Chapter 261 Risk it(1/2)
Cheng Yu looked at Li Xuanning's sudden brave expression, and his heart suddenly became clear.
Well, she had indeed known his thoughts about her for a long time, but she had been pretending to be confused.
Is her risk-taking expression at this moment good or bad for him?
There is an ominous premonition, but no matter good or bad, he behaved like this to her tonight, and she should confess some things.
The corners of his lips curled into a slight smile, and his eyes locked on hers.
"Xuan Ning, at the party that day, you asked me why I was so nice to you."
Speaking of this, Cheng Yu paused slightly.
Li Xuanning pursed her lips tightly. She didn't dare to look at Cheng Yu at the moment, her eyelids drooped, and she covered her emotions with her naturally thick long eyelashes.
She was shouting in her heart: Ah! Come on! You will have to face it eventually!
"I'll answer you now."
Cheng Yu's clear voice sounded again.
The little heart was pounding faster, and Li Xuanning seemed to be able to hear her own heartbeat.
She swallowed unconsciously, "Well, can't you finish it in one breath? This short pause was really heart-wrenching."
"Because I've fallen in love with you, Li Xuanning."
Cheng Yu finally blurted out this sentence completely.
The silence in this room stirred the heartstrings of two people.
In fact, I didn't fall in love with you, but I have always loved you. But I was worried that saying the word "love" to you at this time would be too heavy for you. So I changed my words to "like".
"You are so smart, you should have noticed a little bit of it a long time ago, right? In all my years of living, I, Cheng Yu, have never been as attentive to a girl as I am to you."
"Xuan Ning, please be my girlfriend."
Cheng Yu took the risk tonight and completely confessed his feelings.
Li Xuanning nodded slightly, her heart beating like thunder.
She originally thought that refusing was as simple as opening her mouth and saying no, just like how she decisively rejected Zhou Jianfeng.
However, at this moment, she discovered that this was not the case.
The words that were clearly on his lips were stuck.
Suddenly, she couldn't utter a word.
It was this moment of hesitation that made her feel even more uncomfortable.
What happened to her? She should have picked up the knife and dropped it.
In the many years since Xia Ming left, it was true that there were no outstanding suitors around her, but she had never been tempted. She felt that she would never fall in love with anyone else except Xia Ming.
But tonight when she faced Cheng Yu's confession, she actually hesitated when her rejection had already been prepared...
Suddenly, there was an indescribable heartache in my heart.
She...could it be...
Li Xuanning clenched her fists, raised her head with trembling lips.
"I'm sorry, Cheng Yu, I already have another man with whom I fell deeply in love engraved in my mind. I can't forget him. So..."
In the end, she gritted her teeth and said this.
He may have misunderstood that man as the scumbag Wu Wenze, or he may have misunderstood who he was. In short, he just had to find a way to stop him!
However, Li Xuanning's answer made Cheng Yu slightly startled.
The man engraved in his mind could not be Wu Wenze. He was very sure that the woman standing in front of him was his beloved Li Xuanning.
Then the man she mentioned engraved in her mind must be Xia Ming.
He understood her feeling, just like he could not clearly see the girl's face in his mind, but the feeling of being deeply in love was always engraved in his heart, always reminding himself that he had loved a girl deeply.
Can never forget it.
So, her memory is really waking up!
At this moment, Cheng Yu felt strange and mixed emotions well up in his heart.
There is joy, distress, expectation, and worry...
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind. I'm willing to accept your past and future."
Cheng Yu looked into her pupils and spoke seriously, word for word.
Li Xuanning's eyelashes trembled slightly, "But I mind."
I love him so much and don't want others to disturb my unique affection for him, so I don't mind.
However, Li Xuanning did not say this sentence.
Cheng Yu's heart felt like it had been pricked by a needle, with a dull pain. Thinking of the scene before his death, Li Xuanning's heart-rending cry was still imprinted in his memory.
She really loves Xia Ming and he feels honored for it.
But he was no longer Xia Ming at this time, and she didn't know that he was the one in her mind, so she was cruel to him.
Cheng Yu recalled the moment when his memory awakened because he saw clearly the memory scene before his death and Li Xuanning's face after brushing off the haze.
So what will be the exciting point when Li Xuanning's memory finally awakens?
He had no way of knowing, maybe he could only try little by little.
"Xuan Ning, people can't live in their memories, life should be looking forward." Cheng Yu spoke slowly.
Li Xuanning was slightly startled when she heard this, her nose was sore, and her eye circles suddenly turned slightly red.
People cannot live in memory...
However, when she thought of learning to let go of him and forget him, she felt very uncomfortable.
Therefore, she chose to live in her memory, which would at least make her suffer less.
"I will not invade your memory of him. You can still put him in the most important position in your heart. You just need to set aside a small space and try to accept me. Is that okay?"
Cheng Yu took half a step closer to her, his voice was low and gentle, beguiling people's hearts.
Li Xuanning's lip line was stretched straight, and the defense line in her heart seemed to be collapsing little by little.
"Cheng Yu." Li Xuanning looked up, with a confused expression on his face, "This is a bit humble. You are very good and there are obviously many better choices. Why is it me?"
He raised his lips and smiled, "Because you are unique, and I am not easily moved. I am attracted to you, so I have identified you."
Li Xuanning's heart trembled, and she subconsciously wanted to retreat, but there was a wall behind her and there was no way to retreat.
"Sorry, Cheng Yu."
She lowered her eyes, still sticking to her original decision.
Cheng Yu sighed softly in his heart, that's all, we can't force her like this.
"It's okay, no need to apologize."
He opened the distance between the two of them slightly.
Li Xuanning finally breathed a sigh of relief, but she felt faintly uncomfortable in her heart.
"Put your heart away and strangle all those who pursue you in the cradle. Is this the way you love him deeply?"
Cheng Yu suddenly spoke again at this moment.
Li Xuanning stiffened slightly and stared at the ground with her eyes open.
Cheng Yu looked at her silently for a while, then pursed his lips and smiled, with gentle eyes: "Xuan Ning, how about we play a game?"
Li Xuanning slowly raised her eyes, "Huh?"
"I will officially pursue you from today on. If you remain unmoved and I lose, then my two life-saving graces for you will be wiped out." Cheng Yu slightly raised his eyebrows and said with a half-smile.
"ah?"
Li Xuanning was completely stunned at this moment. What the hell, can you still play like this???
"Cheng Yu... Isn't this bad? How about something like this kind of life-saving grace can be repaid with something else? For example... money? Or... help with your career or something."
Li Xuanning blinked, her eyebrows arched.
Because of the sudden change of topic, the originally tense atmosphere in this room became a little more relaxed.
"It's vulgar to talk about money. I'm not short of money. As for my career... I'm already at this position, what else do I need for help?" Cheng Yu smiled.
Li Xuanning: "..."
"Or do you actually not have much love for the person in your heart? If your love for him is as unforgettable as you described, why don't you even dare to participate in a pursuit game? I feel like you don't have enough determination.
ah?"
Cheng Yu raised his eyebrows and said.
Hey, it's absolutely amazing... In order to get into her life and for her not to avoid him, he even dug his own base! I have to say, he is also a ruthless person!
To be continued...
