Sweet Nostalgia of the 80s

Chapter 190: Chapter 189: It’s So Good to Have You

Facing his earnest expression, An Hao suddenly found herself unable to speak.

But when she thought about the reasonableness of his words, that she would have to call him by his name sooner or later, she, who had lived an extra life already, thought, why be so coy?

An Hao cleared her throat and looked into Qin Jian’s eyes, which were like water, and called out softly, ”Qin Jian...”

Her voice was soft, with the breath at the end trembling slightly, sounding very pleasant, like a pure white feather sweeping across her heart.

Qin Jian’s heart missed a beat, then suddenly accelerated.

Their gazes locked in the air for a long time; An Hao looked into his eyes that were as profound as the ocean, and a blush spread over her fair face, inch by inch, down to the root of her neck.

He seemed to enjoy looking at her like that, but it seemed that she couldn’t quite bear his gaze at the moment.

An Hao slightly turned her face away, glancing off into the distance.

Suddenly, she heard Qin Jian’s voice beside her ear, ”Where did the courage go that you had when you kissed me before?”

”Pfft... cough cough...” An Hao almost choked on her own saliva, ”I... I was impulsive at the moment.”

”I like your impulsiveness,” Qin Jian said earnestly.

An Hao: ”...” Scoundrel, how come I never knew you were so good at flirting in the last life.

Seeing An Hao’s shy expression, Qin Jian smiled and withdrew his gaze, ”I heard people discussing your affairs when I came back. What’s the deal with you and Song Yueqin?”

An Hao recounted everything that had happened yesterday morning to Qin Jian, who found it somewhat unbelievable.

”Isn’t she your friend?” How could there be a situation where two women are fighting?

”But...” An Hao stopped speaking just as she was about to continue.

”But what?” Qin Jian pressed her for an answer.

Looking into his deep eyes, An Hao’s heart stirred slightly, and she decided to tell him the truth, ”But, don’t you know? Song Yueqin is also my rival in love!”

”Your love rival?” Qin Jian’s gaze became amused.

An Hao looked at him and said slowly, ”She likes you... but you seem quite indifferent towards her, which is why she’s discontent with me.” ”I have never really paid her any attention,” Qin Jian stated flatly.

That girl’s image in his mind was not very favorable.

She always gave off the impression of being very scheming and extraordinarily hypocritical.

”Why not?”

”I don’t know why! I felt déjà vu from the very first sight of her and didn’t like that feeling at all,” Qin Jian spoke his mind candidly.

An Hao’s lips curled into a slight smile.

”I came today to see you. How are you? Besides this, is everything else okay?” Qin Jian continued to ask.

An Hao nodded, ”I’m fine, I’ve gotten used to this kind of life.”

Qin Jian pursed his lips and said, ”If you have any troubles, tell me. I will help you deal with them.”

”Thank you, Big Brother Qin,” An Hao’s eyes reddened, and tears began to fall drop by drop.

”Why are you crying?” Qin Jian frowned slightly and raised his hand to gently wipe her tears away, but the more he wiped, the more fiercely she cried.

”I’m just... just...” An Hao, at that moment, couldn’t find the right words to express her feelings, ”It’s so good... Qin Jian... It’s so good to have you.”

After saying that, she started to sob softly.

It turns out that we are so vulnerable in front of the people we love, and yet so strong in front of those we wish to protect.

Before she met Qin Jian, she felt like she was as strong as a man, but after meeting him, she felt that maybe she wasn’t as strong as she had thought.
