Chapter 301: Take her to a place where there is only her and him
Li Jingyan took a deep look at her.
"Okay." He didn't stop it.
After the words fell, he took her hand and walked to the waiting area.
The boatman smiled and asked, "Do you want to take a boat?" β
"Yes." Li Jingyan nodded.
He first let go of Mu Shihuan's hand and got on the boat, then stood at the bow of the boat and turned to stretch out his hand to her.
Mu Shihuan looked at him.
The boat family is a middle-aged man who loves to laugh, and when he saw this, he quipped: "Little girl, your boyfriend is very good to you, don't be afraid, the boat won't shake, and your boyfriend's hand will be stable." β
Mu Shihuan did not explain that he was not a boyfriend.
Not wanting to waste the boatman's time, or to make the man feel hypocritical or because there was something else to worry about, she put her hand in his palm without expression.
With a pull, she was carried into the man's arms, and her hands were forced against his chest.
But in the next second, the man let her go.
"Sit here." Li Jingyan led her to sit down.
Mu Shihuan does not insist on the word.
"Okay? Let's start when it's good. The boatman asked with a smile.
Li Jingyan nodded.
After a while, the boatman slowly rocked the boat and began to move smoothly on the river.
Mu Shihuan's hand was grabbed all the time.
She didn't try to break free, not caring about it, and because all her attention was on her senses from the moment she got on the boat.
Rather, she was concentrating on her fears.
She knew very well that she was afraid of water.
Because of what happened a year ago, and because of that dream, that strong real feeling of suffocation, but she wanted to overcome it more, so she wanted to give it a try.
She believed she could.
Therefore, Mu Shihuan completely ignored everything around him, including the gaze of the man next to him.
I don't know if I'm too nervous, or the more I try to overcome it, the more that feeling will go against her, and she is ready, but that feeling doesn't come when she's on the shore.
Gone.
It's like...... I've never felt strange about the fear of water.
It's so strange, so strange that Mu Shihuan is inexplicably a little anxious.
She frowned.
I wanted to continue to feel, but at this time, the man suddenly hugged her.
"Be careful!" A deep sound pressed into his ear.
Mu Shihuan was hidden in his arms by a man.
She came back to her senses, struggling with her conditioned reflexes.
Almost at the same time, he let her go.
There were droplets of water splashed, and what was separated by unfamiliar laughter and laughter.
Mu Shihuan subconsciously looked over, and saw that it was several other people on the boat splashing water on each other, all of them smiling happily, and they almost splashed her just now, but it was Li Jingyan who pulled her away in time.
When the boatman saw this, he smiled and explained, "You guys are from out of town, right?" That's a coincidence.,These two days are our Songkran Festival.,Meaning blessing.,Those who don't know will splash it.,Can splash away bad luck.,Bring good luck.,Don't be afraid.,Everyone is playing.γ β
As if to confirm his words, in addition to the people he had just seen, so did the other people on the ship in the distance.
There were those who were splashed and soaked, and the organic spirits dodged and laughed cleanly......
There are all kinds of them.
Seeing this, Mu Shihuan's body relaxed, and it was only then that she realized that her body was tense just now.
She frowned slightly.
Immediately, she finally noticed the man's gaze, which kept falling on her.
didn't hide, she didn't shy away from it.
"Look at ......"
"Don't be afraid."
He interrupted what he wanted to say.
He only said this, but Mu Shihuan instantly understood, he knew, and he knew what he was afraid of.
In an instant, this feeling of being seen through made her feel annoyed, but she didn't show it on her face, and only said that she wanted to respond with a smile or not: "Why am I afraid, do you know the reason?" β
Know.
How did he not know?
"Yes." Finally, he looked at her and was honest.
Mu Shihuan didn't expect him to avoid it.
"It's good to know." The cold smile deepened, and she said mockingly.
After saying that, she turned her face away and admired the scenery opposite.
Li Jingyan's chest was dull, and he finally didn't say anything more.
The boatman also noticed the strangeness between the two, thinking that it was a little couple who were having an awkward relationship, so he said: "You guys are definitely here to play in Cloud City, you can put down anything unhappy here, really." β
Li Jingyan felt his kindness, raised his eyes and said to him, "Indeed." β
The boatman laughed, and couldn't help but say a few more words.
Li Jingyan listened carefully.
The two of them were able to chat a few words back and forth.
Mu Shihuan didn't listen, let alone want to listen, but he sat next to the man, even if he ignored it, his voice could still clearly penetrate into her ears, and even a thought flashed through her mind-
This man is obviously a high-ranking person, but now he can talk to strangers with great engagement.
Subconsciously, she moved her hand and wanted to withdraw it, but the man didn't give her a chance at all, as if he knew she would be like this.
In the end, she had to give up.
She still looked away, and the man's gaze swept over her from time to time.
Mu Shihuan ignored them all.
The atmosphere is eerie, but there seems to be another indescribable calm in the weirdness.
People came and went on both sides of the river, and she sat on the boat.
β¦β¦
"It's here, slow down when you get off the boat." When they arrived at the disembarkation point, the boatman smiled and advised.
Li Jingyan nodded: "Thank you." β
After paying, he went ashore first, and then stretched out his hand to Mu Shihuan.
At this time, the sun was setting, and the afterglow sprinkled down and shrouded him, hitting him on the side of the face, which seemed to add a bit of softness and affection.
Affectionate......
When this word popped up in his mind, Mu Shihuan's heart overflowed with layers of mockery.
But when she didn't see his hand, she went ashore on her own.
Li Jingyan's hand froze in mid-air.
With a slight pursion of his thin lips, he withdrew his hand and regained his grip on hers, leading her forward strongly and gently.
This time, Mu Shihuan still did not struggle.
But Li Jingyan knows very well that the reason for not struggling is not because she is willing, but because she doesn't care, she doesn't want to waste time with him, and nothing else.
The crowd of people coming and going, as long as they are not alone, are basically talking and laughing with their companions, only the two of them have been silent.
I don't know how long I walked, Mu Shihuan didn't want to go any further.
I was about to open my mouth and ask to return, but it suddenly rained on a good day.
Caught with one's pants down.
It just so happened that there was no shelter where the two walked and there was no place to hide, except for a gazebo in the distance.
The sky in Cloud City has always been changeable.
Suddenly, a man's coat covered her head, enveloping her with a familiar and unfamiliar aura.
Mu Shihuan frowned.
Before she could say anything, the man's hoarse voice cameβ
"Let's run over there."
The next second, the man pulled her and ran.
Mu Shihuan was forced to run.
In the pouring rain, she was led by the hand and ran to the gazebo, and he held her firmly, as if he wanted to lead her to a place where there was only her and him.
Ignore it, forget everything.
Seems......
It is enough to just hold each other's hands.
When we got to the gazebo, the rain was getting heavier and heavier.
Li Jingyan looked at Mu Shihuan and found that her body was trembling, and said in a deep voice: "I'll let people drive over, soon." β
Mu Shihuan didn't make a sound, she looked into the distance and ignored him.
Li Jingyan didn't force it, he took out his mobile phone and made a call.
In the rain, his voice was low.
β¦β¦
The car came quickly, and Li Jingyan naturally took Mu Shihuan's hand and got into the car.
Back at the B&B, he let go of her: "Go take a hot bath, don't catch a cold." β
Mu Shihuan was stunned, walked into the bedroom and closed the door.
Li Jingyan watched her back disappear, pursed her lips, and was in a complicated mood.
Mu Shihuan entered the bedroom only to find that she had brought his coat in, she took it off and threw it into the dirty clothes basket with an expressionless face, and then found her change of clothes and went into the bathroom.
There is a shower and a bathtub in the bathroom, the bathtub is very clean, and there is a disposable bath film next to it that can be used.
Mu Shihuan does not shower outside of his home.
However, when she looked at the bathtub, she had a picture of the first time she reacted violently to the bathtub water, which was the time in the hospital......
She thought about the boat ride today, without any fear of water.
Maybe......
Her heart beat slightly, and she walked to the bathtub, spread it with the bath film, and then began to put hot water.
The heat gradually poured out, and Mu Shihuan's eyes began to blur.
She didn't move, staring at the tub for a moment.
Her heart was beating fast, and one of the hands that hung down at her side gradually clenched unconsciously.
She swallowed her throat and undressed with some nervousness and stepped into one foot.
Except for being a little hot, I didn't feel anything else.
She continued.
Soon, both of her feet were stepping in, but there was still no feeling of suffocation of fear.
Bei Tooth bit her lower lip, and as if she had made up her mind, she sat down, letting the water cover her tense body.
My heart was beating faster and faster, and it slowly became frenzied, as if it was about to burst out of my chest.
Mu Shihuan took a deep breath.
Then......
She lay down, her head drowning in the water.
In an instant, there was discomfort.
But not the kind she was waiting for.
She went down further.
However, she waited and waited, and the fear never appeared, even if she deliberately recalled those two events.
It's weird.
Mu Shihuan's brows furrowed even tighter, and something seemed to flash in her mind, but she couldn't catch it too quickly.
After staying underwater for too long, the water temperature was a little high, and gradually she couldn't stand it anymore.
Realizing that this time it would still be as strange as sitting and dressing, she decided to get up.
However......
β¦β¦
Li Jingyan had just finished an important phone call and subconsciously looked at the closed door.
There was not a single sound.
He walked over and wanted to knock on the door, but thinking of her attitude, he hesitated for the first time.
Eventually, he returned to the couch.
Mo Yuan sent a document, which had to be dealt with by him, but Li Jingyan opened it but couldn't concentrate, his thoughts were always drawn by that door, and even affected others.
His fingertips rubbed over the screen, and suddenly, his expression froze.
Wrong!
With a pause, Li Jingyan quickly stood up.
"Mu Shihuan!" He knocked on the door.
No response.
"Mu Shihuan!"
His eyelids jumped violently, and he couldn't care about anything else, he turned the doorknob and rushed in, and then went straight to the bathroom.
When the door is pushed open......
In an instant, Li Jingyan's face changed suddenly.
"Shi Huan!"
