Ye Xiaomeng sensed He Mingâs burning gaze on her. She finally couldnât take it anymore and turned to look at him.
âWhatâs wrong? Why are you staring at me?â Ye Xiaomeng asked in confusion. Why was he staring at her when they were watching a movie?
âYouâre nicer to watch than the movie.â He Ming said with a smile.
Ye Xiaomengâs face flushed. Fortunately, the cinema was dim. Although she wasnât a shy person, she couldnât help but blush when she heard such words.
Ye Xiaomeng shifted in her seat and straightened her back. She was too embarrassed to look at him, so she looked at the screen and said, âWhat a smooth talker. Menâs sweet talk is nothing but sugar-coated bullets.â
He Ming didnât refute. Instead, he said earnestly, âThen let time prove it. I would gladly accept the test.â
After saying that, He Ming suddenly reached out and held her hand. Ye
Xiaomeng was startled. âWhatâs happening? You are scaring me.â
âXiaomeng, Iâm serious. Be my girlfriend. I swear on my life that Iâll protect you for the rest of your life.â He Ming put away his usually smiley face and said seriously.
Ye Xiaomeng felt a wave of heat wrap around her hand. His hand was indeed as slender and strong as she had imagined. She felt a sense of security when he held her hand.
Ye Xiaomeng let him hold her hand and said to him in a very serious tone, âIâm very serious and I expect fairness. If give 10% to someone, I expect to receive 10% from him. If youâre just fooling around, please give up as soon as possible. â
âXiaomeng, Iâm not fooling around. Iâll say it again, let time prove it but Iâll need you to open your heart and accept me slowly.â He Ming finally saw a glimmer of hope. He was finally not the only person in this relationship.
They no longer paid attention to what was playing on screen.
After the movie, He Ming sent Xiaomeng home. He giggled a few times on the way and Ye Xiaomeng couldnât help but call him a fool.
The next day, He Ming arrived at the office early to deal with work. Because of the positive response to his declaration of love to Ye Xiaomeng, he was in high spirits all day. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that he had good news.
Gu Shaoting tried to get information out of him for a long time but He Ming kept his mouth shut. He didnât want to hurt Gu Shaoting because there seemed to be no hope between him and Shu Pan.
He just moved his relationship forward with Ye Xiaomeng and wanted to spend
every moment with her. However, he had accepted Hu Shanshanâs invitation out of obligation, so he left the office after work in the afternoon.
It didnât seem nice to attend someoneâs birthday party empty-handed. As a boorish person, He Ming couldnât decide what to buy for Hu Shanshan.
After thinking for a long time, he finally decided to get her a bracelet. It was of classic design and expensive. He Ming even instructed the salesperson to gift wrap the bracelet.
As he was walking out of the jewelry shop, he saw a bracelet in the display window on the left, which looked simple and elegant.
He immediately thought of Ye Xiaomeng when he saw the bracelet. He called the salesperson over and asked her to wrap it up for him.
He Ming wondered if Xiaomeng would be happy when she received his gift. In any case, he would pluck stars out of the sky if she liked them.
Seeing that night was falling and the evening breeze was picking up, He Ming quickened his pace.
When he arrived at Shining Gold, he saw a long line of luxury cars at the entrance of the hotel.
As soon as he walked into the banquet hall, he saw that many of his customers were there..
