I Became the Little Demon in Leading Role's Family-Chapter 313 - 323: Was it You Who Saved Me Back Then?

Ye Xiu finished speaking, then hesitated, watching Nan Jin’s serious face as he thought deeply. Finally, she slowly began to speak.

"Nan Jin, I never asked you whether it was you who rescued me back then, during those three days when I fell into the trap? The three days when my eyes were injured?"

Ye Xiu’s question shocked Nan Jin. So many years had passed; did it still matter?

Back then, he had also thought about asking.

Ah Xiu, didn’t you say that once you got out, you would seriously consider our relationship?

Why, when I came back, were you already with Bai Da?

Yet, seeing her so happy, so joyously stating that she was getting married, he swallowed all his words.

The day they got married, he actually went back.

He watched her dressed in bright pink, so beautiful.

She stood in the courtyard, under everyone’s gaze, getting together with Bai Da.

He watched them toast each other, watched her smile radiantly, but not because of him.

Nan Jin’s lips curled into a bitter smile, even though so many years had truly passed. That’s why he never dared to return. Because he couldn’t face it.

"Is this very important to you?"

Perhaps Ah Xiu misunderstood, thinking Bai Da was the one who had rescued her.

Yet, after her injuries healed, it was Bai Da she grew to love.

Bai Da didn’t hide anything, he told him everything.

Back then, during that training session, he couldn’t go. Going might have caused trouble, so he asked Bai Da to switch with him temporarily.

He really couldn’t let anyone know.

So later on, it was natural for Ah Xiu to mistake the person. Bai Da even told him that Ah Xiu seemed to have misunderstood.

He wanted to explain, but then he suddenly had to leave, and there simply wasn’t time.

By the time he returned, they were already together.

Ah Xiu was very happy, her smile sweet.

Her eyes full of tenderness as she looked at Bai Da, so blissfully happy.

All explanations stuck in his throat.

He had also felt unreconciled, but they had gotten married.

"Very important."

Ye Xiu looked earnestly at Nan Jin; of course it was important.

Because this involved the truth about how her relationship with Bai Da started initially.

Of course, her feelings toward Nan Jin were now quite calm; they were all adults, and youthful infatuations were normal.

She just wanted to clarify when exactly she had been hypnotized.

Of course, this might bring up some unpleasant memories for Nan Jin.

"Is it inconvenient to talk about? If it’s inconvenient, you don’t have to say."

Ye Xiu saw Nan Jin hesitate and then remembered that he wasn’t obliged to cooperate.

After all, it seemed to relate to issues of his pride.

"No, no." Whatever you want to know, I will tell you.

"Yes, those three days were according to what I meant, and I took care of you because there was a personal reason I couldn’t let others know. After getting out, I wanted to tell you, but then I had to go home because of some urgent matter.

But don’t blame Bai Da; he later told me that you might have misunderstood. By the time I knew, you two were married, and seeing how happy you were, I thought you must really like him, and the past issues didn’t seem that important anymore."

Nan Jin tried to make his smile appear normal, at least not to let Ye Xiu feel his loss.

Actually, how could it not be important? That was the happiest time in his life.

The three days they spent together in that small trap were actually the happiest days for him.

Even though they were in a rough situation, he came to see a different side of her.

Ah Xiu could be vulnerable, she might want someone to depend on, want warmth.

He thought that once he got out, surely they would be together, but he hadn’t anticipated...
