Volume 2 Hello, Xia Mi Chapter 179 Confession (Part 2)
The distance was only one step away, but Lu Mingfei walked for a long, long time, until everyone's breathing could be heard. She looked up at Chu Zihang, her eyes brighter than ever before, without blinking.
This was perhaps the boldest moment in her life. She had imagined many times the scene of herself confessing to Chu Zihang. The shy girl spoke in a soft voice, warily trying to figure out his expression. If he showed any displeasure, she would run away quickly.
But this time it was really different, all the past seemed to come together to make her determined to move forward. Secret love cannot be seen in the light, no matter how much you like it, no matter how much you do it, maybe it will never be known in your life. Since you have met a stupid wooden fish, you can only muster up the courage to hit it hard so as not to regret it.
The distance between the two was too close, and Chu Zihang was the first to lose his temper. Not to mention a girl, he had never stood next to a man as if they were about to hug each other in his life. But he would not take the initiative to say something unpleasant. Maybe Lu Mingfei just didn't realize that her behavior was a bit over the line. In order to consider her face, he chose to step back silently and keep his distance.
But he forgot one thing. There was a Roman pillar behind him. He took two steps back before bumping into it, leaving him with no way to retreat. This made him, who was usually as calm as dead water, open his eyes slightly, which was unusual for him. He seemed a little panicked, and Lu Mingfei had already followed him.
So you also have such an expression? Lu Mingfei was happy, and leaned forward with her hands in her school uniform pockets, raised her legs high and stepped on Chu Zihang's right shoulder. The autumn wind blew and lifted the hem of her skirt, revealing her black leggings.
"Look at me carefully." Her eyes were as sharp as a knife, just like a gangster girl who was forcing a marriage. This scene would be complete if she had a bubble gum in her mouth, and it would be best if she blew it up and then slapped it on Chu Zihang's face.
Chu Zihang originally had a chance to escape, but now he didn't dare to move because of Lu Mingfei's words. The look in her eyes clearly meant that if you dare to run away, I will kill you.
"Do you know what I'm going to say?" Lu Mingfei asked.
Chu Zihang shook his head blankly, looking a little pitiful and innocent. Although the scene was a little special, he was still unwilling to believe a certain fact.
"I like you. Even if the sky falls and the earth collapses, and today is the end of the world, I still want to say that I like you. I am such a vulgar person. Like many girls in Shilan Middle School, I have liked you since that time." Lu Mingfei took a deep breath, "I know you are just a high monk in the temple. You are not good at expressing your feelings, nor will you respond to other people's feelings, so don't think that what you say next will hurt me. For several years, I have been prepared. No matter whether the ending is good or bad, I want to get your most sincere answer."
At the moment of the final confession, she couldn't help but be a little timid. She failed to look Chu Zihang in the face. Her slender eyebrows drooped, and she looked at his chest intentionally or unintentionally.
She is just that kind of person. Even if she tries to act strong and gain the upper hand, if she relaxes a little, she will be found out that she is not confident enough.
Chu Zihang remained silent. In the past, many people had spread rumors about him and Lu Mingfei on the college forum, but he had never taken them seriously. He even stood up to support Lu Mingfei at a class reunion at Shilan Middle School so that she could have some glory for a while.
But ever since Xia Mi told him in person that the little junior sister who was always pestering him really liked him, he saw something different about Lu Mingfei. For example, she was not so close to everyone. When other seniors and juniors invited her to dinner or gave her gifts, she would usually smile a little reservedly, not so heartless. In the eyes of most people, she began to play the role of the cute girl who knew how to eat and play, willing to sit down and play games and chat, and talk about the latest gossip, but when she lowered her head, she would still tap on the screen of her mobile phone, and then one of Chu Zihang's social software would beep to notify her of new messages.
There are some parts of her that she is willing to show to many people, but there are always some sides that only you know.
"Thank you for liking me." Chu Zihang said softly, "But I can't give you an answer now."
The light in Lu Mingfei's eyes dimmed a little. This was an expected answer. Compared to nodding, this possibility was more in line with her imagination, because when she was in Shilan Middle School, there were girls who had the courage to confess to him, and he thanked them in the same way at that time.
"What's the reason?" But she did not give up so easily. She was different from those girls who just liked someone simply.
"I can't easily promise happiness to someone, because even I am not very happy. I came to the academy just to track down my enemies. This kind of life is destined to be turbulent. Maybe one day in the future I can find Odin, or I may die halfway. I have nothing to miss. The only people I feel sorry for are my parents. I wrote a suicide note a long time ago and gave it to Norma. In it, I told them that if I disappeared, I hope they can have another child and don't need to care about me." Chu Zihang said faintly, "If I nod to you, there will be one more sad person in the future."
"Have you ever considered who to be with? Are you so willing to be a lone wolf?"
Lu Mingfei thought that his senior brother’s idea was really cool, but she also felt sad, because it meant that he had taken the initiative to build a high wall around him, refusing entry to anyone who wanted to peek into his heart.
"This is my own business, I shouldn't involve others. Some suffering should be borne by myself, there is no need to tell others to share it."
As if he felt that such a rejection was too blunt, and as if he thought he should say something more to comfort the injured girl, Chu Zihang put his hands on Lu Mingfei's shoulders, slowly pushed her away, and let her release the awkward posture.
"You are a very good girl. There are many people who are willing to like you. As long as you want, you can always find a more suitable person. And I am just an insignificant passer-by. Maybe you won't see me in the next mission. I don't want you to be sad because of me." He spoke earnestly, like an uncle who came over to advise a young girl not to always hang herself on a tree.
"But I... am very sad now..."
Tears fell uncontrollably. Lu Mingfei simply squatted down and buried her head in her arms, hiding the worst side of herself.
Although I have thought about this kind of ending...but when I actually heard it, I was still so sad that my heart was tied into a ball.
She thought that they were partners in life and death on the rainy night on the viaduct, but in his eyes it was just a coincidence. He had already repaid her, and they were no longer related. His future was full of thorns. As a cold-blooded avenger, he didn't want anyone to feel sad because of him. In other words, she never occupied an important position in his heart. Perhaps in this guy's eyes, the three words "Lu Mingfei" meant the same thing as so many girls who liked him, which could be Chen Wenwen, Liu Miaomiao, or even Su Qian...
Chu Zihang was a little at a loss. The classmates passing by heard the faint sobbing and cast curious glances at him, which made him even more embarrassed. A girl's tears might be the most lethal nuclear weapon in the world to him. Even his bastard father often told him that a man who made a woman cry was the most vulgar.
He wanted to reach out and pull her up, and say something to comfort her, but Lu Mingfei ignored him and slapped the damn hand away.
"If you don't care about me, just leave me alone and do your own thing, Mr. Lionheart!" She shouted loudly, as if this could separate everyone from each other.
From the beginning, she stopped calling him "senior brother" and just called Chu Zihang by his name. Now, she doesn't even want his name anymore and calls him "President Lionheart". No matter how stupid Chu Zihang is, he knows that when the girl gets angry, she is sad and angry. She is basically like a powder keg. Don't think that tears will silence the fire. They are powerful catalysts that can turn explosives into nuclear bombs.
This really made it difficult for a straight man like him. Chu Zihang quickly recalled his life experiences so far, trying to find a way to break the current situation.
A familiar figure appeared in his mind. It was an Italian man with blond hair and strong chest muscles. His biggest feature was his bright smile like a fool. Of course, this evaluation was not from Chu Zihang himself, but from those little men who envied and hated Caesar. They always thought that there shouldn't be a male creature with such a smile in the world, until they met Caesar, who smiled like the Great Gatsby raising his glass to signal you.
What would happen if the person crying was Nono and the person standing here was Caesar?
Chu Zihang's inertial experimental thinking as a science student allowed him to quickly and boldly make assumptions in his mind. There were two people around him who understood the opposite sex best: his bastard father and Caesar. When he encountered this situation, he naturally used Caesar to simulate the experiment. It should be right to learn from him, right ? After all, he could handle so many girls. This ability was simply amazing in Chu Zihang's eyes, and it was something he would never be able to learn.
But just because you can’t learn it doesn’t mean you can’t learn from it on the spot!
Lu Mingfei suddenly felt weightless. She opened her eyes. Chu Zihang had a stern face and stretched his arms straight. Other people's princess hugs might be intimate, soft and caring, but Chu Zihang's outstretched arms made people feel that he was a devout believer. The girl in his arms was going to offer a sacrifice to C'Thun with both hands. The scene was only missing a demon standing in front of her kneeling on one knee to make it complete.
“Brother, are you going to throw me out?” Lu Mingfei wiped her eyes. Things changed so suddenly that she almost couldn’t keep up and cry.
“……” Chu Zihang didn’t know how to answer. It was a good thing that Lu Mingfei stopped crying, but this question was too damaging. The words he had planned were suddenly shattered and his ability to organize language was basically lost.
Something seems wrong! This Caesar is different from the script he described. In Caesar's words, when he picks up a sad girl, she will definitely struggle hard, and he will use more force until the soft girl collapses in his arms, glaring but unable to escape his clutches. Then the opportunity comes, close your eyes and give a passionate kiss, and all the bad things will turn into a blessing of peach blossom love at this moment!
Do you want to kiss? Do you need to kiss? Should you really kiss? You should, right? Lu Mingfei still looked very angry and a little puzzled. In short, she was not as well-behaved as she had imagined.
Since he wanted to learn from Caesar, he should do it thoroughly. Chu Zihang finally made up his mind.
There is a big problem with the steely straight science guy, which is that when he decides to do something, he always completes it quickly without hesitation. This can be said to be an advantage, but it can also be a big disadvantage.
Chu Zihang quickly kissed Lu Mingfei on the face. His movements were as fast as a dragonfly flying over the water. In the blink of an eye, he was back to his original position, as if what had just happened had never happened.
Lu Mingfei was stunned, staring at Chu Zihang with wide eyes. It was not until three seconds later that she realized what had happened and quickly covered her face. The visible peach color crawled along her neck to her face, ears, and finally forehead. Her heartbeat was as strong and loud as a war drum, boom, boom, boom, every beat was as powerful and loud as if it would burst out of her heart.
What the hell, what's going on! The little girl in her heart was screaming and holding her head. Didn't I say I'm tired of love? What does a sneak attack and kiss mean? Is the heart of a pervert overflowing, and he can't help but want to take advantage of this beautiful girl who is so delicate and fragile? But Chu Zihang has plenty of opportunities. If he is really a pervert who has been hiding for many years, he would have had countless opportunities to take advantage of her in that Maybach, in that hotel, and at Xia Mi's house. He should have had a radical child. Why did he go crazy and reveal his true face today!
She was panting heavily. Each breath should have been the cold air of late autumn, but now it seemed that every breath was hot. It was clear that he didn't kiss her lips, but her face! But now she felt as if her whole body had become his, and even her breathing had the same calm and peaceful smell as him.
It's over. Did this guy hide some poison in his mouth? As long as you touch him lightly, the poison will be injected. No matter you are a sword fairy or a demon, you have to listen to him from now on... This must be the ability of a great demon who has practiced for twenty years, right?
"If I were just an ordinary person, I would have nodded at that moment." Chu Zihang's voice was calm. She couldn't see his expression, but she could imagine that this guy had a serious face, and his expressionless face when talking about love was like a teacher explaining sex enlightenment. "Love is the product of the accumulation of time. I haven't had many intersections with others in my life, but we should have had the most intersections in time. Many nights I would return to that viaduct in my dreams, with me, Dad, and you sitting in the Maybach. Maybe from the moment I invited you to hold an umbrella together, many things that happened later were destined. I have to admit that you are very special to me. If suddenly one day you are gone, many things in my life will disappear, and I will be the Chu Zihang who lives in his own world in the eyes of everyone, and it seems that I will never have any special intersection with other people."
He was breathing heavily, like an old monk in meditation, his eyes fixed. He couldn't see whether she was still angry or not, but he knew that she heard his every word clearly. She was the one who confessed first, but at this moment, he felt a little worried and afraid, afraid of a cold rejection.
"If one day in the future I kill Odin and come back alive... would you still be willing to say that to me?"
