Chapter 120 Congratulations.
“You still don’t believe me…” Qin Yao looked lonely.
“It’s not that I don’t believe you, but that I understand your difficulties.”
Qin Yao looked at her and seemed to recall the past as he looked through her. “Xiao 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 I’m gone one day, maybe it won’t affect you…”
“Cla.s.smate, don’t be so sensitive and sad, okay? Where are my eyes not on you?” Gong Xiaoqiao looked at him with wide eyes.
Qin Yao smiled bitterly, getting a little excited. “Xiao Qiao, is it because that person knows you better than me and before me, so no matter how hard I try, I can’t compare with him? Even if you were with me, it was under the circ.u.mstances 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!”
Gong Xiaoqiao’s face changed, and then she said gently, “Fool, you don’t 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, don’t take it seriously!”
Qin Yao looked at the night sky and suddenly opened his mouth. “Xiao Qiao, my wedding date with Xiao Rou has been fixed. The third of March.”
“Really, in March, when spring blossoms… Sounds good!” Gong Xiaoqiao said lightly, “Congratulations.”
Qin Yao looked at her and as if he had made up his mind, finally held her hand tightly. “Xiao Qiao, if I ask you to come with me now, would you agree?”
“With you?” Gong Xiaoqiao flashed with a glimmer of light, then her face showed a startled look.
“Yes, I’ll take you out of here and go to a place where we’re the only ones.” Qin Yao pulled her, the palm of his hand sweating due to tension.
“The only ones…” Gong Xiaoqiao murmured, her eyes slightly converged, don’t 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. “Qin Yao, I’m very satisfied that you can say such a thing to me.”
“Your meaning is, you’re unwilling?” Qin Yao’s 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. “It’s not that I’m unwilling, it’s that I can’t! Qin Yao, I love you, but I can’t take you away so selfishly…”
He, at this moment, Qin Yao’s words were largely because he had been stimulated tonight. She’d wait for him to calm down and then return to his senses. She naturally wouldn’t be able to promise him at this time.
“Xiao Qiao, sometimes, I wish you weren’t so kind.” Qin Yao held her shoulders and closed his eyes, seeming to have been drained of all his strength and charm in an instant. Only G.o.d knows how long it had taken him to summon up his courage to ask her this anxiously.
He was still hesitant, but tonight’s kiss with Gu Xingshen, as well as the strong possessiveness of a man that he had seen in Gu Xingshen’s eyes, completely messed him up, and there was a feeling that if he hesitated again, he would lose her forever…
It hadn’t been easy to get her back, so he cherished her carefully, as if she was a phantom, a bubble.
Gong Xiaoqiao’s appearance was sad and contradictory. Holding on to his sleeve, she hesitated, then murmured, “Qin Yao, give me some time to think about it?”
