3036 Must Take A Shortcut
aYe Jian, who was talking to Qin Xiu, didn’t see Xia Jinyuan yet. There were green belts on both sides of the road outside. Her vision was blocked, so she didn’t immediately notice the man whose heart was surging.
“I can’t say that it’s hard. I like it, so I don’t feel tired. When I’m tired, I just sleep and rest for a while. When I think about my unfinished goal and why I came here, I’m not tired anymore.”
Qin Xiu asked Ye Jian if the compet.i.tion this time was tough and tiring. After thinking about it for a while, she replied.
If it were anyone else, she would have smiled and changed the topic.
However, Qin Xiu was different. She had seen his iron-blooded demeanor when he was negotiating with other countries. In the face of other countries’ soldiers with guns and bullets, he stood up for the interests of the country fearlessly. She had also seen his fearlessness and calmness in the face of bullets. Ye Jian admired Qin Xiu, who was a diplomat.
She only admired him, not wors.h.i.+ped. The only person she wors.h.i.+ped was the man in her heart… Lieutenant Colonel Xia.
Qin Xiu could naturally hear Ye Jian’s respect for him. It was a kind of respect. This kind of respect wasn’t what he wanted. It was too distant. He didn’t like it.
After he heard her answer, he stopped in his tracks.
Ye Jian was puzzled. She thought that he had something to do, so she stopped too. She looked up at the slender young diplomat with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
Today, he was wearing a pure navy blue suit with a white s.h.i.+rt inside. He was wearing a tie of the same color as the suit. He didn’t look old at all; he looked elegant and handsome.
There was no sun in the sky. It was gloomy and dim with the dark clouds pressing down. Qin Xiu, who was standing under a tree, narrowed his eyes. When he looked at Ye Jian, his hidden joy was faintly visible.
The surroundings were too quiet, and this was a good time. The unspeakable joy finally manifested into something bigger within him. In an instant, his heart was filled with gentleness and the sweetness of antic.i.p.ation for love.
Qin Xiu wanted to confess. After a long careful consideration and repeated self-questioning about his thoughts, he could finally tell himself with certainty, ‘Qin Xiu, you’ve fallen in love with the woman in front of you. You’re not looking to play with her or for a moment of refreshment. You really like this pure woman in front of you who works hard with her own ability.’
It wasn’t just pure love. It was deeper and stronger… love.
‘Qin Xiu, you’ve fallen in love with this woman who looks like the rising sun.’
At that moment, Qin Xiu knew that he needed to hurry up and confess. Fate had brought them together again. Both Lady Luck and Cupid were working together to make this happen for him.
He had to seize the opportunity to confess. Only then would he not let down the fate of meeting her.
Xia Jinyuan, who was striding over, was like a lion whose territory had been violated. His aura was cold, but he continued to walk on the pedestrian path. However, when he realized that something was wrong, he walked quickly and almost jogged. Then, he raised his long legs and walked straight through the knee-high bushes on the green belts. He took the shortest route and rushed over.
This man had already pried his way into his territory. How could he still walk properly?
Of course not!
He had to take a shortcut!
In order to chase away his love rival, Lieutenant Colonel Xia would definitely be in a hurry.
