Chapter 1758  : He Is Actually Rather Dashing (28)

Would she get angry if he told her that his mind was filled with erotic images?!

He cleared his throat and said instead, “Maybe I’m just feeling warm.”

Warm?

Qiao Yiyi turned to look around them.

Indeed, the forest was hot and humid.

But still, it was cool compared to the normal environment. Why was he feeling so warm?

Puzzled, she furrowed her brow.

Time passed, minute after minute, second after second. Lu Nanze suddenly spoke, “Traceless.”

“Uh huh?”

She looked up from his wound, to glance at him for a moment.

“Talk to me for a bit.”

The man’s voice was weak.

Her heart jumped into her throat, her head snapped up at once and she asked him, “Are you feeling any discomfort?”

Lu Nanze shook his head and replied, “Just a little dizzy.”

The moment she heard the word dizzy, she panicked and said anxiously, “You have to stay awake! You hear me?!”

She turned and looked at his wound again.

She knew that he wanted her to talk to him so that he could maintain consciousness. If he were to pass out now, he could die losing all this blood.

At once, she said, “Why did you even jump? Don’t you know it was very dangerous?!”

Upon hearing this question, the man suddenly laughed and said, “I couldn’t help myself.”

Qiao Yiyi froze and was stunned for a moment. She turned to look at him. “What do you mean?”

He cast his gaze down. “Exactly what I said.”

Before this, he had not understood it himself. Why was he so focused on this girl?

But it had been in that split second that he had realized.

After the short period he had gotten to know the girl, he found himself liking her immensely.

To the extent that when she had fallen off the cliff, he had jumped after her without a second thought.

There had only been one thing in his mind at that point, and it had been to rescue her.

His mind had had no space for other thoughts besides that.

But now, as he recalled how he had felt at that point, he suddenly understood his own heart clearly.

And since he realized now that he liked the girl, then he should go after her.

Exactly what he said?

Qiao Yiyi paused.

He couldn’t help himself. Did that mean he hadn’t been to stop himself from rescuing her?

But why?

It couldn’t be that he liked her.

Impossible.

He only had Qiao Lian in his heart. He couldn’t possibly have fallen in love with another woman so easily.

Perhaps, he had other reasons for rescuing her?

Even though she told herself this, she could feel her heartbeat speed up uncontrollably.

At once, her face started to burn and flush.

It wasn’t even a confession, but she was reacting so strongly to it.

She berated herself silently, before looking up and staring into the man’s wickedly charming eyes.

Because he had lost a lot of blood, his eyes were not as bright as they normally were, but this instead brought out the mischievousness in them.

He held her gaze and suddenly asked, ”Traceless, will you ever love another man?”

Qiao Yiyi flushed deeply.

What was that? Was Lu Nanze trying to make a confession?!

She clenched her fists as an unfamiliar wave of nervousness washed over her.

She gulped and licked her parched lips. Then she quickly said, “I don’t know.”

The man persisted, however. “Well, haven’t you thought of giving it a try?”

Qiao Yiyi’s pupils shrank back.

She wasn’t the type to dodge questions and had always liked clarity. Hence, she asked point blank, “With whom?”
