Transmigrated To Another World: General, I'm Not Your White Moonlight - Chapter 230

Chapter 230: Sudden Confession (2)
Duan Yixin shook her head and said, “I recently suffered a head injury and lost most of my memory. I don’t know if I have ever traveled outside Yunshan Village in the past.”

Hearing this, Xuan Ruiquan remembered the report Jian Yi gave him and asked, “Have you seen a physician?”

Looking at his worried face, Duan Yixin felt warm in her heart. Seeing that she didn’t speak, Xuan Ruiquan’s heart sank, and he began to worry about her physical condition.

He thought for a moment and said, “Xin’er, a head injury is a serious injury. You can’t ignore it. You must seek treatment. How about I take you to see the imperial physician? With my status, I can invite the chief imperial physician to take a look at your condition.”

When Xuan Ruiquan began to plan to bring Kang Haifa to treat Duan Yixin, she looked at his tightly clenched hands. After a long silence, she reached out and held his hand.

The moment she held his hands, Xuan Ruiquan’s body stiffened, and his mind blanked. He watched her hands cover his hands in a daze and forgot everything he had just planned.

Seeing that Xuan Ruiquan’s whole body was stiff, Duan Yixin lowered her eyes and thought, ‘It seems that Xinru is wrong. Judging from his reaction, it seemed that he only regarded me as a friend and was uncomfortable when I held his hands.’

After thinking about it, Duan Yixin sighed and retracted her hands. Before he had time to think, Xuan Ruiquan felt her soft and warm hand let go of his. He instinctively reached out and held her hands. When his big hands grabbed hers, Duan Yixin looked at Xuan Ruiquan and tilted her head slightly in confusion.

She stared at him and thought, ‘When I held his hands, he stiffened. But now, when I let go, he held my hand again. What does he mean by this?’

Duan Yixin thought for a few seconds and then decided to test if what Chi Xinru said was right or wrong. She looked at Xuan Ruiquan, who was still in a daze, and asked, “General Xuan, do you have romantic feelings for me?”

Xuan Ruiquan’s face turned red as soon as her question came out. Seeing his face become as red as a boiled shrimp, Duan Yixin asked again, “What is your answer?”

Looking at her calm expression, Xuan Ruiquan was a little unsure for a moment about Duan Yixin’s feelings for him. But he knew that if he missed this opportunity, it would be more difficult for him to get close to Duan Yixin. After considering the pros and cons, he decided to confess his feelings to her. It’s just that the time, place, and atmosphere are all very lacking.

Lowering his eyes, Xuan Ruiquan thought seriously, ‘I must seize this opportunity first. After we become a couple, I can formally propose to her and make up for today’s shortcomings.’

Just as he was about to answer after making up his mind, the servant came over with the food and said, “Guest, these are your orders.”

Seeing the servant coming, Duan Yixin took her hands out of Xuan Ruiquan’s. Missing the opportunity to confess, Xuan Ruiquan glared at the servant.

Not sure why Xuan Ruiquan suddenly glared at him, the servant hesitated and asked, “Guest, do you want to add anything else?”

Xuan Ruiquan noticed that Duan Yixin was looking at him, so he looked away from the servant. He coughed lightly and said, “No. This is enough.”

After placing the food and tea on the table, the servant said, “Please enjoy the meal.”

Watching the servant leave in a hurry, Duan Yixin said, “You scared him.”

Xuan Ruiquan pouted slightly and muttered, “He should come later.”

Duan Yixin looked at his expression and couldn’t help but chuckle. When Xuan Ruiquan heard her chuckle, he felt even more aggrieved and refused to look at her.

Seeing his aggrieved look, Duan Yixin smiled and asked, “Then what is your answer to my question? You still haven’t given me an answer.”

Hearing this, Xuan Ruiquan looked at her in surprise. Unexpectedly, she continued their conversation after being interrupted by the servant. Seeing her looking at him gently, Xuan Ruiquan felt that he might really have a chance this time.

He clenched his sweaty palms and took a deep breath to slow down his rapidly beating heart. After a few seconds, he looked at her and said sincerely, “Xin’er, I not only like you, but I love you. You are the only woman I want to marry in my life and the only woman I will love in my life.”

After saying this, Xuan Ruiquan stared at Duan Yixin, waiting for her answer. Just when his heart was about to explode due to nervousness, fear, and expectation, Duan Yixin finally nodded and said, “I understand.”

Hearing her short answer, Xuan Ruiquan thought he had heard wrongly. He blinked a few times and asked, “Wha– what did you just say?”

Duan Yixin picked up the chopsticks and said with a smile, “I said, I understand.”

In a good mood, she picked up a piece of meat and put it in Xuan Ruiquan’s bowl. Seeing that he was still looking at her in shock, Duan Yixin gently urged him to eat quickly before the food got cold. Xuan Ruiquan absent-mindedly watched her calmly put down her chopsticks and start eating wonton soup.

Before he could clear his mind, Duan Yixin nodded and commented, “This wonton soup is indeed delicious.”

When Duan Yixin finished a bowl of wonton soup, Xuan Ruiquan was still sitting there in disbelief. Seeing his expression as if the world had ended, Duan Yixin put down the spoon in her hand and reminded him, “You should eat it before it gets cold.”

Hearing her gentle reminder, Xuan Ruiquan came back to his senses. He looked at the wonton soup in front of him, then at Duan Yixin. His hands clenched and unclenched several times under the table as a feeling of fear filled his heart, and his body became cold.
