Chapter 2090: No One Who Comes Can s.n.a.t.c.h You Away

Serves him right that he did not manage to woo s.h.i.+ Xiaoya!

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya seemed to have thought of something as she sputtered out laughing.

Han Zhuoling came back from his thoughts and asked, “What are you laughing at?”

“I’m laughing at how childish we are.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya laughed as she said, “These things all happened so long ago, and they didn’t really have any outcome, but we just keep asking each other non-stop. Even if we asked, can people from the past even come and s.n.a.t.c.h you away?”

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya just felt that they would really have been too bored with life to do that.

Yes, she felt really regretful that they missed the peak of each other’s youth.

They wanted to have been a part of every stage of each other’s lives.

But their age gap determined that it would have been impossible for the two of them to grow up together.

And when they were young, she would not have met him either.

She did feel a little jealous that those female cla.s.smates of his could send him love letters and even saw how he looked like before when he was in school.

She thought that his reservedness and maturity now were as if every pore of him radiated such charm.

But in his schooling days, she did not know how it felt like.

At that time, he would have been younger and more inexperienced. He’d have been younger and more tender than now, so she wondered if he would have had the kind of aura he had now.

At this moment, she heard Han Zhuoling chuckle as he said, “That won’t happen. No one can s.n.a.t.c.h you away.”

Han Zhuoling hugged her around her waist and pulled her into his arms.

He was sitting up with his back resting against the soft and fluffy pillow.

He let s.h.i.+ Xiaoya lie in his arms. Lowering his eyes slightly, he would be able to see her face.

This position was comfortable and convenient.

“I just feel very thankful and fortunate that you’re such a dimwit when it comes to relations.h.i.+p matters.” Han Zhuoling chuckled.

As she lay like this and lightly tilted her head up to look at him, her long, soft hair spread across her back.

Because of her movements from tilting her head up, her long hair also appeared a little longer, almost reaching her waist.

As long as Han Zhuoling slightly curled his fingers with his hand that was around her waist, he would be able to touch her long hair.

His fingertips gently ran through the locks of her hair. When he felt that that was not satisfying enough, he then moved up a little and twirled his finger to wrap a lock of hair around his finger.

“That was why you did not have a boyfriend. You are clearly so popular, yet you don’t know it yourself.” Han Zhuoling felt it was cute as he thought about it and laughed. “That’s why I got the advantage now.”

If she was not such a dimwit in relations.h.i.+p matters, how could she have remained single all along before she met him?

“I really want to see how you looked like in the past,” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya said sentimentally in his embrace.

“At that time, we were both still studying in Jixia Academy,” Han Zhuoling said.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya looked up suddenly. “Then… then when I was in primary school, you must have been in senior high…”

Han Zhuoling thought about that scenario and realized that it was impossible to imagine.

Because at his age then, he already knew about love between men and women.

Although he was not interested and did not accept any girl’s pursuit of him before…

The cla.s.smates around him, be it boys or girls, many of them had actually tasted the “forbidden fruit” at that time.

They were all young men and women who understood the love between a man and a woman.

But the s.h.i.+ Xiaoya at that time was still a young little schoolgirl…

Han Zhuoling thought about it. He already looked a bit like a grown man back then, but he would have been facing a little tiny s.h.i.+ Xiaoya.

This scenario would be difficult to look straight at no matter what.

Especially when she was his girlfriend now.

s.h.i.+ Xiaoya also thought of this scene and sputtered out laughing.

“Luckily, we never met each other before then.” s.h.i.+ Xiaoya laughed heartily.

Han Zhuoling could only laugh.

She was still so young then. He was a senior high student. Why would he have noticed a small, tiny student from the primary school side?
