Those Sweet Times
Chapter 34 Part 1


Xiang Nuan stopped and slowly turned to look at Lin Chuyan.


It was snowing. She watched his handsome face, now only an arm’s length
away, through the floating snowflakes.


Lin Chuyan blinked, looking back at her with calm, gently eyes.


Xiang Nuan was confused. She lightly wiggled her arm out of his grip and
squinted.


“Lin Chuyan.” She called his name as the corner of her lips curled up: “You
aren’t having a crush on me, are you?” She asked hesitantly since she wasn’t
sure herself.


But it was obviously a question, despite the lack of conviction.


Lin Chuyan was stunned: “Ah?”


“I’m warning you, don’t have a crush on me. If you do, I’ll------” Xiang Nuan
was amused by the possibility: “I’ll laugh at you.”


Lin Chuyan chuckled: “You’re flattering yourself.”


Xiang Nuan also believed that she had put too much thought into it. But for
just a moment, she felt like something wasn’t right. But to think back on what
Lin Chuyan had said, there didn’t seem to be anything wrong with it? She was
the one who brought up slaves in the first place……


Xiang Nuan was a little embarrassed for flattering herself. She paid no attention
to Lin Chuyan as she turned around to walk back.


Lin Chuyan followed closely behind seemingly unable to put the topic to rest. He
kept laughing at her: “Why exactly makes you think I’m having a crush on you?”


“I have too many suitors so I’m overly sensitive, alright?” Xiang Nuan didn’t want
to continue with the topic. “Hurry, Hu Ge has been waiting for a while now.”


“Then.” Lin Chuyan changed the topic: “Why were you so angry before?”


To Lin Chuyan, the whole incident was more about making fun of Xiang Nuan
than Chen Yinghu. But Xiang Nuan didn’t get angry for herself but was outraged
on Chen Yinghu’s behalf.


She scolded him for Chen Yinghu and even wronged him.


“So you really care a lot about Hu Ge?” Lin Chuyan said: “But he already has a
girlfriend.”


“Hey, what are you thinking about!” Xiang Nuan couldn’t stop herself from rolling
her eyes.


Ever since she learned how to roll her eyes, it seemed that the times she did it to
Lin Chuyan had rapidly increased.


“Then, why were you angry? Tell me the truth.” Lin Chuyan pushed for an answer.


Xiang Nuan lowered her head to think, her steps slowed down. She had both hands
in her pockets and kicked the uneven brick pavement under the snow with the tips
of her boots.


Lin Chuyan’s focus was entirely on her. He watched snowflakes fall onto her black
hair and thought to himself that he should buy a hat for her later.


After a while, Xiang Nuan said: “Lin Chuyan, actually, I greatly fear that you’re the
kind of person who has fun with people’s emotions and treats genuine friendship
as a joke. I…...” As she was talking, she turned to look at him.


Lin Chuyan found her eyes were slightly red.


It was not because of other people, it was because of him.


“I really afraid that I’ll be disappointed at you.” She said.


A warm feeling filled Lin Chuyan. He hurriedly said: “Don’t worry.”


“En.” Xiang Nuan nodded and continued to go forward.


They didn’t exchange any more words. She walked in the front and he followed.
They walked out of the narrow alley and came back onto noisy Old Phoenix Street.


Xiang Nuan noticed that Chen Yinghu had bought an oiled paper umbrella wrapped
in a layer of plastic.


Why did an umbrella need to be protected from water?


Chen Yinghu explained with a blush: “It’s a gift.”

Xiang Nuan saw the pink colored flowers on the umbrella and instantly understood
who it was for.
