Chapter 335: You’re So Much Older Than Me. You’re An Old Man Who Cheated A Young Girl In Her Prime
Duoyao turned her face around silently. Every time this topic was raised, she would feel like jumping into a ditch and burying herself.
“Can you stop bringing up this topic?” She grumbled weakly. “It’s so embarrassing.”
“So you understand that it’s embarrassing too?” Yan Molun’s thin lips raised slightly. “Do you women always talk about things like that when you get together?”
“…” Duoyao coughed softly and said shamelessly, “You sound as if you men are very pure. Don’t you all talk about it too?”
Yan Molun stroked her head and suddenly changed the topic. “Do you find it tiring when we kiss?”
They jumped topics too suddenly and it was still so embarrassing.
Duoyao pressed her fiery lips together and couldn’t really put a finger on it because he had always been the one bending down, so she didn’t find it tiring.
“Not every man in this world has an ideal type of woman based on her height and looks.” Yan Molun lowered her head and gazed into her eyes. “To me, height doesn’t matter. I don’t find it tiring at all. I’m strong and can easily lift you up with one arm just like the day before…”
The day before…
Duoyao felt her face burning.
“Do you want to try again?” He suddenly bent down.
“No.” Duoyao quickened her pace down the mountain shyly.
“Walk slower. Don’t fall.” Yan Molun held her hand tightly. This little lass was still very shy. It seemed like he still had a lot of training to do on her.
—————
Ever since the two of them saw the little rabbit off, Duoyao began to feel that something had changed. For example, when the three of them ate, Yan Molun would sit a little closer to her and would sometimes hold her hand when they were playing cards but she would retract her hand like a frightened little rabbit. When Xiling saw that, her eyes almost popped out.
Yan Molun didn’t mind and continued playing cards as if nothing had happened. Actually, after spending more time together, he realized that Duoyao was someone who only dared to think but didn’t act. Besides, she was very thin-skinned and he needed to give her some time to adapt.
When Yan Molun left, Xiling grabbed Duoyao agitatedly and interrogated her: “Are you two going out?”
“That… should be the case.” Duoyao was embarrassed. Although Yan Molun didn’t spell it out, he did seem to mean it through his words. Besides, he would always hold her hand when there was no one around.
“What do you mean should? That’s it.” Xiling patted her shoulder. “Well done. We won’t have to worry about food or water in the days to come. However, if Sister Shuang were to find out that you came here she would chop me to pieces.”
At the mention of Sister Shuang, Duoyao quickly asked, “Did you send the videos you took of me to Sister Shuang?”
“I did. I don’t know how the public reacted.” Xiling propped her leg up lazily. “One day in the mountains is a thousand years on the outside. We don’t even know who’s the hottest celebrity now or if anyone still remembers you, Jiang Duoyao.”
“Enough said.” Duoyao felt like vomiting blood just thinking of it. This assistant seemed to be born to question her existence.
“Aiya, it looks like I have to be more tactful in the future.” Xiling nudged her with a grin. “You won’t suddenly move over to stay with him, right? I’ll be afraid of being alone.”
Duoyao’s head heated up. Moving over to stay with Yan Molun…
She shook her head quickly and didn’t even dare to think of it. She had never slept with a man before.
“What’s the big deal about that? You two are already in a relationship. It’s natural to stay together. If you don’t get used to it now, you’ll still have to get used to it in the future.” Xiling crossed her legs. “If the crown prince were to find out that you got yourself a boyfriend here, would that drive him to his grave?”
The crown prince she was referring to was Kang Anhe. Duoyao tilted her head. She almost forgot about Kang Anhe. In the past, she thought that Kang Anhe wasn’t bad. Now, he couldn’t even compare to Yan Molun’s finger.
However, at the thought that she would have to stay with Yan Molun in the future, Duoyao was a little curious, expectant and also a little afraid.
…
The next day, when Duoyao returned to the dormitory after class, Xiling was setting the table. There were only two sets of cutlery. She was bewildered. “Yan Molun isn’t coming over to eat?”
“He went to Yongge Town to buy some things in the morning.” Xiling grinned. “Why? Are you already feeling awful that you won’t be seeing him for one meal? Or are you afraid that he was going to Sang Hua’s house to eat?”
“None of that.” Duoyao pouted. However, she was still a little unaccustomed to his absence during the meal.
Yan Molun only returned in the evening. He was carrying many bags in his hands, making Duoyao click her tongue upon seeing such sight. “You brought back a month’s worth of supplies.”
“Mm.” Yan Molun put the things down. “I’ll have to leave the day after tomorrow. This time, I will probably be gone for around half a month to a month.”
The air in the room suddenly became still. Xiling looked at Duoyao. Duoyao was out of sorts. After a while, she said, “Oh. Why didn’t you mention it before? Are you not used to living here and want to take a breather outside?”
“No. I have something to do.” Yan Molun’s lips pressed into a thin line after saying that.
Xiling turned around silently. Yan Molun held Duoyao’s hand. “Come out.”
Duoyao staggered behind him as they went out. Although the moon was out tonight, it was still pitch dark everywhere. Yan Molun didn’t pull her too far out. Duoyao followed silently behind him. In a place like this, she would usually be afraid just to use the toilet, but with him around, she felt an inexplicable sense of security but at the same time, she felt nervous because they were alone in such a quiet place at night. However, he would be leaving tomorrow and she didn’t even know why.
Would he look for other women when he left her sight? Duoyao didn’t know anything at all.
Yan Molun stopped and stood tall but it was too dark and she could only distinctly see his features and gleaming eyes.
“I’ve gotten quite used to staying here,” he said in a low and hoarse voice. “But this time, I’m going to Myanmar to participate in stone gambling.”
“Stone gambling?” Duoyaow as stunned. She asked softly, “You even know that?”
“Mm. I’ll earn a few tens of millions for you to spend as pocket money.” Yan Molun swept away the strand of hair by her ear. She could feel his slightly rough fingertips. Her cheek trembled and was even a little hot. She couldn’t help but say softly with a pout, “I can earn money on my own. I don’t want you to give me pocket money.”
“It isn’t very cute when a woman says that.” After sweeping her hair away, Yan Molun put his hands on her shoulders. “Aren’t the men supposed to earn money for women to spend? If you don’t spend my money, am I to give it to other women for her to spend?”
“You dare?” She lifted her gaze. Her eyes were round and bright.
Yan Molun’s lips finally curled into a smile. “I don’t. I have to leave the day after tomorrow. Let’s have a good hug tonight.”
Before Duoyao could even blush, her thin and small body was already pulled into his embrace.
The night was still very cold but his body was just like a furnace, heating up constantly. Her face became a little red as it stuck to his chest.
They hugged quietly for around five minutes before Yan Molun sent her back.
…
The next day, when Duoyao returned to the school dormitory after her afternoon class, Yan Molun was already boiling water for her bath. Duoyao watched his back and was secretly slightly touched.
He would be gone for quite a period of time but he had already considered everything. Her food, her water and he even helped her boil her bathing water.
After the water was boiled, he poured the water into a vat for her and walked out, closing the door behind him.
They played cards for a while that night and Duoyao saw him out. “Are you leaving very early tomorrow?”
“Around seven in the morning. You should be up already.” After saying that, Yan Molun suddenly put his arms around her waist.
Duoyao took a step back and was extremely embarrassed. They were in the field. Although the sky was dark, she still felt shy.
Yan Molun had no time for her to be shy. In order to allow her to adapt, he had been taking it slow recently. He lowered his head and captured her lips, kissing her until her lips were red and swollen. He rested for a while before going at it again.
Duoyao got the shock of her life. He was simply kissing her again and again. Every time she thought it was about to end, he would come at it again in the next second.
She thought that seeing him off would only take a few minutes. In the end, she never thought that he could drag it out for half an hour.
After kissing her, Yan Molun pulled out his phone. “What’s your number? Let me save it.”
Duoyao was stunned for a while and suddenly realized they had never exchanged numbers up until today. It was probably rare for a couple to be dating for a few days without knowing each other’s numbers.
The two exchanged numbers and Duoyao suddenly recalled something again. “I think I don’t know how old you are.”
Yan Molun replied slowly, “32.”
“32?” Duoyao took a deep breath in. “Why are you so much older than me?”
Yan Molun’s face sank immediately. “Is that considered old?”
“Of course. You’re seven years older than me.” Duoyao’s lips trembled. She felt like crying. She had thought her boyfriend was five years older than her at the most. “You’re so close to Song Chuyi; shouldn’t you be around his age?”
“You think too much.” Yan Molun’s temples pulsed. Women had always labeled his age as the golden age but she actually despised him for being old? He was in a pretty good mood at first but now, it was practically ruined by her. “A man is more mature as he ages. Do you know that?”
Duoyao shook her head. She had yet to come out from the sadness of the age issue. “You’re so much older than me. You’re an old man who cheated a young girl in her prime. Did you not tell me your age on purpose?”
“You didn’t even ask.” Yan Molun sighed. “Are you regretting it now?”
Duoyao pouted her little mouth.
