Chapter 651: His Indescribable Protective Affection (4)_1
Young Master Yan couldn’t suppress the jealousy within, an emotion that had just sprouted before being forcibly cut off, deeply buried in his heart—it was as if it were furiously trying to break free, to sprout from beneath the soil. He gazed at the woman before him, her face showing confusion, and he lowered his eyes, concealing all of his emotions: she knew nothing...
Mo Yan looked at Yan Junyu’s unpleasant expression, completely at a loss as to where his imagination had taken him, and suddenly felt that men, when lost in wild thoughts, could be even more terrifying than women! She thought she should say something, but intuition told her that at the moment, the more she spoke, the worse it would become, so she decided it was best just to stay by his side.
Yan Junyu’s lapse of composure didn’t last long, and soon, a careless smile hung on his face again, "I’ve heard your perfunctory explanations countless times. I’m quite angry now, so as a punishment, you have to keep me company in conversation until I feel better!"
Mo Yan was both annoyed and amused by his rascal-like demeanor and asked in a huff, "What do you want to talk about?"
This question actually stumped Yan Junyu. He simply wanted to keep her there, as if that alone could fill the emptiness in his heart, making whether they actually talked or not seem secondary.
Mo Yan, looking at the confusion on his face, suddenly felt a bit of pity for him. It was like someone who had many confidants yet still felt lonely inside. They wouldn’t confide their troubles to friends and family but were extremely afraid of being alone, hoping for someone’s company, even if it were silent, just to cheer them up.
This man was not as incompetent and profligate as the outside world made him out to be. He intentionally presented this image to others, and surely he had his reasons! Suppressing his true nature for so long, over time, he probably couldn’t even distinguish whether that was a facade or his real face.
