C14 (2/2)
When An Xingchen heard this, her small white face immediately flushed red. Her fingers that hung by her side could not help but tightly pinch the hem of her clothes, ”Young Master Gong …. That. That's fine. Why did you send me flowers? ”
An Xingchen was frightened to the point that her entire body froze. She opened her eyes wide and looked at Gong Lingqian helplessly.
”For what?” Gong Lingqian said as he indistinctly stroked the delicate skin of An Xingchen's chin with his index finger. His lips curved upwards and he slowly opened his mouth: ”An Xingchen, I'm chasing after you.”
Hearing Gong Lingqian's words, An Xingchen was so shocked that her eyes grew even wider, as she looked at Gong Lingqian with a face full of disbelief.
In the morning, when she heard Gong Lingqian say that he wanted to marry her, she only thought that it was because Gong Lingqian was joking with her on a whim.
But from the looks of it, Gong Lingqian was not joking around.
An Xingchen's heart was instantly thrown into chaos.
Before she could regain her senses, she saw Gong Lingqian suddenly turn his head and close to her ear, as his deep and pleasant voice rang out: ”An Xingchen, do you know? The things that I, Gong Lingqian, want are always things that I have to obtain. ”
”You won't be able to run away either.”
An Xingchen's heart trembled when she heard this. She came back to her senses, bit her lips, and couldn't help but stutter out those words in response. ”Young Master Gong … I... The difference between us is too great … ”No, it's not appropriate …”
Hearing An Xingchen's crappy explanation, Gong Lingqian smiled, ”An Xingchen, it doesn't matter if you say it or not.”
Gong Lingqian's voice suddenly grew softer by the second, as his hoarse voice filled with a sense of ambiguity sounded in An Xingchen's ears: ”Besides, An Xingchen you're lying, it's obvious that it's suitable for the two of us to be together in bed.”
As soon as Gong Lingqian finished speaking, An Xingchen's small, fair face flushed red. Her mind was completely blank, her ears were filled with the sound of her heartbeat, which was fast and urgent.
An Xingchen also didn't know where she gained the courage from this. With a flushed face, she reached out and pushed Gong Lingqian away as she stammered, ”Young Master Gong … I still have things to do. ”I'll return first...”
Without waiting for Gong Lingqian's reply, he immediately left the office as if he was escaping.
Gong Lingqian looked at An Xingchen's departing back and was not anxious at all. Instead, he was determined to win with a smirk on his face. It's fine to run now, even if they were late, they would still be his people.
At the same time, on the other side, An Xingchen's mother received an unexpected call.
The call was from Seahold.
”Hello, Big Sister Hui Min? I'm Jingyun. ”
Yu Huimin heard the voice and a look of astonishment flashed across her eyes. When she regained her senses, she immediately laughed and said, ”Oh, it's Jingyun. We haven't contacted each other for many years. Is there something the matter? ”
”I specifically came to investigate the condition of An Xingchen's birth back then.”
”That man looks very well-dressed. It's obvious from one look that he isn't a simple person.” And he's been very generous. ”
”No, don't worry. I won't go out and blabber.”
