Chapter 75 Heart-to-heart talk
  In fact, she had never thought about this problem. After all, she had experienced a miserable life in her previous life. After she was reborn, she only wanted to change her fate. She thought about how to improve the fate of her family, let her family

  live a good life, and also to realize the dream that she had not realized in her previous life. But when it comes to love, she never dared to hope. Years of inferiority complex made her suppress the desire in her heart. In Fang Qing's view, being able to live well and pursue her dreams was the greatest mercy from God for her.

  As for such a beautiful and passionate love, Fang Qing did not dare to try.

  Firstly, she had never been in love before and did not know how to maintain a sincere relationship; secondly, she did not know what kind of person she liked, let alone what to do when love came.

  Wen Ning was her only friend of the opposite sex. Of course, he was very good, but because he was too good, Fang Qing felt ashamed of herself.

  Wen Ning is like the moon in the sky. You can only watch from afar. Once you get close, you will be enveloped by his light. Fang Qing is worried that if she really falls in love with him, she will lose herself forever.

  Seeing Fang Qing's tangled face, Wen Ning gradually lost confidence in his heart.

  He sat down next to Fang Qing, grabbed Fang Qing's shoulders and asked her to look him in the eye. "Fang Qing, look into my eyes."

  Fang Qing looked at Wen Ning who was so close to her, and felt that her mind, which had just been somewhat clear, was not working well again. She could only notice the warmth of the palm on her shoulder and the handsome face of the man in front of her. "What, what?"

  Fang Qing's well-behaved appearance made Wen Ning's heart soften. He wanted to hug this girl, but was afraid that his abrupt behavior would scare her, so he could only reach out and smooth the long hair on her shoulders.

  "I didn't understand what love was before, and I still don't understand it now, but I want you to understand. I hope you'll always be in my life. I'm not as good as you imagine, but I'm willing to be what you expect. So, please consider my words, okay?"

  Fang Qing nodded like a puppet, her endearing presence softening Wen Ning's heart. He coughed, then turned his head to the side, forcing himself to calm down.

  Ever since he'd made up his mind, Wen Ning's eyes on Fang Qing had grown fonder. He finally understood why those couples on TV were always so glued together.

  Wen Ning shifted his posture, sitting on the edge of the bed, his hands on his knees, and staring out the window. "Then... you can tell me how you feel about me now."

  The setting sun bathed Wen Ning's stunning profile, and Fang Qing couldn't help but stare a few more times. Shaking her head, she shook off her wild thoughts and gazed quietly out the window. "You're actually... a very nice person. Gentle and patient, and... very beautiful."

  At this point, Fang Qing bit her lip. Oh my god, what was she talking about? How could she say that in front of me?

  Fang Qing expressed his feelings about Wen Ning in a halting manner, "That's...that's all. I don't know how else to put it."

  Wen Ning listened to Fang Qing's words. Though his words weren't as eloquent as when others praised him in the past, he felt comfortable, and the tension in his heart gradually dissipated.

  "Yeah, I understand."

  It seemed his little girl didn't dislike him, but perhaps she just hadn't seen her feelings clearly. It didn't matter. They had plenty of time to figure it out.

  But since he had already made his feelings clear, he still had to make some things clear. "Don't worry. Actually, I only realized my feelings yesterday. I understand that feelings can't be forced, so I'm giving you time to think it through. But no matter what you decide in the end, I hope you will follow your heart. Don't deceive me, and don't deceive yourself."

  Hearing Wen Ning's gentle voice, Fang Qing's restless heart slowly calmed. He was always so gentle and calm, which made Fang Qing even more unsure whether he truly loved her or was just mistaking gratitude for being rescued.

  "Wen Ning, I still feel... it's too fast. Do you want to calm down?"

  Wen Ning suppressed the throbbing in his heart and exhaled, "I do need to calm down." After saying that, he opened the door and strode out. He washed his face with cold water in the yard before returning.

  In order to avoid further embarrassment, Wen Ning took the initiative to change the subject.

  "By the way, I always forget to ask you, when did you become such a good swimmer? I heard from my older sisters that if it weren't for you, they wouldn't have found me so quickly. I remember that year when I took you to the swimming pool, and you choked on the water."

  Fang Qing smiled and nodded. "It was because of that choking that I realized how weak I was. Everyone else was able to move freely in the water, but I was the only one sitting on the shore like an idiot. I don't want to experience that embarrassment again. I may not be very smart, but I will eventually learn with more practice. Since then, I've made time to study every weekend, and I'm finally making some progress."

  Wen Ning looked at Fang Qing's relaxed face and couldn't help but feel happy too. "You've worked hard. Fang Qing, don't underestimate yourself. You're very good. Believe that you are the best."

  Fang Qing was a little embarrassed by being praised like this by her peers for the first time. "You don't have to praise me like that. I know what kind of person I am."

  There was a moment of silence in the air. Wen Ning coughed. Although he had never pursued a girl before, he knew that such an awkward atmosphere would not be conducive to strengthening their relationship, so he took the initiative to ask about her recent studies.

  When it came to studying, Fang Qing finally found something to talk about.

  While Fang Qing had good grades, unlike Wen Ning, she wasn't top-notch in every subject. Of all the subjects, she dreaded physics and chemistry the most. Even if she followed the teacher's exercises during class, her mind would turn to muddle once she picked up the worksheets after class.

  Wen Ning, noticing her embarrassment, patiently reviewed study techniques for each subject. Recalling the Gaokao exam, Wen Ning simply picked up a pen, recalled the questions, and wrote them down, asking Fang Qing to try calculating them.

  Fang Qing, a little excited, picked up her pen and began analyzing and calculating.

  In previous years, the college entrance examinations were always easier with each session becoming more difficult. The difficulty level for Wen Ning's exam was medium, but the comprehensive science questions were still set to a certain level of difficulty. Fang Qing bit his pen and read the questions for a long time without understanding them. Seeing Wen Ning sitting next to him, he felt a little guilty. He straightened his posture and read the questions a few more times. Finally, he understood what the question meant and began to calculate.

  Wen Ning looked at Fang Qing calculating on the paper while checking his watch

  . He finally sighed, "Forget it, stop." Then he took the pen from Fang Qing's hand, pulled out a piece of white paper, and quickly wrote down a few formulas on it, writing out the steps to solve the problem in a simple and clear manner.

  Watching Wen Ning write, Fang Qing suddenly realized, "Ah, I know, this is what this sentence means, oh, I should have thought of it..."

  After Wen Ning finished writing, Fang Qing also fully realized that there is indeed a difference between grassroots and masters.
