Chapter 809: Chapter 809: Signal Only for Her (1)

Facing the heartbroken expression of Zhang Te, Han Jingnian indifferently withdrew his gaze and focused on the document in his hands. As he stared at the densely packed words, he couldn’t help but look over his shoulder...

The seat where the girl had been was now empty, the table yet to be cleared by the waitress, with two crumpled tissues tossed carelessly on it, along with an untouched cup of coffee and a half-drunk glass of juice.

That was the juice the girl had just drunk...

Han Jingnian stared at the pink juice for a while, then slightly lifted his gaze to the straw inserted in the juice.

He stared at the straw for only a second before suddenly standing up, walking out of the private room, and heading straight for that glass of juice, from which he picked up the straw.

As he picked up the straw and closely observed the very tip of it, his fingertips involuntarily trembled.

Just then, a waitress came to clear the table. Seeing Han Jingnian’s actions, she gave him a strange look, and seeing that he was still staring intently at the straw, she spoke out, "Sir..."

Han Jingnian came to his senses, glanced at the waitress, and then, realizing his behavior was somewhat inappropriate, hid the straw in his pocket, nodded politely at the waitress, and returned to the private room.

Sitting back in his seat, Han Jingnian took the straw out of his pocket. He stared at the two tiny bite marks on the tip of the straw, his gaze gradually becoming more profound...

He was truly baffled as to why he would find the same feelings from someone completely different from Xia Wan’an... If it wasn’t the same person, why did he feel the signs of his heart stirring, the desire to get closer to her, and the uncontrollable excitement and anger when he saw her viewing inappropriate images and talking about men wearing only thin swimwear in the pool?

It should be noted that just earlier, driven by jealousy, he had behaved so out of character... just like that night on his birthday, when he and she were kidnapped, and later when Zhang Cheng and others came to their rescue, and she kept praising Zhang Cheng. He couldn’t hold back his fury and jealousy, directly grabbed her chin, and forcefully turned her head to face him, sealing her lips with his...

In this world, the only person who could make the usually rational him lose control was Xia Wan’an.

It should be noted that just a month ago, his grandmother, seeing him depressed and spiritless, had arranged for a girl who looked 80% similar to Xia Wan’an, and after makeup, could be said to look exactly like her. He looked at that dearly missed face, yet his heart remained still as water.

Only this girl named Xia Wanwan was an exception... Thus, he had always been working hard to find the same traces in Xia Wanwan, but to no avail.

Until now... he had finally found them...

Thinking of this, Han Jingnian’s fingertips fell on the chewed part of the straw.

Xia Wan’an liked to chew on straws. Many people in the world chew on straws, but Xia Wan’an was different; she liked to chew repeatedly on the same spot, using her small canine teeth, and she liked to chew hard, so her pointed little canine teeth would make two very tiny holes.

At this moment, the straw he was holding... was just like that...

Han Jingnian vividly felt his heart, which had begun to grow cold, become vividly alive once again.

(Explanation: Han Jingnian feels this way because she is Xia Wan’an, not that he suspects she is Xia Wan’an and then feels this way. Thus, for those who criticize the male lead as scum and worry about him recognizing the wrong person, your logic is inverted. If she weren’t the female lead, the male lead wouldn’t feel this way. If we have to argue about this, it’s like the chicken or the egg—we won’t reach a conclusion. No offense intended, just a simple explanation~)
