Endless Fall-Chapter 145 - 145 So Are You Mine Now?
145 So Are You Mine Now?
Perhaps because the atmosphere was just right or his embrace gave her courage.
She met his gaze and asked, “Do you have feelings for me?”
“Yes.” Jiang Ye did not hesitate.
He held her hand and placed it over his heart. “This place isn’t made of stone.”
Pei Yilan felt his heartbeat and her mind seemed to have exploded with joy.
!!
She looked into those eyes that had her in them and stammered in excitement, “From when?”
“From the time you kissed me in the filming site.” Even after so long, he still remembered how quick his heart was beating.
Jiang Ye held her hand tightly.
Speaking of which, he only realized how he felt about her the day they went to the hot spring together.
He pressed his forehead against hers. “At that time, many men looked at you. I was especially unhappy.”
“Is that why you were so harsh to me?”
“In what way was I harsh to you?”
Pei Yilan muttered, “When you asked me to wrap myself up in a towel, I thought you hated me.”
“How is that possible?” Since he had already told her about his feelings, Jiang Ye did not think there was a need to hide anything at this point.
He said slowly, “I was just too anxious.”
“Then why didn’t you tell me?”
“I wasn’t ready.”
Pei Yilan looked at him in confusion.
She was still immersed in happiness. She asked him directly, “Is there anything holding you back from telling me?”
“A lot.”
“Such as?”
“Our family backgrounds and financial situations are very different. I’m not sure I can make your life better.”
Jiang Ye explained the reality that they had to face.
He said seriously, “Even if I climb to the top in my field, I won’t be able to reach the level of the Pei family. Do you understand?”
How could Pei Yilan not understand?
She said firmly, “Jiang Ye, I don’t want to live a particularly luxurious life. We can work hard together on material things.”
He tightened his grip on her waist. “What about your family? Do they have any requirements for your boyfriend?”
“No.” Pei Yilan hugged him back. “My father was especially poor when he was young. Before he got married, he was financially supported by my mother.”
“I heard from others that the Pei family has been very rich for three generations. Why would this happen?”
“That’s because Grandpa wants them to earn money with their own hands, not rely on him.”
“No wonder.” Jiang Ye had a basic understanding of the Pei family from what she said.
He pushed aside the strands of long hair that were tickling his collarbone and tucked them behind her shoulder. “Did you tell them about me?”
“I mentioned you.”
“What did they say?”
“They said I’m useless.” Pei Yilan told him what Pei Zhen said before. “He won my grandmother’s heart in just two months.”
Jiang Ye chuckled. 𝑓𝐫𝑒e𝒘𝚎𝘣𝚗𝘰𝘷𝐞𝑙.co𝑚
He lowered his head to kiss her forehead, the uneasiness in his heart completely gone. “You’re not bad either.”
The warm touch was like a feather brushing past Pei Yilan. She felt an itch all over her body.
“So, are you mine now?”
“What? Do you wanna start your pursuit all over again?”
“I don’t want to!”
Jiang Ye stopped teasing her.
He moved down a bit to look her right in the eyes and asked softly, “Yilan, can you be my girlfriend?”
His sincere gaze made Pei Yilan want to cry.
She nodded and hugged his neck, her red eyes sparkling. “Okay.”
“Why are you crying?”
“I am happy.”
Jiang Ye did not expect her to be such a crier. He coaxed her for a long time before she stopped crying.
He held a tissue to the tip of her nose and asked her to blow her nose, “Do you want some water?”
“No.” Pei Yilan picked up her phone. “I’ll tell them the good news.”
“They’re all asleep at this hour.”
“They’ll be notified the first thing upon waking up.”
Jiang Ye did not stop her.
He pressed against the top of her head and could see her joy with every word she typed.
“Yilan.” He suddenly thought of something. “Did you add Yang Qifeng on WeChat?”
“I did.”
“Then block him first.”
Pei Yilan did as she was told.
When she was typing on her Moments, she asked, “You don’t want him to know that we’re in a relationship?”
“Yes.” Jiang Ye’s eyes darkened. “It was him who arranged for me to meet Jiang Yingnuo.”
“Why did he do that?”
“He’s afraid of losing his job.”
“That’s disgusting!” Pei Yilan turned off the screen. “I always thought he was very good to you. I didn’t expect him to be such a nasty person.”
“How can you tell he’s good.?”
“The last time you were hospitalized, he was especially anxious. It was as if the sky had collapsed.”
Jiang Ye sneered. “He’s suitable to be an actor.” Then, he asked, “How did you take me out of the hotel?”
Pei Yilan told him what happened.
When he heard her slap Jiang Yingna, Jiang Ye frowned. “Are you injured?”
“No.”
“No?”
He pulled out her right hand.
When he saw the scratches on the back of her hand, he felt extremely sad. “Does it hurt?”
“No, I can’t feel a thing.”
Pei Yilan was still all smiles.
In order to prevent him from feeling guilty, she changed the topic naturally. “When you get discharged…”
Before she could finish, he kissed her gently.
Jiang Ye closed his eyes, as if he wanted to put all his feelings into this long kiss.
As the kissing became more passionate, Pei Yilan felt a chill run down her spine.
She seemed to have stepped into the clouds and kept falling.
She fell until she couldn’t take it anymore.
Jiang Ye pulled away in time.
He patted her back to help her breathe. “Don’t you know you need to breathe to live?”
“I forgot.” Pei Yilan lowered her head.
She leaned into his arms, wanting to stick to him as much as she could. “Let’s do it again when we wake up.”
“You’ll forget it if we start over.”
“I swear I will not.”
Jiang Ye did not believe her at all.
The first thing he did when he woke up was to confirm if Pei Yilan had forgotten about it.
In the end…
“It doesn’t count this time!” Pei Yilan repeated the kissing with him again and again with a red face.
Jiang Ye knew she did it on purpose. To punish her, he gently bit her lower lip.
“Are you still pretending?” He rubbed the top of her head, but there was no sign of anger on his face.
Pei Yilan did not panic at all after being exposed.
“You bite me.” She touched her lower lip. “It hurts.”
“How much does it hurt?”
“Very much.”
Jiang Ye pursed his lips.
Before he could speak, he heard a knock on the door. “Please come in.”
Shen Yi happened to see him tidying Pei Yilan’s collar.
He raised an eyebrow. “What are you doing?”
