Chapter 180: Weixi’s Confession (Everything falls into place...)
“Co with .”
Li Shaoling took her hand, and they slowly entered the elevator as everyone else watched.
The applause had yet to cease when the elevator doors slowly closed.
Ji Weixi’s small hand was tightly wrapped within Li Shaoling large, firm palm, and she could clearly feel his warmth.
He was looking at her, his gaze hot and direct which left her uncomfortably embarrassed.
Why did she feel like they were eloping?
anwhile, Li Shaoling had led him to the roof. The night winds were rather strong, and were wildly toying with Ji Weixi’s jet-black hair.
He took off his jacket and covered her when he saw her hunching and shuddering.
Taking her by her hand and heading to the edge of the roof, he led Ji Weixi to the scaffolding which overlooks the entire night view of River Town.
She suddenly realized that so lights were off and so were on in an irregular arrangent.
As she scanned it, she was stunned to find that the streetlights which were just starting to brighten had a formation that read ‘Ji Weixi’.
Ji Weixi turned in surprise to Li Shaoling, who grinned at her and turned away.
Following his gaze, she then realized all of the massive LED displays on the comrce avenues were all showing photographs of her sleeping, eating, pondering and even smiling.
“W-where did you get those photos?” Ji Weixi was left in disbelief.
She had never seen those images.
“I took them secretly.” Li Shaoling said, lifting a brow.
“...When?”
“Not telling.”
He’s actually playing a tsundere now.
Hugging her from behind, Li Shaoling rested his chin lightly on her shoulder. “Look.”
Bang—
Dazzling fireworks ignited as the winds beca even stronger, blowing at her hair as her bright small face was illuminated.
She blankly stared ahead, gently stretching her hand out as if she could touch the fireworks.
“I love you, Ji Weixi.” Li Shaoling’s words were so soft it was as if the winds could take it away, but it pierced the very depths of her heart.
He had said it so many tis that Ji Weixi thought that she was already bored, but this ti was much more moving than every other occasion before.
It sounded so nice she wanted to record it.
Nonetheless, even as her cheeks felt icy, Ji Weixi kept staring at the lights that displayed her na, going out one mont and changing color in another.
She wasn’t sure if she should laugh or cry. “You’re so rich, Li Shaoling.”
The typical style of those who stumbled into fortune.
“Do you like it, then?”
His rich, charming voice spoke softly beside her ears.
She lowered her gaze, staring at her own toes as she replied vaguely. “Yes, I do...”
Li Shaoling turned her around and gave her a aningful look. “Then what about ?”
And what about him?
Although he only prepared the proposal in a single afternoon, he inford everyone else that he turned down the agreent signing event with several other bosses of other companies so that she won’t be disappointed.
For her, she has to face her own heart since she had agreed to marry him.
And today, he would get down to bottom of it.
Ji Weixi looked into his bottomless gaze and pressed her hand over her wildly beating heart.
“Li Shaoling, I...” She said hesitatingly.
She would admit that she had kept hiding and evading Li Shaoling’s feelings, afraid of facing it.
But being able to hide one ti doesn’t an she could hide for the rest of her life. Likewise, fooling everyone didn’t an that she would fool herself.
Hence, she spread her arms and held him, thinking that such a sensation would make things clearer.
She gently closed her eyes. “I found you vile the first ti I t you, even disdainful of . I thought that you were hard to get along with, egoistic and delusional!”
“But then... I realized you have a strong sense of responsibility. You called off your marriage with Ji Jianing right after you learnt that we had a child, even enduring everyone’s cursing. Even so, I thought that you chose because of the child, and not because of .”
“You were salvation when you ca to save . You knew that they were just joking, but you didn’t hesitate to stab your own palm. Right then... I really thought you loved , and I found my value in soone else’s heart.”
“I dislike you talking to other won or smiling at them. I wanted nothing else than to leave you when I imagined that you had other won before four years ago, feeling upset and a little hurt...”
“However, I find life aningless without you...”
Ji Weixi freed him, looking up at him tearfully as she asked carefully. “Is this liking?”
Li Shaoling stared at her for a long ti quietly before suddenly smiling. “You do like .”
“Okay.” Ji Weixi’s ice-cold tears stread out. “I like you...”
Li Shaoling felt helpless. “What are you crying for?”
Why was she so grieving so much? It was as if he forced her to admit it.
Sniffling, Ji Weixi asked. “Then what is love?”
Even as Li Shaoling wiped away every drop of her tears, there was an amorous look in his eyes. “Love is wanting to bed a person the first mont you et her.”
“...”
Lifting a brow, Li Shaoling continued, “Like, bedding her without taking a single break until you die.”
“...”
The grief that was showing over her little face from the start turned into indignation as she shot him an angry glare. “Goodbye!!”
She started struggling as Li Shaoling pulled her, and he arched his back to drown all her complaints.
Her struggling turned to compromise too.
It was after a long ti that he freed her, his lips glinting in redness as he smiled tenderly. “Loving you is like loving my very own existence. That’s love.”
Ji Weixi imdiately started bawling, leaving Li Shaoling frightened. “Why are you crying again?”
“What should I do? I don’t think I love you.” Ji Weixi was a little troubled.
Li Shaoling was a little surprised, but he laughed after staying quiet for a while. “You like and that’s enough.”
Ji Weixi sniffed through her bright red nose. “Give ti, and I will love you.”
“Okay.”

“Uncle Cong, is that Daddy’s proposing to Mommy?”
At the main entrance, the little one was trying his best to look skyward, his dark eyes reflecting the colorful radiance of the fireworks.
Jiang Cong nodded firmly. “Yeah.”
Then, he scowled miserably. “It also wore out like a dog. I’m telling you, little demon king, you must get your dad to give a raise! A raise!”
The little one turned his intelligent eyes to him. “Then you have to let stay at your ho tonight!”
Proposing is very important. He mustn’t disturb Mommy and Daddy getting him a sister!
Jiang Cong looked like soone just slapped him. “Fine...”

The fireworks continued, while the streetlights were still showing Ji Weixi’s na.
“Li Shaoling, hurry up and restore electricity to normal. Those poor people...” She said ekly.
Li Shaoling embraced her. “Take a longer look.”
She looked up at him. “I’m curious, how much did you spend?”
Li Shaoling clicked his tongue. “You haven’t married , and you couldn’t wait to mind my money already?”
“No! I’m just asking!”
“Probably two million.” He said casually.
“That expensive?” Ji Weixi frowned. “You’re such a wastrel.”
Li Shaoling pinched her nose punishingly. “And it’s for you!”
Ji Weixi leapt up to kiss her. “Thank you... oh, right. Am I going to be on TV tomorrow?”
“Yeah.”
“I didn’t even put on makeup. So ugly...”
Li Shaoling then snuggled up to whisper seductively into her ear. “Then shall we go ho right now, and let have a good look at you?”
“Our son is at ho.”
“No, he’ll be at Jiang Cong’s place.”
...Again.
