Rebirth: The Courtyard Bride Is Cool and Radiant novel Chapter 263

Chapter 263: Chapter 263: You Actually Arrived a Long Time Ago, Right?

As for why he did not have memories of his past two lives, it was not important to Yunyi. What mattered was that she had found him. Even if he never remembered the past, what did it matter as long as he liked her now?

Huo Jingrui was a bit puzzled. He did not understand why she became so emotional upon seeing the Jade Pendant, nor did he grasp why she instructed him so earnestly, "This Jade Pendant..."

Yunyi touched the Jade Pendant, then personally slipped it back into his shirt pocket. "Remember what I’ve said, never part with this Jade Pendant. When the time comes, you will understand."

Upon hearing Yunyi’s words, Huo Jingrui did not dwell on it any further and placed his hand over his shirt pocket. "Okay."

He himself did not know why. Despite having known each other for just a few days, he always felt he could trust her, that everything felt so natural.

The instant Yunyi looked up, Huo Jingrui was looking down, and their eyes met, full of tenderness and affection.

Huo Jingrui gazed at her soft, pink lips, unconsciously swallowing, his heartbeat quickening. He really wanted to lean down and kiss her. But they had only just confirmed their relationship, and it was not right to be rash with a lady. He struggled to contain the impulse within him.

Seeing him like this, Yunyi’s lips curled up teasingly. "Do you want to try a taste?"

Her words turned him, a grown man, red in the face. Yet if he backed down after the love of his life had spoken as such, wouldn’t he seem too cowardly?

Yunyi, watching the changes in his expression, was secretly delighted. This was the man she had chosen; what need was there for modesty? She tiptoed and planted a quick kiss on his lips.

Huo Jingrui’s mind was suddenly ablaze with fireworks. By the time he realized what was happening, he had already pulled back the retreating figure and kissed her deeply.

This kiss went from initial awkwardness to a familiarity as if they had done it a thousand times before.

Afterward, Huo Jingrui’s mind flooded with many past images. Although people now dismissed feudal superstitions, and he himself thought it somewhat absurd, he felt that he and Yunyi might truly have a bond that spanned past and present lives. Regardless, now that their relationship was confirmed, this little woman before him was the one he had to protect for a lifetime.

When they finally parted, breathless, Yunyi felt a touch of shyness. It was, after all, her first kiss in this life.

Yunyi was reluctant to let him go. But propriety dictated otherwise. She was new here, after all, and there were things to consider. "Okay, I can rest all of tomorrow, too."
