: Fiery Heart

“Oh, why am I thinking, I also like you as a friend, there is nothing to apologize for, in fact, I have made very few true friends since I was a child, but you are definitely the best one, getting along for so many days, I can feel it.”

Regarding the word friend, Bai Yu actually really likes friends like Lin Ying. This girl is really the most honest and kind-hearted friend he has ever made, and also the friend who cares most about himself.

At least among female friends, Lin Ying is the first friend who has been so close since Bai Yu’s two lifetimes.

Bai Yu’s words are from the perspective of a friend, but once you like someone, you will no longer have so much innocence. Lin Ying obviously doesn’t think so.

Looking at Bai Yu with chopsticks in hand and a calm face, Lin Ying lowered her head and wrote a sentence in the small notebook on her lap, then raised her hand and handed it to him.

“Would you really like a friend like me?”

Looking at Lin Ying who was holding up a notebook and completely covering her cheeks, Bai Yu didn’t know why Lin Ying asked herself this way, but the answer he gave was definitely unquestionable.

“If I don’t like a friend like you, do you think I’ll stay at your house for a day to take care of you when you’re sick?”

Hearing Bai Yu’s angry words, Lin Ying couldn’t help showing a faint smile on her pretty face hidden behind the book, but this rare smile was quickly hidden by her again.

Taking down the notebook, Lin Ying once again wrote a sentence on it and held it up.

“Really?”

“Really, I don’t have any reason to lie to you, do I?”

Bai Yu knew that Lin Ying was full of distrust towards this world, so he had always been patient with Lin Ying and had been building trust with her.

But after he finished speaking, Lin Ying gently closed the book, put the lid on the pen and put it on her thigh, reached out to pick up the chopsticks and began to eat in small bites.

Looking at Lin Ying who suddenly stopped writing and began to eat instead, Bai Yu felt that he couldn’t understand this mixed-race foreign girl.

But other people, Lin Ying, didn’t say anything, and Bai Yu naturally wouldn’t ask. People are like iron and steel, so let’s eat first.

In the quiet living room, there was only the occasional light noise from the two of them eating, which seemed very quiet.

Although Bai Yu is not used to this kind of quiet feeling, it can be said that it brought him a very uncomfortable feeling, but this feeling is what Lin Ying has experienced repeatedly every day in the past, day after day I don’t know how long it took to copy and paste.

look upLooking at eating with a small bowl, the quiet and elegant Lin Ying gave people the feeling that eating is so pleasing to the eye.

But Bai Yu didn’t shy away from watching others. Just staring straight at her made Lin Ying’s already somewhat cramped eating movements even more awkward.

Gently putting down the bowls and chopsticks, Lin Ying gestured slowly with sign language.

“Do I look weird?”

After translating Lin Ying’s sign language, Bai Yu immediately realized that it seemed impolite to keep staring at someone else’s girl, so she quickly apologized.

“No, it’s just that I found that today you look more beautiful than before, and I lost my mind by accident. I’m sorry.”

“Hmm~”

A slight startled sound came from Lin Ying’s small mouth, and her trembling delicate body showed that she was startled by Bai Yu’s words.

“Huh? What’s wrong?”

Bai Yu bowed his head and started eating after finishing his praise of Lin Ying, so he didn’t notice Lin Ying’s body trembling, but heard a very slight sound of surprise, which made him a little puzzled.

After waving her hand, how could Lin Ying say that she had something to do, now she felt that her heart was about to jump out of her chest.

He stretched out his hand and subconsciously put it on his chest. Even if he didn’t feel it deliberately, he could still feel the impact of the beating heart on his hand.

In the quiet room, Lin Ying was a little afraid that her heartbeat would be heard by Bai Yu, so she quickly stood up, took the bowls and chopsticks, and hurried to the kitchen barefoot.

Seeing Lin Ying who didn’t say anything, stood up and went to the kitchen to put the bowls and chopsticks, Bai Yu asked even more suspiciously.

“Lin Ying, there’s quite a lot of food, don’t you want to eat?”

Lin Ying, who had her back to Bai Yu, nodded her head when she heard these words, and then waved her hand to signal that she would not eat.

Bai Yu was actually a little surprised to see Lin Ying who only ate a small bowl of rice and stopped eating. After all, this was too little, right?

However, thinking of the fact that she had a high fever before subsiding, Bai Yu felt that it might be Lin Ying’s lack of appetite, so she didn’t ask too much.

After putting down the bowl and chopsticks, Lin Ying walked to her room, closed the door gently, and then squatted behind the door, covering her heart, which was unwilling to stop beating violently, panting.

Lin Ying had never felt that fiery, tense, fearful and mixed feeling of joy, and she didn’t know how to deal with this situation.

But even if she has never been in a relationship or had extra contact with boys, Lin Ying has lived for twenty years after all, so she doesn’t know what this feeling is.

Liking, liking for a person, a liking that has completely surpassed that of friends.

Although she had felt this way before, it was especially strong today.

Gently hugging her legs, Lin Ying wanted to use the quietness and the familiar loneliness in the room to suppress the blazing heat in her heart, but she found that a seed had been planted in her heart since she came into contact with Bai Yu. It’s like a small flame, and now that it’s completely discovered, it’s already burning and can’t be extinguished by the feeling of loneliness.

“Lin Ying, are you sure you don’t want to eat? If you don’t eat, I’ll clean up the dishes?”

The voice from the living room made Lin Ying, who was squatting behind the door of the room, stand up. After taking a deep breath, she calmed herself down as soon as possible.

Gently knocking on the door, Lin Ying walked out and saw that Bai Yu had already started to pack the dishes. Her movements looked so proficient that she had the illusion that each other had lived like this for a long time.

But she quickly realized that as the master of the house, how could she let Bai Yu, a guest, do everything for her?

At the end of the day, Bai Yu took care of her and cooked for her, so she couldn’t keep Bai Yu busy.

Stepping forward in a hurry, Lin Ying reached out to pick up the bowls and chopsticks in Bai Yu’s hand, signaling that all these should be handed over to her.

But how could Bai Yu really leave it all to Lin Ying?

“You’ve just recovered from your illness. Rest early today. I’ll be able to clean up soon, and I’ll go back later. It’s okay.”
