1745: He Suddenly Got Closer

He Suddenly Got Closer

"Alright," Hexin replied. She stood to the side and focused on watching them play badminton.0

Her eyes were wide open as she looked curiously at the shuttlecock made out of feathers being hit to and fro between them. It looked like a lot of fun and she could not wait to try it.

All of a sudden, Lu Xue started not feeling well. She became quite breathless after playing for a while and did not want to continue any longer.

"You should play with Xinxin, Cousin Long Yin." She gave a few coughs as she bent over and waved at Long Yin.

The look on Long Yin's face changed and he flung the badminton racket to the side. He hurried toward her and reached out to hold her by the arms. "Let me help you to the side to sit."

"I'm fine. It's the same old illness. I'm just a little breathless because of the sudden exercise. I'll be alright after resting for a while. Go on and accompany Hexin to play the game." Lu Xue pushed his hand away and walked straight toward the chair at the side to sit down.

Hexin came over and said with concern, "Are you alright, Big Sis Xue'er?"

"I'm fine." Lu Xue gave her a smile. "Go ahead and play. Cousin Long Yin will accompany you. He has too much energy. A frail body like mine won't be able to play the game for long with him and he won't enjoy the game."

Hexin looked at Long Yin, who stood at the side but did not come forward. There was a dark look on his face. He must be worried about Lu Xue's health. She hesitated before saying, "I think I better not play. It looks like Big Bro Long Yin is very worried about you."

Lu Xue did not take it to heart. "Cousin Long Yin is just making a mountain out of an anthill. It's not the first time that I'm experiencing this. It's an old ailment that constantly happens to me." However, she still turned to look in the direction of Cousin Long Yin and when she saw him standing silently where he was, she thought he looked a little unhappy and found herself a little scared of him. She gave Hexin's hand a push and said in a low voice, "It's pretty scary to see Cousin Long Yin staring at me like that. Hurry up and take him away to play badminton."

Hexin did not know whether to laugh or cry when she heard this. Was Big Bro Long Yin that scary? To be fair, he did look a little frightening when he looked grim and stayed silent.

"Alright. I'll ask if he wants to continue playing." Hexin had no choice but to agree to Lu Xue's request when she saw how uncomfortable Lu Xue was.

"Go on, hurry up." Lu Xue urged her as she passed her racket to Hexin.

Hexin had no choice but to take the racket from Lu Xue.

"How about playing a game with me, Big Bro Long Yin?" She walked toward Long Yin and asked politely.

Long Yin was no longer in the mood, but Lu Xue had already sat down and it was clear that she did not want him to accompany her, which was why he did not come forward.

When did Xue'er start to pull away from him every time he got close?

"Alright." He glanced at Lu Xue and turned away, looking at Hexin instead.

"Let's start," Hexin said graciously.

She had just seen him playing with Lu Xue and had an idea of how to use the racket in the game.

Hexin stood where Lu Xue had been and put on a stance to begin playing with Long Yin.

She had learned archery since young, which was why she quickly took to a game like badminton.

Just as she was getting into the game, Long Yin suddenly gestured for them to pause the game.

Hexin had no choice but to stop and she gave him a questioning look.

However, she saw him suddenly walking toward her.

"Hexin, the way you're holding the racket is not correct." Long Yin suddenly went behind her and moved her hand to the correct position.

The unfamiliar scent of the young man suddenly filled her nostrils and Hexin's body stiffened.

"You should hold it this way…" Long Yin said patiently.

The young man's voice was right next to her ear and Hexin's heart thumped wildly in that instant.

She did not really hear what he had just said, but replied blankly, "Alright."
