20demayo Chapter 409 Confession
Chapter 409 Confession
Zhao Xiaolong's bold behavior surprised the people around him.
Su Yunjie's face was filled with surprise at first, but soon he started laughing.
Su Mengyao also heard some words from Su Yunjie. At this moment, Zhao Xiaolong's behavior seemed like a precursor to a confession, and Su Mengyao also had a playful look on her face.
Lu Ye didn't expect that Zhao Xiaolong, who had been holding it in for so long, suddenly got it today.
At the scene, only Shu Wen remained calm and composed, and her facial expression didn't even change much.
In fact, Shu Wen has encountered this kind of thing too many times.
Since she started high school, too many boys have confessed their love to her in various ways. Even when she went to Europe to attend university, there were still many so-called gentlemanly handsome men pursuing her.
Shu Wen couldn’t count on one hand the number of people who knelt down in public to express their love.
For her, Zhao Xiaolong's sudden request to talk alone could only be considered a relatively subtle little scene.
"Okay." Shu Wen agreed readily.
Zhao Xiaolong's face lit up with joy.
The two walked out of the crowd and headed straight to a corner of the hall.
Looking at the two people leaving, Su Yunjie smacked his lips and said with a hint of regret: "Poor Xiaolong."
"What do you mean?" Su Mengyao asked.
Su Yunjie shook his head and said with some regret: "I don't think Shu Wen will agree."
"You know it again. How come you have changed your career to become a matchmaker now? You know everything about who can get together and who can't." Su Mengyao curled her lips.
"If you don't believe me, just wait and see." Su Yunjie said in a low voice.
Lu Ye looked at the two people in the distance and felt that what Su Yunjie said made sense.
Shu Wen is a gifted girl, and although Zhao Xiaolong is very motivated, the gap between them in all aspects is too big.
Zhao Xiaolong and Shu Wen came to the corner, where there were not many people.
The hall was noisy, so what they said wouldn't be heard very far.
Looking at the stunning woman in front of him, Zhao Xiaolong silently encouraged himself.
"Shu Wen, actually... I... have always..."
Although Zhao Xiaolong had prepared himself mentally to not speak, when he really wanted to speak, his mouth still stuttered uncontrollably.
Facing Zhao Xiaolong, he hesitated and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Shu Wen directly broke through this layer of window paper.
"You mean to say that you've always liked me, right?"
Shu Wen's sudden words disrupted Zhao Xiaolong's thoughts and made him a little flustered.
"Yes."
"Shu Wen, I know I come from a humble background, have no education, and am average looking. I'm not worthy of you in any way, but I just like you. Can you... be my girlfriend?"
Zhao Xiaolong finally mustered up the courage to speak out what was suppressed in his heart.
However, after Zhao Xiaolong said this, he did not feel as relaxed as he had imagined.
When facing Shu Wen's gaze, he felt more nervous, tense and uneasy.
The complex feeling of wanting Shu Wen to agree but also being afraid of Shu Wen's rejection suppressed Zhao Xiaolong's heart.
Facing Zhao Xiaolong's confession, Shu Wen did not show any obvious change.
Still keeping a smile on his face.
"First of all, I'm very grateful for your love for me, but I'm sorry, in my heart, there's someone I like as well, so I hope you can understand that I can't accept you."
Shu Wen's words directly shattered all of Zhao Xiaolong's fantasies.
"Do you have someone you like?"
Although Zhao Xiaolong had already thought about the result of being rejected, he still felt a lump in his heart when he heard Shu Wen say this in person.
"Can I...can I know who you like?" Zhao Xiaolong asked softly.
"I don't want to lie to you, I like Lu Ye." Shu Wen blurted out Lu Ye's name without any concealment.
When Zhao Xiaolong heard these two words, his mind buzzed.
Recalling the scene where Shu Wen took care of Lu Ye in the hospital, everything seemed to make sense again.
"But..."
"But Brother Ye is already married, he has a wife!" Zhao Xiaolong said in confusion.
Shu Wen smiled slightly.
"I know he is married, and Su Mengyao is also very outstanding."
"But this has nothing to do with whether I like him or not. I have no plans to do anything with him, let alone destroy their marriage."
"In fact, liking someone doesn't necessarily mean you have to be with him. As long as he is in my heart and I think about him occasionally, that is also a kind of happiness."
“In this world, there is no one you must be with in order to complete your life.”
Shu Wen looked through the layers of people at Lu Ye in the distance, her eyes filled with sweetness and tenderness.
Zhao Xiaolong was completely stunned. Shu Wen's understanding of love was completely beyond Zhao Xiaolong's cognition.
He still couldn't understand.
Shu Wen retracted her gaze and looked at Zhao Xiaolong again.
"I'm telling you this because I hope you won't be delayed because of me. I believe you will definitely meet the most suitable girl. Maybe she is waiting for your unexpected encounter in some corner right now."
Zhao Xiaolong listened to Shu Wen's words with some numbness.
"Also, please keep my love for Lu Ye a secret. Don't tell anyone. Otherwise, if the news gets to them, it will likely have an impact on Lu Ye and Su Mengyao."
"Is it okay?" Shu Wen asked softly.
Hearing this, Zhao Xiaolong nodded: “Don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone.”
After receiving a positive answer, Shu Wen's face returned to smile again.
"Ticket checking is about to begin, let's go back."
Shu Wen shrugged and smiled at Zhao Xiaolong, then took the lead and walked back towards Lu Ye and the others.
At this moment, Zhao Xiaolong's mind was in turmoil.
His thoughts were in a mess, and many scenes appeared in fragments. He turned around numbly and walked back silently.
not far away.
When Su Yunjie saw Zhao Xiaolong's numb expression, he immediately understood that what he said must have come true.
"It's over. Looking at his expression, Xiaolong must have been rejected. I knew this would be the result."
Su Mengyao also noticed Zhao Xiaolong's depressed mood and said softly, "It's all because of your bad mouth."
Lu Ye sighed helplessly.
Fate often appears at the most inappropriate time and place, resulting in an unforgettable yet painful love story.
Perfect love does exist, but it cannot be forced.
At 10:00 AM, tickets for the bus to Flower City will begin to be checked. Passengers heading to Flower City, please proceed to Gate 3 to check in and board the bus.
Zhao Xiaolong and Shu Wen had just walked back when the loudspeaker in the waiting hall sounded the ticket check notice.
Hear the broadcast.
Zhao Xiaolong picked up his luggage.
"Brother Ye, let's go."
"Well, have a nice trip."
Lu Ye could see that Zhao Xiaolong was very sad at the moment, but who could really empathize with him when it came to emotional matters?
He reached out and patted Zhao Xiaolong's arm twice to encourage him.
