âYou still donât believe meâ¦â Qin Yao looked lonely.
âItâs not that I donât believe you, but that I understand your difficulties.â
Qin Yao looked at her and seemed to recall the past as he looked through her. âXiao Qiao, I find that I never knew you. You say that you still love me, but your eyes are not on me, nor do they have the slightest attachment to me. Even if Iâm gone one day, maybe it wonât affect youâ¦â
âClassmate, donât be so sensitive and sad, okay? Where are my eyes not on you?â Gong Xiaoqiao looked at him with wide eyes.
Qin Yao smiled bitterly, getting a little excited. âXiao Qiao, is it because that person knows you better than me and before me, so no matter how hard I try, I canât compare with him? Even if you were with me, it was under the circumstances that he had gone abroad.
A lot of times I think, you just think of me as a tool to make up for the emptiness created by his absence!â
Gong Xiaoqiaoâs face changed, and then she said gently, âFool, you donât have to compare with him! One is a lover, and one is a relative, you two have no comparability at all, okay? Are you agitated by what happened tonight? It was just a game, donât take it seriously!â
Qin Yao looked at the night sky and suddenly opened his mouth. âXiao Qiao, my wedding date with Xiao Rou has been fixed. The third of March.â
âReally, in March, when spring blossoms⦠Sounds good!â Gong Xiaoqiao said lightly, âCongratulations.â
Qin Yao looked at her and as if he had made up his mind, finally held her hand tightly. âXiao Qiao, if I ask you to come with me now, would you agree?â
âWith you?â Gong Xiaoqiao flashed with a glimmer of light, then her face showed a startled look.
âYes, Iâll take you out of here and go to a place where weâre the only ones.â Qin Yao pulled her, the palm of his hand sweating due to tension.
âThe only onesâ¦â Gong Xiaoqiao murmured, her eyes slightly converged, donât know what she was thinking.
Qin Yao waited in silence, watching her every reaction nervously.
After a while, the corners of Gong Xiaoqiao lips tugged up with a far fetched smile. âQin Yao, Iâm very satisfied that you can say such a thing to me.â
âYour meaning is, youâre unwilling?â Qin Yaoâs heart that had been raised suddenly fell to the bottom of the valley.
Gong Xiaoqiao looked up and stroked his cheek. Her eyes full of resentment. âItâs not that Iâm unwilling, itâs that I canât! Qin Yao, I love you, but I canât take you away so selfishlyâ¦â
He, at this moment, Qin Yaoâs words were largely because he had been stimulated tonight. Sheâd wait for him to calm down and then return to his senses. She naturally wouldnât be able to promise him at this time.
âXiao Qiao, sometimes, I wish you werenât so kind.â Qin Yao held her shoulders and closed his eyes, seeming to have been drained of all his strength and charm in an instant. Only god knows how long it had taken him to summon up his courage to ask her this anxiously.
He was still hesitant, but tonightâs kiss with Gu Xingshen, as well as the strong possessiveness of a man that he had seen in Gu Xingshenâs eyes, completely messed him up, and there was a feeling that if he hesitated again, he would lose her foreverâ¦
It hadnât been easy to get her back, so he cherished her carefully, as if she was a phantom, a bubble.
Gong Xiaoqiaoâs appearance was sad and contradictory. Holding on to his sleeve, she hesitated, then murmured, âQin Yao, give me some time to think about it?â
