Until Longquan Town, Lin Jingchen did not let go of Bai Chen's hand.
Bai Chen was slightly uncomfortable at first, but then faced it calmly.
Maybe Lin Jingchen held his hand just because he was afraid that he would get lost in the crowd.
Although this reason is a little far-fetched, it is also the best reason. Bai Chen can't think of anything else at the moment, and doesn't dare to think about it.
Veiled Dance The venue was crowded with people.
The crowds were so crowded that Bai Chen and Lin Jingchen were unknowingly caught in the middle, making it difficult to get out.
The two of them were still holding hands, and there were a few people pushing and shoving between them.
Ben was holding Bai Chen's hand. Being pushed and crowded, he couldn't hold it. Bai Chen's slender fingers slowly slipped out of his palm.
Lin Jingchen felt inexplicably flustered and tried hard to hold it.
"Bai Chen--" he called uneasily.
Bai Chen on the opposite side heard his voice and looked over.
"Bai Chen give me your hand." Lin Jingchen shouted to him, feeling slightly nervous.
Seeing Bai Chen stretching out his hand, Lin Jingchen held it again, and his uneasy heart slowly calmed down.
Lin Jingchen held Bai Chen's hand and moved slowly against the flow of people.
Although the pace is slow and difficult, it is extremely determined.
He seems to have really fallen in love with Bai Chen. He doesn't know when this feeling left the seed in his heart and sprouted, but he knows that it can no longer be removed.
Because he will feel pain and be reluctant to let go.
This feeling came quietly and unexpectedly.
In the past, he hated unexpected things, but he didn't hate unexpected feelings at this time.
Lin Jingchen walked up to Bai Chen, let go of his hand, put his arm around his shoulders, tried his best to prevent others from touching Bai Chen, and walked out of the crowd.
After getting away from the crowd, the two people exhaled heavily at the same time.
Lin Jingchen glanced at Bai Chen, seeing his face flushed, feeling a little distressed.
"Are you okay? Are you feeling uncomfortable?" Lin Jingchen asked worriedly.
Bai Chen glanced at him, quickly looked away, and shook his head.
Bai Chen opened his mouth hesitantly and closed it again.
He had ten thousand reasons in his mind that he wanted to ask him.
Why hold his hand?
Why were you holding your shoulders just now?
Why is my heart beating so fast?
Why are you so nice to him?
He wanted to ask, but didn't have the courage.
He was not afraid that the reason he heard was not what he wanted to hear, but he was more afraid that Lin Jingchen's answer would make him unable to answer for a while.
Music was playing not far away and dancing started.
The noisy atmosphere spread over there, Lin Jingchen and Bai Chen were sitting on the bench nearby, and silence was rampant.
Lin Jingchen couldn't stand the atmosphere at this time, scratched his face, and didn't know what to say.
After thinking about it, I finally plucked up the courage to ask the question I wanted to know the answer to the most, "Bai Chen, don't you have anything to ask?"
After he finished speaking, there was another moment of silence.
Just when Lin Jingchen thought he would not get the answer, he saw the silent person beside him and replied vaguely, "No."
Lin Jingchen pursed his lips and looked at Bai Chen.
What catches the eye is Bai Chen's exquisite profile. His expression Lin Jingchen cannot be seen clearly from the side.
Lin Jingchen looked at it for a long time, Bai Chen seemed not to notice his sight, and kept looking at the dancing crowd not far away.
Lin Jingchen pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and took a deep breath.
"Bai Chen..." He called him softly.
After a long time, the people around him said "hmm" in a low voice and said no more.
"Bai Chen Aren't you curious why I just..."
Lin Jingchen was interrupted by Bai Chen before he finished speaking.
Bai Chen stood up, dazed, lowered his eyes and chuckled, "Mr. Lin, shall we go over to watch the dance?"
Lin Jingchen raised his head and looked at him for dozens of seconds. Bai Chen always had a smile in his eyes. Those eyes were clean and clear, without any impurities. Lin Jingchen couldn't say what he wanted to say for a while.
He had to admit that he flinched.
A businessman who usually would not flinch from projects worth hundreds of millions even if they were risky, and would invest without hesitation, was now holding back because of one person.
He is afraid of failure.
He was afraid that if he said something, he would not be able to take it back.
Once he says it, he will either fail or succeed.
But now he sees no hope. Bai Chen's attitude makes him dare not move forward and stop where he is.
He was afraid that Bai Chen would stay away from him if he got closer.
Lin Jingchen looked into Bai Chen's eyes, filled with a smile.
He had disguised himself in front of Bai Chen before, but now he still put on a smiling mask to prevent Bai Chen from noticing his strangeness.
How could Bai Chen not understand? It's just that he doesn't want to discuss this issue yet.
He is not from this world, and he has no way of promising him anything.
If he were asked to choose between his sister or Lin Jingchen, he would undoubtedly choose his sister and his world.
In comparison, what does a little ignorant emotion mean?
The other party just has a small affection for him now. He does not need to and cannot show any favor to the other party.
So he must not let the other party say that.
It can be regarded as giving them both a step up.
If he really said it, Bai Chen would have to use the most decisive way to reject the other party.
He doesn't want this, and he doesn't want to hurt the other person.
If it were someone else, he would directly say no.
But facing Lin Jingchen, he really couldn't do it.
He hoped that the relationship between the two of them could only be that of friends or junior students.
He wishes he could understand.
