Love So Sweet

385 Do You Mind My Age?

Fang Su Jin stood at the side and waved her hand as she watched the vehicle drive away. Once she could no longer see the vehicle, she lowered her hand again and heaved a faint sigh.

It was still unbelievable that her friend, Zhang Li Xue would be getting her marriage certificate today.

In just a short time, Zhang Li Xue was now a married person.

As she recalled the smile on her friend’s face again and heaved another sigh. She wished for Zhang Li Xue’s long-time happiness with Bai Qi.

Fang Su Jin turned around and instantly, the look on her face stiffened.

She had almost forgotten about Zhang Yi Hai.

Now that the others had left, she now had to stay with Zhang Yi Hai alone. This time, she could not resist taking his car and letting him drive her back.

Fang Su Jin thought that she could still control her expression well around Zhang Yi Hai. However, when she recalled that they had shared the same straw earlier, Fang Su Jin would feel awkward again.

Her heartbeat was still in chaos.

.....

Fang Su Jin was worried that Zhang Yi Hai would know what was going on in her mind.

“Sister Fang, should we go now?” Zhang Yi Hai asked.

The young man’s expression remained calm as always.

This made Fang Su Jin feel embarrassed about her own feeling.

Now that she thought about it, Fang Su Jin thought that she was too ridiculous. It was just sharing a straw. It should not mean anything else. Then, why was she too agitated over this?

Fang Su Jin quickly readjusted her mood and nodded. “Alright. Let’s go.” She watched as Zhang Yi Hai turned around and followed after him.

Zhang Yi Hai helped her with the door before he went to the driver’s seat. He turned on the ignition and waited for Fang Su Jin to put her seatbelt on before he drive.

The atmosphere in the vehicle was silent.

Zhang Yi Hai glanced at the person beside him with a helpless look on his face.

The moment Fang Su Jin entered the car, she would turn her head to look out the window. It made him wonder if Fang Su Jin did not like to see him.

He could not help but wonder if he had done something wrong to make her upset.

Of course, Zhang Yi Hai was unaware that a certain someone was watching him through the reflection.

At this time, Fang Su Jin was still trying to figure out her feelings.

Each time that she looked at Zhang Yi Hai, her heart would beat fast. She knew that she should not have a feeling for her friend’s little brother, but she just could not help it.

Fang Su Jin thought that staying away from Zhang Yi Hai would help her slowly remove a certain feeling. However, in the past few days, the two of them have been spending a lot of time together.

The feeling grew slowly and steadily.

Even if she wanted to try to forget her feelings, Fang Su Jin found that she could no longer do it.

Without realizing it, she had really fallen for this young man and could no longer back out.

She was not as brave as Zhang Li Xue who would dare to confess when she was sure of her feelings. Moreover, each time that she recalled Zhang Yi Hai’s identity as her friend’s little brother, Fang Su Jin would feel uncomfortable.

She had watched Zhang Yi Hai ever since he was a baby. Was it appropriate for her to like him?

Other than stealing a few glances at him, Fang Su Jin did not dare to do anything else.

Just as they were about to reach her home, Fang Su Jin realized that Zhang Yi Hai made a turn in the other direction.

Fang Su Jin turned to Zhang Yi Hai and asked, “Where are we going?”

Zhang Yi Hai did not answer but continued to drive straight until they reached the park nearby her house. He found a parking spot underneath a shady tree and pulled over.

Fang Su Jin scanned her surroundings before she finally looked at Zhang Yi Hai again. “Zhang Yi Hai, why are we here? What are you trying to do?”

A helpless sigh escaped him. “Sister Fang, relax. I’m not going to do anything to you.”

“Then, why do you bring me here?”

“I have something to talk to you about,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke. “I figured that if I tell it to you after dropping you off at your house, your father might stop me again for a cup of tea.”

Fang Su Jin saw the faint smile on the young man’s face and felt her heartbeat accelerate again. She thought about her father who was still at home and thought that Zhang Yi Hai’s words made sense.

Her father would definitely pull Zhang Yi Hai into the house again...

Taking a deep breath, Fang Su Jin gradually relaxed. “Then, what is it that you want to tell me?”

Zhang Yi Hai did not answer her quickly. He stared at Fang Su Jin’s face for a while, making her feel agitated. Seeing that she was getting restless, Zhang Yi Hai then spoke again, “Sister Fang, are you trying to avoid me?”

His sudden question startled her.

Fang Su Jin was filled with a guilty conscience. She wondered if Zhang Yi Hai noticed her feelings.

Was her action too transparent?

“Of course, not.” Fang Su Jin quickly denied it.

“Then, are you afraid of me?”

“Of course, not,” Fang Su Jin spoke quickly.

At this time, Fang Su Jin was confident that she had made Zhang Yi Hai suspect something. Fang Su Jin started to panic, but she did not know what else she should do to dispel his suspicion.

“You are Zhang Yi Hai. My friend’s little brother. I watched you from a young age. Why would I be afraid of you?”

Fang Su Jin realized that she was rumbling.

Zhang Yi Hai frowned slightly. “Then, do you mind my age? That I’m younger than you?”

“Ah?”

The topic had shifted so suddenly. Fang Su Jin was having a hard time trying to understand what was going on.

“Y-you...” Fang Su Jin stuttered. “Why are you asking me this?” Her throat bobbed upon noticing the strange way that Zhang Yi Hai has been looking at her. “Zhang Yi Hai, why do you look at me like that?”

Her heart was in chaos. Fang Su Jin wanted to run, but she could not make a move.

“Sister Fang,” Zhang Yi Hai spoke again after a long time. He took a deep breath and tightened his hand into a fist to summon his courage. “I like you.”
