1164 I Want to Make You Stay 42 (2/2)
Xiao Chenyang grabbed her hand tightly and answered, ”Because I won't allow it. I'm not at all afraid that your feelings for him will grow stronger as your relationship progresses.”
”Why not?”
”Because you merely fancy him. It can't be called love at all.”
”How are you so sure?”
”Would you like me to verify it for you?” asked Xiao Chenyang, who inched closer toward her and blew some air onto her neck, causing her to cringe.
”How are you going to verify it?”
”Do you want to get intimate with him?”
”You're so lewd.”
”When you truly love someone, you'd definitely want to get intimate with them, regardless of whether you're a man or a woman. I can't tell that you actually want to get intimate with him. On the other hand, I wish I could make love with you every waking moment of my life.”
Fang Erlan blushed shyly and asked, ”Does that mean that you truly love me?”
”I've never denied the fact that I love you. If I don't, why would I put myself through so much misery for your sake? Or do my actions not speak enough for themselves?”
Dumbfounded, Fang Erlan said, ”I've always been wanting to ask you this. We've never met each other before in the past and I didn't know you at all. How did you fall in love with me? Did you really not get the wrong person?”
”We met a long, long time ago. You just forgot about it.”
Fang Erlan tried to recall everything that had happened.
A long, long time ago?
She could not remember ever seeing him before.
”When was that? I really can't remember. I don't recall it at all.”
Seeing how perplexed she was, Xiao Chenyang smiled and said, ”It's alright if you don't remember. What matters is that I do.”
Fang Erlan began to feel a little guilty upon hearing his answer. If we had really met each other before, why don't I remember anything? Or did I lose a part of my memory?
Like what always happens in television dramas.
Fang Erlan quickly asked, ”Did we only meet each other? Or were there further interactions?”
”Hmm…” He let go of her hand and placed his arms behind him. ”You really want to know?”
”Duh.”
”I'm not telling you.”
Extremely displeased, Fang Erlan finished her food, wiped her hands, and smacked him. ”Why are you acting like this? I'm starting to wonder if I had really lost a part of my memory. If I didn't, why can't I remember a thing about you at all?”
Xiao Chenyang smiled without answering her.
”Tell me, I'm getting so impatient!”
”I like seeing you being impatient.”
”…”
Fang Erlan turned around and ignored him.
He hugged her from behind and rested his chin on her shoulder before saying, ”One day, you'll find out everything. You'll also realize who the person who truly loves you is.”
Fang Erlan was filled with a mix of emotions. The more he acted that way, the more it proved that he was keeping secrets from her.

An Xiaoning received a shocking piece of news as soon as she woke up the next morning.
Yu Yiwei had passed away.
After breakfast, An Xiaoning brought No. 5 and No. 8 to the Autumn Palace.
Shi Qingzhou had gotten chubbier and appeared much more radiant.
She was as happy as a lark to see An Xiaoning. ”Xiaoning.”
”Mother, I came to B City to attend to something and I decided to come visit you and Father at the same time. Where's Father?”
”He's presently busy. Well… would you like to go see… Tuoba Rui?” Shi Qingzhou asked hesitantly.
