Li Yan broke into a sweat, it was clear that she was genuinely emotional. Girls at this age still harbor intense romantic feelings, and hero-saving-beauty is often their dream scenario. Few get the chance to experience it, but she happened to encounter it several times, and it's natural for her to lose control a bit.

He pondered for a moment, and to avoid hurting her feelings, he said jokingly: "Wow! Does that mean I shouldn't dare to save anyone in the future? If it's a beautiful girl like you, I'd definitely hit the jackpot, but what if next time it's a bearded old man? I'd be losing out big time! This precedent shouldn't be set!"

Yu Xiaodi was amused and laughed, wrapping her arms around his waist, looking up at him, she softly said: "You can refuse others, since you think you've hit the jackpot, I hope you won't refuse me…"

Seeing her determined gaze, Li Yan patted her head and said with a smile: "Stop overthinking. The first time I saved you, everything was fine, the second time you let me see you, now the third time, you want to offer yourself. What if there's a fourth time? Wouldn't I be turned into a servant?"

"Be a servant then, I'll work for you…"

Such words seem insincere. Yu Xiaodi uttered them with an innocent romantic mind, yet hearing the serious tone, Li Yan felt a slight quiver inside, admitting he was somewhat touched. And the last three words were another kind of tremor.

"Stop talking like a child, how old are you? We've only known each other for a few days. What you feel is a mix of curiosity, gratitude, and romantic fantasy, not true liking for me. Offering yourself might lead you to regret…"

Listening to Li Yan's guidance, Yu Xiaodi nonetheless ignored it, pulling him forward a few steps, then with a push, she knocked him onto the bed!

Making this move, she felt both nervous and shy, yet a bit excited and thrilled, like unwrapping a precious birthday gift.

At this moment, Li Yan was extremely speechless. Over the years, although not saying he dominated the pleasure venue, he had indeed pushed down quite a few ladies, and there were some who were very proactive. However, being pushed down by a freshman college girl, one much younger than him, that had never happened, it was something he never imagined.

Faced with somewhat forbidden temptation, he admitted feeling moved and excited, yet had to consider more, this wasn't like the usual one-night stand!

Seeing him about to sit up, Yu Xiaodi became even bolder, pressing him down.

"Who says I'm young? Have you ever seen or touched…"

"Gosh! When did I ever touch you?"

"Video evidence!" Yu Xiaodi grinned, "Dare you say the one hugging me wasn't you?"

She leaned down a little, whispering: "I'm not little, almost reaching my twentieth birthday. Plus, my classmates… they all have boyfriends… in university, still single, the pressure's quite high…"

"..." Li Yan thought silently, what kind of mindset, what kind of environment is this!

"Haha, just kidding, I don't care what others think. Without meeting someone I like, even after graduation... it's all the same. But…"

The implied meaning was clear, Li Yan quickly said: "Stop overthinking. You've only known me for a few days, though I saved you, others could have done the same, like today's Li Jie, would you also offer yourself to her? Or if Ji Yi and Zhou Yunfei saved you…"

"It's not a few days, it's been fifteen days! I'm not falling for you at first sight, it's accumulated over time. Classic love often happens in a day, like Roman Holiday, A Chinese Odyssey, Titanic... fifteen days is already long enough."

"I didn't expect you to have a lot of misguided notions!" Li Yan smiled wryly. "Can you let me sit up to talk? This… isn't appropriate, right?"

"Humph, uncle, no need to pretend…" Yu Xiaodi blushfully glanced below, then continued: "I know what you mean, you think I'm blindly infatuated, but I'm telling you I've thought it through! You made good points, yet all three times you saved me, not anyone else, there's no ifs or buts, it's fate meant to be, destined for me to love you…"

"Seems like it's all your own connections, how could this be meant to be?"

"True!" Yu Xiaodi chuckled, "But if you cooperate, it's not just me presuming. Alright, brother, uncle, don't I know you by now? Stop pretending, your advice is just to ease your conscience… Yan gě gé, just surrender to me!"

"..."

Li Yan let out a breath, "Alright, let me put it bluntly! I'm married, you know that, you've even spoken to her on the phone."

Yu Xiaodi paused, "That really was your wife?"

"Yes."

Yu Xiaodi hesitated for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "No problem, I'm still young, not rushing to marry. I like you, not looking for any titles. I don't mind…"

"But I do!"

"You're lying, can someone like you resist loneliness? Chen Xiaoen, didn't you kiss her?"

Li Yan was a bit awkward, "That was a misunderstanding, I didn't know she hadn't kissed anyone before. I won't lie to you, my relationship with my wife isn't exactly smooth, so sometimes I'll have fun. Therefore, I've never felt any resistance towards you, you should sense that…"

"But you're not suited to play with me, we're friends, a one-night stand would make things awkward when we meet. Plus, students can't afford to play, I don't want fleeting happiness to bring lots of entanglements."

Having spoken this far, it was very straightforward. Li Yan originally didn't want to hurt her, but without saying this, it would trouble everyone.

Yu Xiaodi lowered her head, didn't speak for a while, then lay down again, face sideways on his chest, avoiding letting him see her teary eyes.

Li Yan gently stroked her back a few times, giving her time to process everything.

...

"Li Yan…"

"Hmm."

"You haven't liked me even a little?" Yu Xiaodi held back the tears in her eyes, not looking at his face, she asked as calmly as possible.

"This question…doesn't exist for me."

"Either you do or don't, don't brush me off…"

For a moment, Li Yan didn't know what to say. Truth be told, he didn't have much experience in this regard. Before, he might be asked "Are you happy?" "Satisfied?" "Why not stay till dawn."

In short, no girl had asked him this question before, or rather… he hadn't given anyone the chance to ask. So facing her so seriously, Li Yan was momentarily at a loss.

"I like you a little! Otherwise, with my personality, I wouldn't still bother with you." Li Yan reluctantly offered an answer, indeed, if it hadn't been for some degree of affection after continued contact, given the initial disastrous impression, he wouldn't entertain someone like her. "But this liking is not like yours, nor as intense…"

To Yu Xiaodi, hearing his answer was already satisfying. She didn't care about the latter emphasis, knowing clearly how she initially met him, and how she originally wanted to get back at him. He disliked her back then, even a week ago saving her, he told her not to contact him again. Now, having him admit he somewhat likes her made her very happy.

She quickly lifted her head, looking at him, she said, "Alright, then I'll save it for you!"

"Save what?" Li Yan was puzzled, catching that tiny tear in her eye still hasn't faded, his heart slightly softened.

"..." Yu Xiaodi softly said, "I said you're my destined one, so I will definitely offer myself to you, but since you can't accept it now… you'd feel wronged, so I'll save it for you, until you like me."

She seemed pleased with this decision.

Li Yan smiled wryly.

Yu Xiaodi, her spirits lifted, returned to her sunny self.

"Alright, now that's settled, Li Jie will come over soon, Zhou Yunfei might bring someone to pick you up too."

"Don't worry, no way so soon?" Yu Xiaodi didn't know how to do it, "You brought me here… isn't it because waiting longer would be unsafe…"

"Speaking of Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrives! And Li Jie as well, it wouldn't be good to be seen like this, right?"

Yu Xiaodi didn't even think about those, she thought of Chen Xiaoen instead, the girl who didn't seem close to him, yet he had already stolen her first kiss, it was infuriating!

Even more infuriating was that he still hasn't taken her own first kiss!

This is saved too?

No! I must take initiative!

She lowered her head and kissed down… (To be continued, for more details, please visit www.qidian.com, more chapters, support authors, support legitimate reading!)
