Chapter 86
Having repeatedly lived and struggled on the edge of life and death, Ye Chen was transformed from a child to a hardened and quick to adapt teenager .
Since then, he would repay what others had done to him tenfold . Whatever he had to endure, he would endure and take in all the pain silently .
In the eyes of others, those who were as strong as Ye Chen were almost omnipotent . Who would have thought of standing up for him?
Only Cheng Anya!
This woman who barely knew him stood up for him in such a strong and fearless way . She spoke up for him and protected him .
Anya had broken the deep cold in his heart .
Cheng Anya was shocked . Her heart was painful as though it was in shackles .
Her lips and the tip of her nose soured, and her eyes were red .
Unlike before, Ye Chen seemed like a wronged person seeking comfort .
However, as tough as Ye Chen was, he also had a fragile side .
Her hand clenched into a fist, then loosened, and clenched, and finally released . Her emotions overcame reason .
Anya hugged Ye Chen!
Just this once, Cheng Anya . Just this once!
She followed her heart and took pity on him .
Ye Chen, shocked, suddenly hugged Anya tighter . He almost wanted to hug her to death .
As the sun shone through the room, there was a faint hint of sadness in the air .
For a long while, Ye Chen hugged her . There was a layer of complexity in his deep gaze, and it seemed like joy yet sorrowful . Cheng Anya could not understand what she saw, or rather, she did not want to pursue the question .
Third Young Master Ye’s gaze was intriguing, as if a second glance would send her into a trance . However frightening, unclear, and vague it seemed, she did not back off, yet felt afraid .
“I’ll make a move first!” Cheng Anya heard her very calm voice . There was a normalcy to it which was not tempestuous at all . Such a warm embrace from Ye Chen seemed to be an illusion stemming from Ye Chen’s fatigue .
As Anya turned around, she felt someone tug her arms and had to turn around .
Ye Chen’s lips formed a smile, and as he looked at Anya with a gaze akin to still water, he asked, “Do you like me?”
With a loud thud, Cheng Anya heard something in her mind rupture, and her cheeks flushed . As she felt awkward and tried to resist, Anya was tempted to hide in a hole had there been one .
Did she like Ye Chen?
How could it be…
Had she been too late in avoiding him?
