Chapter 999: Riding the Wind and Asking the Moon-I’ll Be By Your Side (84)
Yin Ruisheng’s hand reached over and held her hand. He pulled her to him without giving her any chance to resist. He looked carefully at the spot on her hand that had been treated and bandaged. He tightened his grip on her hand.
Zuo Yue wanted to pull her hand out but failed. She stared blankly at Yin Ruisheng’s expression as he stared at her hand. She did not know what he was thinking.
Seeing this, Julie and Vina quickly covered their eyes with a snickering expression. At the same time, the two of them suddenly stood up and ran to the window, saying,”Why don’t we go upstairs and take a look? Zuo Yue, is it convenient for us to go upstairs?”
Zuo Yue did not react for a moment. In the blink of an eye, she saw that the two of them had already gone up the stairs. She could not help but say,”It’s convenient, but why are you guys going up? There was only a bedroom and two guest rooms upstairs. There was also a walk-in closet for the spare study room. There was nothing worth looking at.”
“It’s good that it’s convenient. If we don’t go upstairs, do we have to go out? It’s not comfortable being a third wheel here, isn’t it, Julie?”
Julie also laughed,”Yes!”
Julie and Vera rushed upstairs.
Zuo Yue was stunned and was about to get up.
However, before she could stand up, she was suddenly pulled down by Yin Ruisheng beside her.
Zuo Yue staggered back to the sofa and turned to look at Yin Ruisheng in shock.””You…”
“There’s no one else here now.” Yin Ruisheng grabbed her hand forcefully and did not let her run away. At the same time, his dark eyes stared at Zuo Yue’s slightly embarrassed eyes.”Tell me, have you been deliberately avoiding me during this period of time?”
Zuo Yue paused for a moment and sat back down beside him.””No, everyone knows that I’m sick. My phone isn’t with me, so…”
“It’s not that you didn’t pick up my call.”Yin Ruisheng looked at her.” Zuo Yue, I’m not forcing you to do anything. It’s just a casual joke I made when we were young. Although I took it seriously, I won’t let you bear any consequences for what you said when we were young. Just tell me, are you avoiding me, or are you just…”
“I really didn’t avoid it, Brother Ruisheng.”Zuo Yue looked up at him, but when she met his gaze, she remembered what he said in the PUB that day.
He said it, and he took it seriously.
She had to admit that she had been moved for a moment, and her heart trembled.
However, after that, she felt that it was too fast and too sudden, so she didn’t give him a response. If the man was her, she would really be serious.
” When I said I wanted to find a boyfriend last time, I was just joking. But Julie and Vina were so enthusiastic that we ended up having a social gathering. I was just having fun at that time. I didn’t want to find a boyfriend so easily…”
Zuo Yue said while looking at his hand on her wrist. After hesitating for a moment, she said,”” Also, Brother Ruisheng, I remember you. I also remember what happened when we were young. But in my heart, you’re a good brother, a person who treats me very well, a very warm person. When I’m not ready, when I don’t have a suitable relationship to be with you, I don’t want to be so reckless to date you. After all, I don’t want to play with someone’s feelings, and I don’t want that person to be you.”
“Was the person who took you away in the PUB really your uncle?”Yin Ruisheng suddenly changed the topic.
Zuo Yue’s eyes paused, as if she understood what he meant.
She looked around.
Although the villa didn’t have any special design, Yin Ruisheng could easily sense that there was another owner in the villa, and it was a male owner.
“Yes, it’s my uncle. This is his house. You know that our Zuo family is in Los Angeles, and we don’t have any plans to live in Boston, so they didn’t buy me a house here.”
Hearing this answer, Yin Ruisheng seemed to be relieved and gradually let go of her hand.
Seeing his expression, it was not difficult for Zuo Yue to guess that he probably thought she was living with some man.
“It’s really my uncle’s place. Don’t think too much about it.”Zuo Yue smiled and said.
Yin Ruisheng’s expression softened a lot, but he suddenly sighed and laughed.”That uncle of yours looks like… He’s very young and doesn’t seem to be much older than us.”
“Yes… When my grandfather was very old, he was outside…” Zuo Yue looked at him meaningfully.””You know, the kind that gives birth to a child when he’s old. That’s why my uncle is much younger than my mother. He’s only nine years older than me.”
Yin Ruisheng nodded.
“I feel like your uncle is not very patient with you…” Yin Ruisheng continued,” If you’re not comfortable living here, my parents bought me two apartments here because I came to America to study. If you’re willing, I can tidy up the other apartment and let you live there.””
“There’s no need. My uncle rarely comes back. He only comes back a few times a month.”Zuo Yue smiled and said,”Thank you, Brother Rui Sheng. Actually, I live here most of the time.” ”
Yin Ruisheng looked at her, not forgetting the men’s indoor slippers he saw when he entered the door.
It was obvious that her little uncle had just left not long ago.
“I just feel that Zuo Yue, you are no longer a child. Regardless of whether that person is your uncle or a closer blood relationship, it is more appropriate for a girl of your age to live alone.”
“My mom isn’t even worried about these things. Don’t worry about them.”Zuo Yue smiled and said frankly,” Julie and Weina have always misunderstood that there’s something going on between us. They’ve all run upstairs now. I’ll go get them.””
Zuo Yue was about to stand up when Yin Ruisheng suddenly reached out and grabbed her wrist again.
Zuo Yue stopped in her tracks and turned around to look at him.
“Zuo Yue, let me take care of her, isn’t that good?”Yin Ruisheng stood up and stood in front of her. He was a few meters tall and was much taller than her.
When he walked up to her, Zuo Yue felt an inexplicable sense of pressure. She instinctively took a step back, but her waist suddenly tightened. The moment Yin Ruisheng’s hand wrapped around her waist and pressed her into his embrace, her entire body instantly tensed up.
“Brother Ruisheng… I…”
“I won’t force you to do anything, but Zuo Yue, if you don’t have someone suitable to take care of you, of course, your uncle is an exception. He is your family, but he is not your boyfriend.”Yin Ruisheng said,”I’m very worried about your illness this time. I really want to stay by your side.””
