My bamboo horse is a bit fierce

Chapter 253 Warmth in the Darkness (9)

"You...are you really not afraid at all?" Duan Jingyan asked persistently.

To be honest, there really has never been a girl beside him who is not afraid of this kind of eerie environment.

"Yeah, what's there to be afraid of?" Lin Xia stared puzzled.

Duan Jingyan didn't know how to answer her question.

Could it be that he wants to directly say that he wants her to be afraid?
However, it seems that she won't panic after saying that...

Taking a deep breath, he moved closer to her side, and then grabbed her soft and smooth wrist with his warm palm, "It's okay, even if you're not afraid, I will protect you!"

The source of accumulated heat came slowly from the wrist, and the hot touch was like a surge of warm current, spreading from the cold skin to the bottom of my heart.

The heat wave in my heart was rolling, as if it would explode inadvertently.

Lin Xia's fingertips moved slightly, and Duan Jingyan's sudden movement made her feel overwhelmed and uncomfortable.

Including the one just now, today this is the second time he has taken her hand so actively and naturally.

Did he realize that doing so would misunderstand others?

Although there is no one else here now, she still doesn't want to do this.

"Brother, please let go, okay?"

She looked directly at him and spoke her inner thoughts directly.

Although she was very grateful for his protection...but she really didn't want to go on like this anymore.

Because, if he takes this as a habit in the future.So, what should she do?
To accept, to reject, or to let go?

After hearing Lin Xia's words, Duan Jingyan's eyes flickered, and then he lowered his head and looked directly into her eyes.

"Since I held your hand, I have no intention of letting go!"

His domineering and swearing words made Lin Xia's heart tremble.

Not knowing whether it was because of shock or anger, she suddenly opened her mouth and whispered, "Duan Jingyan, let go!"

As soon as the words fell, both of them froze.

Then, Duan Jingyan smiled softly, "En... Duan Jingyan. Very good, I like this title very much."

Listening to Duan Jingyan's teasing laughter, Lin Xia lowered her head annoyed, her intention was obviously not like this.

Just when she was feeling upset, Duan Jingyan continued to speak slowly, "Since you call me Duan Jingyan, should I change your name too? Let me think about it, what should I call you?"

After pondering for a few seconds, he said again, "Well... Xia Xia seems pretty good. Do you like this name?" He looked at her teasingly, with a smile that he couldn't hide.

After finishing speaking, his face suddenly approached her inch by inch, and then stopped only a few centimeters away from her ear.

"Xia Xia..." His charming and magnetic voice echoed in her ears.Then, slowly, it drifted away in the air...

The soft words seemed to be still in his ears, Lin Xia stroked his forehead in embarrassment, not going to pay attention to Duan Jingyan's words.

Looking at her wrist that was still tightly held by him, she sighed helplessly and had to change the subject, "Brother, there is only one hour, let's hurry up and start collecting clues."

"Brother? Shouldn't it be Duan Jingyan?" He teased her in a very good mood.

"I was in a hurry just now, brother, hurry up and start." She really didn't want to continue this topic.

In the darkness, Duan Jingyan chuckled joyfully again, and then led Lin Xia to start looking for clues to escape from this tomb-robbing city.
