinbing’s concern would be given to him in such a situation.
Craven looked at Ji Yinbing’s back view with a complicated expression.
During her vacation, Ji Yinbing prepared to return to India. Before she left, she went to Zhuang Long’s place and asked for his notes and a few books that she needed to borrow to read. She planned to bring them back to the country to read. Zhuang Long found everything and put them in a bag.
Ji Yinbing was about to leave with her things when Zhuang Long suddenly said from behind her, “Bingbing, Yan Nuo is very possessive of you. Pay more attention in the future..”
