Li ngjie snatched the phone and said begrudgingly, "What are you laughing about? Although he’s indeed annoying, at least he knows how to be romantic. Why don’t you learn from him? I’ve never heard you say anything sweet."
Leng Xuan smiled, "If you gave a chance to woo you, I could whisper sweet nothings to you too."
"Really?" Li ngjie imdiately perked up with a smile, "Say sothing romantic to first. If it moves , maybe I’ll give you a chance."
"Alright." Leng Xuan nodded seriously, "Sweet nothings."
Li ngjie was expecting to hear so sweet words, but when Leng Xuan said nothing after ’sweet nothings,’ she couldn’t help urging him, "Why have you stopped? Keep going!"
Leng Xuan spread his hands, "I’m done. Didn’t you ask to say a sweet nothing? I’ve already said ’sweet nothings.’ What more do you want?"
"You..." Li ngjie, realizing she’d been played, imdiately felt resentful. She turned her head away, deciding to ignore Leng Xuan completely.
Seeing this, Leng Xuan couldn’t help but smile. He naturally knew Li ngjie wasn’t really angry, so he said, "How about I say another sweet nothing to you?"
"No thanks, not interested."
"I promise it will be a real romantic line."
"Are you sure?"
"Absolutely sure."
"Fine then." Li ngjie blinked her eyes threateningly, "I’ll give you one more chance, but if you play with like that again, I’ll ignore you for a month... half a month... no, a week."
"Okay, no problem." Leng Xuan took a deep breath, getting into the mood. To be honest, he had never actually said any sweet words to anyone over these years, not even to Zhao Xiaoqing and Pang Shanshan, the two girls he had been intimate with. But at that mont, the image of a stunning face surfaced in his mind. Perhaps, the only romantic line he’d ever said was to her.
Thinking of that girl who ant everything to him, a sharp pain struck his heart. They had been so happy together back then. He had thought she was his life, his everything. Having her, he felt his life had no more regrets. But then, fate played a cruel trick. Because of that incident, her deep love for him turned into overwhelming hate, and he, filled with remorse, could no longer dare to speak the word ’love,’ so laden with heartbreak.
He recalled that autumn, beneath the maple tree, holding her hand and looking into her shy face as he spoke those words, the girl’s shy nod of agreent. Sothing seed to be clogging his heart.
"Why aren’t you saying anything?" Li ngjie, unaware of the happiness filling Leng Xuan’s mind, pressed impatiently.
Leng Xuan gave a soft smile, gazing at Li ngjie with deep affection; it seed as if in this mont, that girl was standing before him. He moved his lips and slowly uttered that sole romantic statent he had ever made, "From now on, let’s never part, until forever." After saying these words, his eyes instantly reddened, with tears seemingly on the brink of forming.
"Cold Bodyguard..." Li ngjie stared at Leng Xuan, at a loss for words at that mont. She didn’t find anything special in Leng Xuan’s romantic line since it seed quite common. However, she felt the genuine emotion in those words. That deep, sincere love was not feigned. Moreover, in Leng Xuan’s gaze, she saw pain and remorse, and the profound helplessness of losing the one he loved without any chance of reconciliation.
