Chapter 508: Can I call him again_1

Nangong Yun’s suggestions for helping him, Baili Xia needs to first go home and think of a plan before deciding.

These are not things she can accomplish alone.

Maybe, she should seek out Dongfang Ji.

So, she is not rushed now, ‘Haste spells waste.’

She has to wait, wait until the timing is right.

“Are you going to walk home?” Dongfang Jin, standing behind her and not keeping pace, casually inquired.

In his heart, he was still struggling with something inexplicably.

“No, I’m going to take the bus.”

Baili Xia turned back to look at him, still wearing a light smile on her face.

But this smile somehow frustrated Dongfang Jin.

“Why are you always like this?

Never changing?”

Baili Xia blinked her dewy eyes, not understanding why he suddenly chastised her.

Always like what?

Like what?

This innocent look from her increased Dongfang Jin’s suffocation.

Taking a big step forward, he looked at her tear-streaked yet not fully dried face, his expression darkening.

“If you’re not in a good mood, why force a smile?

A smile worse than tears, what’s the point of wearing such a smile on your face?”

Baili Xia’s lips move, wanting to argue, but in the end, she still smiled.

“Haven’t you heard the saying?

Smile, and the world becomes more beautiful, smile and your mood will just get better.”

“No, even if you smile, your mood won’t get better, you only smile to make others feel better.”

Dongfang Jin exhaled a breath, an unknown fire burning in his chest, making him slightly erratic.

Only after these words left his mouth did he realize how wrong it was to scold her like this, wasn’t she innocent?

She smiled at him, just to comfort him.

Wanted to tell him that she’s okay so that he wouldn’t worry.

But when she smiles, doesn’t it hurt her inside?

“If you’re not feeling well and want to cry, then cry, why the need for such a false expression in front of me?”

His voice softened slightly, and his eyes were not that cold either.

But Baili Xia was a bit confused, was he annoyed with her, or was he not annoyed anymore?

The way he looked at her made Dongfang Jin feel irritated unconsciously.

In the end, he suddenly grabbed her wrist, and turned back the way he came: “Walk with me.”

“Wait a moment…” Baili Xia immediately frowned, trying to stop him from leading her.

“Even just a walk isn’t allowed?” He growled irritably.

In the past, didn’t he often hold her hand and walk everywhere?

Now, why isn’t it possible?

Just a walk, is that not allowed?

Baili Xia’s brows tightened further, still whimpering.

“Hold on, Jin, hold on.

My hand hurts, don’t touch me.”

Dongfang Jin was startled and quickly eased the force he was holding her with.

He held her hand, turned it over to check, but couldn’t see any signs of injury.

“No, my shoulder was bumped a bit, it hurts a bit, don’t be too rough with me.”

Baili Xia gently pushed, pushing his large hand away.

Dongfang Jin glanced at her shoulder and moved his fingers a bit.

The words he wanted to tell her to show him her shoulder almost slipped out, but in the end, he swallowed it down.

They were outside, how could he ask to see her shoulder?

Besides, there should be no undue familiarity between men and women.

But what did she just call him?

Jin?

The two words Jin, instantly stirred up countless ripples in his heart.

Jin, being called so casually, messed up his pretense of a calm heart.

Jin, Jin, these two words coming from her mouth, inexplicably soured his heart.

Jin… could she, call him that once more?
