C639 He Was No Longer Under His Own Control
On the contrary, she had a dream in which she went back to the past and the scene of her dashing across the prairie with Sheng Yeting and Xiaobao was exceptionally clear.
The room was silent. The light from the lamp was faint with a yellow glow. The woman on the bed had long since fallen asleep, her beautiful sleeping face exceptionally serene. Her long eyelashes reflected her beautiful shadow, making people feel that she was so beautiful.
When Yun Chen entered, he saw this scene. The closer he got to Xia Xingcheng, the slower his breathing became. He was afraid that he would disturb Xia Xingcheng, who was currently fast asleep.
He had never felt this way before. He was very careful for a woman. He cared about her emotions and felt her sadness and happiness. As long as she was happy, he would be very happy. He must be sick, Yun Chen thought.
Everything was beginning to get out of control.
Xia Xingcheng was exceptionally serene when she slept, but there seemed to always be a hint of worry on her face as she frowned slightly. Yun Chen's heart was a little touched. He felt sorry for Xia Xingcheng, so he couldn't help but reach out his hand to comfort her.
When Yun Chen's hand was only a centimeter away from Xia Xingcheng's face, he hesitated for a moment before he retracted it.
At this moment, he was so proud that he actually feared Xia Xingcheng waking up because of him. He was afraid that Xia Xingcheng would reject him like she did today, so he didn't dare to touch her again. He just looked at her quietly, not bothering her.
Thinking of this, Yun Chen sighed almost inaudibly. He gazed at Xia Xingcheng's serene and beautiful sleeping face and lovingly described it again and again in his heart.
After a long while, Yun Chen reached out his hand and tucked Xia Xingcheng's blanket, allowing her to sleep more comfortably. He reluctantly took one last look and finally chose to leave. Silence returned to the room.
After Yun Chen left, the room returned to its usual silence. It was so quiet that even a pin drop could be heard.
Xia Xingcheng opened her eyes gently, trying her best to adapt to the darkness in the room. She had felt it when Yun Chen came, so her body was especially tense.
She felt Yun Chen's probing gaze and his almost inaudible sigh. It was only when Yun Chen left that Xia Xingcheng's tense body gradually relaxed.
Xia Xingcheng sighed. She really couldn't let herself and Yun Chen get along without each other. People like Yun Chen were too dangerous, and that was not something she could understand.
She didn't know what had happened to her. She kept telling herself to start over and stop thinking about Sheng Yeting.
Xia Xingcheng shook her head, trying to get rid of these chaotic and complicated emotions. It was already late in the night, she wanted to stop thinking about these things and quickly fall asleep.
Yun Chen, who was standing at the side, came out of Xia Xingcheng's bedroom. There was no emotion in his calm eyes, but his tightly clenched fists exposed everything.
Yun Chen let go of his fists that had started to turn white due to clenching. His fingers moved nimbly as he tried to get rid of the stiffness.
That's right, he was holding himself back. He could feel that Xia Xingcheng hadn't fallen asleep just now. He was prepared for Xia Xingcheng's estrangement from him. He could feel it, but even so, he still had to find a way to get close to Xia Xingcheng.
Xia Xingcheng was an accident in all of his plans. He had once avoided and ignored Xia Xingcheng's interest in her, but when he thought of her stubborn face and her tenacious character, he couldn't help but be deeply attracted to her.
There was indeed someone like Xia Xingcheng in this world, he thought. Her tenacity, her intelligence, as well as her kindness and beauty, all made her enchanted. If there really came a day when she had to wait for Xia Xingcheng, he could wait and be willing to wait for as long as he wanted.
As expected, early the next morning, the news of Sheng Yeting's and Liang Fengyue's wedding being held one day later spread rapidly.
And the source of this news, was precisely the official authority of Shengshi Group, so it was true that this was not a rumor.
Although the two protagonists did not personally admit this matter, everything seemed to have been acknowledged by the outside world.
News like that immediately became a topic of discussion after lunch, on the news, Weibo, TV, and everywhere else that could be spread.
Xia Xingcheng did not see this at first.
However, he didn't know if it was intentional or not, but at breakfast time, Yun Chen turned on the huge TV screen for the servants to watch.
"In the early morning of the next few days, the CEO of Shengshi Group, Sheng Yeting, will be officially getting married a week after the official announcement."
The news about Sheng Yeting and Liang Fengyue's marriage had reached Xia Xingcheng's ears.
Xia Xingcheng's hand, which was holding the milk cup, quivered involuntarily.
Then, he pretended to be eating his meal casually, and his lowered eyelashes quietly covered up his emotions.
Yun Chen took a good look at her expression. Finally, he quietly retracted his gaze and a look of understanding flashed across his eyes.
It seemed that this woman had not completely given up just like she had said.
However, neither of them spoke another word during the entire breakfast time.
That piece of news also seemed to have gone out of control as it continued to roll up and down on the television. The reporter's cold and mechanical voice rang in Xia Xingcheng's ears again and again, like a spell, making it impossible for her to act like nothing had happened.
After finishing her meal, Xia Xingcheng put down the cup as if a heavy burden had been lifted off her shoulders. She then stood up slowly and said, "I'm done eating. I'll go upstairs now."
Then, without waiting for Yun Chen's reaction, she turned around and disappeared to the staircase like a wisp of smoke.
Xia Xingcheng locked the door after returning to her room.
Xia Xingcheng fell to the ground powerlessly, as if all her strength had been sucked out of her. Her tears flowed silently.
It was painful. There was a spot in her heart where she felt as if she had been stabbed by a knife. The pain was unbearable, and it was so painful that she was no longer able to breathe.
When she first heard the news, Xia Xingcheng thought for a moment that it was just her imagination.
But when everything returned to reality, she realized how ridiculous she was.
It turned out that Sheng Yeting was really going to marry that woman.
