Chapter 201 - Ming’s Confession 3 (1/2)
That day when Ming Yue Guang had met Li Ming for the first time, the man was also in an emotional mess. Yue Guang did not have many people in his life whom he would say he was close with, much less someone he could share his everything with. That night, he had saved a total stranger who had listened to his story and he had realised how cute that stranger was.
That stranger had also just went through a terrible love confession and was emotional. Yet, at that point, when he was most vulnerable, Ming Yue Guang felt for the first time that he wanted to protect that stranger. It was a weird feeling considering how they had never met before until that night. However, that was what was running through his head at that time.
When he realised that Li Ming was actually a university student and studied in the same school as him, it gave Ming Yue Guang even more purpose to interact with him. And so, he did just that. This was the first time Ming Yue Guang had liked anyone before and so, all he knew what to do was to be by his side. To Yue Guang, Li Ming had the perfect amount of quirkiness and seriousness. He would only talk when he felt like it was needed. It was a very soothing atmosphere when they were together.
Five month into Ming Yue Guang's weird pursuit, the senior did not know exactly how he should confess to Li Ming. He had many opportunities to do so, but after all, it was his first time ever liking someone, much less a boy. He had search the internet, but most of the time, the situation was targetted at someone of the opposite s.e.x.
And so, Ming Yue Guang decided that after his debut match, he would confess to Ming that he liked him. Who knew that the plan was thrown straight out of the window when Li Ming had told him that he would be leaving the country in two days time. Ming Yue Guang was truly stumped at that point. He had been so dead set on confessing that when his plan had been ruined, he did not know how to function properly.
It was only when Li Ming initiated and confessed first, did Ming Yue Guang see light at the end of the tunnel. The boy broke out of his stupor and confessed too.
”I like you too. I have liked you ever since I had met you that very day on the bridge.” Ming Yue Guang spoke directly into Ming's ear.
”Huh? Yo..You do too?”
”Of course, I have liked you since I met you!”
”Wh..What?” Li Ming blushed at such a straightforward comment. Ming Yue Guang could not be bothered by secondhand embarrassment and just grinned brightly.
”Li Ming, thank you for liking me back.”
”Ah? thank you too?” What came next for the both of them was just painfully awkward. For the two Mings, this was the first time either of them had received a confession from anyone. They did not know what to do. Rather, they decided to walk it off as they headed down the familiar road that they had walked together before.
”You are fully certain that you going to Country U is the right thing?” Ming Yue Guang asked the question that was burning in him since they were at the stadium.
”Yes, I am certain.” Li Ming did not hesitate.
”How will our relationship work then?”
