Novel Full Chapter 1134: Pretending Hard to Get or Shy?
At this point, Si Yiyan was a far cry from the calm front he put up. As he looked at her gorgeous brows furrowing deeply and her tiny face all scrunched up in an uncertain expression, he couldn’t help but feel anxious.
He felt that the relationship between him and Xinya had all along progressed naturally.
In the past, when he courted her, he had set up everything perfectly so that she couldn’t escape. After they were official and up till they entrusted each other with their bodies, everything went smoothly. Now, he was also suggesting cohabitation as he felt that the only thing that stood between them was the status on the red booklet.
However, now, she was hesitating, considering, feeling uneasy, and giving excuses…
His heart skipped a beat.
His brain worked quickly, rapidly analyzing the current situation, assessing his leverages, and at the same time reflecting if he was being too brazen, if this suggestion was too sudden, or if he had done something less than ideal and made her feel all kinds of insecure emotions?
Wen Xinya thought hard and couldn’t help but murmur, “But I heard others say that a couple in love shouldn’t stick together for extended periods of time. Otherwise, it’ll affect their feelings for each other—only distance creates passion.”
By staying together, both parties would expose their weaknesses and argue frequently about trivial matters—how damaging was it to a relationship. Additionally, it would be easy to get sick of each other if they were together all the time—once they got tired of each other, the relationship would be ruined.
She agreed.
She felt that she had a great relationship with Si Yiyan because in the past, she was young and forbidden and he couldn’t taste her, so he pined for her. After that, he couldn’t get enough of her, so he kept thinking about her.
If they were to really cohabit and he got to fulfill all his needs, wouldn’t that return everything to their boring states?
Men didn’t take to boredom.
Hearing her illogical reasoning, Si Yiyan furrowed his brows deeply and said, “Says who? Isn’t trial marriages very common nowadays? This means that a couple in love cohabits with the intention of marriage, interacting and ironing things out before getting married so as to build a strong and peaceful married life.”
Although he felt that there wasn’t a need for him and Xinya to go through this process of ironing things out before marriage, this reason was very persuasive. Although women liked to listen to sweet nothings, when it came to practicality, men were better at it.
“Seems like it!” Wen Xinya was persuaded. There was no need to talk about the future if a couple couldn’t overcome issues of being sick and tired of each other and stay true to their relationship before getting married…
Si Yiyan smiled. “Xinya, you’ve gotta trust me. With me around, everything you’re worried about won’t exist.”
Women had way more considerations than men when it came to relationships. He was willing to be understanding and respectful of her.
Only then did Wen Xinya felt embarrassed and suddenly pursed her lips, not knowing if she should agree.
Okay~
She admitted that she was just playing hard to get!
However, all women would act this way when faced with these circumstances!
This wasn’t a simple question about daily matters like eating and drinking but cohabitation!
All women would feel shy and avoid it.
Was she going to agree?
After all, she was only eighteen-years-old and had just turned legal. It seemed rather bold to cohabit with a man at this age.
However, Si Yiyan had taken the pains to arrange everything. If she were to reject him, he would be so disappointed!
Moreover, she had already treated Si Yiyan quite badly. It was already hard on him that due to her issues, they were still not in an open relationship up till now. If she didn’t even satisfy such a request from him, it seemed unfair to him.
Additionally, there were actually no implications of agreeing to him. After all, things had progressed naturally between them. It had been a long three years from the time they met until they fell in love. It would be understandable for them to cohabit?
Si Yiyan locked his gaze on Wen Xinya as he waited for her answer.
Under his gaze, Wen Xinya felt even more embarrassed and just couldn’t get the “yes” word out of her mouth although she already agreed in her heart…
Was it because she was too embarrassed?
Definitely.
Thus, she said in a useless and sudden manner, “Si Yiyan, we’re going to conduct four weeks of military training in two days’ time. I heard that the training this around will be rather tough and many people lamented about the fully militarized training.”
After saying it, Wen Xinya almost didn’t dare to look at Si Yiyan straight in the eye.
Ah ah ah! Wen Xinya, you’re too useless.
Isn’t it just cohabitation?
Is it necessary to play so hard to get?
Wen Xinya reprimanded herself severely in her heart.
Although Si Yiyan was slightly disappointed, he wasn’t devastated. “The so-called militarized training is actually just stricter than before and won’t be more than what you guys can physically take. Moreover… under my training, your physical ability is already quite good and will be more than good enough for the military training this around, so you don’t have to worry.”
Although she didn’t agree, she didn’t reject either. After careful consideration, it was almost certain that she would agree. As Si Yiyan rationalized with himself, his bright and creative brain started plotting the plan to make her agree.
Wen Xinya couldn’t help but heave a sigh of relief. Instead of getting angry, he still patronized her. She said coquettishly, “However, with such hot weather in September this year, I’ll definitely become tanner after a month of military training.”
Everyone liked to look good. In the past, Xinya didn’t care about her looks at all. However, after getting together with Si Yiyan, she was particularly concerned about her looks. There was a saying that a woman made herself beautiful for her sweetheart! Now that someone was admiring her, she naturally wanted to present her best side to that person all the time.
Si Yiyan said, “Bring along some skincare products and sunblock and you shouldn’t become too tanned. You have a great skin foundation. Even if you really become tanned, you’ll be fair again in no time. No worries.”
Wen Xinya agreed and so didn’t think about this issue anymore. She couldn’t help but pout and said, “The military training will be totally enclosed. We won’t be able to meet for a month.”
Saying which, she really felt slightly down. Apart from before they fell in love, she and Si Yiyan hadn’t been separated for a whole month. Suddenly, she felt a little depressed.
Si Yiyan kissed her cheek gently and said, “That can’t be helped, either.”
The training grounds wouldn’t be any top secret. It should be a piece of cake to sneak inside to meet her by making use of some connections. However, he wouldn’t tell her that for the time being.
Wen Xinya felt slightly down as she looked at Si Yiyan and said, “After I complete my military training, I’ll move out alone.”
Saying which, her mood lightened and she couldn’t help but smile joyfully.
Indeed, a person still followed her heart.
