Returning after she took a hot spring bath and swam, An Xiaoning found Jin Qingyan standing at the balcony as he talked on the phone. She stood near the door, hearing him speak fluently in a foreign language she could not understand. When he saw her, he quickly ended the call.

“You’re done swimming?”

“Umm, let’s have a drink.” She turned and headed into the room.

He slowly poured the blue liquid of Dreamy Yanghe into two cocktail glasses.

Staring at the drink, she commented, “The cocktail wine that you concoct is still the best. Even the best vintage wine outside can’t compare to this.”

“Other people are not fortunate enough to drink the cocktail wine I personally concoct.” He looked down at the drink and took a small sip.

She hugged her legs as she laughed, asking leisurely, “What do you think about love?”

Hearing her question, Jin Qingyan seemed rather taken aback for a moment. “Love?”

“Umm. Do you believe that in this world, there’s a kind of love which can make one give up everything for, even their own life?”

He swirled the cocktail glass and replied casually, “A stupid act of giving up on your life for your loved one. I know, it exists everywhere in this world.”

She asked with a faint smile, “What you claim to be a stupid act, do you think you’ll have the chance to do it in your life?”

He put down the cocktail glass in his hand and looked at her in deep thought. “I know you want me to say that there’s a chance. But, I honestly feel that there probably won’t be one for me. I’m not a person who can be so easily defeated by someone. Someone who can make me sacrifice my life must be… incomparable to anyone else in this world. That’s what I think.”

“I really hope that you’ll fall in love with me sooner.”

“Why?”

“Because this way, my heart will be more at ease. Even though I don’t need to get a sense of security from you, I want a marriage with some quality.” She got up and went to lie down on the bed, shutting her eyes as she lay on one side. “Aren’t you coming up? I’m waiting for you already.”

Jin Qingyan did not appear in front of her like he always did, but said instead, “I’ll go and take a hot spring bath too.”

He turned and left the bedroom.

An Xiaoning opened her eyes and hurriedly got up. She followed behind Jin Qingyan, who was ahead of her.

An unusual sign like this made her especially sensitive.

As yet, there was no one outside other than personnel patrolling.

He had just reached a secluded area when his phone rang.

An Xiaoning stood not far away and could hear him speaking in a foreign language to the other party he had been speaking to. It seemed like in the bedroom, his phone conversation had not really ended but was interrupted by her.

She stood behind a tree, making no movement at all.

He got increasingly agitated and seemed very angry. Even though his voice sounded like he was holding it in, she could still tell that he was extremely furious.

It seemed as if he was arguing with the other party about something.

An Xiaoning could not understand a thing from their conversation and did not know why he was angry at all. She suddenly felt that she had a lot to learn. Foreign languages, for instance.
