Chapter 385: Chapter 386 Have I Ever Told You How Beautiful You Are?

"Ayuan..." As she lifted her arm with her movement and let her pull down the shirt sleeve, he retracted his hand to caress her face, "Have I ever told you that you are beautiful?"

"I don’t need you to tell me that. I already know," she retorted smugly, yet her cheeks were still a bit warm. She couldn’t help but mock herself internally—here she was, a mother, yet her heart skipped at a mere compliment from a man. She was indeed living in the past.

The man paid no attention to her sarcasm, just continued to speak.

"Actually, back in the snow cave, I kept wanting to take off your goggles to see what your eyes looked like."

The two met while skiing on the Alps Mountains, and due to an avalanche, they moved from strangers to companions in adversity.

At the time, both were clad in skiing gear. During the day, as they searched for a way out, neither took off their ski goggles out of concern for snow blindness.

After dusk, they rested together in a snow cave, and she kept on his ski goggles without taking them off.

The large ski goggles covered most of her petite face, and along with the scarf, he actually never saw her real appearance.

His fingers gently traced her beautiful eyebrows as he gazed deeply into her eyes.

"Your eyes are very similar to my mother’s. I like eyes like these, as peaceful as the night sky," he said earnestly.

"You should be grateful you didn’t do that," Gan Yuan extended her hand to unbuckle his belt, "I had it very clear in my mind at the time—if you dared to make a move on me, I would castrate you."

Leaning over to her face, the man whispered close, "You wouldn’t."

"Are you so sure?" she asked softly.

Planting a light peck on her lips, Huangfu Jue spoke in a low voice, "Otherwise, you wouldn’t have invited me to dive in the Belize Great Blue Hole."

The next evening, they found a road and made their way back to safety. Rescuers who had been searching for them brought them back to camp, and as soon as she disembarked from the plane, she hurried away.

Before leaving, she said just one thing to him.

"Two weeks later, the Belize Great Blue Hole. Be there if you’re a man!"

The Belize Great Blue Hole is breathtaking, one of the most famed diving sites in the world, yet the stalagmite formations in the cave and the elusive sharks make divers hesitate to enter, making it much more dangerous than the Alps.

At that time, she had just come of age, full of youthful fervor and a desire for excitement. Her spur-of-the-moment invitation on parting had many reasons.

Out of unwillingness to accept defeat, she couldn’t bear the thought of losing to Huangfu Jue on such a skiing trail.

Another reason was her curiosity. She wanted to see if this man truly had the courage.

Of course, that wasn’t the only reason.

Although Gan Yuan didn’t realize it at the time, whenever she looked back on that moment, she finally understood.

She had actually fallen for him since that night in the snow cave, it was just her pride and innocence that prevented her from recognizing it.

Unexpectedly, he had seen right through her, causing Gan Yuan’s face to grow even redder.

Taking in her expression, the man spoke softly.

"It’s not that surprising. Many women fall for me at first sight."

She rolled her eyes at him.

"So what? Many men chase after me as well."

He chuckled softly.

Yes!

This was the proud, arrogant, and unyielding girl he remembered.

Gan Yuan raised an eyebrow, "You don’t believe me?"

"Of course, I believe you!" Huangfu Jue’s tone carried a hint of self-mockery, "At least I know one person who, in order to keep your date, had a press conference in Europe the day before and flew over half the Earth without sleep to dive in the Great Blue Hole, only to find that you stood him up."
