Chapter 1279: Wen Xinya, How Silly Are You?

Wen Xinya had remained silent throughout the journey home. Whenever they drove past the traffic lights, the red hues would shine on her face, highlighting her beautiful features.

Although she did not wish to pursue or find out more about some stuff, it did not mean that she was a fool. The floral hairpin that Xu Zhenyu had given her on the day of her coming-of-age ceremony was still sitting in an obscure corner of her dressing table. The change in Xu Zhenyu’s attitude after Si Yiyan came by to visit her, as well as his animosity towards Si Yiyan...

All of that reminded her of an undeniable truth!

It forced her to stop deceiving herself and others. She had no choice but to face reality.

Actually, she felt that it was only understandable, after giving it some thought.

After all, Xu Zhenyu felt the same about her in her previous lifetime.

The only reason she had refused to accept his feelings for her was that they were too complicated and pressurizing. They were mixed with sympathy, pity, gratitude, curiosity, and pride. She could not accept his love for her at all, because it was as if he was guarding her out of sympathy and hence, she felt extremely pressured.

After her rebirth, she did not get to interact much with Xu Zhenyu and she thought that he would never fall in love with her again since there had already been changes in his destiny. Yet, the same thing happened even after various twists and turns.

That was probably her destiny.

However, be it in her previous lifetime or her present, she was destined to turn down Xu Zhenyu and reject his pursuit.

They slowly pulled up in their private parking lot in the carpark below their apartment. Si Yiyan looked at her and said, “We’re here!”

Wen Xinya snapped out of her trance and subconsciously turned to look at Si Yiyan. “What did you say?”

Si Yiyan released his safety belt before leaning towards her to remove hers. “We’re here!”

Wen Xinya finally recovered from the shock and expressed assent.

Si Yiyan alighted and opened the door for Wen Xinya. They then boarded the special elevator and returned to their apartment.

As soon as they entered, Wen Xinya kicked off her shoes and walked barefooted towards the couch. Her brain was foggy and she was feeling lethargic and uncomfortable, perhaps because of the alcohol.

Si Yiyan headed to the kitchen and soon returned with a glass of honey water. “Have some honey water. It helps with getting rid of the alcoholic effects.”

Wen Xinya grabbed it and finished it in one gulp.

“Do you feel better?” Si Yiyan asked, staring at her flushed face with a frown. She did have quite a bit to drink tonight.

Although the honey water did not make her feel that much better, Wen Xinya nodded nonetheless and said, “Don’t worry, I’m feeling much better!”

She knew that she was feeling upset because of Xu Zhenyu, not the alcohol.

Si Yiyan said, “I’ll go prepare some water so that you can take a bath. You’ll get to relax!”

Wen Xinya expressed assent before looking up at Si Yiyan. “Si Yiyan, you...”

Wen Xinya paused.

Si Yiyan should have already known long ago, right? He was clearly going against Xu Zhenyu during the gathering, and the rest were making it so obvious too. I’d be a fool if I couldn’t tell.

Actually, she already had some sort of a hunch after receiving the gift from Xu Zhenyu during her coming-of-age ceremony. However, she hoped to maintain the trust between them and kept things purely platonic. Hence, she did not think much of it.

Si Yiyan grabbed the glass in her hand and chuckled while asking, “What are you trying to say?”

Si Yiyan already knew that there was something on her mind.

Wen Xinya rubbed her forehead and suddenly wailed. “I wanted to say... that my head hurts...”

It was indeed a major headache. After thinking about Xu Zhenyu’s behavioral changes after he visited her during the military training program, she could not help but reprimand herself for being so foolish as to think that Xu Zhenyu was simply upset about the fact that she did not tell him about her relationship.

Wen Xinya, how silly are you!?!

Reminded of how angst Xu Zhenyu was, she thought, He must have been feeling miserable then!

Not only did she fail to understand his misery, she even roamed in front of him every now and then. It was no wonder that he was so eager about leaving Capital city right after the military training program ended. It was not for an emergency mission at all. Instead, he was just trying to avoid her.

Wen Xinya had a sullen expression on her face. She did not wish for there to be a strain on her friendship with Xu Zhenyu just because he had feelings for her. She did not want them to grow distant from each other too.

Si Yiyan’s eyes lit up and pulled her into his embrace. Rubbing her forehead meticulously, he said, “You’ve probably just drunk too much. I’ll rub your forehead for you.”

There were untouchable boundaries and secrets deep within everyone’s hearts. Since Wen Xinya was not willing to share them with him, he wouldn’t probe further.

Wen Xinya’s behavior during the gathering already proved her devotion towards him. In that case, there was no need for him to be jealous and cause a strain on their relationship. Even if he felt jealous, he ought to keep it to himself and suppress his feelings of uneasiness.

Finally feeling relieved, Wen Xinya called his name softly, “Si Yiyan?”

“Yes?”

Wen Xinya muttered, “I love you!”

Si Yiyan paused in his actions before proceeding to massage her again. “I know!”

Wen Xinya closed her eyes and laid in his arms with a smile hanging from her lips.

Men were more sensitive than women when it came to rivals in love. Since men were born with the primate sense of sovereignty, they would naturally detest those who harbored designs on their prey. Being extremely intelligent, Si Yiyan obviously understood that.

However, she chose not to tell Si Yiyan about Xu Zhenyu’s feelings towards her, not because she was afraid that he would get jealous, but rather, she wanted to save some pride for Xu Zhenyu and avoid bruising his ego.

At the same time, Xu Zhenyu did not express his feelings towards her explicitly either. That meant that he was planning to keep them buried deep within his heart. Even if she knew how he felt, she still had to respect him. After all, she and Si Yiyan were in love with each other and it would be an insult to Xu Zhenyu if she were to expose him.

Besides, she did not want to reveal this to anyone else because she knew that once it was exposed, she would grow even further apart from Xu Zhenyu. She was willing to keep this secret deep within her heart. She wanted to give Xu Zhenyu enough time, trust and faith. She would accompany him... while he slowly got over her.

She believed that the prideful Xu Zhenyu would be able to do it.
