63: The top hunters often appear in the form of prey!

A wave of inexplicable sadness welled up in Pan Sixuan's heart.

Jiang Feng was still young, only five years older than her daughter, while she was already over thirty; her youth was gone, how could she be worthy of Jiang Feng?

Pan Sixuan sighed softly, her fingers unconsciously stroking her cheek; the delicate touch couldn't conceal the marks left by time.

If she were ten years younger, how wonderful that would be; even if there were many competitors, she would definitely devote everything to pursuing Jiang Feng.

But reality was so cruel; now she was thirty-one, wouldn't being with Jiang Feng hold him back?

Even if she were with Jiang Feng now, in less than ten years, she would be forty, old and faded.

What would she do then?

She didn't want to see Jiang Feng miss out on a better future because of her.

However, if they were just friends who had deep exchanges, perhaps...

Thinking of this, her brows furrowed tightly, her heart filled with struggle and helplessness.

Jiang Feng looked serious, his eyes filled with earnestness, and he said,

"Sixuan Jie, it's wrong for you to think that way! While your child is important, you can't sacrifice your entire life! You only live once, don't you want to live for yourself for once?"

"Living for yourself is something no one can criticize!"

Pan Sixuan's eyes were dazed as she stared blankly at Jiang Feng, not knowing what he meant.

She opened her mouth but didn't know what to say.

Seeing this, Jiang Feng placed his hands on Pan Sixuan's shoulders, pulling them closer, and continued to persuade her patiently:

"Sixuan Jie, you're still young; you're at the most beautiful age for a woman right now. You can't put everything on your child. I believe she also hopes her mother can find true happiness. Think about it, if you keep suppressing yourself like this, your child will feel bad too."

His voice was gentle and sincere.

Upon hearing this, Pan Sixuan was stunned. She looked up, staring blankly at Jiang Feng, her heart wavering slightly.

She felt as if her long-lonely heart had been gently stirred by an invisible hand, creating ripples.

She bit her lip, her tone somewhat low:

"Stinky little brother, don't tease me. I'm thirty-one this year, how can I still be young? Compared to your classmates, I'm old and faded. They are the ones with endless youth, they are the partners suitable for you."

After speaking, she lowered her head, feeling a little inferior.

Over the years, she had maintained a certain amount of exercise almost every day; besides work reasons, she wanted even more to grasp her fleeting youth.

But occasionally seeing female college students exercising at the gym, with their vibrant figures, she realized that she was truly old. Although her skin was better than theirs, how many years could that last?

Time spares no one!

She sighed helplessly, her heart full of emotion.

Jiang Feng shook his head, the seriousness on his face deepening.

He reached out and gently cupped Pan Sixuan's lowered face, looking at her intently.

"Sixuan Jie, I'm not joking. If you didn't say you were thirty-one, I'd think you were twenty-one. Look at your skin, it's even firmer than my classmates'! You don't look like someone in her thirties at all."

Pan Sixuan was stunned. Cupping her face... wasn't that an action only intimate couples could do?

Her face instantly turned crimson to her earlobes, like a ripe apple.

And now, Jiang Feng's handsome face was very close to hers; she could even smell his hot breath and feel the warmth of his palms.

For a moment, she was dazed and speechless, her heart thumping like a little rabbit:

Stinky little brother, why are you suddenly so bold? What should I do...

After a long while, she finally managed to regain her senses, her pretty face flushing even redder with a 'whoosh'. She shyly took a step back and stammered:

"Wh-where..."

She still didn't quite believe it, thinking Jiang Feng was just praising her to save her face.

She thought for a moment and continued:

"Stinky little brother, you're just sweet-talking. There must be many girls in your class who like you, and your admirers must be lined up to the school gate, right? Don't make fun of me."

Jiang Feng was torn between laughter and tears; those girls in his class not only didn't pursue him but actually looked down on him.

After all, at this time, he wasn't the scumbag he was in his previous life, but the notorious 'lickspittle' of the entire school...

Jiang Feng shook his head:

"Sixuan Jie, everything I said is true. Those girls in my class are all like little yellow-haired girls; I don't feel anything for them at all. On the contrary, just now, when I was helping Sixuan Jie with squats, I..."

He stopped abruptly here, a hint of an awkward smile on his face.

"Alright..."

Pan Sixuan's pretty face was flushed, and she gave Jiang Feng a charming glare, feeling both shy and delighted.

"Don't say such embarrassing things!"

Although she said that, her heart was overjoyed; at least Stinky little brother had feelings for her!

Jiang Feng quickly said,

"Everything I said is true, from the bottom of my heart!"

"You're still talking!"

Pan Sixuan chided playfully, but her slightly upturned lips had already betrayed her; her heart felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.

"Hurry up and continue with the squats!"

She deliberately changed the subject, wanting to ease the awkward and ambiguous atmosphere.

"Alright..."

The two continued to practice in front of the squat rack, their bodies occasionally coming into contact, and an ambiguous aura permeated the air.

Pan Sixuan wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Alright, let's stop here for today."

Her hair was a little messy, clinging to her cheeks, yet it had a unique charm.

Jiang Feng nodded and said,

"Okay, Sixuan Jie, thank you for today."

Pan Sixuan smiled and said,

"You're welcome, Stinky little brother. You can always ask me if you don't understand anything in the future."

Her smile was like the sunshine in spring, warm and captivating.

The two packed up their things and walked out of the gym.

By this time, the sky had gradually darkened, and the streetlights came on, casting a dim yellow light.

The halo of light enveloped them, as if draping them in a dreamy veil.

Pan Sixuan looked at the dim yellow light, and an inexplicable impulse suddenly surged in her heart.

Was it going to end like this today?

What if they couldn't be lovers?

Rather than missing out on such a good person like Jiang Feng, she would rather be good friends with Jiang Feng who had deep exchanges!

Pan Sixuan finally made up her mind; her eyes became firm, and she silently cheered herself on.

"Sixuan Jie, I'm leaving now."

After waving goodbye, Jiang Feng walked to his motorcycle. He patted the seat, ready to ride home.

He was not flustered at all; years of experience told him that Pan Sixuan would not be able to resist calling out to him within three counts.

The most skilled hunters often appear in the form of prey!

He counted down in his heart:

Three!

Two!

One!

"Stinky little brother, wait a moment..."
