Chapter 698: Chapter 698 He’s Really Crazy!
This extrely conflicted psychological state made him avoid any news related to the Su Family as much as possible.
Especially news related to Xiao’ai.
A few days ago, the group captain even ntioned that Xiao’ai had asked him why Uncle Ji Dong hadn’t co to see her recently.
He didn’t dare to go.
He was afraid that if he went, he would overthink things.
It was better not to see her; knowing that the little girl was safe and sound each day was enough.
At tis, his mind would beco dizzy with thoughts, and he would let this unusual emotion gradually dissipate.
As several days passed, he thought he had dispersed these unusual feelings, but when faced with soone else’s kindness, the reaction that was too quick to even consider, like a loud slap, woke him from his self-deceptive dream.
He then realized that the more suppressed feelings were, the deeper they etched themselves into the depths of his heart.
He hadn’t forgotten, nor had he stopped caring.
On the contrary, he cared too much, which made him always think that he had forgotten.
Rarely was Ji Dong caught in such prolonged distress.
Even on the most dangerous battlefields, he would make decisions after just a few minutes of thought.
Yet the small thought of “should I go see that little girl” made him feel like a trapped beast, with no right move to make.
This special emotion, he couldn’t talk about it with anyone.
Even facing the group captain now made him feel short of breath.
How to answer the group captain’s questions?
Could he say that he didn’t visit the house because he had special feelings for the group captain’s little niece?
He couldn’t say; this unacknowledged affection that had grown had to be digested and borne by him alone.
If it wasn’t necessary, he wouldn’t even go to the headquarters now.
The people around him, whether leaders or comrades-in-arms, all thought he was just tired from the arduous tasks of the past few months and the close call with death he had experienced once.
They unanimously gave him ti to recuperate.
If the circumstances weren’t special now, with hardly any leave left, he probably wouldn’t remain in the army either.
Sotis, Ji Dong himself was also confused.
This special affection, when exactly did it start?
There was even a ti when he suspected he was ill.
He was so frightened that he wouldn’t only avoid going to the group captain’s house, but he would also flee at top speed at the re sight of his sister-in-law bringing Su Shu to the army headquarters.
Even seeing Xiao’ai happily waving at him from a distance, and ultimately that disappointed little face lingering in his mind, was unbearable.
For the first ti in his life, Ji Dong experienced what it ant to be powerless.
Occasionally, when he felt depressed, he would think that even if Xiao’ai were as old as Bai Qinghuan, he probably wouldn’t avoid her as desperately as he did now.
He was afraid of doing sothing wrong that might frighten the little girl, even more afraid of frightening himself.
Really, even if Xiao’ai were only fifteen or sixteen, perhaps he would dare to take a step forward and truly express his affection.
But now…
She was so young…
He truly was crazy, why couldn’t he forget a simple phrase from a child?!
Even at night, in the deep silence when no one was around, he actually imagined what Xiao’ai would look like when she grew up.
Ji Dong, you really are crazy!
Fox sat beside him, watching Ji Dong’s face turn white, then black, then red, and then deathly still as if there were no tomorrow.
It really was very strange.
