Love So Sweet

209 Zhang Yi Hai’s Embrace

Fang Su Jin blinked as she continued to listen to Zhang Yi Hai’s soothing voice. His voice sounded soft as he was trying to coax her not to cry.

Everything happened so quickly. It took her a while to process that she was now in Zhang Yi Hai’s embrace. His arms were strong and his shoulders were wide.

Listening to his words, Zhang Yi Hai seemed to think that she has been crying.

Wait. When did she cry? Why didn’t she know that she was crying?

She was too furious with what Mika had tried to do to her. But no matter what, she would not cry about it, alright?

Fang Su Jin wanted to explain. However, with their posture right now... it was better to let Zhang Yi Hai continue to misunderstand. Otherwise, both of them would be embarrassed.

Fang Su Jin stayed quietly in his embrace. Her thoughts were running wild.

A ringing sound finally broke their moment.

Zhang Yi Hai pulled away and saw that Tang Yin was answering a phone call at the side.

.....

He turned to Fang Su Jin again and bent forward until they were both face to face.

His move was too sudden and it was startling her. Fang Su Jin’s face turned red upon noticing their closeness. Swiftly, she took a step back. “What are you...”

“It’s good that you are okay.” Zhang Yi Hai was still worried that the girl would cry until her eyes were swollen. Seeing that the tears had dried, his heart was finally at ease.

The words that Fang Su Jin wanted to say were stuck in her throat. She did not know what she should say at a time like this. She lowered her head, not daring to meet Zhang Yi Hai’s gaze.

Fortunately, Zhang Yi Hai’s roommates were still around and the awkward atmosphere between them did not last for too long.

Tang Yin walked over and spoke, “Yi Hai, the others called to know when will we be joining them?”

Zhang Yi Hai frowned. It was then that he recalled that their classmates had decided to gather and have some fun together. Just now, he seemed to have agreed to join them.

But now...

His gaze shifted to Fang Su Jin again.

After what happened, he did not want to leave Fang Su Jin alone. Zhang Yi Hai did not want to give that person a chance to return again and harass Fang Su Jin.

Zhang Yi Hai weighted the decision in his mind and spoke, “Tang Yin, Liu Jin, both of you should go ahead and join the get-together. I won’t be joining you guys.”

“Ah?” Both Tang Yin and Liu Jin exchanged a look.

“Please help me to apologize to everyone,” Zhang Yi Hai continued.

“Then, what about you? Yi Hai, where are you going?” Liu Jin asked.

Zhang Yi Hai turned to Fang Su Jin. “I’ll have to send Sister Fang back first. I won’t be at ease to leave her alone.”

The sky had turned dark. Even if it wasn’t for Mika, Zhang Yi Hai would not be at ease letting Fang Su Jin return to the hotel alone.

“This... Zhang Yi Hai, you don’t have to.” Fang Su Jin heard their conversation and quickly understood what was going on. Zhang Yi Hai already have a plan with his friends and she did not want to be the reason to stop him from going out with his friends.

Zhang Yi Hai looked at Fang Su Jin with a serious look on his face. “Sister Fang, I can’t let you return to the hotel alone. You are my sister’s friend. She will definitely scold me if I dared to leave you alone.”

“Then, we don’t have to tell her?” Fang Su Jin suggested. However, the moment she saw the fierce look on Zhang Yi Hai’s face, Fang Su Jin began to retreat again.

What is this? She was clearly the eldest person around. Why would she be scared of this boy?

However, no matter how many times Fang Su Jin reminded herself not to be afraid, she would always shrink back.

“Otherwise... Sister Fang, do you want to join us?” Tang Yin spoke.

Zhang Yi Hai looked up and shot his roommate a displeased look.

However, Tang Yin decided to ignore that look. Now that he had mentioned it, Tang Yin seemed to think that it was such a good idea. “Sister Fang, why don’t you come and join us as well? There’s going to be just us and our classmates. The girls will be joining us as well. I’m sure they would not mind having you around.”

Anyway, as long as Zhang Yi Hai joined, the others will surely have no complaints.

Fang Su Jin hesitated.

She did not want to let Zhang Yi Hai change his plan because of her... However, this boy was too stubborn. He would surely not let her return to the hotel alone.

“Are you sure the others won’t mind?”

Both Tang Yin and Liu Jin’s eyes lit up when they heard Fang Su Jin’s words.

“Sister Fang, they won’t mind,” Liu Jin spoke quickly. “After all, the more, the merrier.”

“Sister Fang, you...” Zhang Yi Hai frowned.

“It’s alright.” Fang Su Jin flashed him a smile. “Mika knows where I am staying. I worry that he might be waiting for me there.”

“Do you think that the security at our hotel is that bad?” Zhang Yi Hai said.

Fang Su Jin coughed. “I don’t mean that.” She had almost forgotten that she was now staying at The Orchid, the hotel that belonged to the Zhang family. “Actually, I don’t feel like returning to the hotel at the moment. I just wanted to take a walk for a bit of air. Going with your friends sounds like fun.”

Zhang Yi Hai was not convinced by her words.

“What is it?” Fang Su Jin raised a brow. “It seemed that you are unwilling to let me come along. Zhang Yi Hai, are you worried that I might meet your girlfriend and tell your sister about it? I can promise that I won’t tell her anything.”

The frown on his face deepened. “Of course, not.”

Fang Su Jin smiled at his answer.

“I don’t have a girlfriend.”
