Hunting for Love for 101 Times

Chapter 331 I wanted to ask you something

Long time ago, she heard the softest voice in the world that was expressing the softest love.

“What’s the matter?” Ye Sichen raised Xia Nuan’s face and asked softly when he saw she was a little heavy-minded.

Xia Nuan took his hands away, and lay back on the bed, “I’m fine. I want to lie down for a while. You can do your business.”

Ye Sichen kissed on her forehead, “Drink up the brown sugar water. I’m going to cook some tonic food for you.”

Xia Nuan did not reply. She saw outside the window, looking at the void.

Ye Sichen felt uncomfortable when he saw she was absent-minded. He stopped for a few seconds, and then left.

The three children were very worried about their mom, so, when they saw Ye Sichen, they rushed to him and asked for their mom’s situation.

Ye Sichen said their mom needed a rest and took them downstairs to the living room.

Xia Nuan had a headache, and her eyes were dry. She rubbed her forehead with her hands and closed eyes slowly. However, the teenager in a purple raincoat appeared in her mind again.

It was raining heavily. The rain wetted her clothes. The teenager took off his purple raincoat and put it on Xia Nuan to wrap her body. He held her into his arms...

“Han...”

Xia Nuan was dizzy. She felt she was in a hospital, and wanted to open her eyes but failed.

“Nuan?”

“I’ll wait for you. I promise you.” Xia Nuan clenched someone’s hands, and kept saying.

When she opened her eyes, Ye Sichen was sitting beside the bed. He was staring at her with a trace of inquiry.

Xia Nuan felt sober totally. She looked at Ye Sichen with an uneasy look.

“Ye...”

She felt a little guilty.

Ye Sichen shifted his eyes to her hands, “Do you feel better?”

“I’m feeling better now.”

“Get up and have some chicken soup.” He forced Xia Nuan to sit up.

Xia Nuan looked at the chicken soup, but had no appetite, “Ye, I don’t want to drink, or you drink it.”

“I made it for you.” Ye Sichen stressed.

Xia Nuan did not want to waste Ye Sichen’s kindness, and just drank it.

Ye Sichen did not say a word, and fed her personally. When Xia Nuan could not drink any more, he didn’t force her to drink, just got up and left.

Staring at his back, Xia Nuan lay down slowly.

At night, Ye Sichen and Meng Zuo had to do something important. Before leaving, Ye Sichen told Xia Nuan to have a good rest. Xia Nuan saw him off, got up and stood in front of the window. She drew the curtains, and saw Ye Sichen and Meng Zuo got on the car and drove away.

She was relieved, put on her coat, and went to the children’s bedroom. The children were sleeping. She tucked the children up in bed, and then left.

“Mrs. Ye, where’re you going?”

One of the subordinates of Ye Sichen came up and asked.

“I’m going to take a walk. I’ll be back soon.”

“It’s better to find a servant to accompany you.”

“No. I just want to go out to breathe some fresh air.” Xia Nuan wrapped her coat tightly, but felt a hint of coldness.

The subordinate did not say a word anymore after heard that.

Xia Nuan walked towards the calm lake. And a cold air swept in. She strode along the lake. A fascinating fragrance came from the stone arch bridge. As if driven by something, Xia Nuan walked towards the flower house over the stone arch bridge.

She was still thinking about the photo thrown by Ye Sichen today.

Arrived at the flower house, the guards here had already rested. The door was closed tightly. Xia Nuan stood among the flowers, looked at the door, and then turned to leave.

Suddenly, a black shadow fell in front of her.

A tall and strong man appeared. Under the moonlight, that man approached Xia Nuan little by little. Xia Nuan retreated with confusion.

His eyes were sharp like a knife, sweeping across her face.

In the daytime, when she was making love with Ye Sichen in the flower house, she saw the same eyes outside the window...

Xia Nuan was startled.

“Nuan?” The man said in a hoarse voice, trying to make sure she was Xia Nuan.

Xia Nuan felt her head buzzing, and retreated.

“Who are you?”

“You’ve forgotten me?” The man stopped, and his voice sounded sad, “It has been 8 years. No wonder you forget me.” He sighed, shifting his eyes from Xia Nuan’s face to the bright moon.

Xia Nuan was not that scared, approaching to observe him carefully. His face was pale but exquisite and handsome, with a touch of temperament of sadness, which made people distressed. Xia Nuan unconsciously connected this face with that teenager in purple...

But that teenager was Ye Sichen, who once saved her in a landslide...

“It seems that you’ve forgotten me completely.” The man said in a choked voice, “But I don’t blame you. I just want to know if you are happy now.”

Xia Nuan opened her mouth a little, but said nothing. Maybe it was more appropriate to say that she could not bear to say something.

“What’s your name? What are the photos that I saw?” Xia Nuan had an intuition that this man must be related to the two photos that she found unexpectedly.

“I’m Gu Jinhan.”

“Gu Jinhan...” Xia Nuan murmured, hearing a buzz in her head. She was confused.

“Yes, I’m Gu Jinhan, the one you once knew. But I am happy to see you’ve forgotten me. I can’t give you anything. I’m content to see you’re alive.” He said, holding a cane, and slowly turned to leave.

“Gu Jinhan!” Xia Nuan speeded up, and blocked him, “I’m sorry. I’m not intended to forget you. Now I want to find the past, can I?”

Gu Jinhan looked at Xia Nuan, and could not restrain his emotions. He reached out his arms and hugged Xia Nuan. It was a little cold at first, but when he tightened, Xia Nuan felt a sense of warmth, which was familiar to her.

This man was strange to her, but a long-lost and familiar feeling arose in the depth of her heart, making her unable to resist his hug.

“Nuan, I miss you so much... But I know that we can’t start again. I just hope you can live happily...” Gu Jinhan held Xia Nuan’s face. His black eyes were full of strong affections.

His eyes were different from Ye Sichen’s, which had a surge of natural alienation and indifference. Even though Ye Sichen was gentle, the feeling of loneliness within him had not changed. Ye Sichen’s eyes were as deep as the sea, as cold as a winter, but Gu Jinhan’s eyes were filled with warmth, and he could only see Xia Nuan.

They looked at each other, as if there was a magnet between them.

“Mrs. Ye is inside. I saw her in.” A voice suddenly came in.

Xia Nuan recovered in a hurry and looked towards the direction from which the voice came.

There were two people standing outside the flower house. Without any consideration, she urged Gu Jinhan to leave.

“You must find a place to hide, or you’ll be found.” She knew that Ye Sichen disliked her to have too much contact with other man. If he saw she was with other man here, he would misunderstand her.

But Gu Jinhan did not move, “No, I won’t go. I want to ask him whether he loves you or not, whether he treats you well or not...”

“Please! I beg for you to leave.” Xia Nuan pushed him.

Gu Jinhan did not want to leave Xia Nuan in embarrassment, so he left suddenly, as quickly as he disappeared from the air. Xia Nuan could not find him.

“Nuan?” Ye Sichen came in.

Xia Nuan hid her fluster, greeting Ye Sichen, “Ye, how did you come back so early?”

Ye Sichen looked at her coldly. Her body exuded a faint breath of another man. Suddenly, Ye Sichen held her hand, “Are you looking for something here?”

“No, I just felt stuffy in the bedroom, so, I walked out.”

“What a terrible explanation.” Ye Sichen smiled, pulled her into his arms, sniffing the odor left on her body. That kind of masculine breath was so strong. Ye Sichen’s eyes turned cold.

“Are you missing those photos?”

“No. Ye, let’s go home. It’s a little cold here.” Xia Nuan shook her head, holding Ye Sichen’s hand, and walked towards the door.

Ye Sichen took a photo out, “What you want is this. You don’t have to hide your true minds.”

Under the moonlight, that photo was showed to Xia Nuan.

Xia Nuan looked at the man who was overexposed in the photo, her tears falling down uncontrollably.

“You lied to me that you’re in menstruation because you didn’t want to leave.” Ye Sichen’s sharp eyes swept across Xia Nuan’s face, “Who’s that man? He turned up here just now, right?”

“I’m sorry, Ye. I really don’t remember what happened in the past. I need to recall it. I need to find out something.” Xia Nuan did not answer directly.

Ye Sichen grabbed her arms, seemingly casual, but aggressive, “Xia Nuan, there should be no deception between us. Why are you always hiding your feelings?”

“I’m sorry. I don’t mean to deceive you. I just... I don’t want you to overthink.” Xia Nuan explained, looking at Ye Sichen. She held his hands, and felt distressed.

“If you don’t want me to overthink, why can’t you learn to be honest?” Ye Sichen was a little angry.

Xia Nuan said nothing and looked away.

“We’ll return to the island tomorrow.” Ye Sichen released her hand, and left.

Xia Nuan followed him with lost mind.

After a silent night, on the next day, Xia Nuan and Ye Sichen took children to leave.

“Ye, I want to ask you something.” Xia Nuan looked at Ye Sichen, who was dressing children in the living room.

“What’s the matter? Just go ahead.” Ye Sichen did not even look up.
