Chapter 1209: 1209 Heather of the Other Shore Flower (233)
She always thought that by wearing fake scars, she could ward off so unnecessary attention, including from Nian Shen.
She thought he might have realized they were fake, but then again, even before he knew, from day one, he never showed any intention of distancing himself from her.
That is to say, Nian Shen never seed to care about the scars on her face at all; he was different from others.
Actually, Heather just asked casually today, thinking Nian Shen would deny it, feel sowhat embarrassed, and then let her go. But she was wrong; his answer left her even more at a loss.
He said, "Yes."
"..." Heather couldn’t find any words in response. She looked up at him, stunned for a few seconds.
Nian Shen continued, "Did you finally realize?"
"..."
No... She wasn’t sure at all! She just wanted to make him awkward!
Who knew!
"Mr. Nian, this joke... isn’t it a bit out of place?"
"Why is it out of place?"
"Aren’t you still with Qu Leqi?"
"What if we’re not anymore?" he interrupted her.
Split Up?
"No, no, no!" Heather tried to push him, but he was like a mountain, unmovable!! "Mr. Nian, think carefully about your relationship, even if you split, don’t do it because of ! I can’t bear that responsibility! If Miss Qu blas it all on , you’re free, but I’d be in big trouble!"
"She wouldn’t."
"She would!" Heather said confidently, "Now she sees
like a rival and targets
every day! If you split with her and be with , she might even throw acid at !"
Of course, whether she’ll succeed is another matter, but Qu Leqi would probably have such a radical thought, and Heather just didn’t want the trouble.
"She won’t have that chance."
Qu Leqi’s path was blocked, so Heather had to take another approach: "Sorry Mr. Nian, I don’t want to discuss personal feelings right now. If you continue like this, I will consider resigning from being your bodyguard."
"Why? Because you don’t like ?"
"Yes, because I don’t like you!" Heather looked into his eyes, very earnestly told him, "I really, really can’t like you!"
"Because of your Ah Nian?"
"Yes!"
"Didn’t you say I resemble him? Since you can’t be with him, why not be with ? I also know your life isn’t long. You don’t like , so you won’t be worried about
being devastated by your leaving. After all, I’m not him, yet I can make you feel like I am him. Isn’t soone like
a good fit for you right now?"
Heather was stunned.
He...
understands it all!
The things she said before, the anings she tried to convey, he had taken to heart and understood.
And now, she understood what he was saying too.
Because she didn’t like him, she wouldn’t care about his feelings, so regardless of what happens in the end, she wouldn’t have any regrets for him. But at the sa ti, she would have soone close to accompany her through this part of her life journey.
In other words, he was willing to be "his" substitute and had no complaints.
From an emotional standpoint, it was plausible.
But from a rational perspective, she couldn’t convince herself.
She tried to observe Nian Shen’s expression, but in the end, she found...
He seed to be telling the truth.
