Chapter 908 - Slowly Wilting and Withering
908 Slowly Wilting and Withering
Ji Yan’s voice was already pleasant to hear, but now he deliberately lowered it, making it even more seductive. Shen Hanxing felt as if tiny electric currents were surging through her body, causing her to tremble uncontrollably. Her delicate hand was held by Ji Yan’s warm palm, giving her the illusion of being controlled by the man before her. The scent of pine wood, which smelled so good, lingered in her nostrils, and she was captivated by Ji Yan’s unparalleled handsome face and his deep, dark eyes, which reflected her image.
Everything seemed just right… Shen Hanxing, as if enchanted, lightly bit her plump and rosy lips with her pearly white teeth. Her eyes shimmered like blooming flowers, waiting for the taste of the person before her.
Ji Yan’s gaze grew even deeper as he leaned down and kissed Shen Hanxing’s red lips. A faint chuckle escaped between their lips, “Is this an unhealthy thought? Or is there something even more unhealthy?”
After speaking, Ji Yan didn’t give Shen Hanxing a chance to reply. His scorching palm pressed against her lower back through the thin fabric, while his other hand supported the back of her head, deepening the kiss as if he wanted to devour her whole.
Shen Hanxing felt like she was melting, leaning weakly against Ji Yan’s chest, her fingers unconsciously grabbing his tie, receiving this dominant kiss.
Fortunately, Ji Yan and Shen Hanxing were in a relatively secluded location, with beautiful green plants providing cover. Even if someone accidentally caught a glimpse, they would smile and quickly avert their gaze. There was no one coming to disturb them.
However, there were always those who lacked tact.
“Brother Ji Yan…” A tearful voice sounded from behind, filled with pain and sorrow, as if catching a boyfriend in the act of cheating.
Shen Hanxing’s body stiffened, and she instinctively pushed Ji Yan’s chest, creating some distance between them. Ji Yan, who was still lingering, revealed a cold and displeased look as he turned around to see.
Standing not far away, with a face full of sadness and tears swirling in her eyes, Bai Youyou met Ji Yan’s gaze. She stiffened all over, inexplicably feeling a hint of fear. Gripping the bag in her hand tightly, she timidly called out, “Brother Ji Yan…”
Bai Youyou appeared so thin now, her entire body looking like skin and bones. She used to have an enviable figure, with a prominent bust and well-shaped posterior, but now she resembled a skinny bamboo pole. Even in a beautifully tailored dress, she didn’t give off a pleasant impression, more like a cloth-covered skeleton. Even though she had delicate makeup on her face, it couldn’t conceal her haggardness.
Seeing Bai Youyou in this state, Shen Hanxing furrowed her brows. “Miss Bai, have you not been eating during this period?” She had become too thin, did she even have any flesh left on her body? The Bai family was a deeply rooted prominent family with specialized nutritionists and family doctors. Wasn’t anyone questioning Bai Youyou’s current condition?
Thinking of Mr. and Mrs. Bai’s previous attitude, Shen Hanxing’s brows furrowed even more tightly. Bai Youyou now gave the impression of a beautiful flower slowly wilting and withering.
What do you mean?” Shen Hanxing’s words were well-intentioned, but in Bai Youyou’s ears, they sounded grating! She instinctively glared at her, her voice becoming sharp, “What does it have to do with you whether I eat or not? Are you mocking me?”
Shen Hanxing paused. She just asked casually, but Bai Youyou’s reaction was so intense. She felt that her problem was getting more and more serious.
“Miss Bai, I hope you take your own issues seriously and do not hesitate to seek medical help.” Shen Hanxing thought for a moment and earnestly advised, “I feel that your current condition is very unusual, and allowing it to continue may lead to problems. I genuinely hope you can talk to a psychologist…”
“Shut up!” Bai Youyou raised her voice! She wasn’t blind, and she had normal aesthetic perception. Of course, she knew how terrifying she looked now. Since she entered this place, the debutantes and socialites who were previously acquainted with her had subtly or directly inquired about her recent life, their gazes filled with pity. It was ridiculous. She was the noble Miss Bai, the first-born daughter of the Bai Family. When did she stoop to the point of being pitied by others?
When she first returned to the country, Bai Youyou was the center of attention, with numerous socialites fawning over her. She had enjoyed a period of glamorous and triumphant life. But now, she had become an object of sympathy. How could Bai Youyou accept such a disparity? She was going crazy! She had caused too many incidents. The video of her almost jumping off the building for Ji Yan had even made it to the news and became a trending topic, turning her into a joke in the entire circle.
