Chapter 534: Can’t Love
Yan Nuo said to Ji Yinbing, “Follow me.” He turned around and climbed up the slope.
Ji Yinbing followed closely behind.
On the way, she saw a blue flower. She lowered her head and sniffed it gently. Yan Nuo did not hear any footsteps, so he turned around.
Seeing the little slave smelling the fragrance, Yan Nuo suddenly said, “Since you like it, why don’t you pick it?”
Ji Yinbing looked surprised. “Why do I have to pick it?”
She said, “It’s precisely because I like it that I can’t pick it. If I pick it, it will wither. If it continues to grow, it can still grow seeds. Its life will continue.” Liking a flower and liking someone had the same logic.
If you pick it because you like it, that’s possession.
Yan Nuo understood what she meant. If he liked a flower or someone, he should protect it well.
Yan Nuo’s eyes flickered. He turned around and continued walking.
Ji Yinbing flicked the flower with her finger before running after Yan Nuo.
Yan Nuo sat down under the oak tree, and Ji Yinbing stood behind him.
“Sit.”
Hearing Yan Nuo’s words, Ji Yinbing sat down.
Yan Nuo looked at the tall buildings of Mumbai in the distance. There were trees above his head and little slave behind him. This feeling was actually not bad. He used his hands to hold his head and leaned on the grass, looking at the sunlight and the clouds through the gaps in the leaves. Ji Yinbing sat cross-legged behind him.
He looked at the clouds while she looked at him.
The person looking at the cloudy sky suddenly said, “There are snacks in the bag.”
Ji Yinbing looked at the bag at the side.
She reached out and dragged the bag over. Ji Yinbing opened the bag and saw that there was a separate paper bag inside. She touched it and it was still hot. Ji Yinbing did not know what it was. She stared at it in a daze until Yan Nuo said, “It’s all for you. You have to eat it.”
She picked up the food which was the size of two fists.
Ji Yinbing opened the bag and saw a hamburger.
She was stunned.
The economy in India was bad. Fast-food restaurants like KFC, which were seen everywhere in China or other countries, were only affordable for rich people in India. Ji Yinbing had never eaten this before. She was not even qualified to enter KFC stores.
When she passed by such a shop when she was young, she could not help but look inside. She could see people sitting by the window eating. They were all dressed beautifully.
She looked at the hamburger and suddenly said, “My mother said that KFC is fast food in her country. She said that parents usually don’t allow their children to eat such things because fried food is unhealthy.” She looked down at Yan Nuo and asked him, “Master, have you been to China?”
Yan Nuo opened his eyes and looked at Ji Yinbing. He realized that Ji Yinbing’s gaze was a little downcast.
He acknowledged softly.
Ji Yinbing asked him again, “What… is China like?”
“Not bad.”
“Are the people there very rich?”
“There are also poor people, but not as many as our country,” he said again. “There are also signs of favoring men over women there, but most families love their children equally. That country is more stable and prosperous than our country. At least, when girls go to the toilet, they don’t have to be on guard against anyone taking advantage of them at any time.”
In the countryside and slums of India, it was dangerous for girls to go to the toilet.
Ji Yinbing thought of Minna and said, “Minna must be a Chinese in her next life.”
Yan Nuo asked her, “Who’s Minna?”
Ji Yinbing said vaguely, “A poor girl.” She lowered her head and took a bite of the hamburger, realizing that the taste was not what she liked. She said, “This isn’t very delicious.” But she still took big bites.
As she chewed, she shed tears.
She thought of her mother and thousands of Minnas and could not help but feel sad.
“I have to get into Harvard.” Study in the best university, find the best job, and marry the best man in the future. Have a cute daughter and give her the best life in the world.
Yan Nuo smiled.
“Then finish your hamburger before you get into Harvard.”
Ji Yinbing ate the hamburger, fries, and chicken leg in a few bites.
After he finished eating, Yan Nuo said, “Happy birthday.”
Ji Yinbing was stunned for a moment before a smile appeared on her greasy lips. She said to Yan Nuo, “Master, in this world, only you remember my birthday.” She was very happy, but her smile was a little ugly. Yan Nuo suddenly reached out and wiped the oil from her mouth.
Ji Yinbing was stunned, and so was Yan Nuo.
A moment later, he retracted his finger and said coldly, “It’s time to go back.”
“Yeah.”
When they returned, Yan Nuo drove very quickly. No matter how Ji Yinbing chased, she could not catch up.
When they got home, Yan Nuo rushed into the room.
He locked the door.
As he lay on the bed, the image of him reaching out to wipe the grease off Ji Yinbing’s mouth more than an hour ago appeared in his mind. He placed the hand in front of his eyes and stared at it for a long time. Finally, he wiped his hand angrily.
The next afternoon, Yan Nuo and Yan Yu practiced shooting on the training ground.
Yan Nuo shot five times but did not hit the tenth ring.
Just as he was about to fire the sixth shot, Yan Yu suddenly grabbed his arm.
“Huh?” Yan Nuo looked at her in confusion.
Yan Yu frowned. “You’re not in the right state.”
Yan Nuo put down his gun in frustration. He looked at the target and suddenly asked, “Sister, have you ever liked someone?”
Yan Yu snorted. “What is love?” She snorted. “Don’t say the words ‘like’ and ‘love’ to a single person. How vulgar!”
Bang!
The bullet left the pistol in Yan Yu’s hand and hit the red center.
Yan Nuo shook his head and left.
Yan Yu suddenly stopped him. “Yan Nuo, don’t tell me you have someone you like?”
Yan Nuo stopped in his tracks but said, “…No.”
He would not like that little slave, and he could not like that little slave.
What kind of people do you know, what kind of environment are you in, and what kind of education did you receive… These would all add up to some social rules. Yan Nuo did not agree with the caste system, but this country did.
If he was with a lowly commoner, what would his subordinates think? What would his friends think?
In this country, if a person of a superior caste married an untouchable person, he would be condemned. His family would be implicated. He still had a sister who was not married. Once he was with the little slave, this matter would also affect his sister’s marriage in the future.
Yan Nuo felt that perhaps he did not like Ji Yinbing, but he admired her.
Yes!
That must be it!
He was certain that he didn’t love Ji Yinbing. For a long time after that, Yan Nuo didn’t look for Ji Yinbing again..
