Rebirth in the 90s: Her Counterattack and Redemption

Chapter 451: Chapter 269: First Kiss

Luo Ye’s teasing quickly filled Ye Xuan’s eyes with joy: ”From the first time we met, you’ve been making fun of me. I thought I had no image in Ye’er’s eyes at all.”

”Now I really don’t have an image!”

”It doesn’t matter if I don’t have one now, as long as I have Ye’er!”

Mou Ye felt a headache coming on, finding that after Handsome Ye confessed, his mouth was as sweet as honey, and way too much of it – sickeningly sweet.

”No more jokes. Uncle is just worried that I’m with you out of gratitude. He’s a good father, thinking of you in all respects,” Luo Ye stopped teasing Ye Xuan and answered truthfully.

”He indeed is a good father. I understand what he’s been worried about. Ye’er...” Ye Xuan coughed awkwardly: ”Although I’m so much older than you, I assure you, this is my first love.”

”Are you shy?” Luo Ye smiled and reached out to touch Ye Xuan’s cheek: ”So cute, you’re even blushing.”

”I’m not blushing, it’s the lighting.”

”Right, right, it’s the lighting. Or maybe it’s a problem with my eyes.” Luo Ye teasingly laughed, and glanced at the time: ”Oops, it’s almost 9 o’clock, I must go back.”

”I’ll take you.”

Luo Ye pressed down on Ye Xuan’s arm: ”No need, even though our relationship has been reported, we still need to be discreet, to avoid gossip.”

Ye Xuan pulled her in smoothly, and the unsuspecting Mou Ye immediately fell into his embrace, he whispered in her ear: ”You little rascal, thinking of running away?”

The warm breath in her ear made Luo Ye’s cheeks turn a flushed red. She struggled with effort: ”Stop it, let go of me, it’s getting late, I need to hurry back.”

Ye Xuan held her tight in his arms: ”Let me hold you for a bit.”

Luo Ye hesitated for a moment, stopped struggling, and leaned her red face against his chest: ”Okay, just for a little bit.”

”Ye’er is so nice.” Ye Xuan lowered his head to sniff the fragrance of Luo Ye’s hair and murmured softly: ”I really hope time flies, so I can marry Ye’er home soon.”

”Brother Ye... uh... I want to know, when did you start liking me?”

”When?” Ye Xuan gave a bitter smile: ”If I think back, it must have been love at first sight, but back then I couldn’t tell myself, I always thought it was just the affection for a little sister and I fixated on your age, feeling that liking such a young girl was a sin. Later, working on my dad’s case, the more I got involved, and the more I knew you, my heart grew closer. I often couldn’t control my thoughts of you, wanting to see you. I was frightened by my own feelings, and there was a time when I really was running away... wanted to escape far away...”

Luo Ye cut him off: ”It should be when the case was winding down and you suddenly went missing, right?”

”Yes, it was during that time I finally came to terms with my feelings and I decided to face them, becoming the chief instructor for GF’s freshmen boot camp was actually a role I actively sought out. During the boot camp, Qing Zhu even specifically advised me to confront my own feelings to prevent future regret. Little did she know, before I even became the instructor, I had already made my decision to protect Ye’er.”

”Alright, you have to always be good to me, and if you dare to do something to betray me, I’ll... I’ll...”

Seeing her becoming anxious because she couldn’t find the right words, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but laugh lightly: ”Silly girl, you’re about to twist your eyebrows into wrinkles.”

Luo Ye glared at him and caught his purple-black eyes, her heart skipped a beat, and she started bargaining: ”Listen, from today on, you are mine, you’re not allowed to smile at other women, got it?”

”Not even at my mom?”

”Uh... that’s okay.”

”My sister?”

”Uh... that’s also okay.”

”How about your mom?”

”Stop it, are you going to list my grandma, your grandma, your aunt, my aunt, and so on? You know I’m not including relatives, you’re obviously doing this just to tease me!”

Ye Xuan nodded with a light laugh: ”I promise, apart from relatives, I won’t smile at any other women.”

”That’s more like it. Those eyes of yours are too much for most people to resist; we must prevent troubles before they happen...” Luo Ye pondered some more and continued: ”You can help others, but don’t indiscriminately help women out of pity, to avoid incurring romantic entanglements that can’t be shaken off.”

”Alright!”

”You can only love me and treat me well in this lifetime.”

”Definitely!”

”What else? Let me think...” Luo Ye blinked her eyes and continued to ponder.

”Take your time.” Ye Xuan traced his fingers on her tender cheeks, feeling blissful inside. Concern breeds demands, fear of loss shows love; the more she asked of him, the heavier he weighed in her heart!

Feeling her heart about to leap out of her chest, Luo Ye quickly pressed Ye Xuan’s hand that was wandering on her cheek: ”Stop that, do you think my face is a blackboard?”

”Is there such a beautiful blackboard in this world?” Ye Xuan stared at Luo Ye’s blushing cheeks, his voice hoarse: ”Ye’er...”

”Yes?”

”Let’s complete our ceremony.”

”What ceremony?” Luo Ye looked at him, bewildered.

Big hands pinched her pointy chin, forcing her to look straight at him, the deep affection in his amethyst eyes scorching her cheeks with heat. Realizing what was about to happen, she unnaturally pursed her lips.

Her inadvertent movement seemed more like a silent invitation. His eyes darkened further, and he leaned down to plant a light kiss on her forehead. His lips slowly moved down, and her chest heaved violently as she shyly closed her eyes.

His warm lips gently pecked down, lightly nibbling on her soft lips. The sweet scent of the young girl made his heart burn with more fervor. He tentatively extended the tip of his tongue, knocking on her pearly teeth, searching and suckling...

Unable to hold back, she instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck, awkwardly entwining with him in passion. Lost in intoxication, both wished for time to stand still, to be by each other’s side forever.

Feeling their body temperature rising, he strove to suppress his longing, reluctantly leaving her soft lips to peck on her enticing cheeks, ”I’ve marked you, Ye’er can’t back out now.”

”You’re the same,” Mou Ye replied, shyly burrowing into his embrace, ”I’ve realized a problem—you’re too domineering!”

He chuckled lightly, ”Without being domineering, how could I marry Ye’er? What I want is to block all your retreats, so from now on, you can only move forward, never backward.”

”Bad guy!” She pouted and thumped his chest, ”Let me go quickly, I really need to get back.”

”Alright then.” He helped her stand, ”Truly, the gentle land is a hero’s tomb; I don’t want to be apart from Ye’er for even a moment now.”

”Stop being sappy.” Luo Ye pushed him away and ran off, ”Don’t send me off, goodnight.”

Knowing she was simply shy and worried about being seen by others, and considering the safety of the military courtyard, he didn’t insist further, sat back down, but found he couldn’t settle himself, so he simply tied on weight bags and went for a run.

Watching Ye Xuan’s retreating figure, Xiao Song was puzzled, ”I’ve noticed the boss is acting out of the ordinary!”

Xiao Liang laughed heartily, ”Silly, it’s pretty obvious.”

Xiao Song looked expectant, ”Tell me, what’s going on?”

Xiao Liang shook his head, ”Not telling!”

Xiao Song: ”...”

...

After leaving Ye Xuan’s tent, Luo Ye didn’t rush back to her quarters. She strolled around until she felt her complexion returned to normal, then headed for the recreation area.

”Little Ye’er, had a date?” Mou Ye was by the staircase when Feng Tianzhi came over to greet her.

Luo Ye smiled sweetly, ”Yes, does Commander Feng have a problem?” She was in high spirits, and since Ye Xuan had already reported their relationship, she wasn’t concerned about any repercussions.

Moreover, she hoped that by doing so, Commander Feng would stop pursuing her. Since she demanded Ye Xuan’s fidelity, shouldn’t she lead by example?

”No problem, I saw you fluttering over like a light butterfly from afar and guessed that a girl in such a state was probably going on a date, so I waited here to confirm.”

”Congratulations, you guessed right, goodbye!” Luo Ye waved and bounded up the stairs light-footed.

Feng Tianzhi squinted his eyes, ”It seems I underestimated him. You think I would give up so easily? If it were that easy to quit, I wouldn’t be Feng Tianzhi!”

”What if you don’t give up?”

Feng Tianzhi turned at the sound, seeing Ye Qingzhu standing at the second-floor stairway watching him.

”If you’re willing, we could give it a try,” Feng Tianzhi said with a light chuckle, ”I can accept being Ye Xuan’s brother-in-law.”

A mocking smile curled up on Ye Qingzhu’s lips, ”My, that changed quickly, didn’t it? Just now, you said you wouldn’t give up, and now you can accept me?”

Feng Tianzhi waved his hand, ”Don’t flatter yourself, I didn’t say I accept you, just that we could try.”

”Really arrogant. I’m not interested in trying, warning you to stay away from Ye’er, or don’t blame me for being impolite!”

”What can you do if I’m impolite? Pursuing someone is my right!” Feng Tianzhi’s expression darkened, ”I’ve given you enough face by talking this long, and you still dare to be so bossy, you’re really full of yourself!”

”Alas!” Ye Qingzhu sighed, ”Why were you born male? With your personality, the pose of hands on hips, one finger pointing, suits you so well!”

”Qing Zhu, who are you talking to?” Along with the query, Cui Xuetao appeared at the stairway, but upon seeing Feng Tianzhi standing below, her smile quickly faded, ”Qing Zhu, please don’t tell me you like him too.”

”Me, like him?” Ye Qingzhu snorted, ”Even if all the men in the world were dead, I wouldn’t like him!” With that, she turned to head to her room.

Cui Xuetao hesitated momentarily before attempting to descend the stairs, but Feng Tianzhi had already left without looking back.

”Jerk!” Cui Xuetao stomped her foot and returned to her room.

...

The next morning at 10 am, the commendation ceremony officially began.

”Luoluo...” Xing Nong held onto Luo Ye’s wrist, ”Can the three of us stay together forever? It’s almost time for the announcement, and I’m so nervous.”

”Even if we can’t all be selected, we’ve been together for these four years. Even if we fail, we can still participate in the selection next year. Can’t you just relax a bit?”

”I can’t help it.” Xing Nong took a deep breath, but it didn’t ease much, her face still tense.
