Chapter 645: Turn Around I'm Right Behind You_1

For some people, spoken words become promises.

But she doesn’t want such a commitment!

It’s too heavy; she can’t handle it.

A lifetime is too long.

So does that mean, regardless of when she asks, he would drop everything to be her husband?

What if he was already married, already had a wife and children, would he simply abandon them to be with her if she asked?

No, she didn’t want such a commitment at all!

But Dongfang Jin laughed, tousled her hair, and gently flicked her nose with his long finger.

“Don’t put so much pressure on yourself. Pretend that I didn’t say anything. Just remember, no matter when you turn around, I will be right there behind you. Remembering this is enough.”

Suddenly, his grip tightened and he pulled her into his arms.

Baili Xia startled, her hands fell on his chest, ready to push him away.

But Dongfang Jin bent his head down, his thin lips close to her ear, his words soft and gentle.

“Let me hold you, just for a moment.”

“Jin…” She really wanted to push him away, but he was holding her so tightly, she simply couldn’t break free.

She was truly anxious, Uncle always comes around this time, it’s almost time.

If he didn’t let go, what would she do if Uncle saw them?

“You don’t need to be so nervous. I never said I would take advantage of you. Although, I really want to.”

Eventually, Dongfang Jin let her go.

As soon as he let go, she quickly stepped back, keeping her distance from him.

A touch of helplessness, along with a trace of bitterness, flashed across Dongfang Jin’s eyes.

But this bitterness simply flickered and faded in his eyes.

When he looked at Baili Xia again, his eyes were filled with smiles.

“Wait for me to come back. You have my number; you can call me anytime. My phone is on 24 hours a day, just for you.”

After one final glance at her, he finally left.

Returning to his car, he couldn’t help but look back at her.

But Baili Xia turned around, walking towards the elevator.

She couldn’t stay there any longer.

If she did, who knew how long Jin would stick around before leaving.

It was already past eleven, there wasn’t much time left.

Once at the airport, she still had to park, check her luggage, and get her boarding pass.

Time couldn’t be wasted like this.

Dongfang Jin had left, and although Baili Xia didn’t look back, she could hear the sound of his car driving away.

It wasn’t until the sound of the engine was no more that she finally let out a long sigh.

She wasn’t sure, whether it was a relief, or if there was a bit of disappointment.

But she couldn’t help but look back, staring in the direction where his car had disappeared.

She stood there for a while, not moving.

There was really a moment just now, when she really wanted to tell Jin to take her away, take her away from the Mu family!

Not because she wanted to be with Dongfang Jin, but because she simply didn’t want to live under Uncle’s control anymore.

No matter who it was, as long as they were willing and capable of taking her away, she was willing to agree.

However, those impulsive thoughts were eventually suppressed by rationality.

Uncle had told her to make her own money.

As long as she could make enough money and cancel the agreement with him, he would let her leave.

Any other method to him would simply be a betrayal.

For those who betrayed him, Uncle would definitely be ruthless.

She didn’t have the guts to challenge him.

She didn’t want to drag an innocent person down with her and, in the end, cause him to lose everything.
