298 Must You be with Him?
On the side, Li Qin Yao was quick to notice that a certain soone has been unhappy.
She followed his gaze and finally stood in front of him to block his view.
Zhang Yu Han sighed when he saw his wife.
“Zhang Yu Han, you are really cute.” Li Qin Yao could not help but stand on tiptoe and pinched her husband’s cheek. She glanced at where her daughter was sitting with Bai Qi and smiled. “I think Bai Qi is pretty good.”
The young man was staying by her daughter’s side quietly most of the ti. According to her observation, Bai Qi did not look as if he was eager to climb up the social status. In his eyes, there was only Zhang Li Xue. But when soone spoke to him, he would answer them politely. He had good manners.
Zhang Yu Han clicked his tongue. “They are too close.” His eyes narrowed as he saw how Bai Qi was rubbing his daughter’s legs.”
Li Qin Yao laughed. “Rember our date at the amusent park in L City? Back then, you also gave a leg massage.”
The man’s eyes turned deeper. Zhang Yu Han leaned over to his wife and whispered. “I don’t rember any of that.”
Li Qin Yao frowned at his words. It might happen a long ti ago, but how can he not rember that?
.....
However, Zhang Yu Han’s next words surprised her.
“I just rembered that it was at the amusent park that we had our first kiss.” His lips glinted mischievously. “Moreover, it was you who had initiated the kiss.”
Li Qin Yao’s face gradually turned redder. Thinking of how she was the one who had taken the initiative in the past made her embarrassed.
Zhang Yu Han was amused. No matter how long has it been, he still liked seeing the shy look on his wife’s face. With his wife in front of him, Zhang Yu Han had already forgotten about the scene he saw earlier.
...
Zhang Li Xue had drunk a little too much during this banquet. After eating a bit of food, she let Bai Qi wait for her at the table as she walked over to the restroom.
After washing her hand, Zhang Li Xue wiped her hands dry before heading outside. Thinking of that person who was waiting for her at the table made her smile.
“Xiao Li Xue.”
Just as she turned, Zhang Li Xue heard the familiar voice behind her. She turned around and was surprised to find Mu Zhen Yu leaning on the wall while looking at her.
Her lips turned into a smile. ” Brother Zhen Yu.” Her gaze swept around the area. “Are you waiting for ?”
“Un.” Mu Zhen Yu nodded. “Xiao Li Xue, can I talk to you for a mont?”
Zhang Li Xue recalled the surprised look in Mu Zhen Yu’s eyes when he saw her with Bai Qi earlier and hesitated. “Alright.”
Mu Zhen Yu was relieved. He turned around and led her to a quiet place.
Zhang Li Xue took out her phone and texted Bai Qi before she went out with Mu Zhen Yu.
The two of them arrived at a quiet corner in the lounge. However, they were not too far away from the hall.
From where she was standing, Zhang Li Xue could still see the people inside the ballroom. She retracted her gaze and looked at Mu Zhen Yu again. “Brother Zhen Yu, what is it?”
“Xiao Li Xue.” Mu Zhen Yu’s expression grew softer. “I like you.”
Zhang Li Xue was startled upon hearing his words. “Brother Zhen Yu...” There was a hint of helplessness in her tone.
She had already rejected his confession earlier. She was now in a relationship. It was uncomfortable to hear this confession again.
Mu Zhen Yu heaved a sigh. “Must you be with him?”
Zhang Li Xue looked at him in puzzlent. It took her a while to figure out the person that Mu Zhen Yu was ntioning. “Are you talking about Bai Qi?”
Mu Zhen Yu pursed his lips. “When we were in kindergarten, you were also very close to him. I thought that you would stay with after the Bai family moved to S Country. How did the two of you still get together?”
He also liked Zhang Li Xue from an early age. He had patiently accompanied her until she grew up. In the end, Zhang Li Xue was still with Bai Qi.
Zhang Li Xue did not know how to answer this question. After all, falling for Bai Qi was sothing that she had not planned. She could only say that eting Bai Qi again after years was fate.
“Xiao Li Xue, I have waited for a long ti to pursue you, Mu Zhen Yu continued. “Our family are close. I thought that in the end, we will eventually be together. In the past, didn’t your family often chase away the boys who wanted to get close to you? Why did they accept Bai Qi now?”
Zhang Li Xue stared at Mu Zhen Yu for a long ti. “Brother Zhen Yu, do you think that we will be together just because you are the only man who is close to ?”
Years ago, Zhang Li Xue might have had the sa thinking. But, she had grown up and things had changed.
“Brother Zhen Yu, I appreciate how you were always looking after from a very young age,” Zhang Li Xue continued. “But, you seed to have misunderstood my family’s intention. My dad and my brothers... It’s not that they were against befriending another boy.”
Mu Zhen Yu sneered. Clearly, he did not believe in her words. He had watched how Zhang Yi Hai and the triplets pulled a few tricks to stop the boys from approaching Zhang Li Xue.
“We have been friends for years. Brother Zhen Yu, you should understand my family the most,” Zhang Li Xue said. “I am the only female in my generation. In school, I am considered boyish because I liked to play basketball so much. It’s not that I don’t understand the boys’ intention when they suddenly showed their interest in . Was it wrong for my family to protect ? My family... They might be overprotective, but they are not unreasonable. Otherwise, do you think that we can stay as friends?”
A deep crease appeared between his brows.
“Brother Zhen Yu, you are a good friend. But this is only how I can think of you,” Zhang Li Xue said. “I have made it clear to you that I am now in a relationship and I don’t want to ss up with it. I hope that you can respect and my decision. The next ti we see each other, you can stop saying those words again. Otherwise, I don’t think that we can be friends any longer.”
His eyes widened in surprise.
Mu Zhen Yu watched as Zhang Li Xue left, but could not say another word to stop her from leaving.
