After rejecting my celebrity husband

Chapter 250 - 251: Will You Always Stay With Me Like This【7】

"It’s really I who should be thanking you, for not only sharing your dreams with me, but also for bringing me here to see the sea!" Luo Xiaoqian stood up, slowly walking to the edge of the water, cupping her hands around her mouth. She shouted toward the Night Sea, "Leng Zimo, keep it up, you will succeed!"

Her voice flew with the sea breeze towards the water, spreading far and wide.

Leng Zimo lifted his face.

It was the beginning of the month, and there was no moon in the sky, only the scattering of stars.

Her slender figure stood between the sea and sky, her clothing and hair billowing slightly in the wind.

In that moment, it was as if the entire night’s sky and the earth became her backdrop; she was merely a silhouette, yet she remained so beautiful and touching.

In his eyes, there was only her.

That figure was his entire world.

Putting down the beer can he held, not minding the spilt beer that poured out of the fallen can, he walked slowly behind her and extended his arms to embrace her.

"Xiao Qian, will you always be with me like this?"

The question came so suddenly that Luo Xiaoqian was startled, her back, which had been resting naturally against his chest, suddenly stiffened.

Always?

How far is always?!

"I never thought about it."

She said honestly.

She really hadn’t considered this question; by her count, up until now, she hadn’t been with him for even a month.

How could she dare to think about forever?!

"Think about it now."

He held her waist, not letting her leave him.

Luo Xiaoqian sensed something unusual in his tone; she couldn’t see his face and assumed he was angry again.

"Okay."

She whispered in agreement, letting him hold her tightly in his arms.

Then, she thought.

From the very beginning, when he’d controlled her every move, to their journey together up until now, he’d helped her countless times. This man had moved her deeply; up to this point, he was the kindest man she’d known in her life aside from her father.

But the promise of forever felt too heavy.

They’d had misunderstandings and arguments; she knew that her feelings for this man had evolved from initial hostility and that, through each misunderstanding, her understanding of him increased. He became more and more like the Leng Zimo she was once familiar with, the idol she’d always admired.

She liked him, she was grateful to him, but what about him?

How could such an outstanding man like him possibly like her?

Luo Xiaoqian lacked that confidence.

Luo Xiaoqian honestly uttered four words.

"I don’t know."

She’d told him too many lies before, and this time, she didn’t want to deceive him any further.

What does ’I don’t know’ mean?

Leng Zimo suddenly grasped her shoulders, turning her to face him.

Holding her arms tightly, he asked in a deep voice, "Dare you look into my eyes and say you don’t like me?"

The comfort in the graveyard, her somewhat clumsy acting just now to make him eat meat...

Wasn’t it all because she liked him, cared about him, that she acted that way?

Luo Xiaoqian gazed into his eyes. His eyes were dark and bright, reflecting a tiny figure in the pupils—that was her.

"I do."

She said.

How could it be possible not to like him?

In her teenage years, she’d dreamed countless times of a chance meeting with this idol on the streets, then he would glance at her, smile at her, and just that smile would suffice.

The things he’d done for her these days, were what ordinary people couldn’t possibly do.

Who wouldn’t like such an outstanding man?

Hearing the word ’like’ from her, Leng Zimo’s heart which had been in suspension, suddenly fell back into place.
