Chapter 223: Chapter 223: Liking someone is like the blooming of flowers in spring
The downpour of fists suddenly stopped, hanging in mid-air!
Chi Enen’s heart skipped a beat, feeling hopeful. The hands embracing his waist tightened a bit more, and she continued, “Both Baby Chi and 1 need you. If something happens to you, Baby Chi and I definitely won’t be able to take it.” “Think about it, he hasn’t even met you yet and he’s about to lose you again. How pitiful is that.”
The coldness in the man’s demeanor dissipated quite a bit.
She pressed on, casting aside her shame, and blurted out, “And there’s me, we’ve just started dating, we agreed to give it a try. If you go to prison because of him, I… 1 will be sad.”
Wang Jian covered his face, trembling uncontrollably. He had been beaten senseless, no different from a terrified ostrich, sobbing, “Don’t hit me… Please… Don’t hit me… It’s my fault… It’s all my fault…”
Chi Enen was worried that his voice would provoke the man who had just stopped, and she felt a bit anxious. As she was biting her lip, thinking about how to persuade Li Beijue to stop, she suddenly heard a raspy, deep voice above her, “Chi Enen, keep talking.”
“Alt? Talking about what?”
“Say you care about me, say you can’t leave me.”
Chi Enen’s cheeks flushed red, with so many people around, she really struggled to say it.
But she was afraid Li Beijue would continue hitting Wang Jian, so she had to pretend she couldn’t see the onlookers, fiercely suppressing her shyness, and continued with blushed face, “Li Beijue, I care about you, I can’t leave you.”
“I want to hear more.”
Chi Enen was so red she could fry an Egg, “I care about you, 1 can’t leave you.” “Hmm? Keep going.”
“… I care about you, 1 can’t leave you.” Chi Enen’s face wasn’t just feverishly hot, it was burning to the point of smoking.
She had never so boldly confessed her feelings in front of a crowd before, and even though it was under duress, her heart thumped wildly as if it was about to leap out of her chest.
“How much do you care? How much can’t you leave?” Li Beijue turned around, his falcon-like eyes capturing hers, his black obsidian eyes reflecting her image as if those beautiful eyes only saw her, only had room for her!
Chi Enen was flustered by the question and asked him in a daze, “That… How much should I care? How much can’t 1 leave?”
He only told her to say she cared about him, couldn’t leave him, he never told her to what extent—how was she supposed to know how much that should be?
Li Beijue’s thin lips met, and in a low, sexy voice, he declared as if taking an oath, “Chi Enen, I care about you more than life itself, and 1 can’t leave you more than 1 need to live!”
To care for her more than for life itself.
Not being able to leave her was even more crucial than life itself.
If she said she felt nothing at this point, it would surely be a lie; no girl could face such a domineering declaration of love without being affected. Especially when the man professing such words was—Li Beijue!
He was born to stand high above others, at the top of the Pyramid! The value of his life was immeasurable. Yet, he seriously said that his life was nothing compared to caring for her! Leaving her would be a matter even greater than life and death!
Thump, thump!
Chi Enen could clearly hear the sound of her accelerating heartbeat.
Thump, thump, thump, each beat seemed to strike right at her heart. The resonance in her chest, producing an echo, every vibration, she could hear its echo.
She suddenly understood a little what it felt like to like someone.
To like someone was like the blossoming of spring flowers!
