Chapter 180: Take a gamble
"I... I don't know..."
Cai Cai lowered her long lupine-like eyelashes, and she gently bit her soft and plump lower lip.
At this moment, she really can't give the answer he wants, because she can't even see her own heart clearly, how can she give him the answer?
Staring at a small spot on the table, she helplessly pressed her hands to her legs, and her heart had already become a mess of incomprehensible numbness.
The thought of rejecting him made her feel a little strange in the bottom of her heart, and she couldn't tell what it was like. It seems that there is pain, sadness, reluctance, and regret...
But when she thought of accepting him, she was afraid that she would live up to his deep affection in the future. If that's the case, how should she deal with herself?
She really didn't know what to do...
Sensing her hesitation, Deng Junting's heart churned with joy.
Although she did not promise him, she did not refuse him either.
At the very least, she wasn't unsympathetic to him.
This means that there is still hope for him.
It's just not sure if she didn't refuse, because she liked it a little, or because she had some favoritism.
She hadn't been able to see her heart yet.
Clenched into a fist under the table, he made up his final decision:
In that case, let him gamble ruthlessly.
Raising his eyes and staring at the slightly lowered face, his voice contained a strong affection and firm determination:
"Xiao Cai, you don't have to think about anything, just listen to the voice in your heart."
Leaning his chest close to the table, he gently stroked the few strands of her hair that had fallen down and gently stroked it behind her ear:
"Actually, I rushed back this time to tell you that you still have me, and you will have me by your side now or in the future. So, don't let yourself be sad and sad, I'll be distressed. ”
Such heartfelt words made Cai Cai's nose a little pantothenic.
She knew that what he said was what was in his heart.
"Xiaocai, look at me."
His voice seemed to have some kind of magic, making Cai Cai raise his head slightly and look into his affectionate eyes.
"I will bring you joy and happiness because I really like you. If you're not ready to accept me, let's make an agreement. ”
Conventions?
Looking at him for a moment, Cai Cai waited for him to continue talking.
"Since you can't see your heart now, let's make a deadline for trying to date. Please give me 3 months to try to date with you. If you still can't like me within this period, then I will bury my relationship deep in the bottom of my heart. From now on, I'm just a good friend of yours, okay? ”
May I? Should she promise him?
Clenching the hem of her lotus pink skirt, she was a little overwhelmed.

Deng Junting looked at her expectantly, he was waiting for her answer.
"I... I..."
She clutched the pink skirts so tightly that they crumpled into a ball.
Time passed minute by minute, but she still couldn't find the answer.
Her silence made Deng Junting's heart sink little by little.
His eyes dimmed, and he glanced at the time on his phone.
"Xiaocai, I booked a flight back to New York at 7:10 tonight, because I have an important meeting to attend tomorrow afternoon, so I don't have much time to stay here."
Sighing, he stood up:
"Well, I'm only ten steps away from that shelf, and if you can't make up your mind after I've taken these ten steps, then I'll be your friend forever."
Looking down at her, he was a little depressed and lost:
"Perhaps, I won't be back for a while."
Such a sad place, let him stay away from here first and heal the wounds in his heart.
He's not coming back!?
Shocked, Cai Cai looked at him in a panic, and the fingertips that clenched the pink skirt were flushed with blue and white.
No! Don't go!
Sitting helplessly in his chair, he watched as he slowly turned around and walked towards the shelf ten paces away.
One step, two steps...
Because of the nervousness, her face became a little pale, and her pink lips became bloodless.
No! I don't want you to go!
She shouted loudly in her heart in panic to tell him not to go, but her lips were tightly closed and couldn't be opened.
Four steps, five steps...
The footsteps became heavier and heavier, and Deng Junting's heart became more and more cold.
It was a despair that was about to descend to the coldest bottom, where there was only a vast darkness, lifeless and lifeless.
At such a moment, he truly realized that his decision was wrong, and the one he put down all the chips to gamble was doomed to failure.
He shouldn't have run back impulsively, in order to let himself suffer the pain of the bone marrow again.
Raising his head, he looked at the backpack within reach, and there was no hope in his heart.
Eight steps, nine steps...
Die.
Reaching forward, he prepared to take off his black backpack.
"Wait..."
Deng Junting's right foot, which had just taken the tenth step, stopped the inertial movement of falling forward in mid-air, just because of this small voice like thunder.
"Wait, I... I promise you. ”

sp; Her crisp voice, a little shy, a little nervous, and as if relieved.
Turning around suddenly, Deng Junting looked at his eyes in disbelief.
Ecstatic, he could no longer express the ten-thousandth of the excitement in his heart at the moment.
"Don't cry."
Taking a step, he anxiously wanted to walk back and hug her.
"Stop."
He had just taken two steps before she stopped me.
Standing in place, he looked at her in bewilderment.
No... Regretted it so quickly, right?
His heart suddenly fell to the bottom again.
The corners of his lips were almost invisibly hooked, and Cai Cai's slightly hoarse voice was very gentle:
"Stretch out your left hand."
Suspiciously, he reached forward with his left hand, and he looked at her.
"Stretch out your right hand again."
Yi Yan stretched out his right hand forward as well.
"And then hold them together."
Well, the two big hands clasped together, and they formed an oval shape in mid-air.
This is... What do you mean?
Deng Junting looked at the oval formed by his hands, and he looked at Cai Cai, who had already stood up from the chair, in confusion.
"Are you ready?"
Get ready? What to prepare?
The doubts in his eyes were almost directly transformed into two question marks in capital letters and bold, hanging on his face.
He couldn't guess what she was thinking.
Clenching her hands that loosened the hem of her skirt, she suddenly smiled at him, lifted her steps and walked briskly towards him, and when she was close to her eyes, she suddenly half-crouched and took the last step forward.
Just then, she slipped into the crook of his oval arm, raised her eyes and smiled brightly at him.
Looking at the extremely bright smile, Deng Junting finally came to his senses, he relaxed his arm and hugged her into his arms, never wanting to let go.
Happiness always comes in the most desperate moments.
Such a wonderful feeling made him feel as if he had stepped on the clouds and touched heaven.
"I've been ready for a long time."
Digging his chin into her cloudy hair, and smelling the faint scent of her hair, he murmured:
"I really like you, Xiaocai, thank you for trying to like me."
Pillowed in his broad and warm embrace, her joy flew up uncontrollably:
"No, I may have liked you for a long time, but I didn't know it."
The smile on his lips deepened, and he tightened his arms, holding her tightly in his long-lonely arms.
If he doesn't bet on this, perhaps, he won't get anything.
