Chapter 809 - I Had Been Unable To Forget You All This While (2/2)

“Because, there is someone living inside my heart, and I am unable to forget that person at all.” Ye Ziyi had a hot gaze as he looked over at her.

Leng Zhiyuan became silent. She was not slow to understand. Ye Ziyi hinted at her numerous times tonight and even used that kind of…smitten gaze to look at her.

He liked her?

“Zhiyuan, how about you? Didn’t you already get married? Major General Zhou did not accompany you today?”

Leng Zhiyuan tugged on the corners of her lips as she said, “He is probably…busy right now.”

“This is Major General Zhou’s mistake. It is Valentine’s Day today. It is already so late at night. What could be more urgent than accompanying his own wife? If a man likes a woman, he would definitely make the effort.”

Leng Zhiyuan’s heart felt that it was attacked by bees. That was right. What was she still hoping for? He’d disappointed her time and time again, and furthermore, there was Han Xuan by his side whom he was unable to shake off.

Why did she become so weak? Was this still her? Was she still Leng Zhiyuan?

Leng Zhiyuan shook her head. She took a deep breath of air. Okay then. From now onwards, she had to forget about Zhou Yao and not be affected by him anymore, and she’d just ignore him all the way to the end!

“Zhiyuan, there is a cable car there. Let’s go and take it together.” Ye Ziyi stretched his finger out to point to the cable car in mid air in the distance.

“Okay.”

…

They sat inside the cable car. Leng Zhiyuan perched herself by the window to look at the dark blue sky. The sky filled with stars, and they were shining extremely brightly.

“Zhiyuan, do you still remember back when we were in middle school? At that time, I lived beside you. Every morning when I played the piano, I would always see a girl’s shadow by the French windows by my side, and she would be staring at me.”

Upon bringing this up, Leng Zhiyuan’s small face quickly turned red. She was extremely embarrassed as she said, “That… When you play the piano…you look very handsome. I looked on for a long time… At that time, didn’t I look very ugly?”

“How could that be?”

“At that time, I was just like a boy. I did not like to make friends, and I did not like to wear skirts…”

“Yeah, compared to those girls who were chasing me, they would all have long flowy hair and would be shy and gentle in their actions. You really did not seem like a girl.” Ye Ziyi nodded his head as he recounted the past.

This made Leng Zhiyuan want to dig a hole to hide herself in.

“But, these years have passed, and I only remember one person. She would stand outside the French widows to look at me, and she would always appear in my dreams.”

Leng Zhiyuan froze.

At this moment, the cable car shook. It was as if it was about to derail. She wanted to stand up to have a look at what was happening, but there was a warmth by her side, and it turned out that Ye Ziyi had come over from the seat opposite to her side. He stretched his right arm out to hold onto her soft waist and comforted her gently as he said, “Don’t be afraid. Nothing is wrong. I am here.”

Leng Zhiyuan:…

She was not afraid.

An unfamiliar masculine scent came into her nostrils. It made her entire body feel uncomfortable. She wanted to move, but at this moment, she heard Ye Ziyi say by the side of her ear, “Zhiyuan, I like you.”

Leng Zhiyuan’s heart leaped. Although she was not vain, all sorts of hints from him were enough to show that he liked her, and now, he’d finally said these words aloud.

She turned her head back to look at him.

Ye Ziyi stretched his left hand out to touch her hair, and he softly repeated, “Zhiyuan, throughout these years, I’ve always been unable to forget you. I’ve liked you for many years now.”
