Chapter 196: Love At First Sight
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
That scene just now was too stupid and ridiculous!
Xia Wei would never have thought that her first reaction after being confessed to by Jian Tan would be to choke on the wind and cough non-stop.
Even the scripts of idol dramas would not be written like this. A realistic, hilarious genre would probably work. Xia Wei thought about this and tears welled up in the corners of her eyes because of her laughter.
Jian Tan couldn’t hold it in anymore. He shook his head helplessly and said with a smile, “I find that you have such double standards. I can’t even smile gently, and you’re not allowed to laugh because of your ‘threats’! How can you laugh like this yourself? Also, do you think this matter is really so funny? Do you want to return to the main topic and consider what I just said?”
As Jian Tan spoke, the smile on his lips did not change. However, the expression in his eyes became deeper, like an enchanting quiet pool of water. It made people fall into it involuntarily and willingly submit to his sincerity and enthusiasm.
Similarly, Xia Wei could not resist Jian Tan’s unrestrained charm. She felt her breathing stop and her heart beat faster.
Her voice was a little gentle, as if she was in a dilemma. “But how long have you known me? Why do you like me? What do you like about me? I’m so impulsive and willful. I’ll always offend others if I’m not careful. I’m not gentle or cute. What’s there to like?”
Jian Tan looked at Xia Wei in surprise. After waiting for her puzzled voice to settle, he smiled and said gently, “Do you think liking someone has an inevitable relationship with how long you’ve known her? If you have to use the length of time they’ve known each other to determine how much one likes another, won’t love at first sight become a joke?”
“Or do you think that love at first sight doesn’t exist? Or do you think it can’t be trusted?” Jian Tan’s voice was very low and gentle, like a cello’s thick and solid tone. It made people feel at ease and reliable for no reason.
Xia Wei was not a fool. She naturally knew that there was nothing wrong with what Jian Tan said. She could also hear that Jian Tan wanted to know her opinion on “love at first sight”. Jian Tan was hinting at her…
He already had a good impression of her the first time they met. Jian Tan liked Xia Wei not because it was “on the spur of the moment”, but because she was scheming!
If not, how could he explain why Jian Tan insisted on participating in [Heartthrob TA] back then? How could he explain joining such a useless love variety show otherwise?
Jian Tan was the Best Actor of the film and television industry. His status was extraordinary and he had a heaven-defying number of fans. Why did he take it so hard to participate in a popular love variety show?
He did not lack this bit of exposure. He was going for Xia Wei!
His goal was simple and clear. His methods were step by step. He walked a step-by-step path.
“No! I didn’t think that way. I just think…” Xia Wei suddenly stopped talking. She had many unsatisfactory moments today.
However, Jian Tan was very patient. He turned his head slightly and looked at Xia Wei with gentle and encouraging eyes. “What do you think? Do you think you’re not someone who can make others fall in love at first sight? Then as the person involved, I won’t agree. 1 want to give you the same thing you said to me just now!”
“Do you want to hear what you’re saying too? Can you have more self-awareness? If you’re not, who else in the world is my ‘love at first sight’?”
Jian Tan was indeed worthy of being the Best Actor who had gotten the Grand Slam. Even though he was in the entertainment industry, he had always been a clean person with no scandals. However, this did not mean that he did not have ordinary emotions and desires!
Jian Tan would also like someone and rack his brains to think of ways to get close to her. He would learn some sweet and intoxicating words of love without any guidance.
Xia Wei felt that she was about to go crazy from this man’s teasing. She seriously suspected that the rumor that Jian Tan had never been in a relationship was a bluff because Jian Tan was so good at talking that her heart was almost arrhythmic..
