Chapter 739: Parting Confession
Li Shaotian looked at the undisguised smile on Xin Manqing's face, and also became happy, although this time he let Bo Jingyu pull back a game, but it was worth it to make Xin Manqing show a long-lost smile.
"So happy?"
Xin Manqing nodded, this disaster was caused by herself, and now that the dust has settled, Qinghuan Hospital has restored its reputation, and it has finally ended a matter on her mind before she went abroad.
"Of course, after the surgical accident, this matter has been weighing on my heart like a big stone, and now it has finally cleared the sky after the rain." Xin Manqing breathed a sigh of relief, secretly longing that now as long as they cracked the genetic code, they would have nothing to worry about now.
Li Shaotian unconsciously stroked her shoulder, Xin Manqing was stunned for a moment, his body froze, and then he took two steps back.
"Brother Li, we are not children anymore, and some actions are inappropriate to do again." Xin Manqing lowered his eyes and explained, with a little displeasure on his face.
Li Shaotian looked at his empty hand, and his heart was empty, and he said slowly: "It's Brother Li who has lost his temper." ”
Seeing the sincerity he said, Xin Manqing couldn't have another attack, so he could only be silent.
Li Shaotian looked at her quietly, with a little affection in his eyes, and then said: "Manqing, I have always wanted to talk to you." ”
Xin Manqing looked at him in surprise, thinking that he was leaving tomorrow, so he had something to tell himself, so he sat on the sofa opposite him according to Li Shaotian's wishes, leaning forward slightly.
"You remember when I was a child, it was also an early autumn evening, and we walked together on the Haihe River." Li Shaotian said as he got up and opened the window, letting the cool river breeze blow in.
Xin Manqing nodded, at that time they often walked by the river and talked about topics without content.
"I remember, one of the best memories of her youth." Xin Manqing said, a soft smile on his lips.
Li Shaotian leaned against the window, quietly looked at the delicate face that he never got tired of, and said with a smile: "Then do you remember what you once said to me by the river?" ”
Xin Manqing was surprised, she used to say so many things when she was a child, where do you remember that sentence?
Li Shaotian looked at her ignorant appearance, his heart softened, and he said, "You said that I would be Brother Li's bride." He paused word by word, and his deep chestnut eyes carried a deep affection that could not be refused.
"Ha, that's a childhood joke, Brother Li, do you remember." Xin Manqing pursed his lips and smiled, a little embarrassed.
"Jokes? I have kept one of your jokes in my heart for so many years. Li Shaotian said as he took out a yellowed photo from his arms, the faces on it were already a little blurry, but he and Xin Manqing's faces could still be seen clearly.
"You still have this picture?" Xin Manqing took the photo and looked at it carefully for a long time, and the old memories came back to his mind, and he couldn't hide the emotion on his face.
Li Shaotian quietly looked at her reflection, and said slowly: "Of course, I have been thinking about you by watching it all these years, and you think it was a joke back then, I have always regarded you as my future wife." ”
Xin Manqing stood up from the sofa in surprise, looked at Li Shaotian in disbelief, and turned his head: "Brother Li, I am already Bo Jingyu's wife, don't say this kind of joke again in the future." ”
Li Shaotian strode into Xin Manqing, held her shoulder, and said seriously: "Don't run away from my topic, tell me, do you have me in your heart?" Would you like to be with me now? ”
The words that had been pent up in his heart finally made him say it in one go, and while Li Shaotian breathed a sigh of relief, his heart rose again, quietly waiting for her answer.
Xin Manqing broke free of his arm, took two steps back, and his voice was a little cold: "Brother Li, it's impossible between us." ”
"Why can't it be! We have been childhood sweethearts since childhood, and you have said that you want to marry me since you were a child, don't these count? Li Shaotian was a little out of control, pressing step by step, and squeezed Xin Manqing into the corner, Xin Manqing refused, not wanting him to get close.
"Brother Li, calm down!" Xin Man scolded sharply, a little frightened by his out-of-control appearance.
Li Shaotian stopped, the affection on his face did not fade for half a minute, he just looked at Xin Manqing quietly, and was silent for a long time.
Xin Manqing turned his head away from looking at him, and the meaning of resistance on his face was very obvious. Li Shaotian took two steps back, let go of Xin Manqing, and then said: "I'm leaving tomorrow, I don't know when I'll see you again this time, so I told you what I had held in my heart for so many years." ”
Xin Manqing didn't speak, but when he was a child, he said that he took it so seriously, and after thinking about it for so many years, she was a little moved, and at the same time felt a little tricky......
Opposite the old-fashioned playmate, Li Shaotian, who took care of herself a lot, she couldn't bear to hurt and couldn't respond, except for being silent, she didn't know what to do.
"I know you're having a hard time accepting it for a while, but don't be in a hurry to reject me, and then talk about it after a while, okay?" Li Shaotian said with a bit of pleading, for fear that Xin Manqing would refuse, and there would be no room for continued dating.
The chestnut eyebrows and eyes had a nervous look, and there was a bit of domineering that was bound to win.
Xin Manqing was a little frightened by him, and took two steps back, his whole body was almost attached to the cold wall, stiff and didn't dare to move, for fear of angering the somewhat tyrannical Li Shaotian in front of him.
"Promise me, think about it, huh?"
Xin Manqing took a deep breath, shook his head, and said firmly: "Brother Li, you take back what you just said, I won't think about it, I never thought of leaving Bo Jingyu." ”
Whether it was in the past or now, there has always been only one person in her heart.
"No, don't say it." Li Shaotian covered Xin Manqing's mouth, not wanting to hear her continue to say hurtful words, the warm touch on his hand made him feel rippling.
Xin Manqing struggled and waved away Li Shaotian's hand: "Brother Li, we are not children anymore." ”
Don't take those past seriously!
Li Shaotian rubbed the scratches on the back of his hand that were scratched by Xin Manqing, pursed his lips and smiled, just like when he was a child, like a cat, he grabbed people when he was in a hurry.
"Okay, since you don't want to hear it, then I won't say it, but promise me to give me a formal answer in a month, okay?" Li Shaotian took two steps back, loosened the grip on Xin Manqing, and sat back on the sofa.
Xin Manqing breathed a sigh of relief, sat opposite him, took a sip of coffee, and did not say anything.
"Tomorrow's plane, I'm going back to Haicheng, will you see me off?" Li Shaotian's voice was gentle, with a hint of pleading.
Xin Manqing clenched his fingers, hesitated for a while, shook his head, when he was interrupted, he was chaotic, and now he could only choose to hurt him.
"I have a group meeting tomorrow, I'm afraid I won't be able to spare time."
Li Shaotian got up and went back to his room without saying anything more.
