Chapter 25: Do you want to do it
Being stared at like this by the other party, Tang Xiaomian didn't have the courage to continue explaining, so he could only look away again, block his cheeks with his hands, and pretend to comb his hair: "Don't look at me." ā
"It's the most basic courtesy and respect to look at each other when talking, what do I look at you if I don't look at you?" Lin Wang is serious.
"You, look at the computer, I don't need respect for the time being." Tang Xiaomian whispered.
"That's ...... Okay, then I'll take a look at the scenery for a while, you can continue. Lin Wang thought for a moment, turned his gaze to the dark night sky outside the window, and didn't continue to joke.
He had just heard from the girl a tone that was so shy that it bordered on coquettishness.
It is estimated that if the flirting continues, the other party will be really anxious.
- He was afraid that he would be hammered on the head by a magic wand.
"Actually, I just discussed with Lin Chaochao that I wanted to move out...... In her sight, you and I are an online dating couple after all, and if I move out, it will definitely not be appropriate to rent a house by myself, so I told her that I will live with you when the time comes...... Tang Xiaomian explained.
"It's just an excuse?"
"Hmm...... Actually, it's not an excuse. ā
"What do you mean?" Lin Wang looked back at her.
"IāI was thinking of discussing the sharing with you in a few days......
Tang Xiaomian paused for half a second, feeling that there seemed to be ambiguity in saying this, so he hurriedly added, "It's not that I live with you, it's a new apartment with two bedrooms shared by the two of us." ā
"Shared flat?" Lin Wang opened his mouth slightly.
He repeats "cohabitation" in his mouth, but "cohabitation" in his mind.
This seems to be going a little fast......
"Well, I think it might save us both some money." Tang Xiaomian nodded.
"No, a two-bedroom apartment is more expensive than a one-bedroom apartment, right?"
"Well, I mean, the two of us split the rent evenly, so you should be able to spend a little less than you do now."
"But the two of us together will spend more money than we do now." Lin Wang analyzed carefully.
"Why add it up, shouldn't they be counted separately?" Tang Xiaomian asked subconsciously.
"Why do you want to count each other?" Lin Wang looked at her and asked calmly.
"I ......" Tang Xiaomian saw his expression, reacted instantly, and then lowered his head a little overwhelmed.
"However, my room is a bit small."
Lin Wang turned his head to look at his bedroom, and casually brought the topic back on track, "If you want to rent a house again, it's best to bring an independent studio to facilitate us to draw and write programs." ā
"Hmm......" Tang Xiaomian secretly breathed a sigh of relief and answered in a low voice, "I plan to go and see the new house next month when I have time." ā
"Yes, we're together." Lin Wang nodded.
"Okay."
Tang Xiaomian combed his sideburns a little unnaturally, and glanced at the door, "Then I'll ...... first."
"Little cotton." Lin Wang suddenly interrupted her.
"W-What?" Tang Xiaomian subconsciously responded, and then felt that something seemed to be wrong with the other party's tone.
In other words, from the moment the other party said the phrase "why do you want to count each other", the atmosphere between the two has become quite strange.
"Honestly......"
Lin Wang was silent for a long time, took a long breath, and looked up at her, "I have a good impression of you." ā
"Huh?" Tang Xiaomian opened his mouth slightly, unconsciously clenched his palms, his heart pounded, and his brain became chaotic.
This...... What is this?
Is it a confession?
It was too sudden, didn't give her any time to prepare......
"But I'm not sure if that's a liking." Lin Wang continued.
"......" Tang Xiaomian closed his mouth again, not knowing how to respond.
Doesn't that sound like a confession?
"From a rational point of view, with your appearance and personality, plus the fact that we have been close to each other as a couple for more than ten days, if I don't have some good feelings for you, then I will doubt my sexual orientation." Lin Wang said.
"......" Tang Xiaomian pursed his lips and wanted to laugh, but he couldn't help it.
This is supposed to be complimenting her, right?
Yes, she must be praising her!
"Originally, I wanted to maintain the same state as before, and the two of them continued to live tepidly, waiting for the day when 'favor' turned into 'like', and then naturally developed into real boyfriend and girlfriend...... However, I just suddenly found out that this doesn't seem to work......" Lin Wang said seriously.
"Why?" Tang Xiaomian subconsciously asked, and then felt that something was wrong, and immediately reached out to cover his mouth, lowered his head and secretly looked at him with his peripheral vision.
"Because I'm not sure what you think."
Lin Wang smiled, "I thought that you also had a good impression of me, and thought that we were slowly cultivating our relationship in both directions, and then silently waiting for the day when the relationship would change qualitatively...... But what if you don't have any thoughts about me at all? What if someone chases you during this time? What if you've been waiting for me and have lost your patience? ā
He paused, and then removed the smile from his face, "So I don't think I can be silent, let alone passively wait......
He exhaled lightly and looked at the girl in front of him, "...... I had to take the initiative to say everything I had to say at the very beginning. ā
"......" Tang Xiaomian glanced up at him, and quickly lowered his head.
She noticed that her heart seemed to be beating louder and louder, her cheeks were getting hotter and hotter, and she was dizzy.
These words feel much more exciting than a simple confession......
"My current state of mind is not so much about liking as it is about possessiveness."
Lin Wang confessed, "I'm not sure if you like me or not, and I'm not sure if we'll be together in the future, but in order to avoid some unexpected situations in the future, I must show my attitude in advance now and not let myself regret it." ā
Tang Xiaomian touched his hot earlobe, but did not make a sound.
"What do you think when I'm done?"
"Ah, what, what, what do you think?"
"Your response." Lin Wang chuckled and asked softly.
"But you didn't ...... There is no confession, right? Tang Xiaomian plucked up the courage to ask a rhetorical question, moved his steps slightly, felt that his whole body was numb, and his consciousness began to become blurred, as if he was in a dream.
"Okay, then I'll translate it to you more simply and straightforwardly......"
Lin Wang sat up straight and said word by word, "I mean, I want to cultivate a relationship with you generously and clearly, and turn you into my real girlfriend......
He softened his tone, "What do you think?" ā
"I ......"
Tang Xiaomian pursed her lips, swallowed a mouthful of saliva nervously, and struggled for a long time before she said, "I know." ā
"That's not a response, is it?" Lin Wang was not satisfied with this answer.
"That ......"
Tang Xiaomian hesitated for a long time, and then asked tentatively, "Okay?" ā
"Are you playing a guessing game with me?" Lin Wang looked at her angrily and funny.
"And what do you want me to say?"
Tang Xiaomian felt aggrieved, "Do you want me to answer something like 'I really want to cultivate a relationship with you'?" That's too, too ......."
"So do you want to?" Lin Wang asked.
"Ah......" Tang Xiaomian was stunned.
"Do you want to?"
"It should ...... Think about it. ā
